I Quit My Job and Run a Café - Chapter 54

Episode 54
The image of a saint receiving blessings from heaven.
‘… … Would it be an exaggeration to explain it like this?’
But Kang Na-yoon’s appearance now was such that it could be said that way.
Should I say that this is the appearance of ‘Yoon-sun’ at the end of the drama Goblin Hotel when he finally released his 500-year-old grudge?
It was a sight that simply made me lose my mind… … The aura that was radiating out like that soon circled around Kang Na-yoon.
And then they flew around with a lively look, as if they had just woken up from a long sleep.
‘I was worried because there was quite a bit of aura in the blessing, but I guess I don’t need to be.’
An aura that seemed to be as big as the sheep that had entered was flying around.
It was even more splendid and clear, as if it was compensation for the curse that had oppressed them for so long.
Kuru~
The existing brownies and auras gladly welcomed the aura coming from Kang Na-yoon. The entire café was filled with aura.
Although it was a space where no music was playing, the sound of an aura that could not be heard with the ears resonated.
It was a song that contained the moonlight streaming in through the window in the ceiling.
At that moment, I was lost in the sight of a sight that was beyond words!
Crunch!
I came to my senses at the sound of everything dissipating as if it were a dream.
In the meantime, who is eating tang-hoo-lu… … Ah.
Suah, there was Sia.
“… … Why, why? Sir, do you want to have a bite?”
“Okay. You eat it. Here’s mine.”
I guess he sensed something when I stared at him intently, so he offered me something for no reason.
Thinking about that scenery from earlier, I feel regretful, but I got out at the right time, so I have no intention of saying anything.
‘The auras have all scattered, you know.’
It was just time to wake up anyway.
“It’s so, so delicious. I think I could die here without any regrets.”
“No, Sister.”
“why?”
“Because I have to film the next series of Goblin Hotel!”
Su-ah waved her finger at Kang Na-yoon, who was disappointed to see that the tteokbokki was nothing but bones, or rather, wooden skewers.
But was there a next series after Goblin Hotel?
“Huh? What’s the next series?”
“Hehe. I don’t know about that. Maybe the author is writing it?”
“What~ I thought there was another series that I didn’t know about. I wish there was one too~ If possible, maybe a goblin restaurant where you can eat delicious food.”
“Oh! This looks fun already!”
“But the writer of Goblin Hotel isn’t going to use it?”
“Yes? Why?!”
“I don’t know. If you were going to write, you would have already written it… … .”
Su-ah and Kang Na-yoon have a very interesting conversation. Thanks to that, the lingering emotions from before have completely disappeared.
“Okay, guests? It’s closing time now.”
“oh!”
It was an interesting conversation, but I can’t wait to get off work. I’ve already lost.
First of all, I had to take the kids home, so I had to go before it was too late.
“You guys should go and prepare well before it’s too late.”
“Chee. Are you going to my house to practice?”
“Whether you practice or play, you have to do it at home.”
Su-ah smacked her lips as if she felt regret.
It could mean many things, but it probably means that I feel sad about parting ways with the drink I’m receiving and the actress Kang Na-yoon who’s next to me right now.
“Um. If you don’t mind… … .”
But then, Kang Na-yoon made an unexpected request.
“Can I stay with you for just one night?”
“……yes?”
What does this mean?
* * *
Kang Na-yoon’s somewhat absurd request had perfect timing.
Right now, there are only two kids staying at Su-ah’s house, so now an adult can join them. Of course, Su-ah was happy.
Sia… … well, she wasn’t really interested, but she didn’t show any sign of disliking it.
“I wake up every morning. I stop by a cafe before going to school.”
“yes!”
I’m worried about whether I’ll be able to sleep well tonight because of Su-ah’s smiling face.
“Then please leave it to me. If anything happens, you can just let me know since we live right next door.”
“Don’t worry. It’s me who is indebted to you.”
After giving Kang Na-yoon one more request, we each went back to our homes.
Kang Na-yoon, whose curse had been lifted, entered with the children with a very bright look.
After watching his back for a moment, I also came into the house.
‘It’s amazing. I’ve already seen celebrities that are hard to see even in the city several times.’
Of course, if I had to say something unusual, I would say it’s the tiger shelter.
Anyway, as Kang Na-yoon’s aura was released from the curse, it permeated the cafe as usual.
