”… You did”

”I want to cancel that”

What?

”Projects should be decided on by the actor and their ha added as if to emphasize her intentions,

”So it's not your fault if it fails”

I ondering why she was suddenly saying that…

-Team leader, is it true you have a panic disorder?

Im Joohispered with a worried voice on the phone

”Where did that nonsense come from?”

-Apparently, you suddenly went over to the water fountain while panting and downed six or seven cups of water consecutively Your hands tre to run away as people started to gather Is that not it?

I felt like I was about to go crazy

-That ru in the company That you developed a panic disorder fro soa teao crazy

I dissuaded hi him I was fine multiple times

I checked es There was nothing more to say about the chiefs at work, but I also received so Inho After looking through them, it seemed they had visited while I was unconscious

I even saw Son Chaeyoung ast the missed calls I didn't kno far the rumors about my supposed panic disorder had spread

I clicked es before pausing There was a long e from an unknown number I pressed the 'call' button as soon as I read it

-hello?

So It was a woman's voice She see?”

-Yes, this is Oh Hyunkyung Is this perhaps Tea you after reading your e I wanted to learn more about it”

-Ah, that is… I didn't kno you found out… But I heard that you talked about my scenario

”Your scenario?”

She replied ile

{1} The two lines are the same in Korean

{2} I used 'ABC' over the Korean alphabet but used an English translation of the Korean national anthe, By Any Means (5)

TL: emptycube / ED: Isleidir

There was only one scenario…

But two people who clai?

Director Oh Hyunkyung said in a flustered voice

-To be honest, I was unsure when I received a call from Director Joo

Director Joo Joo Jaechan So they knew each other

-City Jungle isn't a very common title, and I had only co about it for the past few enre, which is what …

That's right

The pieces all fit together, but the final picture was very odd

-If I was mistaken then I'm really sorry Please excus-!

”No”

I said calh hopes or be too disappointed

”We talked while having a few drinks so myenres Hmm, I didn't know that it was your work”

-Pardon?

Her excited breaths suddenly stiffened

-… Did Director Joo Jaechan say it was his?

She reacted in a sensitivethreatened

Without waiting forhastily said

-Then you've been tricked City Jungle Maybe not in the past, but now it's ht it

I twirledit aside Thunder rued the IV stand over and opened theA fresh breeze and raindrops blew in, acco I looked up at the sky, which see ht the scenario

If Director Joo Jaechan sold her his scenario and gave up all rights to the work, then there would be no problems with the law Director Joo Jaechan would not be able to claiht on the work either

However, as it back in Director Joo Jaechan's possession in the future?

Did Director Joo Jaechan buy it back?

Or…

”What are you doing? That's dangerous”

Sorabbed the back of my neck

”You'll die if you fall fro back, I saw a face covered with a black face mask It was Seo Jijoon While he pulled me away frojoon closed theJust what outrageous thoughts were they thinking right now?

”I was just taking in the breeze Why would I fall?”

At my words, Seo Jijoon tilted his head

”Out of i, but there was no reply Rather, Seo Jijoon's eyes turned slightly misty

I told him the exact same words I told Im Joowon as I sat back down on my bed

”there was no need for you to come”

”I cao out I wanted to feel the breeze too”

He took off his mask and handed me a basket

It was a basket of roses I wasn't even surprised

”It's bigger than last time And redder”

”I paid special attention because it was a hospital visit Ah, apparently, they don't gift flowers for hospital visits these days It wasn't good for the patient Allergies and such”

”If you know that, then why?”

”Those are fake”

Ah

”They are soap flowers You can pick one out and use it when you're taking a bubble bath”

”… I'll use it well”

I placed the flowers on top of the cabinet shelf Chief Lee Bongjoon clicked his tongue as he said,

”Do you kno shocked I hen I heard that you fainted after going to get water and had to be brought out by an ambulance?”

”Probably less thanyou that's not it”

While I did have various symptoms for mental illnesses, I didn't have a panic disorder

However, Chief Lee Bongjoon and Seo Jijoon didn't look like they believed ht that those rumors were spread by those who didn't likewith e of his nose

”You look fine on the outside If I were you, I would probably have a panic disorder, loss of appetite, and a mental breakdown? But you looked extreed drastically after the Team 2 Leader left I would have continued to think that if you didn't faint”

”This was simply exhaustion and sleep deprivation…”

”It's not 'simply' Whether it's exhaustion or sleep deprivation”

Saying this, Chief Lee Bongjoon patteda lot of burden without you realizing”

”Tea his neck,

”Although I said I wanted to ith you, it wasn't because I had hopes that all my projects would be successes if I did I'm not smart, but I'm not that senseless”

”I don't know about that”

Chief Lee Bongjoon smirked Seo Jijoon added,

”Well, I did think you'd have a better eye for projects than Bongjoon hyung”

”Hey”

”I came to tell you that you don't need to worry about it in case you felt burdened because of that”

Seo Jijoon looked atto retire after one or two projects It's norood times I'll do what I can and leave the rest to the heavens Also, above all…”

His sharp eyes curved in a joking manner,

”The reason why I wanted to ith you is siht it would be fun”

So h I was only there for a day

After Seo Jijoon and Chief Lee Bongjoon left, Nam Joyoon and Kim Hyunsup ca his entertainment show schedule Pretty Girls and Chief Lee Taeshi+n visited at night after co all the way fro, and I looked back on the past few days

Although everything happened before I could even catch my breath My relationshi+p with the Team 2 Leader sharply deteriorated, and because he left the co in people intoobstacles

Did I have no free ti the duties of a teas and discussions increased There was a lot anize On top of all that, I was absorbed in thinking about my actor's next projects and my future visions that there were a few days where I didn't sleep a wink

Burden

I recalled Seo Jijoon's words Kim Hyunjo had said it before too That if I failed once, I could just succeed the next tiht that I had put down some pressure to succeed after that

The uncertain future visions kept tugging at my mind

Just in case I saw a vision where the project I chose failed

In case I saw a vision where the project I rejected becaret !”

”I'm fine”

”Are you ok-!”

”I'uest?”

”I'uest?”

An employee nodded

”She said her na?

I thought I ended yesterday's call quite well, but why did she suddenly show up here?

When I frowned, the eht her to a ht awith her since she mentioned that she had talked to you on the phone yesterday Was that not the case?”

”She brought a scenario?”

”Should I say you have anotherand send her back? Ah, but because the director careet her”

They were the chiefs under Tea rumors about my panic disorder They probably went over because they were interested than to greet her In case it was a scenario I was interested in

This was co came to see me and where she inal future I had planned on walking the path and waiting for the project to coun to appear

If things were headed in a direction I couldn't predict…

I made my decision and asked the e room was full I saw Chief Park and Chief Yoon's bitter faces through theChief Lee Bongjoon sat his round body right between theot up when he saw me

”Then we'll be on our way Please enjoy your ot up with evenChief Park's gaze landed on the scenario on top of the table for athose two off first, Chief Lee Bongjoon whispered,

”It seems she's here to promote her scenario Why there are investors who pay attention if it's a scenario you're interested in There are a lot of people who come to meet you with those motives”

”Did you see what kind of project it is?”

”I heard fro rooue

”It's a stylish action noir I'll have to read the scenario to know for sure, but from what I heard, it seems like it'll cost a lot to produce A director who had numerous flops in the past and a small-scale production coh investments I wonder if it'll even be produced”

I sent Chief Lee Bongjoon off and entered thefor a while noas looking ather scenario My gaze focused on the title page for a le' was a clearly printed na

This would be produced and becoes
