Chapter 357 Cha Jeong-woo (3)
Team: HH, Yahiko, thursdays (2/10)
That instant, light exploded.
Countless letters scattered and wrapped around the world of Yeon-woo and Jeong-woo.
Hwaak!
lightsvel * * *
Beep.
Beep beep.
I was extrely dizzy.
I didnt even drink, but why was I so dizzy?bender
Drink?
Wait. Did I ever drink before? I did secretly buy a bottle of soju with Hyung on my last birthday, but that was it. Since he said he didnt like it, I never drank more after that sip.
No.
Ive drunk all night with Valdebich before.
We learned that Henova was fernting beer in the alcohol cellar and snuck in secretly at night. It was so good that we ended up emptying five oak barrels.
Although, we ended up getting beat up by Henovas pipe because we passed out there.
Still, it was worth it. Ah, Im drooling just thinking about it now. Is there any way I can get it again? It seed like Henova was secretly fernting it sowhere else. Should I take a look around?
But wait.
Henova? Who is that?
Thoughts that I couldnt make sense of filled my head.
Did I have a strange dream?
Unfamiliar nas appeared and disappeared in my head. So did multiple mories. There were so holes in them, and they were so completely dismbered that it was hard to tell what they were about, but they felt vivid like they happened yesterday.
I was glad, happy, anxious, depressed, sad, and grim at the end.. like I saw a sad movie.
But the jumbled mories quickly scattered, like how dreams suddenly vanished when you wake up. All the scenes were swept away like sandcastles on the beach.
..What is this?
I rubbed my temples, opening my eyes. I could see a neat desk and books stained with spit. There was a notebook with a pen lying next to it. I guess I fell asleep while I had been studying all night.
What were all those mories?
They felt important, but I couldnt rember what they were no matter how hard I tried. I frowned, trying to rember them again sohow.
Beep. Beep.
My alarm clock rang noisily, pulling back to reality. The headache that was pushing against my head disappeared like it was never there.
No.
I didnt even recognize it was gone.
07:32
S***.
School began at 8.
I was late.
The strange mories were already gone from my head.
* * *
Whew! I barely made it.
Dang, what? You made it?
Of course. Hehe, who do you think I am?
D***. Theyre directly discriminating against us now. Its a sad world to live in for people who cant study.
The high school classroom was bustling today, too, because it was an all-boys school filled with gross, sweaty guys.
Rumble. They mustve been playing a ga of piling up on each other or sothing sowhere because so chubby dude slipped on the floor.
The desks and chairs around him fell down like dominos.
The kids whose books and snacks fell to the ground cursed as they stepped on the chubby guy.
It was a nest full of beasts and confusion.
S***.
I didnt know I would co back here. Still, I had been a bit glad to co back here since it had been a while, but it felt like all those feelings vanished at once. What should I do about these heated beast bastards?
Huh?
It had been a while?
I ca here in the classroom yesterday, but what was I thinking? I pressed my temples again and got rid of the strange feelings I had. This was all because of my headache this morning.
Whats wrong? Does your head hurt?
My friend asked with a concerned face. He had been joking around just a mont ago. We beca close because we were in the sa class in freshman year. His na was.. huh? What was his na again?
Do you wanna go to the nurse..?
Im fine. Good. And dont tell Hyung. Hes gonna nag again.
I waved my hand.
I was sick frequently since I was young and suffered from colds all the ti.
Now, I was better and only got headaches, but I was still careful because of my genetic susceptibility.
Mom was often sick, too. Doctors said the symptoms we had were hard to diagnose with modern dicine. They said it should be reported to the field or sothing? Thankfully, we were able to use that for my moms hospital bills, but it was still a horrendous disease.
But I think you should tell Yeon-woo..
Its fine. I know my body best. I can just endure it for a bit and Ill be good. Also, if I bring the guy whos probably getting beat up in front of the school gates, Ill be the bad guy.
Unlike , who was weak to no end, Hyung was super healthy. Even though we were identical twins, he didnt suffer from any of the rare symptoms and was athletic. He also got into fights all the ti. Thanks to that, he was marked as a problem child by teachers and was corporally punished by them.
He was so different from , who was classified as a model student, so he was pretty famous in our school.
Even though I had rushed over, I was 10 minutes late, but teachers let off the took.
My brother, who had arrived 5 minutes later than , was rcilessly beaten with a stick in front of the school by the dean of students.
He was probably grinding his teeth while getting furiously beat up right now.
I snuck out of the house this morning even though I knew we were late.
Today, I planned on avoiding him.
He shouldnt have eaten my mango jellies in the refrigerator without my permission.
I felt refreshed after taking revenge.
Well, it was a bit cowardly, but there was nothing else I could do.
I couldnt defeat him with strength, so this was my only option.
Then thats a relief. Anyways, if you cant hang in there, tell right away. Dont just faint like last ti. F***. The back of my head was hit my Yeon-woo so many tis that its flat now.
My friend grumbled as he shook his head. Right, he was also a victim of my brothers temper.
It was pitiful.
I should be nicer to him.
Our Hyung is a bit like that, hm?
You brothers are the sa.
I frowned at what he said.
I was still better than my brother.
No. I couldnt even be compared to him.
How could he compare to that schizophrenic?
The older one beats people up when hes bored, and the younger one mocks people with his mouth. Whats the difference?
