Chapter 13: The Autumn of Each One (Part II) 1/2
In the Mid-Autumn Festival, the planes fall into the clouds, and the huge city outline below expands rapidly in the field of vision, overlooking the vast blue ocean, and at the end of the line of sight is submerged by the reinforced concrete jungle, and the sky is overcast, which is not a good weather for tomb sweeping.
Stepping on this land again, he found that there was still a trace of timidity in his heart, so he pushed Jisoo and stood on the observation deck of the terminal building for a long time before getting into the car sent by the Busan office.
The person in charge of the company's Busan office drove the car.
An agency company, although the main public relations target is the three major satellite stations in Seoul, but a local TV station in a big city like Busan, of course, will not let go, especially the local music radio channel, which is also one of the important sources of income from song on demand, as early as the establishment of J.H, Ahn Junhyuk sent people to set up offices in Daegu, Gwangju, Busan and other places.
The head of Busan was hired from the local government just last month, and has experience working in Mnet and has a lot of connections with local TV broadcasters in Busan. "No More Love" before the three major satellite stations were completely developed, the local broadcasting contract in Busan was first completed by him, and he can be regarded as a very capable person, if this development continues, if nothing else, after two years, when the company needs to expand based on stability, the president's office will most likely put him on the list of candidates for the general manager of the branch.
It's just that Ahn Junhyuk was not very interested, and the other party was also a little restrained in front of him, so he chatted casually and stopped talking.
He looked back at Jisoo, but she turned her head to look out the window.
The shadows of the mountains, stretching their undulating lines under the gray sky. Autumn is a little cold and gentle, with the deepening of the season, slowly bringing all things to life, the distant mountains are brown, look like lifeless stones, cars are speeding, the scenery on both sides of the road is rapidly receding, only they stand in the distance, eternal and unchanged.
Looking at them, Jisoo with a numb expression. It's as if there is no life.
No matter how determined it is. No matter how strong she pretended, the city still carried the memories she was most reluctant to look back on, about her legs, about her mother who had turned into a handful of ashes.
He understands all of this.
She was so silent. It lasted for a long time. From the airport to the cemetery. Then it's time to clean the tombstones.
She has limited mobility, so she naturally can't interfere with the cleaning work, and everything is done by Ahn Junhyuk. She watched silently from the side. Over the course of a year, although there were often people from the cemetery to help clean it, a lot of floating dust had been accumulated, and some scattered leaves had drifted from the green belt around the cemetery, falling on the grave to wither and rot, and a few green smoke of burning paper money rose in the distance, Ahn Junhyuk knelt in front of the grave, wiping it over and over again with a towel soaked in water.
The wind was a little cold, and the sky pressed by dark clouds passed down the cold air from the nine heavens.
The water drained from the towel washed over the tombstone one after another, brushing away the dust and stains on it, and in the center of the tombstone, the yellowed photo gradually became clearer, and the luster of the water reflected the darkness of the sky, but under that, the woman in the photo, as she did a year ago, smiled gently towards this side, and the smart eyes, as if looking at it from any angle, would find that she was staring over.
At a certain moment, Jisoo suddenly cried, Ahn Jun-hyuk stopped what he was doing, turned around, and his sister covered her mouth, tears flowing down her fingers.
……
"I don't like to eat this!"
In the lively hotel, Yuna frowned impatiently and pushed back a chopstick of vegetables with a chopstick between a woman sitting across from her.
The scene was a little embarrassing, the chopsticks raised by the woman paused in mid-air, and her sister sat next to Yun'er, looking left and right, very embarrassed.
After a while, the woman finally withdrew her chopsticks, her lips twitched a few times, and she opened her mouth to persuade: "I remember that these dishes are all your favorite dishes before...... Has the taste changed now? What about ...... I'll call the waiter, what do you want to eat, let's order again......"
"Smack!"
Yuna threw down the spoon, her little face tensed, and she stood up, "I don't like to eat anything!"
With that, he left without looking back.
Many tables around are very lively, only here, all the festive atmosphere is withdrawn in an instant, my sister stretched out her hand to stop it, but did not stop Yun'er, and wanted to get up and chase after her, but when she looked back at the woman, she couldn't bear to leave the other party alone, and finally could only watch Yun'er's angry back disappear into the corner of the restaurant.
Silence ensued, and the woman propped her forehead with one hand, her expression dazed, and there was a faint mist in her eyes.
Looking at her, the sister of the Lin family didn't know what to say.
The woman was stunned for a while, immersed in her thoughts, for a long time, before she seemed to suddenly wake up, raised her head and blinked, hiding some reddened eye circles, sniffed, and smiled at her reluctantly: "I don't have anything to do, you go and pay attention to Yun'er, she will run around when she is angry." ”
"Well......" nodded, the sister of the Lin family got up, paused, and finally turned around and said the comfort she had been brewing for a long time: "Don't care, Yun'er is still young, and she doesn't understand many things, and when she grows up, she will slowly understand...... Mom, I'm going back too, you pay more attention to your body......"
