Episode 213

Could it be the power of perilla leaf mojito?

The young firefighter told the story of that day, as if he had not only opened up his mind but also opened his blocked mouth.

“He was a horse that was a bit faster than me. He was usually a bit of a clumsy person, so people around him were worried.”

“I guess so, since it is something that is directly related to life.”

“Yes. Anyway, that’s why my senior was worried a lot, but I believed that he was a person with a strong sense of responsibility. He was also a person with a strong sense of pride in his work.”

When I was working at a company, if there was someone like that among my subordinates, I would feel uneasy, but I would at least try to trust them as if they were my senior.

Of course, that was just my position as someone who worked mostly in the office.

First of all, life safety was not at risk.

The firefighters probably had more things to worry about than that.

It seems like the choice of a senior person would not have been easy.

But when I first heard the results, it seemed like that choice was the cause of the accident.

Then, it seemed a little understandable that it was that way.

“We were fortunate enough to be able to extinguish the fire when we arrived at the scene, and we were now in the process of clearing up the scene. Of course, we received a report that the fire had been extinguished. However.”

“There were places that were less evolved.”

“Yes. To be exact, as demonstrated today, it was a case where it appeared to have evolved on the outside, but the fire inside remained the same. Unfortunately, that person was in charge of that area, and he missed it.”

“There must have been an accident.”

“We were a bit unlucky. There was something explosive next to the fire. While we were cleaning up the scene, the fire came back to life and my senior and that guy got trapped in the explosion caused by the fire.”

“this.”

I guess it was a bigger accident than I thought. That’s why it happened like that.

Even if it is a job where you are constantly exposed to such things, it seems like it feels different when it actually happens.

I can’t really sympathize or understand, though, because I’ve never been in that situation.

“After that day, my senior became a little more sensitive. He doesn’t just do that to us, but also to himself.”

“Me too?”

“Yes. Actually, that’s the bigger problem. You can tell that he’s suffering inside. If he had checked it again at that time, that accident wouldn’t have happened.”

“Isn’t that something you don’t know? After all, it’s an accident.”

“That’s right. No matter how hard we try, we can’t prevent all accidents. But I think that’s not the case for you, senior. You saw your colleagues get hurt right in front of you, so it makes sense. So everyone understands. If you know that and realize that you overdid it, you take care of it like this.”

“hmm.”

The target of his anger was himself.

It was a little unexpected, but I understood.

It’s hard to understand how it affects other people, but it’s understandable that it’s the cause of behavior.

“Maybe you should go to a hospital for some kind of consultation? Could it be something like PTSD that requires treatment?”

“I think you’re already looking into it. But if that happens, it’ll be hard to continue doing this… .”

The guest didn’t finish speaking, but I knew what he meant.

It’s probably not just a problem for that profession.

It’s something that can happen to anyone, anywhere.

Because I feel like I can’t perform normal tasks.

But that doesn’t mean you can’t get treatment if you need it.

It occurred to me that it would be nice if there was some sort of guarantee that proper treatment would be administered when something like that happened.

But what if you are judged to be unable to perform your duties?

“Fortunately, there was a related program, so he said he had already applied. And, really, really fortunately, we recently received a call that the injured person was not in danger of dying.”

“I’m so glad.”

It seems like you’re already doing what I was thinking.

I’m really glad that there was no such thing in the industry I used to work in.

“So, is it okay now?”

Su-ah listened quietly from the side and then asked.

“Then it would be best.”

The guest smiled and answered Su-ah like that.

It was something that could not be guaranteed.

I heard that treatment for psychological shock is not easy.

Still, it was a bit hopeful because it seemed like he was aware of his condition and was trying to improve.

And even though there was still no definitive answer, I could clearly see the customer’s wish for it to be so.

I can’t not make this, can I?

“I’ll make you a drink. Oh, and it won’t taste good if the carbonation goes away on the way, so should I measure it out separately so that you can mix it when you get there?”

“Oh! That would be so much appreciated.”

I decided to make it right away.

If this helps, by all means.

It didn’t happen while I was doing something else. It happened while I was working at a fire scene.

That in itself was important, whether professionally or as a sense of mission.

Because it is dangerous and very dangerous.

So, it was rather an honor to be able to provide this kind of help.

It would have been better if that senior had come here. Even if he hadn’t come, I could have made it at least to this extent.

‘I can’t guarantee the effect though.’

Anyway, it wasn’t completely meaningless since the material had an effect.

And if we think about indirect impacts, perhaps another new way arises.

“I’ll make it so you can grind the perilla leaves yourself like we did before, so would you like to try that too?”

“Huh? That would be fine too. I don’t know if you’ll do it though.”

“Try it once, it can relieve stress too.”

I don’t know if I’ll do it or not, but it doesn’t seem like a bad idea to try.

If you say you don’t want to do it, there’s a way to do it in front of them like a performance.

I thought it was a good idea since you might not even want to drink the drink itself.

“Wouldn’t it be good to make a demonstration video for this?”

“Huh? A demo video?”

“Yes! It would be boring to just explain it with words, so I think it would be good to make a video and show it to you!”

Then Su-ah gave her opinion.

After hearing it, I thought it was a good idea, so I went to see the customer.

“That would be good too. I guess I’ll learn it anyway, just in case.”

I agreed with that.

Then I have to record the method of making it in a video… … .

“Me! Take a picture of me! I know how to do it!”

