012. Etch!

[brother. You worked so hard because of me this time. From next week, I will really participate hard, so please trust me.]

[I couldn’t explain it properly, but there was a really important personal history.]

[This is not a big deal, but you can eat it while you eat it…]

“Hehe… Hehehe…”

Is my head broken?

Laughter escaped from my mouth.

Looking into the personal message window, I felt the muscles in my face moving briskly.

gift.

Received a gift.

Of course, it is true that the sum of all donations to Luca exceeded 500,000 won, but I never imagined that the day would come when I would receive something from Luca.

It wasn’t a time like this.

I need to reply soon…

It’s not chilly, but not too burdensome.

I didn’t want to send it with a short answer like before.

Didn’t you even receive a present today?

[uh. I’ll eat well. Thanks.^^]

write…

Is this too old man?

In fact, I tend to agree with the opinion that everyone is a man after serving in the military.

Hitting backspace, I moved my thumb again.

[No no. are you okay. It was nothing more than I thought. There was no need to deal with it in such a hurry…]

It seems like this is talking too much…

After much thought, I finally decided to send a concise sentence.

[Did you handle the urgent work well?]

I thought this would be fine.

It doesn’t seem that rude, and I feel like he cared.

[yes! Thanks to you, I handled it safely.]

Then make sure you pass! Lucca!

Be sure to pass and ask for a golden return!

But this is a silent clamor.

I sent only one thumbs up emoticon and closed the messenger window.

“Whoa…”

I kept thinking of Luca’s broadcast I had just watched.

My favorite who laughed and played drip with the viewers.

But it’s not that I’m exchanging private messages with Luca right now.

Is it a true story? this.

“Hehe”

oh I was really lucky to be home alone.

I didn’t want to show this idiot-like expression to others.

There was still a little bit left to finish the pitty, but rather, the strength seemed to rise.

A little secret between me and her that Doa doesn’t know.

The secret was the driving force to get through this long night.

* * *

Beep beep beep beep

I fumbled to turn off the alarm, and I grabbed my phone without even opening my eyes.

“no…”

there was no more

It wasn’t yesterday, it wasn’t the day before yesterday, and it wasn’t even this morning.

Luca’s channel where Luca’s warmth has disappeared.

Pingtukdan, like me, was not alone in searching for traces of her.

[Luka… Please give me a notice.]

[Lukatan, I’m so cold…]

[But isn’t this the problem with those YM bastards? No, what are you going to do if you don’t show the date and time of acceptance?]

[I’m sorry… I won’t do it because I’m a fucking idol… Come back…]

There was a notice that the final gateway for the virtual idol group Closer would be held privately.

It is said that it is private to deal with current issues about whether or not we can really continue our activities properly, but I thought it was too much that the release date of whether or not we passed was unconfirmed.

I wished that Luca would just briefly upload the current situation, but even today, Wednesday, about a week after Thursday, only cold wind was blowing through the notice window.

“…Kim Do-ah.”

I took a deep breath and recited Luka’s real name from the start of the chat room and checked the conversation we had yesterday in the chat room.

[This is because we got confirmation from the professor yesterday, right? Doa, please read all of them today and participate.]

[ah. Yes Yes. I’ll read it all and come back.]

[Did your personal circumstances end well?]

[yes. Thank you so much everyone. ㅠㅠ]

[You drink coffee today. Doa Kim.]

[ㅇㅋㅇㅋ]

Even though Minji and Junseok had a hard time, they seemed to understand.

oh But if Jun-seok is in a situation like this again next time, I think he’ll say it as a joke…

It was natural for people who take care of their scores to prepare for a project with sincerity and diligence every time.

Will I be able to fit the schedule well once I go into filming?

I don’t think Luca should have taken a day off because he was doing an assignment like this…

I thought it would be better for me to have a schedule on the day Luca set up a broadcast.

no. By the way, why don’t you write a notice while working hard to reply like this?

why don’t you use it! Lucca!

Can’t you see that Pingtuk is trembling?

It was a strange structure.

Why do I hate the way he seems to be putting more effort into his present life, which obviously directly affects me?

I don’t know everything, I just wanted the broadcast to turn on.

