Yujin and Lime walked side by side, wandering around the department store.

The first place they visited was the section selling women’s clothing.

Despite this and that, Lime needed to buy clothes.

“Hmm~ I don’t understand why humans produce so many unnecessary things. Isn’t clothing just supposed to cover the body enough?”

Contrary to her words, there was a hint of joy in Lime’s gaze as she looked at the clothes.

She sent curious glances here and there.

Her appearance felt cute like that of a girl her age.

“With so many options, you can try on various clothes. It must be enjoyable for someone.”

“But you don’t need that many clothes. Besides, you don’t even know what suits you.”

“Lime, you’re pretty, so anything you wear will look good on you,” Yujin said confidently.

As if swayed by those words, Lime’s head abruptly stopped.

She stood frozen in place, not moving at all.

“Lime?”

No answer came when asked.

Yujin approached her with a puzzled expression.

“What’s wrong? Is something bothering you?”

If that’s the case, it’s a big problem.

It was Lime’s first time being out for so long.

Yujin asked with a concerned tone.

Lime made a hesitant sound, trembling slightly.

She didn’t lift her bowed head.

“If you’re feeling unwell, we can go back now…”

“N-no, it’s not that.”

Lime quickly replied, turning her head.

Her cheeks were tinged with a faint pink hue.

Not only her cheeks but her ears were turning red too.

Lime fanned her face with her hand as if feeling hot.

“You know, can you stop saying things like that out of the blue?”

“Like what?”

Yujin genuinely seemed clueless about what she meant.

Blushing even more, Lime answered in a muffled voice.

“Like saying I’m pretty or that everything looks good on me.”

“But you are pretty, aren’t you?”

“Ugh.”

“Lime, I think you’re the prettiest girl I’ve ever seen.”

Yujin genuinely believed that.

In this world, the average level of appearance is high.

Among them, Yeonghee and Banjang’s beauty is flawless, even as models.

Every man would admire them and consider them beautiful.

But in terms of personal preference, Lime feels closest to what Yujin desires.

Well, Lime’s body was originally created to suit Yujin’s desires, so it was natural.

“So, when I say any clothes will look good on you, I mean it sincerely.”

“P-please stop.”

Finally, Lime surrendered and raised her palm forward.

She couldn’t bear the increasing heat in her face.

It felt like steam might rise from her head.

“Okay, I get it. Since you understand how I feel, you don’t have to say anything anymore.”

“Huh?”

Honestly.

This guy Yujin is the problem.

He lacks so much thought when it comes to relationships,

Yet he shamelessly blurts out embarrassing words like that.

The embarrassment was entirely his own.

There’s no feeling of embarrassment or shame.

Being praised by Yujin is pleasant.

Knowing that he sees her as a woman even gives her a sense of superiority.

But that doesn’t change the fact that her head is heating up separately.

“Anyway, if any clothes suit you, can I choose what I want to wear?”

“Yes, feel free to choose. You can pick around 100 outfits if you want.”

“Why should I care if I buy very expensive clothes?”

“It’s not like it’s your money; it’s given to you at home anyway.”

By the way, Yujin also has a black card.

Yujin, by nature, doesn’t waste money,

But when it comes to Lime, it’s a different story.

Considering the countless help she received from Lime until now,

He was willing to scratch the surface of extravagance.

Thinking of the wealth of Hucheon, buying this entire department store wouldn’t be impossible.

“Anyway, it’s not like it’s my money!”

Isn’t Hukcheon used to dealing with money matters every day?

Even if I write this much, no one will say anything.

“Oh, then there’s an outfit I want to try on.”

Unexpectedly, Lime said in a voice that was unusually hesitant and coquettish.

“Really? What kind of outfit is it?”

“Um, well….”

A moment later,

Lime hid behind the fitting room curtain and cautiously peeked out only her head.

Seeing Lime’s awkward behavior, Eugene burst into laughter.

“Why are you hiding like that?”

“Is it bad if you laugh when you see it?”

“I absolutely won’t laugh, so don’t worry.”

Lime pushed aside the curtain and cautiously stepped out.

The outfit she was wearing was a white school uniform.

Not just any school uniform, but the uniform from the school Eugene attends.

Her blonde hair cascaded down to her waist as she stood there in the white uniform.

Lime fidgeted with her fingers, unsure of what to do.

“How… how does it look? Hehe, does it not suit a monster like me?”

Eugene gazed at her for a moment, captivated by her breathtaking beauty.

