This is crazy
Why the hell is Hyung Nim touching me like that.
This kind of guy is my brother?

"Since he's gotten considerably well,we should call the art teacher again".
Nim suggested.

The protagonists art teacher?

"No thank you".
I said.

"Why not!".
he asked
He doesn't know about the teacher he's just a character here.
In the novel that person.
Is the first man to lay his hands on Lee DongHa!
So am I going to go through that?
This must be a joke right?
I have to think of a lie

"I just can't keep drawing pointlessly,can i? I would like to do some work that would help the household".
This is good enough to convince them.

"You're useless if you don't even draw what do you think you're capable of doing?".
Nim said to me with the look of pity and disgust.

He's telling me to do nothing? Health comes first.

He gazed into my eyes with an ominous look in his eyes.

It can't be for something like that to actually happen.
No.
I must stop it from happening.

Damn it.
Since I only skim read it once.

The order of events are all mixed up.

Just how resentful was SungWu to relieve his anger by writing such a crazy story.

How lonely could he have been to change this much?

I made my way to yujin's room.

"Who is it?".
Yujin asked.

"I'm begging you!".
I grabbed him by his collar.
"So please, take out those words you wrote out of anger please!".
I begged yujin.

"So this Yoo SungWu also writes as well?".
He said.

That's right even though he looks the same as SungWu this man is only yujin.

"Please show some respect for the people in this household".
"To have mistaken me for a scum of being who relieves his anger I'm his writing".
"That's quite offensive".
Yujin State's

"I'm scared yujin".
"Something is about to happen in the future".

"That's something anyone would worry about".

"Please get me out of this house for a while".
I say this offering yujin some money.
"Please yujin".

Later on that day Yujin arranged for a rickshaw.

"We're going to ride this?".
I asked yujin.

"Yes since the baron rode the car to go out".
"Should I have called a taxi".
Yujin asked with the look of confusion.

The rickshaw owner pleaded with us stating that he hasn't had any customers today.

"Let's just get on".
"I've never ridden on a rickshaw before".
The both of us get in.

Our butts are touching.
Our tights too.
It's to cramped in here.
Let's try talking to him naturally.

"Is this written Japanese too?".
I asked.
"Aren't there any books in Korean language?".
"There are only Japanese books in my room as well,so there's nothing to read".

Yujin speaks telling me.
"If you speak in that manner anywhere".

"Why?".
"What is it?".
I asked smiling.

"It's nothing. If anything happens by chance".

"Please make sure to say your the grandson of Baron Lee wonja ok".
He said this to me with utmost worry.

So this is Seoul from 89years ago.
I wonder where this location is in the present?
There are so many wires on the streets.
I feel like I visited a movie set.

"Right,where can I watch plays written by you?".
I asked him.
He tells me they are available in the Hyukjo black swan theatre.

"Where is it?".
Yujin pointed to the Ally by the left.

Suddenly the rickshaw tumbles on a huge rock causing it to loose balance.

Im going to fall.

Yujin grabs me and holds onto me tightly.

"What are you thinking? Leaning so closely and almost falling off!".
He yelled at me
"It could have been a close call".

I apologized to Yujin for my carelessness.

"We've arrived at Hwangkeumjung".
The driver announced.

"Let's get off".
I then made my way to pay the driver.

"He asked for a single won but I thought it was too little,so I gave him 10 won and he seemed overjoyed".
I told Yujin.

"Well,he just received a months worth of salary why wouldn't he be happy?".

"What? It was only 10 won though".

From there we headed to a fortune teller.

"Tis a tailsman that calls upon mamashin".
She alerted me.
"Mamashin?".

"It's duchang. Also known as smallpox nowadays".

Ohh I see the disease that gets eradicated in the 20th century, but it hasn't been yet in this period.

She goes on saying someone in the house hold wants me to fall I'll and die.

"Young master is there anyone that comes mind".
She asked
"About one or two"

It's got to be my mother and brother.

"You're eyes are so round".
"You're face so pale".
"Not to mention,why is you're neck so slender?".
"Despite being a man".
"Due to your colour,you'll have a very short life".

The moment she says this to me I become frozen in fear.

Is this the image for Lee DongHa in the novel.

"Watch your mouth old hag".
Yujin warns.
"To think one's life span depends on their appearance, what a scam".

"Don't you fear divine punishment".
She yells at yujin.

Well it's a bit absurd.
But this is fictional work anyway it's just a novel.

I decided to ask if she read horoscopes.

"Young master".
Yujin says this looking worried.

"Tell me the year, month,day, and time you were born".

"Year 1997, January 20th,7am".

"Misfortune must be coming my way for such lunatics to come visit me!".

"Get lost! Shoo shoo!".
The Fortune teller yelled and kicked us out.
"Don't ever come back".
She slammed the door.
