Oops

Oops

The one most excited by the word “fashion show” was Han A-rin.

Judging by her reaction, it seems she had wanted to dress me in various clothes all along but just hadn’t said anything.

As soon as the fashion show was announced, she started making it a big event by calling someone and saying, “Can you bring Ha-eun’s clothes?”

‘… No matter how I think about it, it’s embarrassing.’

The thought of having to twirl around in cute or pretty clothes in front of others fills me with shame.

Of course, in the process, they’ll praise me saying it suits me well or that I did a good job, so it won’t be terribly unpleasant…!

But embarrassing things are still embarrassing.

I was about to say I really couldn’t do it because I couldn’t bear the embarrassment, when

Swish swish

My tail started wagging vigorously side to side, loudly expressing “I’m happy!”

Seeing this, Han A-rin and Seo-rin smiled brightly and added a word to me.

“Ha-eun was looking forward to it too? Okay, unnie will dress you up as best as she can.”

“Kyaa, isn’t Ha-eun just too cute? Okay, I’ll find the clothes that suit Ha-eun best today, so just trust unnie!”

Like when the spirit user uncle broke my lair,

I was stunned with overflowing bewilderment and trembling all over blankly, when

Chae-a, who had gotten up at some point, came down to the floor and said to us with her chest puffed out proudly,

“Chae-a is here too!”

Chae-a’s hair was extremely messy like a lion’s mane from just waking up.

She smiled brightly for some reason, then soon raised both hands and continued speaking.

“Chae-a is amazing!”

What’s so amazing?

Thinking I don’t really understand a baby’s thoughts, I was carefully fixing her floating hair, when

Chae-a seemed to enjoy my touch and clung to me, rubbing her face against me.

“I like contractor…”

I patted Chae-a like that and said one thing.

“Chae-a.”

“Mm?”

“You can call me Ha-eun instead of contractor.”

At those words, Chae-a’s eyes sparkled and she nodded her head vigorously.

It seems she had wanted to call me by name in her heart, so finding Chae-a cute, I patted her head and giggled.

As I patted her head like that, Chae-a raised her hands above her head again and said energetically,

“Ha-eun is amazing!”

I’m not sure what’s so amazing, but thinking it’s good that Chae-a is happy, I raised my hands too, when

I noticed people around us smiling contentedly.

Feeling embarrassed again by those gazes, I was hesitantly lowering my hands when someone knocked on the hospital room door.

“Professor, I brought it.”

“Oh, thank you.”

“No, this much isn’t difficult.”

I blankly opened my mouth seeing a box half the size of an adult man that some student had brought.

Even at a glance, there seemed to be quite a lot of clothes inside the box.

So thinking it would be better to sneak away, I looked for a way to escape, but

‘There’s none…’

No matter how I looked around, there was no place to run away to, so I gave up and stood still, when

Seo-rin took out the shark onesie she had bought before and said to me,

“Then shall we try this on first?”

At those words, realizing this was an already predetermined fate, I nodded.

[NyaNyaNya – It’s really too cute!!!!!!!!]

[Hunter32Years – The animal onesie is so cute ^^. I want to buy it for my children too.]

[ImAHunterForThis – It’s my first time seeing a broadcast that heals just by watching ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Ah so cute.]

Originally it was a fashion show that only the people gathered in the hospital room could see, but

Because Han A-rin made the strange argument that we shouldn’t be the only ones to see this, the broadcast was turned on.

I was looking at the chat window scrolling up while nibbling on the shark onesie tail covering me, when someone sent a donation.

[RecruitingGradStudents has sent 1,000,000 won! – Test]

My mind went blank for a moment at the unrealistic amount.

Wondering what on earth I just saw, I rubbed my eyes, but

No matter how much I rubbed my eyes, the message saying 100 million won was sent didn’t disappear and remained.

As I stood still with a blank expression at that sight,

Han A-rin muttered quietly with a very satisfied expression.

“Now that donations seem to be working well. Then, I guess I should start sending properly now.”

Properly…?

Was 1 million won not proper?

Feeling my sense of money crumbling, I crouched on the floor and bit my tail, then

Soon shook my head quickly and gathered my wits.

‘Let’s pretend I didn’t hear that…!’

Right, it’s dangerous to unnecessarily lower your sense of money compared to your abilities.

Deciding to live according to my abilities, I covered my ears with both hands.

“Thou…”

I heard something like “thou” something, but I must have heard wrong.

Resolving to return that money later no matter how much it was, I was diligently looking down when

Chae-a tilted her head in front of me and looked at me.

“Chae-a wants to play with Ha-eun… yo!”

She seems to like the polite speech she learned at the training ground.

Chae-a put her hands together in a “please” pose and repeated “want to yo?”, and

Seeing Chae-a like that, I gained courage and got up.

