Chapter 5

When the unusually cold and long winter passed and spring came, Jay became a civil servant at the recommendation of her uncle.

My uncle, who thought I thought was a businessman, was a public servant, and he lied that he was doing business around the world because it was a job that involved secret information, and only checked whether he was alive or not.

After all, Jay had no family, few of her relatives used to live with little contact, and after the funeral, she lived like a nuisance, and her friends and colleagues were all out of touch. She didn’t have to fake her private life.

However, since there were many neighbors who had known each other since they lived in the same neighborhood for a long time, she decided to ask her uncle to sell the house.

When she first thought about selling a house, Jay hesitated for a while because it was a place with her family, but the house was ridiculously big to live alone and the memories with her family were everywhere, so I decided to sell it because Jay, who still misses it, was painful.

It happened in an instant when I sold my parents’ house and left the neighborhood where I lived for a long time and went into an apartment near Seoul. It was all thanks to my uncle who helped me get back on my feet.

I stayed with my uncle for a few days before moving in, and talked a lot while organizing the things that my family had left behind.

I couldn’t even put them in the old clothes collection box, so I took all the clothes I was supposed to dispose of out of my closet, put them in boxes, and exchanged stories.

“My mother told me that my maternal grandfather passed away when my uncle was a baby. My mother said it was a little bit of a memory with my maternal grandfather, but he would never remember it, so it always bothers me.”

He sighed as he puts the clothes so that Jay’s half-height standard envelope was full and attached a box tape to prevent the barely tied entrance from bursting.

“Sister and I we’re the eldest, just like you.”

“My sister nagged me more than my grandmother.”

“But she didn’t say much when you said you were going out to do business abroad.”

“I couldn’t stop contacting her completely.”

Laughing bitterly, he tightly taped the large box and placed it next to the door.

Jay, who holds a box in one hand and picks up the clothes with the other, told her uncle to open the entrance of the box completely with her hands, and then lifted the pile of clothes all at once and forced it into the box.

Having been a model student until middle school without any trouble, he had gone through late puberty after entering high school.

He was not able to fight, so he hung out with the wrong crowd and didn’t go to school properly.

His mother and sister found him wandering the streets at night several times, tried to scold him, cried and begged him, but each time he turned away without listening.

However, thanks to my mother and sister who never gave up on him, he barely got a high school diploma, but he couldn’t go to college.

After graduating from high school, he lived in a state of confusion for a while then heard the news of his mother’s death.

When he entered the funeral hall, his pale sister, like a corpse, sat alone in an empty place.

With trembling steps, he approached her and said, “Sister…” When I called her, she began to frown and sob.

My mother had had some problems with her blood pressure a few years ago, but she went to the hospital regularly and took medicine.

On a seemingly normal day, she suddenly collapsed while preparing dinner with her sister and died.

His sister’s sorrowful face was engraved in his mind.

Having come to his senses, he has decided to live a decent life.

“I couldn’t imagine uncle was such a troublemaker”

The warm spring sunshine filled the room behind Jay, whining and leaving the room with the boxes in her arms, one by one.

Jay held a civil service card hanging around her neck and read the words written next to the photo in a small voice.

“Level 8 Special Administrative Assistant, Jay.”

There’s a series like this.

“Special administrative assistant position”

I can feel the power of assisting lawmakers or presidents in a way. I feel a spy after having to change my old name.

“The explanation that uncle gave me was its like being a housewife who taking care of their child.”

I’ve felt the scent of a housewife several times from my uncle.

As she was contacted by the commissioner a few days ago, Jay made her first appearance at an office located in a secluded area in Seoul.

Knowing that she was well on her way, she set off for two hours in 40-50 minutes, but was also able to get there on time after wandering around.

It was fortunate that she didn’t make a bad impression of being late from the first day.

I have already been waiting for an hour after the desk staff told me to wait in the waiting room for a while, handing over my official ID card and a thick sealed document envelope.

Sitting so long that by the time I felt my hips were asleep, someone came into the waiting room. It was a bit of a cold-looking guy in a suit.

