Chapter 35
Three days had passed.
There hadnt been any significant changes in their daily life. They still woke up, had meals, and washed themselves just as before. They spent time in the living room and then had another meal before going to sleep.
The routine continued without deviation. However, if one asked if nothing had changed at all, that wasnt entirely true.
Dokyun lowered his head and looked at Eun-ah, who was nestled in his arms.
Tap. Tap. Tap
The back of Eun-ahs head was moving up and down as she was typing on her laptop. Since yesterday, she had started working on her manuscript again.
Without saying a word she continued to concentrate. She was clearly different from before.
Its fascinating.
Dokyun, having lived as a reader and always seen the finished results, so the process of creating a novel like this came to him as incredibly intriguing.
The process of combining letters to form words, words into sentences, and sentences into paragraphs continued.
Her slender fingers danced across the keyboard, then paused to erase the previous sentence before overlaying it with a new one.
Black letters swiftly arranged themselves on the blank white page.
Her typing speed was remarkably fast. Dokyun wasnt sure if all writers were like that, but he believed that she had a tendency to write quickly.
He estimated that the number of pages she had turned had reached approximately 12 pages.
Dokyun didnt know if it was because she was concentrating on the writing process, or if it was because she really writes quickly, but it was so fast that he thought she was already finished writing?
Suddenly, Dokyun wondered what was happening inside this womans mind.
He vaguely remembered hearing that writing a novel meant translating the scenery in ones mind into sentences.
He became curious about what kind of scenery existed in her mind, something so concrete and vivid that she could write without any obstacles. He was curious about her.
No, could she really be that talented?
He thought it was plausible enough. Her writing gave off a strong impression of being complete from the beginning.
In addition, the glimpses of her childhood he saw in the diary from the study added credibility to his hypothesis.
Dokyun recalled the contents of the diary.
[Today, I learn about classical humanities]
[Today, I read philosophical books]
He didnt know what factors her mother considered important in her education.
However, Dokyun thought that her mothers upbringing had played a significant role in shaping the way she wrote.
While the thoughts continued, before he knew it, she finished her manuscript and turned to him.
D-Done!
Her face, as she glanced up, was bright. Dokyun, filled with anticipation, looked into her eyes and lightly stroked her round forehead as a mischievous smile escaped.
Good job.
Hehe
It was a laugh he hate to hear, but her head was leaning against his chest and she was just laughing.
Even though she seemed to be quite smart, her actions seemed so childish that Dokyun felt a sense of contradiction.
Come to think of it
What he learned from observing her was that she was on medication. Twice a day after meals, morning and evening, she swallowed a few pills with water.
He didnt know what medication it was, but he speculated that it might be psychiatric medication.
What kind of disease is it
Dokyun hadnt thought deeply about it, but it seemed certain that she had a mental illness. However, due to his limited knowledge in that area, it was difficult to determine the specific condition she was suffering from through her behavior alone.
Judging by occasional words and actions, he speculated it could be an impulsive disorder or delusional disorder, but he couldnt assertively confirm it.
While the thoughts were going on, she shifted her position, removed the laptop that was resting on his thigh, and turned to cuddle up to him.
Again, do it again
It seemed like she was asking for more praise.
Dokyun gently patted her back in response to her request and continued to stroke her head while speaking.
You did well. As expected of a writer, your focused appearance is really impressive.Follow current novels at novelhall.com)
Hehe
Ooh!
Answer me?
yes
She pouted again.
He was disgusted by her protruding lips, so when he poked his finger over it, she immediately bit off his finger.
Ah.
She lightly bit his index finger with her front teeth and looked up at him. After her eyes slightly fold, mischief appeared on her face, and then
Lick.
He could feel her tongue passing through the tip of his index finger.
Snap!
Feeling the damp sensation on his finger, he quickly withdrew it and glared at her. She had one corner of her mouth raised in a sneaky smile.
Did she think she had won? Dokyun didnt like the triumphant expression on her face, so he gently tapped her head.
Eek!
She tightly closed her eyes and let out a strange moan.
Stop being so dramatic.
He lightly tapped her forehead, but even that seemed to make her angry. But with a pouty face, she tapped her own forehead and opened her mouth.
Tte, tteok!
Perhaps she wanted to make a stern-looking expression on her own, she slightly hardened her face, but the slightly heated blush and twitching corners of her lips were so sloppy that they didnt look stern at all.
What is tteok?
Even thinking about it, Dokyun couldnt stop laughing.
Puff
As she looked at Dokyun, she didnt get the reaction she expected she seemed frustrated as her face became uneven.
Her face was funny, so Dokyun thought to keep an eye on her, but when he gave her a hug and patted her back. As her mood lightened, she started laughing.
Hey
Oh, Im really going crazy.
I have to act
His emotions were gradually becoming mixed. His heart was racing again. It felt like he might have an arrhythmia.
Yes, it was arrhythmia. The last time Dokyun had a health checkup was around three years ago, so it must have developed during that time.
It must have been caused by smoking too much. Day in and day out, drinking coffee, living alone, and indulging in alcohol must have led to this condition.
It would not be the warmth he felt in her arms, but the throbbing sensation caused by abnormalities in his body.
Hey, Mr. Bee
Their eyes met. Her eyes, looking up at him, were so clear that he could see himself reflected in them.
Yes.
N-now, lets have a meal
Ah.
It was a moment when his mind suddenly cleared.
Ah, yes. meal.
Yeah Lets go now
The strength in his arms weakened. As she slipped away from his loose embrace, he felt a sense of emptiness.
It wasnt hunger that caused it, but the void left by the disappearing warmth.
His rationality twisted a little.
It just twisted.
The warmth that was swirling around him a moment ago felt like a dream, and he felt hazy and comfortable. He didnt want to wake up, so his rationality simply writhed as if murmuring in his sleep.
