What Could This Email Be?
Minjae's day off passed by in a blur. He didn't do much except sleep for 12 hours and when he woke up, he ate and just scrolled through his phone.
Seated at the corner of his bed, Minjae's eyes were frozen at the pile of clothes in the corner of his apartment.
"What am I even going to do with all of this?" he muttered, a hint of regret surfacing. He couldn't help but frown. He didn't think of this clearly enough.
Minjae forgot that his apartment was small and that it only had a single cabinet to house all his clothes. Now he's stuck with new clothes that he didn't know where to put.
"Should I throw away all my previous clothes?" Minjae asked. He felt bad since those came from the original Minjae's hard work. However, not even a few seconds when he changed his mind.
"No, that would make me an absolute jerk." He sighed. "How about donating it instead? I guess the Original Minjae would like that better."
Even though he was wealthy in his previous life, Minjae always valued doing charity. That was the reason why he always donated a portion of his earnings to different organizations.
"I hope the money I saved during my whole career will be put into good use." Remembering it, Minjae could only think positively.
"I also hope that the people working under me have been compensated well. I know my parents could be greedy sometimes, but I knew they wouldn't mistreat those people."
Minjae had a lot of people working under him. From Donghyun, his own assistant, to the workers in his apartment, and the staff that made his everyday life easier.
Minjae's only wish was that they live a good life even if he was gone already. One day, he knew he'd be able to see those people again.
But right now, he gotta focus on the present.
There was also an update regarding his case.
The police now had a few leads after reviewing multiple surveillance cameras around the area and searching the burned car thoroughly. It was just that, the progress has been so slow, that it was frustrating him and his fans.
"Well, if anything, I hope they solve it as soon as possible," he thought with a bittersweet smile.
'Would you believe it if I say I'm not even mad?' Minjae let out a heavy sigh. "I just want to ask a lot of questions."
Minjae was more curious about why all of this happened. He couldn't even be mad since he doesn't have anyone to blame.
"I want to hear the reasons first, at least… or a closure. It's not only for me but for the people who supported me. They deserve better than all the rumours and half-truths." Minjae sat quietly for a moment before his gaze landed on the pile of clothes, once again.
"Alright, time to fix this mess."
With that thought in mind, Minjae grabbed his laptop. A laptop that should be considered a relic at this point.
The screen of the laptop was only connected to its keyboard by a single wire. Just one fall, and he was sure that this laptop would be dead.
"I've got an ancient phone, and an even older laptop. I quite have a fortunate life, don't I?" Minjae joked, shaking his head followed by a sad chuckle.
Minjae waited for a whole 10 minutes for the laptop to start. When the home screen finally appeared, Minjae opened the searching engine, Boodle.
And yes, he had to wait another minute just for it to open up.
Afterward, Minjae searched for local donation centers, hoping to find a nearby place to drop off the clothes. After a few searches, he found a nearby charity but decided to email them first to confirm if they were accepting.
Opening his email, Minjae's eyes immediately caught sight of a new message at the top of his inbox. It was sent to him just a few hours ago.
[From: Flex Entertainment.]
Minjae's heart skipped a beat while his eyes widened. It was the first reply he had received after sending his professional headshots to numerous agencies.
"What on earth…" he muttered. He clicked the email in haste. As the message loaded, his mind raced.
What could this email be?
"Fuck…"
The email loaded at a frustratingly slow pace, each second stretching Minjae's patience. After a few more seconds, it finally opened up.
[Subject: Invitation for a Meeting with Flex Entertainment]
"A meeting? Already?" Minjae's forehead creased. Didn't he just send his application yesterday? That was rather quick.
