The noisy mansion suddenly becomes quiet at Jin-ha’s sudden question.

A question posed by a child who is only five years old and full of innocence.

At this, everyone in the mansion except my husband and I looked shocked and horrified, and then they started muttering and spewing out words of concern at a rapid pace.

[What should I do? Most lies won’t work on the young lady.]

[They’ll just laugh at things like the stork asked. Hmm… I wonder how the master and mistress will respond?]

[To tell the truth, that is difficult in its own right. Wouldn’t it be right to stop it now?]

Did you think that no one would hear what you were saying?

Every time the maids got excited, Jin-ha’s smile grew wider, and her husband’s face hardened with each passing moment.

…that idiot.

We finished talking before Jin-ha arrived. Let’s just give a vague explanation.

Why are you struggling between telling the truth and giving a vague explanation?

Three hours before Jin-ha came home, I received a call from the teacher in charge of my lovely daughter’s class.

‘Are you Jin-ha’s mother? I’m calling because I feel I have to tell you this.’

‘I… I don’t know if I can say this, but Jin-ha seems to know the good times you two have so well.’

‘Today, they asked me about the night you two went to, but honestly, I didn’t know what to say, so I held off on answering. I guess I’ll ask my mother when I get back.’

‘There’s nothing else. Jin-ha is a very mature child for his age. I hope things work out smoothly. That’s all for now.’

To summarize, it’s not my place to get involved, so please handle it well on your own.

As soon as those words were out of my mouth, my wife and I were put on emergency alert, and we stopped trying to have a second child and immediately started talking about sex education.

‘Why can’t you just say the truth, ‘It’s made through sex?’ I think you already know the gist of it.

‘That’s true, but I still have to explain it properly. Not in a vulgar way, but while highlighting the sublime meaning of creating life.’

‘Well, isn’t what we’re doing too vulgar to be considered sublime? Look at us now, wearing dog leashes and barking.’

‘…Be quiet. Anyway, it is a noble and sublime work of creating life.’

We really discussed it for a long time.

He’s a smart kid anyway, so he’ll do well on his own.

No matter how smart the child is, I can’t trust her. She was our daughter from the beginning.

There was so much talk, and in the end, the decision was made.

[Provide proper sex education, but never in a vulgar way.]

That was the best compromise, so if Jin-ha really asked, I decided to answer with that.

“…”

Why is my husband worried? What on earth is he trying to say?

I felt uneasy for no reason and wrapped my thick, voluptuous tail around my husband’s body, and then he finally opened his mouth and started answering my daughter’s questions.

“Hoo, my lovely daughter.”

“Yes! Dad!”

“Are you so curious about how babies are made?”

“Yes!!!”

Jin-ha, with her fluffy tail wagging and her eyes sparkling with anticipation.

My husband, who was delighted by his daughter’s reaction, looked at me with a sinister look.

“Why, what.”

“…”

“Honey, no, Yoon Hyuk Jin. You’re not… are you?”

When I asked with an awkward smile, my husband smiled brightly and grabbed the tail that was wrapped around his body.

“Daughter.”

“Yes!”

“I’ll show you how babies are made… Geheok!”

Bang!!!!!!!

He was trying to unzip his pants when he got hit by a frying pan and passed out.

“Dad – !”

My daughter runs to her father, who is lying on the ground, struggling, and pokes him in the ribs.

My daughter looked sullen at not hearing an answer, then looked up at me with her eyes bright and expectant again.

‘Mom, you know? I know everything!’

…you can read it just by looking at the eyes.

Forget about lying, it was all over the moment you hit your dad with the frying pan.

What should I say?

When the time came to speak, I was in a very difficult situation because I couldn’t think of anything to say.

If a man and a woman make love, do they have a child? Then you might ask what it means to make love.

But you can’t say that if X goes inside X and knocks on the uterus and spits out white milk inside, implantation will occur and a baby will be born. How do you say that to a 5-year-old?

“Sigh…”

As I sighed, placing my hand on my heated forehead, Jin-ha made a sullen expression and showed a look of disappointment.

“Ma, you don’t have to tell me. I’m sorry for making things difficult for you, Mom.”

“It’s not that difficult. But… I don’t know how to explain it.”

When I see that disappointed face, I feel a surge of guilt.

Look at that damn thing, he does it knowing it’s going to make him feel guilty.

But even if you know it, you have to suffer. I decided to give her proper sex education this time.

“Are you serious?”

“Yes.”

I look at my daughter, who is showing off her soft and cute side with a very serious face.

