If You Raise Three Idols Well, They Will Confess Their Love - Chapter 190
190 – Not All Plans Go as Planned
Episode 190
Ga Eul, who ran into me in the hallway of Two Bear, looked at me with joy and greeted me cheerfully, then carefully asked me a favor.
“Oppa Taeyang, this time Gahyeon said she would like to participate in an information session regarding the entrance exam for arts high school. Is it okay if I help Gahyeon from the side?”
I calmly answered Autumn’s request.
“Well, of course. Just tell me the time. “I will talk to the boss and adjust your schedule.”
When I obediently gave permission, Ga Eul smiled slightly and said while looking at me.
“That… “Then, can Taeyang join you on that day?”
“That won’t work?”
“… Yes?”
Autumn’s complexion turned blue.
It seemed like he wasn’t expecting this answer from me at all.
Well, if I had been asked this kind of request before, I would have made time to accompany Gaeul even if it meant staying up all night, so I thought the result might be different from what I expected.
But now it had to change.
I spoke calmly and realistically with those thoughts in mind.
“I know that this is a really important time for Gahyeon, and I agree that she needs a guardian, so I will also try to make time for you. And it doesn’t end with effort, I will make time no matter what happens. Because I promised I would and that’s what I’m going to do. But I don’t think there’s any reason to spend two people’s time on that briefing session. “That briefing session doesn’t require authority, does it?”
“…”
“Next time, Gaeul, I think it would be better for me to take on the role of substitute, such as going in your place when it is difficult for you to go. That’s also reasonable. You and I have important roles in this company, right? “It would be too risky for the two of us to be away at the same time.”
Ga Eul pursed her lips as if speechless by my realistic words.
From noble mtl dot come
Then he looked at me with trembling eyes and spoke earnestly.
“That… , Can you still come with me? I think it would be very reassuring if Taeyang oppa goes with us. Without Taeyang oppa…”
I firmly cut off the conversation.
“No, autumn.”
“…”
“You have done well without me and are doing well.” And I will continue to do well.”
She really doesn’t have long left until she becomes an adult.
It wasn’t a good idea for her to continue to treat him like a child.
“Well, I believe you understand that this is going to be the way it goes. Rest assured, I’ll talk to the boss about it. Cheer up for today’s schedule as well.”
She said that, turned around, and left for her next task.
Ga Eul’s face her her her, which I saw for the last time before turning away, looked quite dangerous, but that level of embarrassment was unavoidable. It was impossible for there to be no reaction to slowly settling into a healthy relationship.
Still, the current method did not seem to be wrong.
In this way, we distinguish between public and private matters by drawing appropriate lines.
If this attitude was maintained, it seemed that the children would gradually accept the reality that their current relationship was very distorted without much damage.
So I maintained the same attitude toward summer.
“Hey, Team Leader Seon. My father said he would like to meet me one more time to talk about sponsorship investment. Do you have time? “This time, a new chef came to the VIP room of our hotel restaurant, and I think it would be nice to have a chat while enjoying a light meal there.”
“Hmm… , I guess it must be difficult?”
When I, who always nodded to such requests, refused, Yeoreum spoke with obvious embarrassment.
“That… , It’s not that difficult or stressful, so it’ll be okay! Because I will be by your side too. It would be nice to think that you just eat comfortably and lightly…”
“Summer. Talking about investment with the main sponsor is definitely not something that can be taken lightly.”
I have always been serious and serious.
No matter how much he is said to be the father of the idol in charge… No, on the contrary, that’s why I had to show my best side even more.
“It is impossible for me to take on such an important matter lightly. Considering the scale of the investment in the first place, it is too big of a task for a single team leader to handle.”
“But… , But my father also likes seeing Team Leader Seon…”
“Thank you. In that case, I will take the time in advance, prepare the materials properly, and then speak to you in the form of a report. Of course, I will set the time. During regular meetings, the boss will formally explain and discuss matters. So Summer, you don’t have to worry about such things. It’s okay. Because it’s my job to help you focus solely on your idol career and enjoy it.”
“…”
“Isn’t this a sufficient explanation regarding sponsor investment? Well then, I’ll go do the rest of the work. Cheer up for today’s schedule, summer.”
That response was no different for Gyeoreum.
“Womb… , Teacher Taeyang! This time, my favorite mobile game opened a collaboration cafe. Could you please join us?”