With that, he hurried in the direction Yuna left.
However, Yun'er disappeared faster than she expected, and when she chased her out of the hotel, there was no longer her sister around, and after asking the waiter in the court, she learned that her sister had stopped a taxi and left.
……
A taxi was waiting in front of the Anseong campus of Chung-Ang University, and Taeyeon, a short one, stood outside the gate in a somewhat dejected manner, staring at a note.
Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, she dressed up for a long time, put on her most beautiful dress again, and came to Anseong, but after some inquiry, she found that she was funny again.
"Stupid! I know that I have to take a vacation today!" "Pounding his head hard, Taeyeon burst into a foul mouth, and startled the taxi driver who was smoking comfortably with a cigarette in the air, thinking that he was scolding him!
But this time, it was not without gains.
Although it was a holiday. But there are still people in the school, when she was recklessly wandering around the campus alone, she met a very enthusiastic big brother, that big brother is said to be a cadre of the student union, anyway, it is very powerful, the other party asked her very enthusiastically who she was looking for, and after knowing the goal of Lu Dao, he was very, very enthusiastic for her to find the local address registered by Ahn Junhyuk in the school.
Before and after the saddle, she was anxious about what people were anxious about, and she was told to come to play often before saying goodbye.
That big brother is really a good guy for life!!
Thinking. She glanced at the address again. She didn't know that Junhyuk Oppa had actually bought a house here, and maybe he would stay there today!
Hesitate for a moment. The girl clenched her fists quietly—she wanted to go over and see!
……
The noise of the party is in my ears. The sun is sinking in the west. It was dark, and the lights in the room began to turn on, and neon lights flashed in a hazy glow. The sound of dance music roared, and many people played games or danced in the noise, and large glasses of beer, which were not allowed to be touched by the law, bubbled, were picked up by the cheering people, collided, and splashed amber water.
She used to play like this, but I don't know why, but now it is becoming more and more obvious that she is aware of the estrangement with these people around her, as if she has become a traditional Korean woman, and she can't accept those crazy troubles.
“Hi,Jessie!”
In a trance, someone tapped her on the shoulder, and turned her head to see that it was Julie, her friend, who was also holding a beer and holding a handsome mixed-race child in the other hand - that was probably Julie's favorite Parker!
Thinking like this, she raised her hand: "Hi!"
"Why didn't you go playing? I noticed that you've changed a lot lately, and it makes me feel like you...... Uh-" Julie seemed to have a little mouth, her cheeks flushed, and she sat down beside her, wrapping her arms around her shoulders, and the smell of alcohol came to her nose, "It feels like a ...... yes, it's like those who grew up in Korea, it's boring!"
Xiuyan smiled helplessly, and waved her hand away from her face: "How can there be, you are drunk!"
"I'm not drunk...... Parker, did you say I was drunk? Yes, yes, Jessie, this is Parker, you don't know him, do you? He's from San Francisco, too...... Hiccup......"
Faced with her somewhat drunken posture, Parker, who was called by name, shrugged his shoulders to Xiuyan, made a helpless expression, and then stretched out his hand again: "Hi, hello ......"
He was about to say something more, when the sky of night in the distance suddenly bloomed silently for a moment, the light was colorful, and after a breath, the crackling sound penetrated the noisy noise of the crowd far away and transmitted to this side.
Xiuyan looked at the distant sky, fireworks bloomed above the city, and the night sky was rendered by these brilliance blurry and gorgeous, and the colorful colors were reflected in people's eyes, seducing some kind of impulse.
Beside her, Julie, who also saw the fireworks, suddenly shouted, pounced on Parker, and shouted:
"Parker, I love you!" and kissed it hard.
Poor Parker, Julie was at least 70 pounds, and his whole body was pressed straight into the couch.
Of course, from Su-yeon's point of view, she will only be happy for her friend, at least, the other party has taken the first step bravely!
Turning his head, the fireworks in the distance were dazzling.
Under the canopy of heaven that had become almost the same romantic and beautiful, Cheongdam Cave, Yuna curled up outside the closed door of An's house, tilting her head and watching the fireworks sparkle from the other side of the corridor.
Anseong, hovering in front of a small cottage, Taeyeon looked back at the rainbow that seemed to be flashing in the clouds, and stepped on the edge of the woodland of the cottage, a little retreating.
In the villa, Lin Xiujing was humming a song, ironing a few suits on the table with an iron, and "My Name is Jin Sanshun" was playing on the TV.
Far away in Busan, on the cloudy Haeundae Bridge, Ahn Jun-hyuk carried Jisoo on his back, and a car slowly followed behind him, watching him walk into the darkness, and then into the halo of street lamps, in the far center of the city, fireworks exploded in the air, and the shadows of the city flickered in the darkness...... (To be continued......)
PS: I don't know if this chapter has written the feeling I want......
By the way, there is overtime tonight, so the second shift is postponed until tomorrow morning!
