Chapter 1

[This station is Seongsu, Seongsu Station. The door to get off is…]

“Whoa…”

I sighed softly and obtained off the subway.

Wooooow.

At the moment, I acquired a textual content message on my cellular phone, which often doesn’t ring. It was the audition outcomes textual content I had been ready for thus desperately.

——

Whats up. That is the casting group for <The Possessing Actor>.

Thanks for making use of to this audition.

Sadly, Jinseok Kang…

——

‘I failed once more this time. ‘When will the audition happen?’

I’ve already failed dozens of auditions. However I couldn’t get used to that feeling of loss.

[Door opens]

I obtained off the subway amongst workplace staff leaving work.

As I used to be taking place the steps as weak as common, I noticed the previous lady together with her again bent.

An previous lady sitting on the steps and gesturing to folks.

Do you want assist?

The grandmother beckoned to folks passing by, however nobody tried to assist her.

As if the grandmother was invisible.

‘Ought to I assist the grandmother…?’

However I didn’t really feel prefer it proper now. Possibly it was as a result of I failed the audition, and I used to be so mentally and bodily exhausted.

Whereas I used to be desirous about that, I used to be instantly passing by the grandmother.

By the point I got here down the steps like that.

“ha···.”

I couldn’t bear to faux to not know.

It was due to my earnest want to get at the least a one-line half within the grandmother’s hand gestures as she anxiously referred to as out to folks passing by overlapped.

I went up the steps once more and requested the grandmother.

“Grandma, might I assist you to?”

He requested cautiously and the grandmother lifted her head.

The wrinkles on her face have been filled with fear.

In distinction, the white garments she was sporting have been surprisingly wrinkle-free and clear.The origin of this chapter’s debut may be traced to N0v3l–B1n.

As I stared at her, the grandmother held out her hand to me.

“Hey, I’m sorry, however are you able to assist me?”

“Sure. “How can I assist you to?”

“I’ve to go dwelling, however I can’t go alone… “I’m sorry, however can you are taking me with you?”

What do you have to often do on this state of affairs?

Maybe the easiest way could be to report it to a station worker.

However for some cause, I wished to assist in individual as we speak.

“Sure. “Maintain my hand and arise.”

“Thanks. thanks a lot.”

I slowly helped the grandmother.

***

After passing via alleys and alleys, I crossed the primary avenue and arrived on the grandmother’s home.

Even I, a Seongsu-dong native, had no concept a spot like this existed.

“After···. “Is it over there?”

“We’re nearly there.”

I carried the grandmother all the best way to her home. He didn’t actually know as a result of it was his first time carrying an previous individual, however the grandmother was fairly heavy.

He says today he solely reads scripts and perhaps it’s as a result of he doesn’t train.

‘Even when I’ve to chop again on my part-time job, I’ve to put aside time to train…’

Whereas I used to be desirous about this and that, I arrived in entrance of the home that the grandmother pointed to. It was a reasonably previous villa.

When he opened the previous, rusty iron door on the entrance to the villa, there was a scraping sound of steel that he hated to listen to.

Once I opened the entrance door, I noticed an previous staircase that was appropriate for an previous villa.

The grandmother pointed to the steps.

“I’ve to go to the second ground.”

“Sure. “You may have household at dwelling, proper?”

“Then. “I got here to see my son…”

Carried the grandmother up the steps.

His legs have been shaking, however he held on as greatest as he might, understanding that they’d arrive quickly.

He went as much as the second ground and the grandmother pointed someplace together with her hand.

“There’s an enormous crock pot over there. “Please open that.”

“Sure···.”

To be trustworthy, I wished to open it shortly.

Daily, I labored part-time, practiced performing, and even auditioned. I used to be extraordinarily drained.

‘However now that I’ve began… I’ve to see the tip of this.’

“This one?”

I stood in entrance of a very massive crock pot and requested. Then the grandmother got here down from my again.

“That… I’m sorry about earlier. “I’m a bit impatient.”

“No. it’s okay. The bankbook is within the jar. “Then I’ll simply go away…”

Since he wasn’t notably offended on the man, he spoke calmly and tried to depart.

He slowly rotated and was about to go down the steps when the person stopped him.

“Hey, let’s go and eat at the least.”

