“Ahh… It stings.”
I lift the collar of my shirt and inner shirt at the same time to look inside.
There’s a red tooth mark between my chest and collarbone.
It’s so red that I think I might have bruised it if I had bitten a little harder.
I mutter while glaring at the perpetrator of this incident walking beside me.
“Not only dogs, but people should wear muzzles. Look at this.”
“Don’t whine. You reap what you sow.”
“Are you really a puppy who hasn’t finished biting?”
“I thought about ripping off my chest meat but held back. Don’t joke around, okay?”
‘… You vicious b*tch.’
I lower my tail first while looking at Yu-ah’s venomous eyes.
If I had fought back any more, I might have been in trouble with her all day.
Every time I feel pain, I start rationalizing in my head.
If you think about it, isn’t this a bite from Rikyuel?
Then it’s a reward since it’s Rikyuel’s tooth mark.
Yeah.
The thing on the clothes is Rikyuel’s saliva, so it’s holy water, and the scar Rikyuel left behind is stigmata.
So this is holy water and a trace of stigmata.
Thinking about it like that, the pain seemed to subside a little.
After getting off at the station, I took a bus for 5 minutes.
An apartment with a nice design came into view.
That was right there, Yu-ah’s parents’ house.
In other words, it was where Yu-ah’s mother lived.
I followed her into the apartment and took the elevator up.
Soon, I arrived at the door of Yu-ah’s parents’ house.
Yu-ah, who knew both the common entrance and the house password, pressed the number, and the entrance opened.
“Wolwol!”
Then, a dog barked and ran out from afar.
Yu-ah’s expression, which had been venomous until just now, disappeared, and a refreshing and cute smile appeared.
She lowered her body from the shoe cabinet and greeted the dog running toward her.
“Damn~! Wow. You’re cute. Yes, yes, yes. How have you been? It’s been a while~!”
The dog pant and rubs against Yu-ah.
It falls over and rolls around on the floor, begging to be loved.
A puppy with light brown hair mixed here and there, but with the appearance of a Pomeranian.
The puppy’s name was Dam.
The breed was Sigorjab.
Whether or not one of the parents was a Pomeranian, it looked exactly like a Pomeranian.
I leave the two who are enjoying their emotional reunion and sneak inside.
And Yu-ah’s mother is walking slowly from afar.
Her name is Cha Eun-ju.
She is now in her mid-to-late 40s, but she doesn’t look like it at all.
She gives off the feeling of a mature office lady.
If I exaggerate a little, she gives off the feeling of Yu-ah’s older sister.
Of course, Yu-ah is an only child, so she doesn’t have an older sister.
And her breasts.
Her breasts are so elastic and voluminous that I wonder how Yu-ah was born to those parents.
She still has a feminine charm.
… But why Yu-ah?
Mother.
Didn’t he pass on that rich DNA to Yu-ah?
I just felt sorry.
“Oh my. I was wondering why Dam-i ran away. Yu-ah and Ji-bin are here?”
His unique low, deep voice.
The voice that Yu-ah always imitates, like Nuna’s, sounds comfortable.
But his mother wasn’t forcing it.
She had such a nice voice to begin with.
Maybe Yu-ah’s voice is a little childish, but the reason it’s nice to hear is because of the good vocal cords that his mother passed down to him.
“Hello. Mother.”
When I greeted her, Yu-ah’s mother smiled and nodded.
In fact, this title is now familiar, but it used to be a little awkward.
It would have been normal to call me aunt, but Yu-ah’s mother really thought of me as her son.
She asked me to call her mother instead of aunt, and I did.
So I called my mother “Mom” and my aunt “Mom.”
“Dam-ah. Where are you going? Leave your sister behind!”
Then Yu-ah finally crawled out of the shoe cabinet.
Dam-i thought that she had received all the love from Yu-ah.
She came to my feet, rubbed her head, rolled around, and made a fuss.
“…She was stolen. By that anchovy-like bastard. Dam-i was mine…ugh.”
“Ugh. That’s right. You should have taken better care of your lover, right?”
“What the heck. That tone of voice is so annoying.”
Yu-ah’s genuinely contemptuous tone hurts me a little.
I soothe my hurt by looking at the cotton ball crawling on the floor.
Yu-ah gave her the name Dam-i.
When she was very young, she was found abandoned under a wall near the school.
Yu-ah and I raised her after finding her on the way home from school.
Because her parents were allergic to dog hair, she couldn’t take her home, so she raised her at Yua’s house.
That’s how she grew up.