“After the flower of talent, now it’s a curse.”
I finally solved it today, but I’m still confused in many ways.
A curse, who would have ever imagined that someone could be in such a state?
“Because each person has different things in their hearts, their conditions are different as well.”
If the condition becomes serious, talents may be broken, or you may become ill due to external reasons. There may also be a condition called a curse.
It’s still a little unfamiliar though.
Anyway, thanks to Suah, Kang Nayoon talked a lot and I understood the reason.
“Is it like the pressure I put on myself to go on a diet has become a curse…?”
It really seemed like nothing was easy.
When I see celebrities who are supposedly rich having mental illnesses like this, it makes me sad.
Of course, even if you are not a celebrity, everyone has endured emotional pain.
As did I.
In fact, that’s why I feel even more grateful for the existence of the tiger shelter.
That was because helping those people in some way gave me a strange sense of satisfaction.
It’s like it’s helping me back in the past?
‘Today is another day where I feel like it was a good idea to continue running the cafe.’
Of course, it wasn’t a free service.
Today, the Tiger Shelter has grown once again thanks to the aura that Kang Na-yoon gave.
First of all, the most noticeable thing was the change that had occurred to Ssuk-Ssuk.
─Blessing (2/2)
The number of blessings increased immediately.
Once you use it, you have to wait at least a week or so, or you have to get the aura from the guest before that… … .
Now that the number of times has increased, it seems like it could be used continuously if used well.
Because once and twice are definitely different.
Of course… …I won’t use it that often.
‘I think it would be good to use it for various things, whether it’s going out like last time or not.’
Since I have already used the blessing, I thought it would probably be useful in the future when things go well.
And one more thing.
I also acquired Kang Na-yoon’s talent.
>Kang Na-yoon’s immersion
This was another rather unusual talent.
Because… … .
‘Open your eyes.’
I closed my eyes and thought about it.
And when I opened my eyes again, I saw things I had only seen in cafes.
Blink!
“Phew─it’s short on maintenance.”
This was the talent and ability that Kang Na-yoon gave.
If you think of other talents and focus on how to use them, you can use them for a very short time.
In some ways, it could be seen as a temporary version of blessing, but there was no limit to the number of times it could be done.
of course.
“I feel like I’m losing all my strength.”
I got tired quickly because it took a lot of stamina to activate.
I guess I won’t be able to use it for long.
It is not easy to maintain in the first place, so it cannot be used for a long time.
Moreover, this can be used not only outside but also in cafes. I checked.
Sararak~
The hand that used immersion moved as if it was imbued with aura and left an afterimage.
It was a strange 3-stage dexterity that seemed fast, but also slow because of the afterimage.
In this way, I was able to take my original talent to the next level.
I wasn’t able to check everything because I was leaving work with Kang Na-yoon and the kids…
‘That alone is amazing.’
The talent itself isn’t anything special, but it’s good when used together. It’s a talent like Kang Na-yoon’s, a multi-colored bird.
Okay, so anyway. I checked everything that needed to be checked… … .
“Are the kids having fun?”
Suddenly, I wondered how everyone who had gathered at Suane was doing.
Even though it was next door, it wasn’t like an apartment building, so I couldn’t hear anything. I wonder if they would know if I opened the door and made a fuss.
But there is another way to check.
“… … You’re having fun.”
I knew this would happen.
I saw it right away when I went into Stargram.
A photo of the three, presumably taken in a room.
And the story also included a video of Kang Na-yoon practicing dancing.
Langyi was also well taken care of, taking up a good spot.
I guess there’s no need to worry at all?
At that very moment.
Jiing!
─Brother! Who is in my house!?
I also got a call from Suho asking if the game went well today.
─Sia, who is a friend of Kang Na-yoon and Su-a. Everyone is doing well.
I answered simply and turned it off.
I got a few more messages, but I ignored them. I have to watch the drama now.
Thanks to Kang Na-yoon, I thought of the drama ‘Goblin Hotel’ and turned it back on on OTT.
“oh.”
I was amazed by the product of my project that was visible from the beginning.
It was hard at the time, but looking back, it’s good. I guess it’s because I have that much free time now.
Just seeing that I can finish it like this today… … .
I relaxed on the sofa as I watched the drama quickly transform from an old, run-down thatched-roof house into a fancy hotel.
