Chapter 223

If I can’t debut, I’ll get a fatal disease Episode 223

It’s as quiet as a dead mouse in the car.

No, sometimes I could only hear Raebin Kim whimper.

Even those who would normally have comforted me by saying something like, “You’ll be fine,” drove silently or patted me on the back.

Because comfort was more anxious.

“Your brother. ... Yes, you should come ‘this morning’. We are on the move right now, so please wait nearby as soon as possible.”

After talking to the manager who was barely connected, I hung up the phone.

Now ‘this dawn?’ Are you going to say the same thing? You have a moment to claim your work-life balance, you crazy bastard.

“... ... .”

What are you doing after that?

I couldn’t do anything like X.

And then I’m just thinking.

From here to Gangwon-do, where Kim Rae-bin’s birthplace is located, it would take more than three hours no matter what he did.

‘In case of emergency, it may be late.’

... But let’s imagine what it would have been like if we had started straight from Seoul, as we usually do right before our vacation.

That time would have been shortened by more than an hour and a half.

difference of an hour and a half.

that calculation... I can’t help but do it.

‘X feet.’

Because the guy sitting in front of me will be thinking the same thing.

Kim Rae-bin is still unable to let go of his smartphone. Unconsciously, he is afraid of waiting for another call to come.

At the same time, he couldn’t bear to call back first... .

“... ... .”

out of breath

‘stop.’

It was funny. I’m not the person involved, and I’m not in a situation where I can help, but I’ve been immersed in myself for no reason.

I laughed at myself, put my head against the window, and decided to keep my mouth shut.

It didn’t seem to bother me at all.

After about three hours of fainting in the car.

I had just passed the final highway toll gate to my destination. Ryu Cheng-wu opened his mouth in the most calm tone.

“I’ll be there in thirty minutes.”

“... ... .”

Bae Se-jin struggled to talk to Kim Rae-bin.

“... Change your clothes.”

“... ... .”

Kim Rae-bin, who had been stiff from tension and worry for too long, slowly began to change his top.

The clothes, which were already about to dry, fell under the sheets and the salt content dropped.

And Kim Rae-bin, who was wearing new clothes, stopped moving as if he was crazy, and soon began to shed tears.

“I am... Because he asked me to go to MT... ... late.”

“no.”

I answered involuntarily. without thinking.

So, in fact, I had to come up with a plausible reason from now on, but there was no time to add an explanation.

Because there was someone who intervened.

“that’s right! It’s because of me.”

“... ... !”

“I said let’s go first. It’s not Kim Rae-bin’s fault!”

Cha Yu-jin spoke quite vigorously, but she herself looked like she was about to cry.

Kim Rae-bin let out a hoarse voice.

“Oh no! MT was planned together with... ... Now, the place is also me... .”

“Think about it later.”

I cut him off.

“Think about it later and see Grandma now.”

“... ... .”

Kim Rae-bin barely nodded.

You shouldn’t make me think about it now. this is correct

empirically.

Soon the car’s navigation system stopped giving guidance.

“let’s go.”

“... yes.”

So, Kim Rae-bin stumbled and got out of the car and headed to the hospital.

The rest followed as far as they could accompany them.

It meant sitting on a waiting chair by the hallway of the hospital room and waiting for Kim Rae-bin to come out.

“... ... .”

“Oh, my mother... .”

In front of the hospital room, people who seemed to be relatives and medical staff came and went, but of course we pretended not to know or talked to each other and sat together.

Fortunately, the atmosphere... It didn’t seem too late.

I don’t know if I can call this fortunate.

It was around the time that the twilight sun was shining outside the window.

“It’s Moondae.”

“... ... .”

“Park Moon-dae, why don’t you go to the car and lie down?”

“It’s not me, it’s Ryu Chung-woo... My brother will go.”

Does it make sense that the person who didn’t sleep all morning and drove was still awake.

It was moral for him to go to bed.

However, Liu Chengwu shook his head.

“I’m not that tired.”

“yes. So do i.”

“... ... .”

The short conversation ended there. The members no longer talked about taking a break and waited more quietly.

“yes... ?”