“Nice to meet you, Jay. I’m Kay, your supervisor.”

“Yes, Hello. I look forward to your kind cooperation.”

Kay, Jay, I feel like I need to get a rhyme.

“We don’t have a separate office here, so we walk and talk.”

First, Jay followed Kay straight out of the waiting room.

He opened his mouth glancing at her.

“You must’ve heard some explanation from your uncle, but as you know, we’re on duty. You have all the guides in the booklet with your official card..”

Looking down at the thick envelope I was holding, Jay focused again on Kay, who was leading the way.

“We’re taking the form of a foster home for a while, but there are a few different parts of the legal adoption process, and you can’t actually entrust a single person without a relevant license.. Be careful not to cause friction or confusion with your acquaintances about this part”

Jay nodded slightly, expressing that she knew it because she had heard it from her uncle beforehand.

“We don’t know how long your task will take.. The notice of completion of the work will be issued from the higher ups the time it is deemed appropriate and will be notified approximately three days before the completion of the notice. The average duration of an assistant is three to five years, which is just the average figure, and sometimes it ends as early as a year or goes as long as 20 years.”

“If you keep him for that long, its almost like raising a child..”

Kay, who was walking in a businesslike manner, stopped and looked back at Jay.

Kay’s voice, which had previously been so rigid in business, had softened slightly.

“I told you that everything in the guide is important, and all that is contained in it. The most important thing is to put all your affection on the child…”

Walking back down the street, Kay said, “Until their souls return, pour out all the affection you can give them. So that the wounded, cracked and broken soul will have a new life.”

Kay, who arrived at a dead end, put his left five fingers on the fingerprint reader and pressed the password with his right hand.

“Our job is to heal the dying soul, Jay.”

The lock was lifted and the automatic door opened.

Jay ran into the black eyes of a child sitting on a sofa in a secret room.

The child had white skin like snow. The spotless clean skin looked brighter and clear.

Unlike her hair, which is slightly brown when it is lit, the child had very black hair, but with white skin, he looked like snow white.

How pretty, Jay exclaimed in her heart.

Is that baby angel?

Oh, my God. I’ve never seen such a pretty child in my life.

She even became nervous about whether wings would rise from the child’s back and fly away at any moment.

“This is Mr. Ludwig Landgel, who will be assisted by Jay in the future.

“Rud.. lud… What?”

I thought for a moment that he might be mixed race because of his pure white skin and features that are hard to see in the East, but Jay made a strange sound at the unfamiliar foreign name that suddenly popped out.

“This is Ludwig Landgel from the Kronos Empire. The Kronos Empire is in another dimension that doesn’t exist on Earth. You have to learn how to communicate with him. This is also written on the document I sent you with the guidebook, so please go back and refer to it.”

I thought I knew it to a certain extent, but now hearing this, I wanted to take out the guide or document in my bag and read it.

“He’s from another dimension and doesn’t understand Korean… Will the child come to follow me, a stranger?”

It was so nice to be in charge of a beautiful child like an angel, but I was worried that he might be afraid of strangers.

“Come closer and show a sincere smile. If it works, he’ll follow you wherever it may be.”

The child seemed to be about six or seven years old, and usually children of that age are somewhat aware to watch out for unfamiliar adults.

I looked at Kay suspiciously and looked back at the child.

The child has never taken his eyes off Jay since the moment the door opened.

Jay slowly approached the sofa with eye contact and sat down on one leg in front of the child.

The sofa was a little high for the child, but his feet were slightly off the floor.

Even the scene was cute to Jay.

“Hello. I’m Yoon In.. No, Jay.”

Jay, who almost said her original name at the moment, immediately corrected it.

Even though he couldn’t understand it, Jay talked calmly as if he was understanding what she was saying

“From today on, we’ll be together in my house. Please take care of me.”

Jay let out a big smile and held out her right hand in front of the child to ask for a handshake.

After looking at Jay’s eyes for a long time, the child slowly raised his hand and held Jay’s right hand.

At the hands of a small warm child, Jay somehow felt as if she was touching a newborn puppy, and her heart felt a little ticklish.