“No.”
“… “It’s a tragedy.”
I think it was a little different, but it wasn’t much different.
***
Seok Hyun-woo, who was working on the backlog of paperwork with me in the office, asked.
“Now that I think about it, Team Leader Seon, haven’t you been on an external schedule recently with the children?”
It was true. Because I intentionally avoided it.
But it wasn’t without excuses.
“I did. However, I think that is the right direction. “We hired two additional road managers, so it would almost be like a waste of manpower for me to do that on-site work.”
“Still, won’t the ladies be lonely? … To be honest, I didn’t say it, but the girls’ tension is different when Team Leader Sun accompanies them to the site and when he doesn’t. “It means that Team Leader Seon’s company is a source of strength to the girls.”
I smiled bitterly and answered.
“Thank you. Really.”
But we couldn’t continue like that.
“But it has to change. We also need to use the case of the girls’ revolution as a representative example to raise other idols, expand our business, and grow Two Bear more and more. It’s something I will experience someday, and that’s just it for now.”
“It may be a story that Team Leader Sun, one of the centers of Two Bear, has faced, but it feels far away to me.”
“Why are you stepping away? If I move up, the next team leader is Deputy Chief Seok?”
“… Yes? Me?”
“Yes, Deputy Director Seok.”
Seok Hyeon-woo muttered something like, ‘Is it okay for me to be straddling the Jin River?’
It was a story with nothing to worry about. Because everyone at Two Bear, including Cheon A-ram, already knows that fact.
“But, it’s a shame. “I can’t believe I can no longer see Team Leader Seon in the field.”
“If it’s because of the entertainment filming schedule, I will definitely stop by the site in the future.”
“Still. “I think manager Sun Taeyang is cool.”
I scratched my head and spoke with many emotions at Seok Hyeon-woo’s high praise.
“It can’t be helped.” Because this is the right direction.”
***
That kind of time continued.
“Oppa Taeyang, come with me for a moment…”
“Team Leader Seon. This time I…”
“Teacher Taeyang. The collaboration cafe has expanded in size this time…”
My response was the same.
“I’m sorry, Ga Eul. I appreciate the offer, but it seems difficult to find time right now. “I’ll make time next time.”
“It would be a bit difficult for me to participate in such social gatherings of conglomerates. “How about talking to the boss instead?”
“No.”
Gradually, such demands from children decreased.
Perhaps, it seemed like he was gradually accepting his current relationship.
… I thought so until just yesterday.
As soon as I got to work, I had to experience the screams coming from each part.
“Team Leader Seon! At some point, Mr. Winter lost his smile. It’s entertainment! … No, that’s just the attitude controversy, but he shed tears without any context during the filming! Like a patient with bipolar disorder! And because of that, I am currently being secretly pressured by both the producer and the writer to ask if I am mistreating or harassing the child! I don’t know how to deal with it. Please save me!”
“Road manager Park Young-chan, I will report to you on emergency work. It looks like Summer has anorexia. He was very professional when it came to things like weight control and nutritional control, so I didn’t pay enough attention to him. But recently, I felt like the camera showed her looking too thin, so I checked and found that Yeoreum wasn’t eating at all and was only drinking water! She knew that and she tried to force feed her, but she just kept spitting it up. “I don’t think this is something I can handle.”
“…”
It was a series of contents that made my head dizzy.
… Could it be that this happened because I treated it like a businessman?
No… , That can’t be possible.
There’s no way my kids would do this just because they barely talked to me, right?
They are strong children who rose up and reached the top despite unbelievable tragedies and adversities that would have knocked them down long ago if other people had been there.
You’ve endured all that pain, but you can’t even endure being treated without me?
It can’t be like that, right?
As I was thinking about that and thinking about how to handle things, someone carefully approached me from behind.
When I checked who it was, it turned out to be Shin Yu-rim, the road manager in charge of Gaeul.
“I… , Team Leader Seon. “I have something to report to you.”
I felt like I had had an accident as I was shivering and breaking out in a cold sweat.
I asked Shin Yu-rim, feeling intense anxiety.
“Is something happening to Gaeul?”
Then Shin Yu-rim closed her eyes tightly and spoke, sweating profusely.
“… Gaeul has no voice.”
“…”
“I think it’s due to mental reasons. “What should I do?”
… Are they strong kids?