It wasn’t just the outfit; Lime’s current appearance was so lovely and girlish.

Eugene couldn’t take her eyes off her.

“Eugene?”

“Oh, uh, yes!”

Only after Lime called out did she belatedly come back to her senses.

“Uh, is it weird?”

“No, it’s really pretty. It suits you well, really.”

“Hehe, I’m relieved then…”

Lime smiled genuinely, looking visibly reassured.

Seeing that smile, Eugene felt her heart flutter once again.

Could it be that Lime wanted to wear a school uniform?

Even though it would be the most familiar outfit to her,

it had a unique impact when Lime wore it.

“But why specifically a school uniform? There are plenty of other clothes.”

“Oh, um….”

Blushing, Lime scratched her cheek shyly.

“Just like you, everyone around you wears this.”

“That’s true.”

Wearing the designated academy uniform made sense in a way.

Especially considering the functionality, convenience, and design of the uniform at Eugene’s school.

There was no real need to wear different clothes.

“So, I wanted to try it on too. Plus, it naturally becomes a couple look with you.”

After saying this, Lime blushed, and a faint flush appeared on her cheeks.

At Lime’s adorable gesture, Eugene swallowed hard.

“Should we go with this one for now? Oh, and I want to see other clothes too.”

“Other clothes? Like what?”

Eugene asked with a twinkle in her eye.

Initially, he had planned to buy Lime various types of clothing.

But seeing Lime in casual attire changed his mind.

Right now, he simply wanted to see Lime in different clothes.

“Still, since there’s a bit of distance, should I go alone?”

“No! I’m fine with anything! Where to?”

At Eugene’s words, Lime flashed a mischievous smile.

****

In the place they went, bras and panties were hanging.

The mannequin in front of the glass window was draped in fabric that seemed to cover important parts, while the poster model flaunted her figure in sensual lingerie.

In short, it was a women’s underwear store.

“…Lime?”

“Yes, why~ Eugene~?”

“Can I just wait outside?”

“No, you can’t~ I won’t let you go~”

Lime smiled brightly, turning to look at Eugene.

“Ugh, I was going to go alone, thinking about bashful Eugene~ But since Eugene said he really wants to go, what can I do~”

It’s a lie.

Look at that mischievous grin she’s trying to suppress.

No matter how you think about it, this was the plan from the start.

Bringing herself to such a store and enjoying her own embarrassment.

She truly was a little devil.

If Lime had a tail, it would surely be swaying playfully.

“I’ve been had.”

Eugene was dragged along like a calf being led to the slaughterhouse.

They entered a slightly larger fitting room where no one else was present.

Was it originally intended for lovers to come here?

In a spacious room the size of a one-room apartment, a mirror and a long chair are placed.

Yujin was forcibly made to sit there.

“Ta-da! How about this?”

“Oh, Lime. Please…”

Yujin blushed and bowed her head deeply.

She didn’t know where to look.

She couldn’t lift her face due to embarrassment.

And that’s because Lime at the moment was dressed in transparent lingerie slip attire.

“It’s too revealing. I don’t think a girl should dress like that.”

“Hmm~ So you think it’s revealing?”

Of course, isn’t it obvious?

The semi-transparent fabric barely covered her body.

Can we even say it covers anything?

It’s so thin that her skin is visible underneath.

Whether it serves the function of ‘clothing’ properly is questionable.

That secretive feeling felt more peculiar than being naked.

“…What’s this? You won’t even look properly when it’s a rare occasion like this?”

“Why are you suddenly looking at underwear in the first place?”

Lime frowned disapprovingly.

Then she turned her head towards Yujin.

“You deserve it. It’s annoying how you left me alone on the island and only talked to other girls.”

Yujin had a lot to say about that point, but for now, she kept her mouth shut.

There’s no need to make unnecessary comments and further anger the situation.

Lime swiftly turned around.

Her transparent underwear and blonde hair swayed together.

Even with just that.

It felt strangely magical, as if one could sense some kind of enchantment.

“…And who knows when they might come in handy.”

“Handy? Where?”

“I don’t know, you fool.”

Lime replied like that and began inspecting the underwear she brought.

Surely she doesn’t have to wear all of them, right?

Lime looked slightly disappointed.

“Well, it’s a shame, but it seems there aren’t any more revealing underwear.”

“Well, your chest doesn’t really need-”

Smack!

She kicked Yujin’s shin.

Seems like that was an unnecessary comment.

In the end, Lime’s ‘punishment’ ended only after she put on all the underwear she brought.
