80 – [2] Christmas Eve

#080

* * *

Snowy Christmas Eve!

If you took your friend out on a day like that, there was only one thing to do.

“Let’s see, where we were going today… … At the cinema, at the PC room, at the arcade… … .”

“Nartica headquarters.”

“Yeah, I was going to go there too. Then I was going to your house.”

just play

He looked like a student with all the exams gone.

Naturally, it didn’t feel very foreign and unusual.

It was so familiar and consistent.

However, it wasn’t just about playing.

Rather, it was repetitive in and of itself to spend this kind of time with Cheonmae.

“By the way, how many years has it been since we’ve been together on eves like this?”

“Because we spent Christmas Eve together since 4th grade… … .”

It has already been 9 years this year.

It was a time when we couldn’t get used to it and it was natural to play together.

“It’s been 9 years since my life was f*cked up? Crazy.”

“That’s what I want to say, man.”

It’s been 9 years since I spent Christmas Eve with a regressor.

It would be really surprising if days like this continued after entering the academy.

That, of course, would be surprising in a bad way.

Spending Christmas Eve with the same person for years has been a strange sight in many ways.

However, there was no way to break this bond.

It had already come out with her, and there was no going back or canceling it.

It will probably be the same on Christmas Eve next year.

I will just play out of habit, and I will repeat the same thoughts today.

So I didn’t think beyond that.

We just followed our schedule and enjoyed Christmas Eve together.

“Four popcorn and four drinks… … You want to split this in half? Can you eat all of this?”

“I’m going to take one and put it on someone’s nose? We should eat this much for our size!”

“Just take three of them.”

.

.

.

“Oh, oh, the big ones are coming. Ghana? Are you going?”

“Quiet. I can’t hear the sound of the movie.”

.

.

.

“Saying your convictions, it seems that the director’s mother and father fell behind.”

“… … Didn’t you see this movie before returning?”

“I just didn’t watch it because it was annoying. But seeing the movie now, I think that was better.”

.

.

.

“Jungle difference, jungle difference, jungle difference, jungle difference, jungle difference, jungle difference, jungle difference, jungle difference, jungle difference, jungle difference. No f*ck top parentless asshole bastard throws it!!!”

“Mary, throw them away and come here right now! Let’s just backdoor!”

“Everyone? Oh, are you really horny? Go in now!”

“Mina? Mina? Does this work?!”

“Oh f*ck winning!”

.

.

.

“Throw the game. bye.”

“You son of a gun.”

.

.

.

“Kangshi~ I bought 4 bubble teas~”

“… … four?”

“Okay, you have one here. I have three.”

“???”

Bubble tea with straws inserted one after another.

Chunmari held up three of them as if hugging them and put three straws in her mouth at once.

Soon after, the bubble tea started to decrease along with the cheesy sound of jjuap, jjuap.

Even so, it was truly amazing that she had such a thin body.

“Well, as expected, bubble tea is the best.”

“Hey, give me one.”

.

.

.

However, not all plans went smoothly.

It was because a thousand birds destroyed and ate the punch machine in the arcade, so it took some time to fix it.

FYI, it wasn’t purely the fault of the thousand.

This guy is an intelligent idiot, but not to the point of destroying an old machine out of nowhere.

This was just a fight with a woman and an instant bet unfolded.

“Look, cheap friend. I am a successful international student. Please do not be surprised by my fist effect.”

“What the hell are you talking about when you can’t even speak Korean?”

They seemed to be the same age as us, and their names were… … impregnable? Namgung? what time was it

Anyway, it didn’t seem like Korean.

He looked like a Chinese who went on a trip in a good mood after roughly finishing the exam, but due to friction with me in the game room, the match started.

And meanly, the foreigner ran away as soon as the Thousand Horses killed the machine with the Thousand Horse Punch.

“草上飛 (Cho Sangbi)!”

His sluggish speed and shameless judgment were comparable to those of the Chinese Moorim people.

It is said that he is a child without nothing, no cooperation, and no parents.

“This, this, crazy bitch!!!”

“Looks like you’re faster than your ancestors!”

A situation where I suddenly wrote a dump.

Of course, Cheonma went on a rampage, saying that the next time they met, they would do a physics experiment to see if they could use humans as partners.

Suddenly, I wondered if I should ask for a machine that costs hundreds to tens of millions of won.

Fortunately, the owner said it was an old machine anyway, and told me not to worry about it and go.

Still, as long as I have a conscience and enough money, I paid moderately and left around 20:00.

Originally, I was thinking of going to a comic book store and reading a book, but the days were a bit ambiguous for that.

In the end, I ended up wandering around moderately.

It was unavoidable because we ate dinner around 22:00 out of 30:00 a day.

It was in the meantime.

I bought street tteokbokki and headed to a bench in the park.

Chunmari sat neatly on one end of the bench and tapped her black stocking thigh.

