“Too much.”
Suddenly saying it was too much, I thought about it once more. Still, I couldn’t find an answer. Jun’s eyes, watching me, lengthened as I continued to tilt my head in confusion. It felt cold, as if pretending not to know even when knowing.
“I genuinely want to know, but I really don’t know. Do I have additional lines or scripts?”
“No. There’s nothing to add.”
“Oh, then, why from earlier…”
“I know what a club means.”
The reason Jun persistently asked from earlier became clear in an instant. I tried to hold back, but my lips kept curling upwards. I never thought it could be because of that.
“I also tried not to say anything unless necessary. No matter what, a club…”
Even as I spoke, I felt it wasn’t quite right, and before I could finish my sentence, Jun sighed as if he couldn’t stand it.
“Oh, what’s this? I didn’t realize that. Again.”
“‘Again’?”
“‘Again’ was an abbreviation for ‘I thought it was a very serious matter.'”
“…I didn’t ask about that.”
“Then what do you want to hear? I’ll say it. Come on, tell me.”
Jun stared at me without a response, as if he didn’t want to answer. I thought I hadn’t done anything wrong. When I asked again if there was nothing he wanted to hear, he finally released his heavy lips.
“I’ve already absorbed various books related to video production in Korean. Absorbed.”
“Ah…”
Now I understood the reason for his odd speech. Choosing the word ‘absorbed’ and emphasizing it, it seemed like he wanted to appeal that he was someone who knew advanced words and could use them appropriately.
So, appealing something like this at this point seemed amusing, as if he didn’t know it was ridiculous.
“Why that expression? It’s as if I expected you to have written down such words in advance.”
“Oh, I didn’t think of that. I really might have.”
“Haah, Haru.”
“Why, Director Kim?”
“…Fine, then.”
“Yeah?”
“If you’re not going to revise that line, I might have to remove that god from the movie. Director’s authority.”
Jun forcefully pushed my notebook, which I had been looking at, towards me. While he talked about the director’s authority, I wondered how the writer’s authority was seen.
“It’s not like that. You really didn’t know the meaning of the club back then.”
“Haah, well. I didn’t know, I didn’t… Anyway, I’ll remove it.”
“Why would you…”
To be honest, it felt a bit awkward. Moreover, Jun let out a sigh even before I finished my sentence.
“Oh, whatever. That’s how it is. I thought it was a tremendously serious matter.”
“In terms of emotional impact in the movie, it doesn’t seem to have much meaning. It’s not worth being stubborn about.”
Unforeseen moments always lifted their heads.
“That, too, is our memory.”
At that moment, Jun’s last words settled heavily into me, sinking my heart with an unexpected thud.
“That’s also our memory,” I repeated.
“It’s meaningless. That conversation, the one we had on the day we first met. The words that the boy I unknowingly fell for said that day, I thought about them so much that night alone in bed.”
My trembling gaze briefly lifted and dropped. In that moment, I saw your face tilting your flushed lips left and right, searching for words.
“You say we should choose precious lines and necessary gods. For me, every day with you was like that. They were so precious that whenever the light in the corner of my memory began to fade, I suddenly felt scared. I was afraid I might forget. I was afraid I might forget even a scene, not to mention a word.”
The words pushed out by the lonely feeling scattered mercilessly in the air. I had thrown a tantrum about how you didn’t value those memories as much as I did. However, that didn’t make my heart any lighter.
I know. Words that hurt you will come back to me as a bigger sigh.
Then it happened.
“I got it.”
“…Huh?”
“I got it. I won’t touch our memories at all, as you say.”
“…”
“So, Haru. Please don’t make that expression.”
Looking sad with your eyes and gently raising the corners of your mouth, I stared at you somewhat blankly.
“Haru’s words are all correct. Those precious memories of our twenties that I want to go back to but can’t.”
Suddenly, Jun leaned towards me and said, “Haru, come a little closer to me.”
“Why…”
Without taking my eyes off you, I leaned my body. When my body almost tipped over to the center of the table, warm hands touched my eyes.
“You cried.”
Jun wiped away the tears that were slightly gathered in my eyes. As his gentle touch reached my eyes, I closed them with a small smile.
“Come to think of it, how about having a director who can’t even distinguish between club and calf words? You’re right next to me. My lover who is beautiful whether smiling or crying. Don’t you agree?”
After skillfully making my heart flutter, Jun chuckled once and turned his thoughtful eyes back to the monitor.
Luckily, he didn’t catch the moment my cheeks turned red.
“Oh, Mi Jung. What’s all this?”
Jeong Eun stood up with a slightly agitated voice. Her head turned that way as if by chance, despite being busy with work.
Top Celebrity Younger Brother Bears Her Child (Female-dominant)

Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
