by fnovelpiaJi-hye wandered freely on her own.
Sometimes sitting, sometimes pressing, sometimes lying down.
“Which frame would you like to choose…”
“Oh. I wish there was a catalog to look through.”
She watched Ji-hye, who listened attentively to the explanations, only to let them slip out of one ear as she walked gracefully and cutely examined the bed.
Cute.
Incredibly cute.
Although getting married was undoubtedly a cautious topic, when Ji-hye looked at her, all I could think was that I just wanted to do it.
Seeing her love and happiness gave me strength unknowingly.
Trying not to spend money carelessly, good at cooking too.
Is she being admirable… or is she happy in confidently referring to herself as a future wife?
Unintentionally, a smile escaped me.
“Excuse me….”
“Oh. Yes. What did you say?”
“I brought a catalog. Is there anything you like from it?”
“Oh… Well. I’ll go look for my wife first. Can’t see where she went.”
“Yes, yes.”
Thinking that Ji-hye might seem like she’s about to doze off while lying down, getting up, sitting, and then falling asleep unintentionally, another laugh escaped me.
I followed her to the bed.
Thin legs were visible.
“Cute…! Really…!”
Ji-hye was soundly asleep, hands clasped comfortably with a peaceful expression.
Oh, what should I do? She’s too cute.
“Uh…Customer….”
A staff member who had followed along tried to wake Ji-hye, so I gently stopped them.
“Shh. I’ll buy that. Shall we review the estimate again?”
“Oh… Yes.”
She was sound asleep, unaware of everything.
Breathing lightly, her upper body rose and fell.
“Our wife sleeps so well; we have to buy it.”
Brushing aside her tousled hair, I returned.
“Please use that mattress, and for the frame, something similar but um…please choose this one. It seems convenient with storage underneath. Let’s go for a King size.”
Relieving Ji-hye of any burden.
Making her comfortable.
As Ji-hye entrusts everything to me, I also want to make Ji-hye happy.
I casually engaged in conversation.
Delivery in 2 weeks. The price…was as expected, so I paid immediately.
“Hah… Ji-hye really sleeps like a log.”
Does anyone truly exist who wouldn’t notice if they were carried away? But she’s our wife.
Cute…really adorable.
“Ah-”
“Oh. Quietly…Can you help me open the car door by any chance?”
“Yes, of course. I’ll assist.”
The path to the car wasn’t too far, but with a slight breeze blowing, I huddled against the cold.
Hastening my steps while being careful not to wake Ji-hye, I quickly reached the car.
“I’m really sorry, even for the chair…”
“Oh. Yes, I’ll take care of it.”
I gently laid Ji-hye down and started the engine to warm up the car.
“Thank you.”
“Oh no, it’s nothing. Take care.”
“Yes, yes.”
Closing the door as quietly as possible without any warning lights flashing.
“Phew….”
Ji-hye was still sleeping soundly.
With Ji-hye around, it feels like anything is possible.
Her efforts to support me properly look so beautiful.
Her willingness to do anything makes her seem kinder than anyone else in the world.
“Well…shall we go now.”
Driving slowly, more cautiously than ever, avoiding speed bumps that Ji-hye dislikes.

“Umm….”
My body trembled.
It felt like a sensation rather than someone waking me up. Familiar yet strange.
*Ding dong.*
I gently opened my eyes at the sound of the door lock.
“What…?”
“Oh. Are you awake?”
“Huh…!?”
[Where am I?]
…
…Home.
…
Sitting down, my brother takes off my worn-out shoes and then his own, entering the bedroom.
“The bed has been bought. It will arrive in two weeks.”
“No… Did I sleep here?”
“Yeah. You looked so cute.”
I didn’t mean to hear those words.
“No… No, why am I here?”
“I didn’t want to wake you up, so I just carried you in. You slept so well even in the car. You seemed really tired.”
“Uh… Thank you.”
“Yeah, no problem.”
Sitting on the edge of the bed, I took off my clothes.
“So, what kind of bed did you buy?”
You ask casually.
I don’t think he would have bought something strange, but I’m curious anyway.
Upon hearing that, my brother smiles and says,
“I bought a bed that matches your size and made of solid wood for durability.”
Oh. He bought it perfectly to fit.
“Wow. I love it. How did you know exactly what I wanted? I didn’t say anything.”
“Well, I know what you like because I care about you.”
I feel his love.
That’s why I like him.
“Come here. Let me praise you.”
He opens his arms wide.
My brother embraces me as I move closer.
“…Thank you so much.”
He strokes my head and hugs me tighter.
We share warmth and exchange the love we’ve gathered.
My brother’s face is filled with my lips.
