Chapter Index

    Drowsiness surrounds my body. I still don’t feel like I’m awake.

    Lee Ho-yeon’s nightmare left an unpleasant feeling even after she woke up. But today, unlike usual, I didn’t break out in a cold sweat.

    Is it because he is held in Baek A-young’s arms?

    My body temperature was high, but I felt refreshed.

    “Ahm. Mmm.”

    “Ugh… honey, don’t worry.”

    For no reason, I was squeezing Baek A-young’s chest with my mouth, but I was slapped on the back by Baek A-young’s hand.

    … I don’t know why I feel so good.

    The guilt that had filled my heart mysteriously disappeared.

    ‘I guess it’s because I heard good things from Sol. Or maybe it’s because I’m being held by Ayoung.’

    Even more than Lee Ho-yeon thought… The reactions from the heroines were positive.

    Maybe that’s why I feel a little relieved.

    ‘What is our Ayoung thinking?’

    Baek Ah-young’s obsession with Lee Ho-yeon.

    I was afraid of how it would turn out.

    ‘Heroine status window.’

    Ho-yeon Lee checked Baek A-young’s status window for the first time in a long time.

    This also became difficult to use after suppressing my clear mental power.

    For some reason, my conscience pricked me because I felt like I was viewing the heroines as settings in a game.

    ★ Heroine status window

    [Baek Ah-young]

    – [Likeability: 100] (+ 3.6)

    – [Liberty: 70]

    – [Appetite: 30]

    – [Fatigue: 50]

    Current status: How many children should we have? .

    [When you reach 100 likeability, you will seek Lee Ho-yeon’s affection.]

    “…I just saw it for no reason.”

    “huh?”

    “it’s nothing.”

    “Ah, ah….”

    Hoyeon Lee didn’t think too much and buried her face in his chest again.

    In fact, there is no such thing as breasts or other flesh in essence.

    When I hold you in my chest, I feel so at ease.

    Maybe this is the power of maternal love.

    I thought I couldn’t feel that way because I don’t have any memories of my parents, but maybe I instinctively crave maternal love?

    As I am held in Baek Ah-young’s chest, I feel like I will realize the truth of the world.

    Tiririri- Tiririri-

    That time when I was embraced by the truth.

    Baek A-young’s smart watch began to ring.

    “ah….”

    As soon as she heard the notification, Baek Ah-young sighed in disappointment.

    Maybe it’s time to go to the emergency room again.

    “I’m sorry, honey. I should have come sooner. Ugh.”

    “Is it time for your shift already?”

    “It’s not like I’m leaving work, I’m just given a short break… Just a little more and I’ll be home from work.”

    No one would say anything if Baek Ayoung left work, but Baek Ayoung was definitely on time for leaving work.

    I can do a little more work with a smile.

    “You must have had a lot of work to do. It was well past lunch time.”

    “The number of emergency patients has increased due to Lucifer’s attack… But there are no deaths, and everyone is working hard.”

    “Um… I understand. Mr. Ayoung.”

    I expected it, but it’s not easy to hear it in person.

    Ho-yeon Lee swallowed her regret after turning off honey mode.

    ‘Should I come back later?’

    Now was the right time… I missed the timing while holding it in my chest.

    This is why I couldn’t fall asleep. I barely got my mind together, so I should have said it today.

    shit. My mood, which had been improving at first, became bitter again.

    If we part ways on such a good note, what should I say next?

    Hoyeon Lee frowned and sighed quietly.

    “….”

    Baek Ah-young turned off the notifications on her smartwatch and looked at Lee Ho-yeon’s face.

    The expression on his face filled with various emotions was similar to when he was wandering in a nightmare.

    I could still vividly see him sobbing with tears in his eyes.

    “Hoyeon, can we stay together a little longer?”

    “yes?”

    “The emergency room is busy, but all emergency patients are gone. No one will say anything no matter how much you wait. I also have a lot of authority.”

    Lee Ho-yeon’s eyes twitched as she saw Baek A-young looking at her with an adult face.

    She tapped her smartwatch without waiting for a response.

    Hoyeon Lee asked Baek Ayoung with a puzzled look.

    “I appreciate it, but why are you doing this all of a sudden?”

    “It’s just that my wife seems to want to be together. Is there anything you want to do?”

    After seeing each other for so long, I wonder if he can read my mind.