“···.”

“It was destiny that we met like this.”

***

“After···.”

After returning dwelling drained, I took a fast bathe and lay down on the mattress.

Then, instantly, I remembered the story I had with the person once we have been consuming.

The person was initially learning for a doctorate in the USA, however his mom was in important situation, so he gave up all the pieces and got here again.

In a rush, he borrowed cash from numerous sources to pay for his mom’s surgical procedure, however his mom stubbornly refused the surgical procedure.

He stated, ‘he tried to get surgical procedure and life-sustaining remedy for her mother, however she refused to the tip and even hid her checking account.’

He briefly recalled his dialog with the person after which shortly went to sleep.

He needed to sleep in a bit longer to go to his part-time job early within the morning after which audition for a small position.

‘I hope I am going to the audition tomorrow.’

I fell asleep not lengthy after I closed my eyes.

Nevertheless.

‘···Why am I coming to my senses?’

Clearly, I fell asleep. However my reminiscence was tremendous.

Once I seemed round, I discovered myself floating in some white area.

‘Are you saying it is a lucid dream the place you possibly can transfer at will in your dream?’

At the moment, a well-recognized voice was heard from behind. When he seemed behind him, he noticed the identical previous woman he had seen throughout the day.

“Thanks a lot earlier. Did the meal fit your style? “These are the aspect dishes I taught Jinsu.”

Though he was a bit startled by the grandmother instantly showing behind him, he shortly calmed down.

“Ah···. sure. It was actually scrumptious. “Your son cried lots.”

“I assume so. Though Jinsu seems to be sturdy on the skin, he’s actually a gentle child. “I do know all the pieces.”

“Sure···.”

“Anyway, I actually owe the younger man lots. So it’s not an enormous deal, however I’d like to assist. “Is it okay?”

‘I’m in debt…’

I didn’t do something nice to deserve these phrases.

I don’t know what sort of assist she was making an attempt to provide me, however I shook my head as a result of I had no intention of receiving extreme compensation.

“It’s okay. “I simply did what I might.”

“Not many individuals do what they will. “I actually need to assist such a younger man, so why not simply settle for my compensation?”

It was tough for me to refuse when she stated it that method. Once I barely nodded my head, the grandmother smiled.

“Sure. If grandmother says so, I’ll gratefully settle for it.”

“Thanks. “There’s nothing I may give you, however it seems to be just like the younger man desires to turn into an actor, so I’ll assist him with that.”

“···Helps me turn into an actor? Are you saying you train performing?”

“Okay. However that doesn’t imply I’m instructing you methods to act. “I can’t try this.”

“······.”

“I can introduce you to my mates as a substitute. Initially… is that your pal?”

The grandmother seemed behind her as she spoke.

Then she waved her hand as if telling somebody to come back.

A short while later, a boy who seemed to be round center faculty appeared.

As I quietly seemed on the baby, the kid greeted me first.

“Whats up. I heard lots from grandmother. “My title is Minsu Kim.”

“Oh yeah. No, sure.”

He seemed youthful than me, however I handled him with respect as a result of he was deceased.

Minsu smiled brightly, most likely as a result of he discovered my response humorous.

“It’s okay to talk comfortably. “Once I was alive, I used to be youthful than you brother.”

The phrase ‘after I was alive’ was actually unhappy.

How might such a younger baby die so younger?

Whereas I used to be misplaced in thought, the grandmother stated.

“The audition you’re seeing tomorrow, ‘The youthful sister who was purported to obtain a kidney transplant from her mom offers the kidney to his older brother who suffers from the identical illness,’ proper?”

“Sure. nonetheless… ”

After blurting out her phrases, he requested cautiously.

“How do you know that?”

“Lifeless folks know all the pieces. Quite, it’s Minsu. Don’t you will have one thing to say to that brother too?”

“Ah sure! “I heard from grandmother that my brother has a really form coronary heart!”

“Not good, simply abnormal.”

“No method! Amongst all of the folks on the subway station, my older brother was the one one who helped grandmother, and he was very form! So please assist me too. “In return, I’ll assist my brother.”

I requested again, a bit hesitant at Minsu’s phrases.

“You’re serving to me with my performing…?”

“Sure!”

Minsu smiled confidently at my query.
