“Unfair world…”
“What the hell is the difference?”
“Lina, did you cast some kind of spell on Logz?”
The three people who were looking at Logs playing happily with the children with displeasure turned their gaze to Lina.
Lina herself shook her head with a look of surprise.
The trio quickly put their doubts aside and turned their gaze.
“Is that you, Gourik!”
“I don’t have any magic skills?”
Gourik said those words while surrounded by girls.
“That makes sense, since he’s handsome…”
“What on earth did that guy do?”
Lina said to Sarah, who was denying reality.
“Logs aren’t ugly either.”
“Are you saying that?”
Kadira shook her head, muttering, ““I thought I could have a face too, but…”” while lying face down.
“The eyes and pupils are quite scary, but…the kids seem to like them, right?”
“Eddo, who is rumored to like those guys, tried hard for almost 3 years with this face to finally become friends with them… Wait, what about me who hasn’t been able to become friends with them until now? Does that mean I’m a worse person than a loser?”
Following Sarah, who suddenly became confused, Kadira also seemed shocked by those words and began repeating the same words.
“I’m a lower class person than a loser? Why, why, why, why…”
“Calm down for now. Then the kids will get scared again.”
“The children must not feel fear. I will put them in the warehouse for now and come back.”
At Lina’s words, Adun lifted Sarah and Kadira, who were going crazy, as if they were stretchers and walked towards the warehouse.
“Thank you so much.”
“That’s natural.”

‘You may think we’re having a small talk, but…’
I can hear everything…
He was used to this kind of treatment, so he didn’t feel hurt. However, Logs shed tears inside at the thought of becoming accustomed to this kind of treatment.
However, there was not much time to feel sad in a situation where the children had taken away the initiative in both arms.
At this moment, when the angle of my whole body was changing, once to the right and once to the left, there was only one thing that was important.
‘How do I solve this?’
“Brother is going to play tag with us!”
“What are you talking about! Oppa is going to play house with us!”
The deafening roar went straight into both ears. At this level, even Sarah would win.
The owners of that volume were two children.
On the right is a girl’s voice, on the left is a boy’s voice.
I pulled my arm away as if I was pulling it out with the determination not to give up.
“Taking tag is more fun than those boring games!”
“You cried last time because you got hurt playing tag!”
The boy shouted with a blush on his face, perhaps feeling embarrassed by those words.
“When did I ever cry!”
“You cried last week too…Oh yeah! You cried yesterday too.”
“Then you’re not crying! You were crying alone when you got lost in the mountains last time!”
There was nothing strange about what the boy said. However, the girl who heard the story stuttered with her pupils dilated.
“How do you know that? I didn’t tell anyone… ”
The boy sighed at her answer, saying, ““ah…”,” and looked away as if he had been asked a difficult question.
“No way…”
The girl approached the boy, perhaps sensing something in his appearance.
“That’s what the nun said again!”
“Close… !”
The boy backed away from the girl, hiding his face that had been filled with emotions different from before.
“Hey! Don’t avoid it and tell me! Right?”
The boy fidgeted like a thief who had something to hide, then calmed his trembling mouth and opened his mouth.
“Oh, that’s right.”
Although the answer did not seem to be true, the girl seemed to believe it obediently.
“As expected…you said you’d keep it a secret…”
“Huh? Hey, that…”
The boy noticed that she was sobbing and immediately reached out his right arm, but his left hand quickly grabbed it and brought it down.
And as if he wasn’t flustered, he folded his hands and raised them above his head.
“Ah, this isn’t fun anymore! Just go play with your brother.”
The boy quickly ran away from that place. The other boys also felt sorry for those words, but they dispersed from that place without saying a word.
“Blondie, are you okay? Liam, he’s leaving without even apologizing…”
‘Their names are Blondie and Liam.’
We fought without giving an inch, but we felt very close. The reason…isn’t important!
How should I comfort you?
Even grown adults can’t console me, so children are too high up in my arse!
If only I could give them some advice like the other kids…wouldn’t that be okay!!
Then I’ll cry more! And when I cry…
For a moment, Adga showed me an angry expression. I feel like we’ve become closer recently, so I can’t do that.
But if we just sit here and don’t offer any consolation,
Once again, Ad’s angry expression was visible.
‘What do you want me to do!’
As I was clutching my head in confusion, more embarrassed than the kids, Lina approached Blondie, who was crying.
“Right, why is our blondie crying?”
“Black…tea, I’m embarrassed…”
Lina gently placed her hand on the blondie’s head and slowly stroked it.
“Are you embarrassed because you were caught crying because you were scared?”
As she asked why the girl was crying, a voice that seemed to be comforting her was heard from her mouth. No one would not be comforted by that voice.
Blondie stopped crying and shook her head.
“Then why?”