    Lee Ho-yeon, who was a little surprised, slightly pushed Baek A-young away and sat upright.

    “Actually, I have something to tell you, Mr. Ayoung.”

    “It’s okay to take it easy.”

    Even though the same story was told several times, the tension still remained.

    Lee Ho-yeon slowly expressed the words in her heart.

    *

    “Mmm.”

    After Lee Ho-yeon finished speaking.

    Baek Ah-young checked Lee Ho-yeon’s condition.

    Tension, fear, and anxiety spread throughout my body.

    Seeing the emotions that did not go away throughout the conversation, I felt like I knew the cause of the trauma.

    “…Are you disappointed?”

    Meanwhile, Lee Ho-yeon carefully checked Baek A-young’s face.

    As soon as the story ended, I started thinking alone, so I couldn’t help but feel anxious.

    However, Baek Ah-young, who soon made eye contact with Ho-yeon Lee, smiled and spread her arms.

    “Come here, honey.”

    “town.”

    Soft skin returned.

    Being held in this chest makes me excited again.

    “That was a concern. It would have been better if you had told me sooner.”

    “Aren’t you disappointed?”

    The patients that Baek A-young examined in the emergency room were created because of Lee Ho-yeon.

    Even if there were no deaths, you may feel resentful of yourself.

    “That can’t be true. It’s even sadder that our honey is having a hard time.”

    Baek Ah-young whimpered and hugged Lee Ho-yeon’s head even more tightly.

    When it came out like that, I was rather shocked.

    “I should have taken more care. If I had, this wouldn’t have happened.”

    ‘… Actually, it’s not that big of a deal?’

    That can’t be possible.

    I don’t know if anyone else knows, but why is Baek Ayoung reacting like this?

    ★ Heroine status window

    [Baek Ah-young]

    – [Likeability: 100] (+ 3.6)

    – [Liberty: 70]

    – [Appetite: 30]

    – [Fatigue: 50]

    Current status: My honey needs more care from me. It’s sad… I can’t see it collapsing.

    [When you reach 100 likeability, you will seek Lee Ho-yeon’s affection.]

    ‘He’s clearly sad.’

    He does not show his feelings of sadness outwardly.

    Baek A-young may have a high likeability rating, but her likeability is not invincible.

    I’m sure it’s not just that… I don’t know the cause.

    “…Thank you, Mr. Ayoung.”

    In the end, there was nothing left to say other than this.

    It seemed like there were circumstances, but I was just thankful that there was less backlash than Lee Ho-yeon expected.

    “No. Holding her like this makes me feel like my honey has really become younger.”

    Baek Ah-young patted Lee Ho-yeon’s head and laughed.

    He was younger than me when we met. What does this mean?

    ‘If you think about it, have you ever been like that except when you first met?’

    After a few meetings, the relationship was completely turned upside down, so it was natural for Baek A-young to feel that way.

    It wasn’t long before I thought of Baek Ayoung as older than me.

    “Hmm… Then should I call you Ayoung-noona. Ayoung-noona.”

    Baek A-young is the same age as Im Sol.

    Although she is older than Moon Su-rin, she is at an age where it is not a problem to call her sister.

    “Huh, heh….”

    The reaction was dramatic.

    Baek Ah-young clutched her chest as if she had been shot and began to tremble.

    … I think Moon Su-rin also really liked it.

    Everyone likes it.

    “Ayoung sister? What’s wrong?”

    “S-Stop it….”

    Baek Ah-young, whose body turned red and trembled, shook Lee Ho-yeon’s shoulder and looked embarrassed.

    Then he pulled his face back to his chest.

    “Ho, ho, ho… Hoyeon.”

    “Yes. Sister Ayoung.”

    Pat pat pat. Pat pat pat.

    Baek Ah-young stroked Lee Ho-yeon’s head and trembled.

    Her hand, which had been moving slowly, gradually became faster.

    “Sister, sister….”

    “Yes. Sister Ayoung.”

    I laughed to myself because it was cute to see her shiver just by saying she was my sister.

    I should have done this a long time ago.

    “Just trust my sister. From now on, she will solve everything. Anything that gets in the way, whether it’s love or anything else….”

    “…?”

    uh? What happened just now?

    It passed so quickly that I couldn’t hear it properly.

    “Honey. Our honey.”

    “yes yes.”

    Baek Ah-young looked at Lee Ho-yeon with passionate gaze.

    what. It probably wasn’t particularly important.

