“A contract?”
Minho asked with a confused look .
“Writer Ha, have you… made management company?”
“No, I have no skill to do such a thing . ”
“But then…?”
“It’s a contract with me . ”
Jaegun answered while putting Rika on the ground .
Looking at Rika who was walking to the window, he continued .
“I want to help you so you can make better s . ”
“Of, of course . I do, but you’re so busy that how could I ask for help…”
“No . ”
Jaegun cut him off .
“It’s a contract . With me helping you write better, I have a condition . ”
“Condition?”
“Do you know Laugh Books?”
“No, I’ve never heard of it . ”
“It’s a very new management . There’s only one project it’s servicing as well . And the condition is that you contract with Laugh Books . ”
“Ah… yes . ”
Minho answered awkwardly .
He wondered why Jaegun would want to him to join Laugh Books .
There was risk in signing with a new management with only one project . It would be hard to give something that he put in a lot of work to a new management that is yet tested . ,
Jaegun answered first .
“Laugh Books is a management that the editor I admire the most created after he resigned in a company . I’ve gotten help from him and I still do . This is going to be a good thing for both you and Laugh Books . ”
“Ahah, yes… hm? Then, does that mean?!”
Minho was nodding as he understood . He lifted his head in surprise .
“Then is the one project… the Breathe?”
“Yes . ”
Jaegun answered embarrassingly .
Then Minho opened his mouth .
Then, 3 seconds later .
He nodded crazily and answered .
“I’ll do it . I’ll do the contract . ”

“You don’t have to decide now . The contract is…”
“No, it’s fine . I know I’ll do fine . It’s amazing that I’m just eating with Writer Ha . ”
Minho was being truthful and not just overreacting .
His trusted in the management that contracted the Breathe . It had given him unlimited faith, .
Jaegun added .
“The representative is great too . You won’t have any regrets . ”
“Of course . I know . I trust you . No, I don’t even have to say trust . I will follow you no matter what . ”
“Ring!
The doorbell rang .
“Ah, I think the food came . ”
Minho quickly ran out to the door .
It was the delivery man .
“This is the right place, right?”
“Yes, right . 9 dollars and 50 cents?”
Minho froze when he checked his wallet . He had no money .
He asked while pulling out a credit card .
“Does this work?”
“You should have said it earlier . I didn’t bring the swiper . ”
“Uh, I forgot I had no cash…”
“Well bring it when you order later or when I come back . It’s not once or twice you ordered . ”
The man said nicely and turned around .
As he was about to leave, Jaegun was holding out the money .
“Here it is . ”
“Ah, yes, thank you . Here’s the change . ”
The man went out .
Minho was so embarrassed and put his head down to Jaegun .
“I’m really sorry . I forget to get money . I’ll return it when my brother comes . ”
“No, it’s fine . Think of it as a contract money . ”
“Yes?”
“You contracted with me . I’m trying to count that money as your contract money . ”
“Hahahah…”
“Let’s eat . It’s going to cool . ”
“Yes, writer . ”
The two people started to eat .
Jaegun started to eat quickly as he was hungry . Minho was eating slowly .

“Uh, Writer Ha?”
Jaegun already finished and was cleaning his lips with a tissue .
As he looked at Minho’s bowl, it was barely half eaten .
“Say it . ”
“I’m not sure what to say but…”
Minho continued after a pause .
“I know you want to help the Laugh Book’s representative . But why me… there’s so many writers better than me . Do you think I have potential?”
Then, Jaegun finally understood .
This Minho didn’t have confidence . He was afraid that his work would harm someone instead of sell .
“There’s definitely potential . ”
Jaegun answered with focus .
“I said earlier at the writer’s meeting . I finished your previous series . You write well . You have the basics . But…”
Jaegun went to get some water .
He continued to the nervous Minho .
“My opinion is that you don’t have a great end . The story falls apart at the end . It was a shame at the weak ending . ”
“Hm… I do get criticized for that a lot . I think that, too . ”
“If you change that, I believe you will have a great career . I will help you . ”
“Yes…”
Minho answered and put his head down .
Jaegun’s words were making him feel emotional . There were few people in his entire writer’s life who had said something so nice .
“It was luck that I was at that writer’s meeting . ”
Minho muttered . He could see the writer’s meeting in front of him .
It was a meeting that he had swallowed his pride to go to . He wanted to meet writers, get opinions and advice, and become a better writer .
And then he met Jaegun there .
And now it came here . To Minho, that was one of the best things that had happened all year .
“I will try my hardest . ”
Minho answered with determination .
He had no shame in learning from a younger writer like Jaegun . He was 34, 7 years younger than Jaegun . Learning had no age, he thought .
“I understood the difference while reading your comments . I want to learn more . ”
“You’re lifting me up too much . Hm… then I want to see what the story will be after book 2 . ”
“Ah, yes . I’ll show you . Come over here . ”
Jaegun read the outline of The King Fallen on Earth very carefully . And he commented on the parts that he disliked a bit .
Minho memoed diligently .
“…I think this is good . You’re good at writing . Just don’t make a story like that . I think you should write like book 1 . ”
“Wow, since you said that, I just have so much confidence now . I’m going to have to start writing after my job . ”

“Job?”
“Ah, yes . I have a part time job at a nearby convenience store . I need to earn my living fees . ”
Minho bitterly smiled and scratched his cheek .
He had to do anything to earn a living .
Jaegun smiled faded as he recalled his life .
“I worked at a convenience store just last year too . ”
“…!”
Minho looked at Jaegun in disbelief .
“Really? No, but you have previous sellers than the Breathe?”
“All of them came out this year . I had trouble last year . I couldn’t even take a hot shower to save money . ”
“Ah, I didn’t know . ”
Jaegun turned his glance to the monitor .
He said as he looked at the outline of Minho’s story .
“You will be able to stop your job as well . Write with confidence . You’ll do well . ”
“Thank you . I will write hard . ”
Jaegun stood up and took his coat .
Rika sitting on the window edge saw him and jumped off .
“Are you leaving?”
“I should . Send me Book 2 when you’re done . ”
Jaegun went to the door .
Minho went out first and opened the door .
“Don’t come out please . ”
“It’s up there anyway . ”
Jaegun said goodbye to Minho, who went out to greet him out, and got in the car .
The car slowly marched forward .
Minho was staring the car . To that, a teenager came behind him .
“Who is that?”
“Ah, don’t surprise me . I told you not to come up behind me . ”
It was his brother living in the same office .
“Who is that? Is there a person who would come with a car to our office?”
“A writer . ”
“Writer? Who?”
“If I say it, you’re gonna die . An amazing writer . ”
His brother laughed at that .
“Oh really? What kind of a great writer? I guess Pyung Cheon Yu, the writer who wrote the Breathe, came over?”
“Hahahahaha . ”
Minho looked up at the sky and laughed loudly
His brother, who thought Minho was laughing at his joke, also started to laugh .
The sky was looking very bright .