“You know, the vacation ends for today.”

I put the spoon in the bowl.

“I have to return sometime tomorrow morning.”

“... !!”

“Is it okay if I go back to Seoul... You should think about it.”

... If you return to your activities and are in Seoul, you may not be able to stay on your deathbed if the progress of your grandmother’s surgery suddenly deteriorates.

I remembered the conversation I had with Kim Rae-bin when my grandmother collapsed for the first time at the beginning of my debut.

-In that case... While I was filming during the performance... Is it right to stop and go? But then... It sounds like you lack professional skills.

Is it family or work?

It’s that damned-alternative moment.

It’s not just a moment, but thinking about the whole 4 weeks to see the progress of the surgery.

‘The situation is like garbage.’

Of course, it was like that then, but what to say has been decided.

“I’ll tell you in advance, but it’s okay if you don’t come back for a while. It’s all about living well, but there’s no need to suffer.”

“... that’s right. are you okay!”

“Don’t worry, the company’s persuasion will come together.”

Cha Yoo-jin seems to know how to shoot support. You’ve been good at grasping the atmosphere these past few days.

And in fact, at this point, I thought Raebin Kim would close his eyes tightly and shout ‘I’m really sorry, but I’ll do it’.

But no.

“that... It would be painful to do so... ... .”

“... ... !”

“It’s an important full-length album, but I haven’t finished a single song yet... A title is also in the works... .”

Of course, Kim Rae-bin also had a dream and a sense of responsibility.

“The music video, the choreography, the stage... Oh, I can’t contribute anything.”

Raebin Kim was even a member in charge of producing. So, it was also the musicality itself of the group called Testa.

Kim Rae-bin was quick to realize that if he completely fell in, the group identity would be damaged.

“If Grandma doesn’t die and recovers... It’s not what I did, that’s what I wanted.”

“Yes, I understand.”

I stopped talking to him.

That’s right. If Grandma recovers without any problems, Kim Rae-bin might regret that he rested for nothing.

And you will be disillusioned with yourself who regret it.

‘... Am I biased?’

I was a bit mistaken because it overlapped too much with my past situation.

I tapped the table with my fingers.

‘The best thing to do is to delay the release of the album for a month or two.’

But this troubled me.

If this happens, the tour schedule may be distorted, and then there may be a problem with clearing abnormal conditions.

‘I’ll turn around.’

It was then.

“Do both!”

“... !!”

Cha Yoo-jin shouted.

“We have a lot of good ways! phone and... mother.”

“Do it in english.”

[right! I speak English, right?]

Yujin Cha knocked on the table with her eyes shining.

[It’s an era where you can have mail, video calls, and even video chat! Raebin Kim tells me to work on a song here! And we prepare other elements!]

“... ... !”

Surprisingly reasonable. I immediately opened my mouth.

“Cha Yoo-jin told me to work from home remotely while working on a song here.”

“Are you working from home?”

“It sounds good to me.”

As expected, Kim Rae-bin’s complexion instantly improved.

“Even I hear it! Then, other than the song... .”

I clasped my hands together.

The hair started to roll smoothly within a few days.

“Don’t do this. The choreography will make two versions just in case. The version without you.”

“yes??”

“great!”

“And in the same way, for filming, we select our individual cuts and groups, and set the four individual shooting dates separately as much as possible.”

“Oh!”

“As much as possible, I’m putting back the time you joined, and I’m also completing a version in case you couldn’t join.”

Kim Rae-bin opened his mouth wide.

“... ... I’m sorry.”

“What are you sorry about? It’s just that the later you join, the harder it gets for you alone.”

I asked.

“Are you going to do it anyway?”

“... yes!”

good.

Kim Rae-bin nodded eagerly.

Still, he looked quite courageous, and soon began rubbing his eyes.

There must have been something uplifting for various reasons.

“Okay, let’s do as much as we can.”

“yes... ... .”

I added a comment.

“And you can quit halfway if it doesn’t work.”

“That’s right! It’s not Kim Rae-bin’s fault.”

That’s right.

That’s how the 4 weeks of trying to catch both work and family rabbits began.