* * *
The night passed without incident. I went to work early in the morning as usual.
“hmm.”
Since I told Suah to stop by in the morning, I checked the garden first to make something for her.
But it’s strangely strange.
I know it can’t be, but does the garden feel a little empty?
‘Oh, is that because I expanded and organized it?’
Still, it’s strange. It feels a bit different from that one…
Of course, even if you take into account the expansion and organization, it still feels a bit strange.
But nothing really changed, so I thought it was just an illusion.
And actually, there was something more important right now.
That’s right… … .
“Huh? Oh… … The eggplants and pumpkins have ripened?”
The crops were bearing fruit as if they were growing too fast. Seeing this… … somehow, I felt like I was doing well.
I’m also proud that I was able to lift Kang Na-yoon’s curse yesterday.
All the thoughts I had just heard were forgotten, and only the eggplants and pumpkins came into view.
What should I make with this?
“Ah. First, let’s make something to eat before Sua goes to school.”
I was thinking of making some simple toast.
The drink is peach juice. And… … .
Ding, ding, ding
“Boss! The delivery has arrived!”
“Ah. You’re here? You must have been working hard since morning.”
“Hey, what is it? I brought you some yogurt, milk, and whatever else you need.”
Bae Jun-ho grumbled and handed over a cooler box.
It was exactly as it was in the message left yesterday.
“Thank you every time.”
“It’s okay. It’s better than the favor I received from my grandfather. Please feel free to order from me in the future.”
“I think this will do for today. Oh, if you wait a moment, I can make you some toast.”
“Haha! It’s okay. I have to go to the next place soon… … .”
“Ah. Then, just take this and eat it lightly.”
At Bae Jun-ho’s words, I quickly took out the yogurt from the box. Then I poured it into a cup and opened the canned peach.
Then, sprinkle the peach compote over the yogurt. Finally, add a little water mixed with the juice and you’re done.
[Peach Stew Yogurt]
*effect
─A sweetness that makes you feel good
─Physical and mental stability
Although the effect is no different from canned food, a decent menu has been created.
“oh!”
“Please enjoy your meal and go.”
“Thank you! I’ll enjoy it. Mmm~ It’s delicious!”
Bae Jun-ho took a bite and gave it a thumbs up.
Then he looked at the watch on his hand again and hurriedly prepared to go out.
“Then, if you need anything else next time, please call me.”
And he left before I could even say hello.
What a busy person you are.
Ding, ding, ding
As I was looking at the place where Bae Jun-ho had left, the door opened again.
“Boss, we’re here~”
“hello.”
Then Kang Na-yoon, Su-ah, and Sia came in.
Su-ah and Sia look sleepy at first glance, while Kang Na-yoon looks lively.
“You look in good spirits?”
“That’s right. Isn’t there something really amazing? Is the air here good? Should I tell you something even more amazing?”
“Is that surprising?”
“Yes! Right away~ Ta-da!”
“… … What is it?”
I wonder if I ate something wrong. Or if I got infected with Su-ah’s diarrhea the whole night.
Kang Na-yoon immediately put a flower petal on her face and thrust it at me.
Of course, the face of the actress, especially the top-class actress, was incredibly beautiful. Should I say she was the epitome of a fox-like beauty?
But this is a bit… … .
“Hey, what is that? That reaction. Look at this, it’s not swollen at all?”
Kang Na-yoon turned her head from side to side as if she was dumbfounded by my reaction.
Oh, and I see for sure! I ate and slept like that yesterday, but I wasn’t swollen at all.
Is this the actress’s ability?
Sua and Sia… … .
“Huh!”
It’s really swollen?
“Eww! Why are you laughing!”
Su-ah got upset when she saw Kang Na-yoon laughing at her after taking turns looking at her.
Even so, he was cute because his eyes were swollen.
“So?”
“That’s why, that’s not true. There was a time when I was filming a reality show and was completely humiliated. I ate ramen at night and went to bed, and the next day… … .”
Anecdotes that come out every now and then, whether it’s because I’m in a good mood or not.
At that moment, I was flustered by Kang Na-yoon’s sudden TMI!
Dingle~ Dingle~
“Kang Na-yoon!”
“uh!?”
“you!”
A person who looked like a manager to anyone who saw him came in.
I wish you would take him away soon.