“Huh? Suah, you?”

“yes!”

“why?”

“Big~! Ahem! Of course, it would be nice if I, who am cute and pretty, would tell you through a video!”

what.

Did you just say with your own mouth that you are cute and pretty?

He didn’t even say that in a shy manner, but rather held his shoulders high.

Is there another child in the world with such high self-esteem?

I had that thought, but I didn’t show it.

Anyway, it’s not wrong.

When I appeared on video, it was literally audiovisual material.

But what if Su-ah comes out?

‘I don’t know if it exists, but it feels like my daughter is telling me.’

The age difference was just like that.

Even if you are not married and do not have children, if you see a video of your daughter acting cute, your eyes will be drawn to it once more.

I don’t know if Su-ah would feel burdened, but if she said she wanted to do it first, there was no reason not to.

“If I leave these embellishments behind, they will be released one by one after I debut, right?”

“… … So that’s why it seems pure but isn’t.”

I heard the real purpose of Soo-ah’s words as she came closer and whispered, but I just laughed because she was cute.

Even if you say it like that, it doesn’t mean it’s true.

“If you’re here, Seon-ah, ask her to take a picture of you.”

“Seon-ah? Why don’t you call me?”

“Hey, no.”

“Huh? Why?”

“Seon-ah, are you on a date with Do-yoon?”

“Are you two dating? Are you two in a relationship?”

“Huh? You didn’t know?”

Of course I didn’t know because I didn’t say anything.

Of course, it seemed like there was something going on between the two, but they’re really dating.

So are you two dating now before you break up?

Because it might be hard to see Kang Do-yoon once he goes up soon.

Of course, there was also a way for Lee Sun-ah to go up together.

He’s not someone who’s always lived here, and he’s lived in the city for a long time, so it won’t be hard for him to adapt.

Well, I’ll take care of that, but right now we just need some time alone, right?

“Then I’ll take the picture for you.”

“Hey, sir? Can you take a good picture of it? I’ll leave the video behind.”

“Huh? You’re saying there’s some left?”

“Of course~ I’m going to post it on Stargram?”

“… … You’ve drawn a really big picture.”

I’ll have to take half of the expected purity away.

In the end, I promised myself to film it well and decided to make a video of how to make a non-alcoholic perilla leaf mojito.

‘Analysis, planning.’

Originally, there was no need to do this, but since Suah wanted to help, I used my talents to first set the background and composition of the video.

“This place would be nice.”

“Huh? Why? You suddenly seem like an expert?”

“I learned it from the filming crew that came before.”

“aha!”

Well, that’s not wrong.

After I decided on the background and composition, I now decided on the camera position to capture the scene with Su-ah and the manufacturing process.

“Okay. Okay. Just do it the way I told you earlier. If you don’t know, ask.”

“Okay! Then~ Let’s start making Suah’s non-alcoholic perilla leaf mojito~!”

A video was filmed of Sua making a perilla leaf mojito with her cheerful voice.

Sua’s comments here and there made the video brighter and more fun.

“Just think of the person or thing that stresses you out and press hard like this!”

I’ve never said anything like that… … .

Anyway, the video ended with comments that really focused the audience.

“You can watch the footage here!”

“Stargram? Huh? You really have a lot of followers?”

“Hehehe!”

And Sua also showed off her followers by sharing her Instagram.

It’s not that it wasn’t, but Sua’s followers who had grown quite a bit were something to brag about.

Although he wasn’t a celebrity yet, it was true that he had some level of recognition.

‘Thanks to the photos taken while filming the music video, the number of views for the previously uploaded performance video also increased.’

There were even people who called themselves fans.

The young firefighter guest followed and looked at Su-ah’s SNS as if he was curious.

In the meantime, I made a drink milk kit.

I originally planned to make just one, but then I thought about it and realized that there must be more than one firefighter going through something like this.

The symptoms will not be the same.

Some people may feel resentful towards themselves, and others may feel depressed.

Even if I don’t drink tea, I’m sure everyone is under a lot of mental stress.

It wasn’t a problem to simply increase the number of things that had already been made.

Because you just have to increase the quantity.

There are also plenty of ingredients available.

‘After combining the talents of the natives and overcoming the wall, there has never been a shortage of crops in the garden.’

So I used it generously and generously.

“Huh? Why so many?”

“If you’re going to do it, share it with everyone.”

“ah!”

“And I won’t take any money for this.”

“Yes? No, you don’t have to do that.”

“Don’t feel pressured because you didn’t order it. You taught me so hard today. I’m grateful for that.”

At my words, the young firefighter blushed slightly and looked embarrassed.

But fortunately, they didn’t refuse me outright and accepted my service.

“Then I will gratefully make it and eat it.”

“Yes. Please make sure to show Sua the video.”

“Haha! Yes.”

A guest carrying a package greeted them and prepared to leave.

Su-ah shouted at him urgently.

“You have to follow me too! And like me too!”

“Haha! Okay.”

At those words, I shook my head, and the guest left with a big laugh.

* * *

How long has it been since the young firefighter guest left?

I think it’s about time for business to close.

Clear and bright auras came to the cafe.

But the auras that came this time gave off a strange feeling.

What should I say?

Should I say that they are similar to Sujeong?

▶Kim Byeong-gwan’s introspection

One of them seeped into me and absorbed my talent.

It was the talent of someone with a familiar name.
