The Shop That Delivers Dreams
reunion
옹성우
"I see you're the person who gave Woojin the wallet. Thank you."
은하
"Ah... yes."
I didn't say anything more, feeling a strange awkwardness. The feeling of having forgotten something made me miss him even more, and my heart swayed.
박우진
"Then I will step aside."
After politely greeting the man, Woojin gathered his documents. Then he smiled and spoke to the female protagonist.
박우진
"See you next time, Eunha."
Woojin closed the door and left. Left alone with Seongwoo, Eunha sat quietly, focusing on every single thing he did.
I had a feeling that even though it was definitely him I'd seen as a child, I couldn't say anything. Why on earth?
He treated her as if he knew about Eunha, but he didn't say anything directly. Seongwu cautiously sat down next to Eunha.
옹성우
"There are two reasons why I ordered you to be brought here."
As the female protagonist swallowed dry saliva, she stood up from her seat and wrote something on the blackboard.
'Dream,' he said to the female protagonist.
옹성우
"The people in this building give dreams to children who are unloved for various reasons."
옹성우
"Probably, you did too. A letter from someone was delivered properly."
옹성우
"I wanted to show that no matter who it is, everyone born into this world has the right to be loved."
Seongwoo gently grabbed Eunha's shoulder as she sat there. Eunha was slightly startled, but it was enough to convey Seongwoo's feelings.
옹성우
"...you are a token of that love. You are the result of what we have accomplished."
옹성우
"I don't think you'll understand... but if it's Eunhayang, you can do it like you did now."
옹성우
"I want to ask you to love your past and share that joy with other children. Will you join me?"
As soon as the voice actor finished speaking, Eunha slowly pulled her upper lip away. Her eyes wavered slightly, but her heart remained the same.
은하
"...I'll do it together."
It was a series of happiness.
When Eunha agreed, the voice actor held out several documents. Most of them were papers labeled as contracts and instruction manuals.
옹성우
"Please read it slowly and sign it. Then you will become part of our family."
Even the word "family" filled me with a sense of emptiness. The female protagonist wrote her name on a piece of paper.
When Sungwoo reached out to Eunha, she was taken aback, but quickly took his hand and shook it. She asked Woojin, who had just returned, to guide Yeoju.
옹성우
"While you're at it, take Eunhayang with you. Teach her the basics well."
박우진
"Yes, I understand."
Woojin grabbed Eunha's hand and pulled her towards him. As Eunha stood up, he took off the suit he was wearing and gave it to her.
박우진
"Let's go, Eunhayang."
Eunha fiddled with the suit she was wearing as she followed Woojin. A pleasant scent tickled her nostrils.
It was a pleasant, yet friendly scent.
Eunha left the room where Seongwoo had been. Following Woojin to another room, Eunha asked him for confirmation.
은하
"How can you deliver letters to children? Is it magic?"
박우진
"I'm also the kid who received a letter from the boss. So, it's like a precious secret that only the boss and I know."
Eunha let out a short exclamation. Then, standing in front of a doorway, Woojin turned around and looked at Eunha.
박우진
"But now, Galaxy will know."
박우진
"What a wonderful thing we are doing."
They stepped into the room.
박우진
"Okay, let me start with the simple things."
Eunha entered the room and carefully sat down in the chair Woojin had offered her. As Eunha sat down, Woojin placed his hand on the table and continued speaking.
박우진
"To deliver the right letter to your child, it's essential to gather information and practice writing."
박우진
"And you must not touch anything other than that child."
은하
"Why?"
When Eunha asked, Woojin sat down at the table, crossed his arms over his knees, and answered.
박우진
"Galaxy, you must have been surprised to see the president. Because you were just like when you delivered letters to me when I was little."
To be precise, the galaxy nodded quietly.
박우진
"That's the secret and power of you and me. It's why you were able to deliver the letter to us."
박우진
"...the boss doesn't age."
박우진
"With that ability, the boss was able to deliver letters to us in the past. If we wanted, we could go back in time."
박우진
"That's why you have to be especially careful when going back to the past. If the past changes, everything changes."
박우진
"After delivering the letter and returning, you'll have to adapt to the changing reality. But don't worry, it's going to be a good change."
은하
"all right."
Only then did I understand my past, and I felt fortunate to have received the letter. And then I felt relieved.
박우진
"Oh, the hourly wage is a few hundred per piece."
은하
"Huh? That much?"
A few hundred dollars an hour per job? I felt ashamed of the money I'd worked so hard to earn. I couldn't believe I was working in a place like this.
Woojin left the surprised Eunha behind and picked up something from the desk.
He put an old watch on Eunha's wrist. Then he straightened his clothes and spoke.
박우진
"Let's go deliver the letter."
Then, strangely enough-
Arrived somewhere else.
