Healer

In the morning, Imsoo and his men broke into the dormitory. At dawn, someone had connected to the police station via the Internet. Once, a singer reported via his phone and then got caught and disappeared without a sound. After that, Giha kept track of monthly calls. This incident proved that the idea that the Internet was safe was wrong. The computer was confiscated in the end, even after the interrogation of Imsoo, he said he did not know. Complaints erupted everywhere. The old man spit out curses with a ferocious face.

“Shut up. You eunuch bastards! Before I cut off all the rest of the fucking head! You don’t thank me for feeding you, but want to fucking act up instead.”

The young men shrank like their poor scrotum. As soon as the idiots disappeared, Marijuana grinded his teeth.

“I must get bigger balls than that bastard!”

“I’m going to ask for one the size of an ostrich egg!”

While everyone was in harmony, Yaba also agreed soundlessly. After that, he searched for the culprit among eunuchs, but the real culprit could not be revealed.

The whole morning was confusing for a while, but in the afternoon, an incident occurred that made Giha have an even more shitty expression on his face. Cocaine, the center of Paradiso, a key source of income, and even had a doctor attached, was infected with the cold virus, humanity’s greatest enemy. Sure, he couldn’t sing, and an important reservation was about to be cancelled.

“Executive Director Cha asked me to let you go. I promised to let you go. Trust is life here.”

Cocaine was calm despite Giha’s freaking out.

“You know that singing in this state will make your throat worse. If you go there, the air is turbid, so it’s better to just take a day off. I’ll tell Cha Yiseok well. He’s not that uptight, so I’ll be fine.”

Yaba’s hands were wiping off the mask, but his attention was focused on their conversation. If Cocaine does not go, the reservation will be cancelled. Then he wouldn’t be able to see Cha Yiseok today. Wouldn’t be able to see him. Yaba bit his lip to appease his nervousness.

Giha sighed and pulled out his phone. After a while, he handed the phone to Cocaine, and Cocaine answered the phone in bewilderment.

“Hello. Mr. Cha. I’m sorry. I suddenly caught a cold… No, I’m fine now.”

Cocaine ended the call and returned the phone to its owner. After finishing the call, Giha kicked the trash can in the living room. And he spoke to them in a low voice.

“He told me to send you guys, so go ahead first, Cocaine, follow me.”

The young men looked sympathetically at Cocaine being dragged away like a criminal. Everyone thought that Cocaine just had a cold, but in fact, Yaba’s sincerity was finally paying off. The eunuch singers pretend to be concerned but they too would want to poison Cocaine, and should have been lucky to have someone set an example like this. Not only was Cocaine trampled on by Giha, he could also see Cha Yiseok today, today was really lucky for Yaba. Yaba kept coughing as the blood from his heart went to his lungs.

“What are you laughing at? You like seeing Cocaine being dragged out?”

He turned his head to see Morphine staring at him. Yaba didn’t say a word and spread moisturising cream on his skin.

“Stop it! You wash, dry, smear cream several times a day! Because of you, the water bill costs dozens a month!”

“That’s why I pay more for living expenses. What does it matter if I use the cream I bought with my own money?”

“Still, use it sparingly! People these days don’t know how to save. Look at this. You took out a new one yesterday and there’s only half a can left. Where the hell are you putting all this stuff? Your skin is pitiful.”

Yaba got up slowly and glared at Morphine. Everyone got anxious when Cocaine wasn’t present. It’s the same with Yaba. He wanted to be free of Cocaine, but he also didn’t want it. So he understood them, but he couldn’t stand them picking fights regarding his appearance.

“Don’t blabber. I also want to cut off some of this flesh too.”

“C-cut what? What is there to cut…”

“From now on, keep your mouth under control. Your mouth is next. You better lock the door when you sleep.”

Yaba entered the room and slammed the door shut. There were items on his desk, sheets and pillows he randomly put in the trash. Ha… ha… he was out of breath. When a large amount of oxygen was supplied and the body temperature became hot, it became a good environment for insects to thrive. Yaba used his jiggling forearm and scratched the nape of his neck until it bled. Suddenly, he heard laughter from the other side.

“That, that madman! Wahh… ! Anyway, there are so many things that make people go crazy. Some people boast a crazy presence, and some people go crazy that they exist? I’m going to die because of people like that?”

“Knowing that, why are you even arguing with him?”

“Ah really, it’s unsettling… That bastard is not gonna rip my mouth with scissors, is he? I think I’ll lock the door and sleep from now on.”

“What bullshit… Don’t you know that you can’t bring scissors into the dorm?”

“Where will that bastard get something like that?”

“By the way, are we the only ones going today? What do we do without Cocaine…”

The singers sighed from across the door. Everyone loved Cocaine. Without Cocaine, everyone was anxious. It was only safe to hold his name in your mouth like a prayer. Yaba was ready to love Cocaine as much as possible. He could be generous with the thief who stole Hyungwook, his brother, and even his songs. One day, when Cocaine is completely gone, then he will love him with all his heart.
