He answered the call, steadying his uneasy heart.
“Yes, Father.”
- Joorim, where are you?
“Ah… I’m nearby, so there’s no need to worry…”
- Grandfather, Guru wants to talk to Daddy too!
- Yes, come here.
“Guru?”
- Yes! Daddy, you have to come quicklyyy!
“Why aren’t you sleeping?”
- The lights kept flickering, so I couldn’t read my book. It got dark.
“That won’t happen anymore.”
- Why not? Why won’t it?
“Because Daddy heard your voice.”
- The flickering, that was you, Daddy?
“Mm, I suppose it was, wasn’t it?”
Guru burst out laughing as if he’d just heard the funniest joke.
Joorim fell silent, not wanting to miss a single sound of his child’s laughter.
Almost unbelievably, the agitation that had seized his heart vanished in an instant with a single peal of laughter.
“Daddy will be right there. You go to sleep, Guru.”
- Hmm, but I could wait for Daddy instead of sleeping…
- Guru, let’s sleep. Grandpa will read you a book. Isn’t Daddy really not so good at it?
On Suhyeong gently poked at Guru’s competitive spirit, and Joorim immediately got to his feet.
“I’ll come read you a book right now. Wait for me.”
- No need to rush. I’ll read Guru the story.
- Grandpa says he’ll read it to me.
“Really? Daddy reads even better than Grandpa, you know.”
- Funny. I don’t think so.
- Really?
“Really. I’ll come show you now.”
- Don’t believe a word Daddy says. That’s enough now, Joorim. Take your time coming.
“Father, Father! Don’t hang up!”
Joorim hastily continued speaking.
His steps toward his child quickened.
A warm light spilled from the phone’s screen.
The master of the 99th floor remained seated, gazing silently at Joorim’s departing figure.
The man’s back receded into the city’s nightscape.
Just as he promised, the lights would now flicker no more.
The deep footprints where Joorim had stood would remain in the frozen rooftop for a long time in that space where time seemed to stand still.
What has the power to instantly calm boiling fury?
What turns a weary, despairing step as light as a feather?
Still, the master of the 99th floor does not know.

Doan’s shareholding is at 59% now
Didn’t they only have 10% as of yesterday?
There’s a rumor the founding major shareholder quietly transferred their stake to Doan
No way that was free—how’d they buy it? And all in secret?
