Chapter Index

    I called Shine and Rain and headed to a corner.

    Amy’s eyes would be on it, but she wouldn’t hear its voice.

    Whispering, he opened his mouth to Shine and Rain in the lowest voice possible.

    “… Shine, Rain, we have to go outside.”

    “Why…?”

    Rain tilted his head at my words and asked back.

    I clutched my chest in frustration.

    Isn’t Rain even angry?

    There was no doubt that he had been excluded from this mission because it was dangerous and because he was young.

    I was dissatisfied with it.

    Shouldn’t you have at least said something?

    Amy kept us here, deceiving us until the day of the mission.

    A perfect sealed room.

    If you can’t get through Amy, you’re stuck in a place you can’t get out.

    “Jin was excluded from the mission… Then, there’s no need to go out, right?”

    I sighed at Rain’s words.

    Of course, she was right.

    But I wanted to at least go to Jin and ask him about it.

    I’m not young. I’m an adult.

    That means one person can do their part properly.

    “Will you help me?”

    Rain’s gaze, which had been lingering on me, turned to Amy.

    At that moment, she seemed to recall the memory of the butt rub, and she flinched, grabbing her butt.

    “Ha, but… Amy told me not to go out…”

    “Rain. I can’t go alone. I can’t beat Amy. All three of us have to work together.”

    I took Rain’s hand and turned my gaze to Shine.

    She took a step back, as if reluctant.

    “Shine…”

    “Jeff, I can’t grant your request this time. If Jin was exempted from the mission, there must have been a good reason.”

    “Shine…”

    “No. Don’t look at me like that.”

    I looked at Shine with a pitiful gaze.

    He mumbles and pretends to be as pitiful as possible.

    Your only brother is trapped in this stuffy place and he’s telling you he wants to get out. You’re not going to help him?

    He looks at Shine with those eyes.

    Shine was weak to my requests.

    It meant that he would grant any and all requests.

    But this time it was an exception.

    Shine turned her head away.

    “Shine!”

    I called out to Shine and covered my mouth in surprise.

    Because the voice got too loud.

    I turned my head slowly to check Amy’s expression, and saw her looking at me with a meaningful smile.

    Sir, have you heard my whole story?

    No, it’s not.

    Although Amy’s physical abilities are said to be outstanding, they are limited to her physical durability.

    “I, I don’t want to get spanked.”

    Shine returned to her seat, rubbing her buttocks as if recalling the memories of that day.

    Now only Rain remains.

    But Rain also hesitated and was backing away from me.

    “Rain…!”

    I exerted my strength not to let go of her hand.

    Kook- Dig between the little fingers and hold the hand.

    “That, that… Sorry!”

    Lane succumbed to fear.

    The little chick turns around and runs to his place.

    I looked at the two girls with a vain expression.

    Now I’m left alone.

    I was disappointed.

    “Jeff. What’s not working out?”

    As I stood there with such a blank expression, Amy spoke to me with a small smile.

    I turned my head to the side.

    It clearly conveys the intention to be upset.

    Don’t talk to me.

    I’m not feeling well right now.

    But Amy burst out laughing at my appearance.

    I stuck out my lips.

    I hate you.

    I’m serious.

    It didn’t seem like a serious situation to Amy.

    In that case, I had no choice but to do it alone.

    Since I couldn’t get past Amy head-on, I had to make her let her guard down.

    I pretended to give up and went back to my seat.

    I sat down and looked at my face in the mirror.

    A girl with a grumpy expression glares at the mirror.

    I raised the corners of my lips slightly.

    The girl with the sad expression gives an awkward smile.

    This is not it.

    I shook my head.

    And smile again.

    You should smile as naturally as possible.

    A natural smile, to the point where I thought I had given up on going out.

    “Hey… Jeff, eat this…”

    Rain, who had been watching me, gave me his snack with an apologetic expression.

    A large box of sweet jelly is brought over to my desk.

    I looked at Rain with only one eye slightly lowered.

    Did you really think that jelly would ease my mind?

    I tried to push the box away to show my refusal.

    However, the jelly’s beautiful appearance caught my attention.

    The cutely shaped jellies sparkled and tempted me.

    I was like I was possessed, picking up the jelly and putting it in my mouth.

    A sweet scent that spreads the moment it touches your mouth, and a refreshing texture.

    The moment you move your mouth and chew the jelly, the syrup hidden inside bursts out.

    As I was savoring the jelly, I suddenly came to my senses and shook my head.

    He also slaps the cheeks.

    You’re just obsessed with jelly.

    This couldn’t be happening.

    “… Is it delicious?”

    Rain, who had been watching quietly, asked with an awkward smile.

    I nodded.

    The jelly was delicious.

    I couldn’t lie.

    Shine opened her book and started studying, as if she had no intention of going out.

    I approached Amy with the box of jelly that Lane had given me.

    I controlled my facial expression as I walked.

    Bright smile. Bright smile.

    Never doubt it.

    “Amy.”

    “Yeah.”

    “Would you like some jelly?”

    I handed Amy the jelly.