“Mm. Shall we?”

At the suggestion to play together, Chae-a was very happy and jumped up and down.

Finding Chae-a in her squirrel onesie cute, I was patting her head when

The spirit user uncle beside us said to us with a very contented expression,

“It seems you’ve built a lot of rapport with Chae-a. You’re doing well.”

“Yes!”

My pronunciation came out properly for the first time in a while.

Feeling somewhat proud, I was giggling when Seo-rin, who was sitting, stared at me blankly, then

As if she could no longer hold back, she hugged me and said,

“Ha-eun, do you like the onesie? Is there anything uncomfortable or that you want added?”

Maybe because she bought a loose size, the clothes were a bit baggy, but

Considering it’s pajamas, this loose fit was rather comfortable, so I nodded, and

Seo-rin smiled with satisfaction and touched my tail.

“Really? Then will you give unnie a kiss to say thank you?”

Startled by those words, I quickly hid behind Chae-a.

Seo-rin pretended to cry and said “Ha-eun-ah” while gesturing to me.

I pretended not to see Seo-rin like that and turned my head away, when a question came up in the chat window.

[RichAndSuspicious – Ha-eun. Do you have any thoughts of building a lair again?]

At the word lair, my tail wagged and I felt happy.

Although it was miserably destroyed last time, I still had the memory of feeling very proud after making it, so

I thought it wouldn’t be bad to try making one again

[RichAndSuspicious – If you want to make one, it might not be bad to try making it more seriously this time.]

What would it feel like to be more serious?

Interested by those words, I stared intently at the chat window, and the suspicious viewer added a few words.

[RichAndSuspicious – Last time you built the lair with easily collapsible materials, but this time it might be good to use sturdy materials that others can’t easily destroy.]

“…Wood?”

[RichAndSuspicious – Yes, wood is good, stones are good, cement is good too. Anything that doesn’t break easily should be fine.]

It was very good advice, but there was a big problem.

Namely, not only would the cost of building a lair with such materials be considerable, but with my arm strength, I could barely lift even a small wooden board, let alone planks.

‘Even blankets were heavy…’

Of course, if I pushed myself, I could probably carry wooden boards around…

But it was obvious I’d soon collapse from exhaustion after moving just a few, so I was troubled.

I pondered while patting Chae-a’s head as she clung to me, but couldn’t come up with an answer at all, so I had no choice but to ask the suspicious viewer a question.

“It’s too heavy to lift.”

At those words, the suspicious viewer sent a long string of laughter initials, finding something very funny.

[RichAndSuspicious – ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ It’s okay. There are plenty of people who can help Ha-eun. For example, the spirit user uncle, or someone like the spirit user uncle.]

At those words, the spirit user uncle watching us from the side laughed heartily.

Perhaps because he had a record of destroying my lair, he seemed to feel guilty in many ways.

“Well, I was going to help anyway. Teacher.”

[RichAndSuspicious – That’s good. Then Ha-eun, it seems you can freely ask the spirit user uncle to carry this and that without worrying.]

Seeing those words, I

Bowed once to the suspicious viewer to express my sincere thanks, then bowed to the spirit user uncle too.

At my maximum expression of gratitude, the spirit user uncle laughed loudly and then took out his wallet and said to me,

“Since I received a bow, I should give you some pocket money.”

At those words, I raised my tail nervously and shook my head quickly.

Wondering why association people keep trying to give me money, I tried to refuse, but

“When an adult gives you something, you say thank you and accept it.”

The spirit user uncle pushed the pocket money into the head part of my shark onesie, so I failed to refuse.

Still, I couldn’t just accept the money like this, so I waved my hand towards the onesie head, but

‘… I can’t reach.’

Because my arms are short, no matter how much I waved my hands, I couldn’t reach.

I was expressing my frustration towards the onesie that was avoiding all my merciless hand movements while swaying back and forth, when

Chae-a found my actions funny and started giggling and waving her hands too.

“……”

Seeing that, I felt dejected for no reason and pouted my lips…

The moment they protruded, I realized my actions were becoming more and more childish, so I quickly pushed my lips back in with my palm.

While my body is a baby, my mind is an adult.

I wanted to keep at least my last bit of dignity.

So I was resolving to pull myself together and act more like an adult from now on, when

“Ta-da, Ha-eun, here’s some jelly. Want to eat?”

Seo-rin tempted me by waving a red bear-shaped jelly back and forth beside me.

I smiled proudly at Seo-rin’s actions, and was about to show an adult reaction by saying something like “It’s okay”, but

When I came to my senses, I was already holding the jelly Seo-rin had in my mouth.

“Oops.”

Feeling the strawberry-flavored jelly filling my mouth, I thought it was delicious but frustrating, so I hugged my tail and lay down on the floor.