“Kiss me…”
“Do you want to kiss me?”
“Yeah… Give me more compliments.”
My brother is affectionate.
He desires me.
*Kiss*
A brief kiss.
Our lips meet again.
“Ah… Brother…”
I focus on the sensations.
I listen more intently to the sounds, trying to feel my brother’s warmth more, holding him closer.
I tease my brother more, exciting him and myself further.
“Mm… Ha… Chu…♡”
Is saliva always this sweet when swallowed?
I didn’t even realize my body was trembling with the melting sensation.
I continue kissing, relying on my brother.
…
“Sigh… Huh…”
Though it felt long, the kiss that ended felt short.
I lay on the bed, breathing heavily.
It feels like lying on clouds in the high sky rather than a bed.
In this atmosphere, we should probably undress each other, but…
“Pfft…”
My brother has already fallen asleep, lost in dreamland.
He must be tired too.
Both our clothes are soaked with sweat.
There seems to be a lot of laundry to do today.
I resolve to lay a large towel next time we do this, as I try to hug my brother but then pull away.
“Brother… Let’s take a bath and sleep.”
My brother is sweaty.
How can he sleep so peacefully?
“Mm…”
“Brother…”
The bed is damp.
Was there another blanket left?
No, there isn’t. Only one spare.
“Should I eat you up, brother?”
“…Huh? What…?”
Tonight, I’ll sleep in my bed.
“Let’s bathe. The bed is damp again.”
“Oh… I see.”
He goes back to take a shower.
“This time… let’s wash quickly and sleep. No playing around.”
“Mm…”
Still drowsy, he starts showering, almost nodding off while taking off his clothes.
“Should I help you this time?”
“Oh… No, I might fall asleep for real.”
“If I touch here, can you still fall asleep…?”
When I point to his armpit, his half-closed eyes flicker open.
“This time, I might really fall asleep… truly.”
“Just from getting wiped down?”
“…That’s the issue. I can’t control it either. This guy gets mad on its own.”
Who knows what might happen.
We help each other wash off the sticky sweat, heads bowed.
[Towel soaked in body wash, I push my brother’s back and he pushes mine.]
“Huam… It’s small, so it ends quickly.”
“I don’t mind if it’s spacious. I like it.”
“I feel like I’m becoming a bad guy.”
Feeling apologetic, my brother rubs down to my arms.
“You don’t like my back?”
“No, I like it. It’s pretty.”
“Okay then. It’s done. Now it’s my turn.”
I used to have it, but it was taken away.
Taken away… Is that the right term?
Carefully grasping it.
“What were you thinking, getting bigger like this while pretending to be sleepy?”
“Um… I told you I can’t control myself either.”
Like handling a large, elongated object as if caring for a baby, I clean it thoroughly with foam.
Is this what’s entering me?
While my body feels strange, I also find my brother’s body quite fascinating.
Fascinating yet… grotesque… and lovely.
“Alright~ We’re done!”
As I sprinkle water, he shivers as if feeling good.
“I don’t know…”
Though my brother tries to hide it, it seems like he can’t control himself, just standing there like a pillar.
Quite… impressive.
“If I spray cold water, you’ll freeze instantly.”
“Oh… considering the weather now…”
“So how should I help you deal with it?”
“…Huh!!”
Glancing at me slightly, he turns the faucet in the opposite direction and sprays it as it is.
“Ugh…”
The splashing droplets are quite cold.
Yet he continues without stopping, regardless.
“Brr… it’s cold.”
“Shall I turn on warm water again?”
“Mm-hmm…”
He froze.
Not me, but that… pillar did.
It shrunk by half compared to before.
“Let’s finish now. I’m really sleepy.”
“Yes, yes.”
After finishing the shower, I dry off with a towel.
Another towel appears.
Especially since I use two towels.
Using just one towel would result in it becoming more of a wet rag than a towel after drying off the hair.
“Phew…”
*Splash*
I leap onto the bed.
The springs compress and expand, transitioning into softness.
“When do you think you’ll wake up?”
“Um… well… probably before dinner, right?”
“Yes. Goodnight then.”
“Yeah. Goodnight.”
Wrapping my still damp hair in a towel, I lay my head on the pillow.
Perhaps I’m being a bit stubborn again this time.
Since my brother accepts everything, I’m not sure how far I should go.
Whether this is the right path or not.
“I’m sorry. It happened like this again.”
“……”
My brother must have already fallen asleep, only quiet breathing can be heard.
“Sleep well. I’m sorry. And I love you.”
Gently stroking the slightly damp hair with my hand, I fall asleep as well, naturally closing my eyes in my brother’s embrace where a place for me has naturally formed.