Tsk tsk.

My daughter purrs like a cat when I touch her soft hair and perked ears.

Deciding that I was sufficiently prepared, I slowly began to explain to Jin-ha about ‘sex’.

“So, babies are born when a man and a woman do something and so on, and what do they mean by that? ”

“That’s it. Why are you talking about copulation when you’re asking about having a baby?”

“Well, of course you have to do ‘that’ to have a child, right? If you’re going to explain it as a parent, then explain it in detail…”

“So I’ll explain in detail about the night… How far did you plan on explaining?”

I tilted my head at the sudden appearance of the fox god and whispered what I was going to say, but the fox god hit my forehead and shut my mouth.

“Do you really think that’s something you should say to a five-year-old? Seriously?”

“Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!!!”

“That’s it, I guess I can’t leave the sex education of the child to you two. I’ll make Jin-ha’s sex education my own, do you understand?”

“Oh my!!!!!!”

No, what’s wrong with my sex education? What the hell did I do wrong?

What’s wrong with saying, ‘If you get raped a lot by the man you love, it happens’!

So I could only watch as Jin-ha was dragged away by the fox god, even his movements sealed, and soon, when the temporary seal was completely released.

“Mom… You were truly an amazing person.”

For some reason, Jin-ha was looking at me with admiration.

—–

The evening after the commotion had ended.

Thanks to the fox god, we were able to overcome the big trouble and enjoy a peaceful meal, and dinner began in a friendly atmosphere.

A meal prepared with care by the mansion’s maids.

I couldn’t help but smile as I watched Jin-ha moving his soft cheeks around and enjoying his food, but soon my face hardened as I saw the beans slowly piling up next to his rice bowl.

…Did Jin-ha eat picky food? No, but I don’t think he was particularly picky.

I stopped chewing the meat and spoke to Jin-ha.

“Daughter, you don’t eat beans?”

“Huh?”

“There was a pile of beans next to the rice bowl. I asked because I thought you might not like it.”

“Ah.”

Only then did Jin-ha look at the pile of beans in front of him and become startled.

My lovely daughter rolled her eyes for a moment, but then confidently began to tell me about the foods she disliked.

“The beans… are kind of dry and tasteless. It feels like chewing on something foreign while eating rice, so it’s not that great. As for the eggplants, well, the texture and taste are weird…”

To put it simply, this is a problem that arose because foxes are omnivorous but are closer to carnivorous.

Since my daughter’s picky eating habits are an inevitable result of her animal instincts, I decided to accept my daughter’s picky eating.

“Still, you have to eat a variety of things to grow up healthy, so eat one at a time, okay?”

“Yes, Mom!”

Jin-ha gave a short answer and continued eating. When I turned my gaze toward my husband, I could see that he was frowning deeply.

What the hell is going on? Surely it’s not because he got hit hard by a frying pan?

When I looked at my husband with eyes filled with anxiety and doubt, my husband felt my gaze and straightened his expression, smiled broadly, and faced me.

“What’s wrong? You don’t look so good?”

“How can my bad impression only last for a day or two?”

“Don’t joke around. What’s going on? If it’s something that’s going to annoy you, then it’s not normal.”

“Whew, I retired, but you keep calling me back. This time, you really need my strength.”

The husband emptied the rice bowl cleanly and continued speaking while pouring cold water into a cup.

“There’s a serial kidnapper in the underworld? But he seems to be quite elusive. He hasn’t been caught for 5 months, and the damage keeps happening, so I think he’s calling me.”

“Hmm, honestly, I want to tell you to help me… but if I help you once, you’ll keep calling me back.”

“That’s what I’m saying. Haa, I’ve already received three calls today. How incompetent must someone be to not be able to catch a single kidnapper…”

“Are there any dead people? Anybody else?”

“Yeah, it seems like the kidnapper is keeping the kids alive. I don’t know why. Why is he keeping them alive, and why is he only kidnapping them? ”

The husband sighed and gulped down the cold water, then his expression hardened when he saw Jin-ha leisurely enjoying her meal.

“Honey.”

“Why?”

“Our Jin-ha, you won’t be kidnapped by that guy, right?”

“Hey, no way. How is that possible when the maids are guarding with their eyes wide open?”

“You never know. Maybe that guy is strong enough to break through the maid escort. They say there are a lot of weirdos among the strong, right?”

My husband’s words made me feel uneasy, so after a short discussion, we decided to hire another escort maid.

And for a moment we felt at ease.

Until that happens.