    Until Baek A-young’s smartwatch rang again, Baek A-young was lying on the bed petting Lee Ho-yeon.

    *

    Rattling.

    Ho-yeon Lee, who left the medical team, had a paper pack in her hand that was not there when she entered.

    Lee Ho-yeon, who had a tearful farewell to Baek A-young, narrowed his eyes as he looked at the bag of medicine she had hurriedly brought him.

    “I don’t know what kind of drug this is. Dopamine, anti-static… What is this?”

    The back part is scratched, so… It was only visible until the end.

    what? It wouldn’t be an anti-government killing.

    Lee Ho-yeon, who was looking around at the medicine bag, stopped thinking and crumpled the medicine bag into his pocket.

    “Is it okay to selectively give medicine to a patient like this? I would be subject to some kind of law.”

    Since Baek A-young gave it to me, it must not be bad for my health.

    Perhaps there was a mistake during management. Because she has a clumsy side.

    Tiriring-

    When she returned home, Hoyeon Lee was greeted by a quiet living room.

    Since there was no welcoming voice, it seemed like no one was home.

    Tap-tap-tap-

    But as I went a little further, I saw a red-haired beauty sitting at the kitchen table.

    Rebecca was tapping on the keyboard while looking at the screen floating in the air.

    Looks like I’m working from home or something.

    “Baby dad. You’re here? You worked hard.”

    “Yes. Rebecca, are you alone at home?”

    “Miss Scarlett went to work, and Miss Da-eun went for a walk with Da-hee. I don’t know where Liliana went.”

    “Hmm… well, Liliana won’t be in trouble anymore.”

    “I guess so.”

    I was planning to take a look at Liliana’s enhanced magical powers when I had time, but it’s a shame that I didn’t have any.

    Hoyeon Lee sat across from Rebecca and sipped the tea she was drinking.

    “This is delicious. Is it citron tea?”

    “No. It’s quince tea. It’s rich in vitamin C.”

    It seems like it would be a good tea for pregnancy.

    Now you can know without asking.

    Rebecca stopped what she was doing for a moment and continued her conversation with Hoyeon Lee.

    “Shall we go for a walk like Da-eun? They say a moderate walk is good for pregnant women’s body care.”

    “Rebecca is not pregnant.”

    “It’ll be soon so it’s okay.”

    Even this shameless conversation is now expected.

    But it’s a little strange.

    Same thing with Baek A-young, we had a lot of plans to get her pregnant, but there is no news yet.

    Lee Ho-yeon, who was seriously considering going to the hospital, quickly shook her head.

    In fact, pregnancy is not an easy task.

    Anyway, it’s a walk. It’s not bad.

    Should I spend some time with Rebecca after a long time?

    “A walk… isn’t that bad. Let’s go out together.”

    “Huh? Really?”

    Rebecca opened her eyes wide and looked at Hoyeon Lee.

    It was as if something that should never have happened had happened.

    “…Why did Rebecca say it first?”

    “I thought the baby’s father would naturally reject it, so I just threw it away. I’m sorry. I have work to do, too.”

    “….”

    What is this person? What are you saying after what you said?

    Hoyeon Lee blinked as he looked at Rebecca, who was smiling shyly and scratching the back of her head, and then nodded.

    ‘okay. ‘This is all my fault too.’

    Since we don’t usually go out together, Rebecca doesn’t have any expectations.

    It’s all a seed I planted and it’s all my fault.

    Ho-yeon Lee, who had composed herself, smiled deeply and placed her hand on the back of Rebecca’s hand.

    “Then, instead of going for a walk, shall we rest in the room together? I want to spend time with Rebecca after a long time.”

    “Are you making babies? If that’s the case, you’re welcome!”

    As soon as we touch each other, Rebecca’s eyes come to life.

    Lee Ho-yeon, who smiled as she saw her eyes sparkling, soon stood up.

    “I was just throwing this out there. Actually, I have work to do.”

    “Baby dad. How can you do that? It’s not trampling on a woman’s innocence.”

    Rebecca crossed her arms and glared at herself.

    I was scared, as if the smile I had just smiled at was a lie.

    “I’ll do it next time. I really have work to do.”

    “Baby daddy!”

    pure… .

    Is it okay to use that word here?

    Hoyeon Lee went into the room, leaving Rebecca looking at him with a straight face.