“I was embarrassed that Liam caught me…and I was embarrassed that I cried because of it…”
“I see…but if it were me, I think I’d be really embarrassed if I got caught crying to the person I liked.”
Blondie’s face turned red. The girls around her didn’t react much, probably because they already knew. But I’m invisible?
Have you forgotten I was there?
If you say that in front of me, Blondie…
“But if Blondie cries, the oppa who came here for the first time will be even more flustered, so should we stop now?”
‘Did you say that on purpose?’
I couldn’t understand her baseless confidence, but she smiled as if everything was okay.
I looked at her and then at Blondie.
Lina’s comfort seemed to have worked, so she wiped away her tears. Then she slowly turned around and hugged Lina.
“Wouldn’t your sister have been like that too?”
“Yeah, I bet your sister did the same thing.”
“Really? Hehe…”
It may feel a bit too simple, but I guess that’s the advantage children have.
While I was dumbfounded, Lina and Blondie’s gaze shifted to me.
“You’re not planning on telling the girls’ secret, are you?”
Lina caught the playful tone in her voice. She was trying to break the mood now.
But if I were to give a simple answer here, it would not only be inconsolable to Blondie, but it would also be boring.
But don’t worry.
I don’t know about anything else, but there is something I remember clearly from a fairy tale book the nun read to me.
It was a scene where a princess was talking to another princess and confessed that she liked a prince. At that time, the princess said this to the prince’s knight who was listening from the side.
No matter how I think about it, that picture book is one that a lot of girls read.
I was a little disappointed when the nun read the book to me, but at that time, everything was fine except the Bible.
But now you don’t have to regret it, because hearing it helped you now.
‘thank you!’
And I answered confidently.
“Yes, Princess.”
I said my lines in a serious but slightly relaxed voice. Now, if only Lina would laugh at the end and lighten the mood…
“Lina?”
Lina didn’t listen to my lines and just froze. For some reason, her ears started turning a little red… Could it be that she’s angry?
Looking back, I can’t help but feel like I may have gotten a little too far ahead of myself.
But you could have answered it. Was it really that bad?
I walked over to Blondie, who was being held by Lina, berating myself for my mistake.
“Did you not like this line?”
“No! I think it’s really cool!”
It was not a forced tone, but a tone that spoke from the heart. Her eyes were still red, but she was smiling as if her mood had improved.
I breathed a sigh of relief at not having to be chased by Ad.
“Thank goodness, thanks for helping Lina too.”
I turned my gaze to Lina, who was staring blankly into space. She turned her head to me as if she had come to her senses upon hearing my voice.
Lina and I looked into each other’s eyes for a moment. If we avoided it here, Lina might get embarrassed.
I smiled without avoiding it.
Unlike me, Lina hid from my sight by placing Blondie in front of me, whom she was holding. However, Lina’s figure, which was much larger than Blondie, was not hidden.
Lina looked back and forth between hiding behind Blondie and the floor.
“Since it’s your first time. Of course, I should help you.”
The corners of her lips were caught in the eye as she smiled. Oh… no way.
Did I find it that funny?
I snorted with confidence. It feels good to be liked this much.
“Sister Lina?”
“Huh?”
Lina answers Blondie’s question.
Blondie smiled wickedly at Lina’s condition.
“We’re going to play house. Can you come with me?”
“Jo, good! Should I do it like last time?”
Blondie shook her head. Then she smiled and said,
“Today, Lina’s role is Mom! And this oppa is Dad!”
“What, what are you talking about!”
“I don’t care. I’ve never done it before.”
Lina, who felt a burning emotion somewhere at Logs’ blunt agreement, stood up from her spot and shouted.
“I’m the only one who finds this weird!!”
And then there she was, running to the warehouse where Sarah and the kids were.
Logs, who was confused, looked at the place Lina ran to for a while and then looked at Blondie and the kids.
Blondie smiled a similarly wicked smile as before and placed her arms on her hips.
“Hoohoo! Revenge succeeded.”
“Sometimes I see that you have something in common with Liam.”
“That’s not it?”
Amidst the murmuring of the children, someone’s gentle voice was heard.
“Kids? Let’s go in and have lunch.”
The person who confirmed it with the children was a nun.
As soon as the children realized that the person who had asked them was a nun, they smiled and answered.
““Yes!!””
Blondie also entered the daycare center with a brave face, as if she had been wondering where the child who had burst into tears earlier had gone. It’s really too simple.
“Did you say logs?”
“Ah…yes. And feel free to speak freely.”
A nun wearing a cross around her neck.
I’ve already been on the cross three times, thinking it was a bad thing… but two of those three times weren’t as bad as I thought.
Of course, that doesn’t mean the reluctance and unpleasant feelings toward that thing have disappeared.
They both just had good human nature.
The only people left in the vacant lot where the children were playing were me and the nun.
The first person to speak was a nun.
“What did you say to me just now?”
‘ah…’
I thought you didn’t hear it.