I felt like dying because I was curious about the audition results.

So what happened?

Did you stick or fall?

what did the company say?

All sorts of questions popped up, but they weren’t something to talk about face-to-face.

Next time I turn on the broadcast, I’ll have to ask in chat.

I got up from bed, quickly washed my face and finished the shower.

dress…

Normally, I would just pick up something and wear it to school, but when I thought I was going to meet Luca, something…

I looked all over the closet.

Well. I don’t see anything wrong with it.

In fact, my main expenditure was mostly sponsoring games and internet broadcasting.

It was because I thought there was no reason to buy expensive clothes when I was stuck at home.

Because I’ve never dressed up to look good to anyone.

The clean, semi-formal look that I wear for presentations is currently the rarest item in my closet.

After thinking about it for a while, I decided to go wearing a jean jacket over a black T-shirt.

The pants are black slacks that can be seen really everywhere.

Standing in front of the mirror, I tried tidying up my hair for no reason.

It might look ok…

a. I don’t know.

It’s not that I’m trying to do anything with Doa, but a weak Hyeonta came to me for caring so much.

As I walked out the front door, the autumn wind blew in just enough to make me feel good.

thing. It’s a good day to watch the broadcast with the window open.

I think it would be nice to just put it in for about 6 hours.

Arriving at the classroom door, I swallowed a gulp.

Every class with Doah was like a fan meeting to me.

“Taemin oppa!”

Minji, who was sitting alone, found me and waved at me, as if Junseok and Doa hadn’t arrived yet.

“uh. hi.”

“You worked hard last week!”

“Nope. What.”

“I should have to say that I was a bit surprised because you worked so hard, but you were really passionate.”

That’s right… Luca has to debut…

I didn’t have any desire for points, but I nodded my head with a puzzled expression, thinking that Luca’s earnestness for success was there.

The moment I thought it would be a bit burdensome to talk to Minji more.

“uh? Doa High!”

When Minji moved her gaze to the direction where she turned her head, Doa was standing there in a beige trench coat.

“uh. high. hello.”

Doa bows her head in my direction politely.

I slightly bowed my head and accepted her greeting.

Minji on the left. Doa on the right.

Normally, real girls would be reluctant and would want to sit alone in the corner while taking off school.

Luca seemed to make me a strong person in so many ways.

“Five. What. Are you all here?”

Jun-seok, who arrived last, put the bag on the desk.

“uh. Did you bring your laptop?”

“then. You’re carrying this to meet me.”

From the first day of class, it was always Jun-seok’s job to be in charge of the laptop computer.

It wasn’t that we just handed it over, but I didn’t bother to bring it just because I was bringing it.

“Let’s start class.”

Soon after, the professor came in and we had time to review the project, just like last week.

“this…”

After carefully examining our advertisement production plan, the professor touched his chin.

“As I said in the last feedback, I don’t think the content I brought is not an area that can be easily accessed.”

“Metaverse. VR. I know it’s a new field that’s hot these days, but it won’t be easy to devise an advertising strategy that actually reflects this.”

“I have actually done something with VR here, or playing with VR devices is my hobby. Are there any students like this?”

Eyes instinctively directed toward Doa.

On the other hand, Doa looked a little farther away, perhaps because she wanted to smoke something else.

“It really produces results. If you do it, you can come out really novel, and if you do it clumsily, there is a high probability that it will not be this or that.”

In short, if you do well, it’s a jackpot.

“I think we can do something really novel! I’ll do my best!”

Jun-seok’s ambition for his grades burned in his eyes.

“If that’s the case, I won’t stop you from doing it.”

“Instead, you need to study more about VR itself, and analyze the target audience in depth. And I think it would be meaningful to actually go to a VR experience center and experience it by moving it with your hands.”

“Anyway, I hope next week there will be data of deeper analysis. If you have experience, it would be nice to bring it about.”

“Yep!”

As the professor moved to look after the next group, Junseok opened his mouth.

“Guys.”

“yes?”

“Everyone, take your time.”

Eyes burning with passion for learning.

“We should go for a VR experience.”

“Etch!”

The same cute sneezing sound as on the broadcast came out of Doa’s mouth.