Yu-ah’s mother, who was watching from the side, said with a smile, “Our Dam-i is full of energy. Is it because she’s seeing her young mom and dad after a long time with her grandma?”
Yu-ah quickly and sharply retorted.
“Me with him? Mom, Dad? Mom, there’s a limit to jokes. This is a bit much.”
Yu-ah squints her eyes and protests to her mother’s words.
Well, if she insists on denying it like that, I can’t just sit still.
“I’m sorry. Are you the only one who doesn’t like it? I’m also rejecting it.”
“Huh? No matter how I look at it, it seems like I’m at a loss.”
“You have too high an opinion of yourself, Yu-ah. Objectively speaking, it’s my loss.”
She starts her crazy party again.
And her mother, who is right next to her, puts her to sleep with a single word.
“The two of you are getting along better. That’s good.”
Yu-ah sighs in disbelief.
“Mom. If this looks like we’re getting along well, it’s a bit dangerous. We should go to the hospital.”
“She doesn’t know anything. Fights have to be good, Yu-ah. You have to clap your hands to make a sound.”
As I listened to the fiery filial daughter’s words, Yu-ah’s mother approached me before Yu-ah and brought her face close to mine.
Then, as if to see where she was, she stroked my cheek in detail.
“Is my son more handsome? He seems to have grown taller since I saw him last time?”
“Yes. It’s true that you grow taller even in the military.”
He did grow a little taller in the military.
Not by much, though.
Then, Yu-ah mutters next to me as if complaining.
“…..God is unfair. Why only him? I’m not tall. He’s already tall.”
I ignore Yu-ah, who is grumbling while looking down at his feet.
I turn my head again and look at my mother.
“I’m sorry I haven’t been here for a while since I was discharged. It’s been a long time since you came, hasn’t it?”
“No. You must have been busy too. You can come whenever you want. Whenever you want.”
“Yes.”
“And you don’t have to come with Yu-ah? I want to see my son’s face separately.”
“I will. Yes.”
As I answer as if I’m possessed by my mother’s words, I hear a jealous voice behind me.
“Mom…my daughter came too…there’s a pretty daughter here….why is that bastard Yoon Ji-bin…”
Hey.
Don’t be so dark.
I can’t help but feel goosebumps running down my spine at the gaze I feel from behind.
As expected, jealousy is bb.
Jealousy was Retube.
Only then does my mother take her hand off my face and leave.
But the voice from behind is still grumbling.
“I don’t know whose child it is…my daughter who lives alone came home after a long time…and she’s caressing someone else’s child’s face…”
Her tone of speech gradually turns pitch black.
My mother smiles cutely at her daughter who is turning dark.
Soon, she speaks to Yu-ah as if she’s training her.
“So Yu-ah. Have you eaten?”
Yu-ah’s eyes, which had been emitting a dark aura to herself, return to their original state.
She answers her mother with a faint smile on her lips.
“You’re finally looking this way! Mom! Then I ate.”
My mother smiles and says, “Really? Then, since I have to make kimchi, would you go and buy some groceries with Ji-bin? Mom has to go for a walk with Dam.”
“……Mom, you’re really too much. Ugh. Not my mom…”
The mother who only tells her daughter the important things like that.
She laughs out loud while watching Yu-ah who is upset.
I noticed the wrist guard on her mother’s wrist.
Yu-ah’s mother majored in art and worked as a children’s book author.
It was also thanks to her mother that Yu-ah came to like drawing.
However, her arms and wrists were bad due to her long career, so she couldn’t lift heavy things well.
That’s why I was the one who helped her whenever something big happened.
It would have been Yu-ah’s father who should have done it originally, but…
Whenever I see her like that, I get a strange feeling.
Even though it was already a long time ago.
I shook my head from side to side, trying to clear my mind of useless thoughts.
Before I knew it, Yu-ah, who had been complaining to her mother from afar, was next to me.
“Why are you staring blankly? Are you sleepy?”
“Huh? Just. It’s nothing.”
Yu-ah, who had been looking at me as if I was indifferent, said to me as if giving me orders.
“Then let’s go. You’re a porter.”
“…What kind of porter am I?”
“You’re perfect for being a porter.”
“Then what are you?”
Yu-ah, who had been thinking for a moment, let out a word that sounded like a nerd.
“Hmm…I’m a beautiful elf who assists the hero in a party?”
After saying that, she chuckled as if she found it ridiculous even to herself.
“The chicken coop is similar to the metaphor. Yeah.”
“Hey!”
No.
That’s right.
You’re 1600 years old and a metaphor.
You.