Looks? Dont I have better looks?
I was soone who received confessions from girls although I went to an all-boys high school, sucker.
This son of a..! Argh! Lets just not.
My friend sighed. Just then, the bell for first period rang.
Although he always complained, he was a gracious guy who took care of us brothers the best.
A tsundere.
He was like Henova.
..Henova? Another strange na popped in my head. It seed like a na I missed. I didnt rember anything at all. Why? Was it the na of so philosopher?
I thought to myself, looking at my friend who was returning to his seat.
But really, what was his na again?
* * *
[Our poor schizo] Hey, you son of a b****. Youre dead. Really.
[] Hmmm?
[Our poor schizo] Would it hurt you to wake up?
[] Huh?
[Our poor schizo] The f***.
[]
[Our poor schizo] Shut up. Before you get f***ed over.
[]
[Our poor schizo] I told you to stop sending weird stuff.
[] (cat emoticon with desperate eyes and paws gathered)
[Our poor schizo] Ill really teach you what happens if you ss with .
[] Huuuuuh?
[Our poor schizo] AHHHHHH%[email protected]#[email protected]#
Geez. He really cant argue for the life of him.
I grinned, looking at the curse-filled ssages. Seeing as how the ssages kept on scrolling up, he seed pretty mad. He was probably super frustrated because the ssages were marked as read but there was no response.
Ahhhham.
Class was so boring that I yawned.
As seniors, we knew everything that was being taught. Classes were only conducted for grades, and with the college entrance exams coming up, most of us just used class ti to study.
Teachers didnt say anything about students who were solving problems from prep books on their own.
I could get away with using my phone. Of course, if the teacher noticed on my phone too much, he would take it away, but if I apologized, he would just give it back.
This was why the reputation of a model student was important. I was already learning how to act in society.
I thought about getting a prep book out to study like my other classmates, but strangely, I didnt feel like it.
Ive felt like this since the morning.
Like I was missing sothing.
What was I missing? It seed important..
No matter how much I revisited my mories, I couldnt rember anything.
I was sitting blankly at my desk with my phone all day.
I felt strange, and I studied a lot until now, so I thought a day of slacking off wouldnt hurt.
Of course, after lunch, I planned on clearing my head and holding my pen again.
Urrng, urrg
Just then, the phone in my hand suddenly vibrated. I was just about to download a ga.
(Ad) You can make a wish if you reach the end of the Obelisk.
Would you like to participate?
YES or No?
This again.
It was the spam ssage that I got everyday.
It was annoying because I blocked it, but it ca back with another number. Now, it was almost interesting how I got the sa ssage with the sa information and the sa ti for about a month.
Obelisk.
A monunt to worship a god or mark the history of a victory.
However, here, it seed like it was talking about a tower.
A standard ga ad.
The problem was that where it said Yes or No, there was no ad link.
There wasnt any button to download the ga even if I wanted to. Did they want to play or not?
I didnt know what the ssage wanted to do.
Urrng, urrrng
My phone vibrated again. It was another text. After seeing the sender, my face stiffened.
Father
I deleted the ssage right away without reading it. It was obvious what it would be about. The day Hyung found out I was in contact with this person.. bad things would happen.
There was a big difference between my brother being jokingly mad and really mad.
He was so cold that he felt like another person. And it was clear what would happen after that. I didnt want to see it.
Was there really nothing to do?
I scanned through social dia, and after that, I really didnt have anything to do.
I still felt strange, but it was better than this morning, so I put my phone down and lifted my pen again.
No matter what I did, I still had to study.
I couldnt give up my grades or the college entrance exams. Getting into a prestigious college with a four-year scholarship. Then, joining a munitions company instead of doing the regular soldier duties to earn so money for my family and imdiately working at a big company after that.
It was the future I dread of. Taking care of my sick mother and creating a family was my dream. There was no ti for rest.
I was about to go through my prep book when my phone vibrated again.
I thought it was a ssage again, so I was about to turn it off, but it was a call.
The mont I saw the sender, my heart skipped a beat.
Hospital
* * *
It happened suddenly while she was getting better haaa. Since the urgent issue was taken care of now, lets watch her and see what happens.
After the physician left, I looked at my mom blankly.
Beep
Beep
She was breathing through an oxygen mask. No one would be able to believe that she had been joking with us yesterday. She didnt look good at all.
Ill be back after so fresh air.
I didnt listen to my brothers response and left the hospital room with wobbly steps.
I felt like all the energy left my body. Why did I feel so dizzy since this morning?
Urrng, urrng
Just then, my back pocket vibrated. I blankly pulled out my phone.
(Ad) You can make a wish if you reach the end of the Obelisk.
Would you like to participate?
YES or NO?
Even though it was a spam ssage I saw all the ti, it was particularly conspicuous because it ca at a different ti.
One word stood out the most.
Wish.
It would be nice if it wasnt just a ga ad and was sothing that appeared in movies or novels.
If I could really make a wish and heal my mothers mysterious disease, I would want nothing more.
I tapped the screen, trying to calm down.
Just then, the Yes or No section turned blue. There was a link connected to him.
I found myself clicking the yes button.
Note: Thanks everyone for your patience till now. according to current situation HH will be able to return back to translating in a week so probably by next week we will be back to normal.