    The jelly packed in a pretty box is sure to be delicious.

    Amy would definitely lose her mind if she fell in love with the taste of this jelly.

    “Shall I try one?”

    The moment Amy reached out her hand, I could hear a strange clicking sound.

    Crash?

    Crash?

    It was a sound I clearly remembered.

    The sound of something being filled.

    As I thought that, I felt a cold sensation on my arm.

    A bracelet that suppresses one’s abilities is placed on one’s arm.

    I looked up at Amy in horror.

    She smiled triumphantly, shoving a small jelly into her mouth.

    “Oh no!”

    He let out a short scream and fell to the ground.

    How, how did you notice?

    The plan to escape while they were addicted to the taste of jelly failed.

    Without even trying.

    “Hey, Amy… why did you fill this bracelet?”

    I lifted my arm, which was covered with bracelets, and spoke sobbingly.

    Then Amy patted my head and answered.

    “You don’t need to use your abilities in the office.”

    She was right.

    But, but…

    I bowed my head.

    Then Amy took me in her arms and patted my back.

    Now I didn’t even have the strength left to struggle.

    She walked to my seat, holding me in her arms, and sat me down there.

    Then he pats my head.

    As if this is my place.

    It seemed to be telling me not to leave this place.

    So after Amy turned back to the door, I looked at the bracelet.

    With this bracelet, I couldn’t use my powers.

    I feel exhausted.

    The thought of not being able to go out made me not want to do anything.

    As I slumped down on the desk, Shine’s face came into view through my slanted eyes.

    Shine.

    How can you be so calm?

    Shine.

    You look like me, but why are you so different?

    Shine.

    Shine.

    Shine.

    oh.

    As I thought about Shine, I could recall something she had said in passing.

    Back when I was going to school, Amy sent me a bracelet that suppressed my abilities.

    In a situation where I can’t use my abilities like now, Shine said to me.

    You can take that bracelet off.

    Is that true?

    Shine doesn’t lie.

    I looked at Amy’s face.

    She seemed a little relieved as she put the bracelet on me and was using her cell phone.

    Don’t look this way.

    Now was the chance.

    I pushed the chair over and approached Shine.

    “Over there… Shine.”

    “Yeah.”

    Shine answered without even raising her head.

    I said, extending my arm over the book she was reading.

    “You said you could solve this?”

    Let’s do this. Shine raised her head.

    Her white eyes turn towards me.

    “Jeff, Amy told you not to go out.”

    “I’m not trying to leave. I’m asking you to take off my bracelet.”

    “If you let go, he’ll try to get out.”

    “… You mean you can solve it?”

    Shine shut her mouth as I answered her with a question instead of an answer.

    Judging by her reaction, she definitely knew how to take off this bracelet.

    How can I get Shine to grant my request?

    I lay back down on the desk and thought about it again.

    I thought and thought again.

    Shine’s favorite things.

    Things I like….

    That’s me.

    me.

    me…

    I swallowed dry saliva and sat up.

    Amy wasn’t looking at this right now, her mind was focused on her phone screen.

    “Over there… Shine…”

    He brings his mouth to Shine’s ear and whispers.

    It was such a small voice that even Rain, sitting next to me, probably couldn’t hear it.

    Shine flinched at the sound of my voice.

    I moved closer and whispered in a small voice.

    “If you let me go, I’ll make you do something weird…”

    Shine shuddered at my words.

    I continued speaking as it was.

    “Just… Just let her go… Without Amy knowing…”

    Gulp-

    Shine swallows and catches her breath.

    Her breathing had become ragged.

    The tips of the ears begin to turn red.

    It was clear that he was imagining something bad.

    “Hey, why are you trying to go out like that…?”

    “Because I want to go. Because I have to. Because that will help Amy.”

    Shine, who was listening to me, frowned and tilted her head.

    “You have to go?”

    “Yeah…”

    Oh, my.

    This is not it.

    I thought I had gotten over it all, but Shine reached out as if something was strange.

    Her hand brushed my forehead.

    A little touch.

    However, the shock that reached my head was not light.

    My head is ringing.

    thud-

    My body is pushed back as if I received a great shock.

    I was pushed away helplessly and slumped into the chair.

    “Uhh…”

    I couldn’t understand what was happening to my body.

    All I could do was watch Shine approach with a frown on her face.

    “Jeff, you said there was a problem with the baby?”

    I nodded absentmindedly.

    Yes, that’s right.

    The baby was now broken.

    My mother didn’t answer my words.

    But why are you suddenly bringing up baby talk?

    “Just check… No. Let’s talk later tonight.”

    Shine, who was about to get up from her seat and touch my hair, looked at Amy’s expression and whispered in a small voice.

    I just nodded blankly.

    “Rain. Take care of Jeff. I have to study.”

    Shine sent me, who was drooping, to Rain’s side.

    The chair’s wheels roll around and arrive at the seat next to Lane.

    “Ouch. Yeah!”

    Rain looked at me with my sagging shoulders and nodded.

    Then he started taking out sweet snacks one by one from his bag.