I roughly guessed what the signal was, so I nodded and sat down.

He immediately laid down on her thigh.

Chunmari picked up the tteokbokki with a toothpick and slowly put them in my mouth one by one.

It was soft, delicious, and comfortable.

I wanted to see a thousand faces, but I couldn’t see any because of my chest.

I had no choice but to turn my head slightly to the side to look at the clear sky.

“How does it taste?”

“It is delicious. A lot of that too.”

A grin was heard.

I don’t know what he was thinking, but it didn’t seem negative at all.

Take it like that once, twice, three times.

It was around the time I even wiped my mouth with a tissue.

When I slightly rolled my eyes on something in the corner of my field of vision, I saw the news streaming from an electronic display board on a certain building.

It wasn’t something that had nothing to do with me.

“Nartika, successful overseas expansion? Depends on your future strategy… … Reassurance is prohibited?”

“You must read to the end. During the academy crisis, the image enhancement through large-scale relief had a great impact.”

A relief plan that I just proposed and a thousand animals put into action.

It was just a plan proposed because I thought it would be better to avoid the image of sucking money in a quasi-war situation.

To be honest, there was nothing to gain except for a few images.

It could be said that it was a bit excessive for a person who did not belong to Nartica properly and had no stake in it.

Rather, the determination of a thousand horses and the ability to take control of the company that pushed this forward were just amazing.

“Originally, overseas sales were insignificant. I was able to open some water with this incident. It’s all thanks to you.”

“I was just talking. It was you who did it.”

“No, I just did it. I was just copying what you said back then.”

“You talk too much about being friends. This is a bad habit.”

“Even if it is forced to float. Because you are Nartika’s treasure. Of course you can, can’t you?”

He hasn’t denied it since.

It was because he knew that the thousand horses had run out, but if he continued to deny it, the horse’s tail would bite endlessly.

“Moreover, there is such an advantage this time. I could have given your aunt a suitable house.”

“ah… … .”

It happened shortly after escaping from the academy.

Before working with Im Ha-na and her friends, I needed to get my aunt out to a safe place, so I asked for a favor.

‘I want to take out some of the investment and buy a new house for my aunt to be safe and comfortable.’

If accepted, I wouldn’t have to suffer from the anxiety of Im Hana living next door.

With the emotional ups and downs unique to drug addicts, it would be possible to avoid becoming a victim of a sudden rash.

But at the time, Chunmari suggested something else instead of withdrawing the investment money.

It was nothing else, Nartika gave away an entire house as an event.

All rigged events.

The product is a house.

In this way, there was no need to withdraw the investment money.

After all, the money is provided by Nartika.

Still, she refused because she didn’t want to burden Nartika, and Chun-mae pushed on saying that it was okay until the end.

It was the first and last time he had ever come out so resolutely.

The conversation only ran parallel, so I had to raise the white flag.

In the end, my aunt received a house as a gift that was easy to commute to and from.

What was the reaction like?

It’s obvious, but I really liked it.

I liked it so much that it was even half-festive.

In fact, it would be rather odd otherwise.

I got a house worth 1 to 2 billion won virtually for free, how could I not do that?

That’s how my aunt and I sold our existing house and moved to a new one.

In the process, the surrounding houses that Cheonma bought for speculation.

Houses that were repurposed as warehouses because they were held for a long time.

They were also cleaned up due to management and security issues.

The problem was that I needed to move papers and luggage quietly before organizing.

So, I was just at the moment when I was moving my luggage with the Nartica staff after asking Chunmari… … .

“Of course, I didn’t expect it to snowball and start a fight and chaos.”

Who knows what kind of drug lords would swear.

This world was a place I didn’t even know.

“But the results are good. Pretty good right?”

“That’s right.”

We continued to reflect on what happened this year.

Various words came out, various reactions came out, and many tteokbokki came into my mouth.

It was a time when I was maintaining a warm atmosphere in the cold weather like that.

I felt a little bit of something warm flying and sticking to me.

I turned my gaze slightly and looked around.

It was later that I realized that couple passers-by were staring at us.

“Sangcheol-ah, if I do the same… … .”

“Let’s be quiet.”

“Seo Na-eun, where do you keep looking?”

“No, that… … !”

“Wow… … I’m really envious… … .”

“brother!”

“Nuna, even though I’m not to that level, I’m still pretty good—”

“Eh… … .”

In fact, it wasn’t just staring.

I even whispered so that I couldn’t hear it well.

Why do couples look at us like that on Christmas Eve?

In many ways, it was a sad reality for solo artists.

“Kangshi, these f*cking couples are going to see us and get off.”

“Huh, it’s not like we’re doing anything weird.”

“admit. They turn off.”

It was a truly cruel world.

And it was a tough world to live in.

We switched roles, ignoring the dirty couple’s stares.

Then, the tteokbokki slowly moved towards the mouth of the thousand horses.

Christmas Eve passed away in the stinging.
