The next morning.

I stared blankly at the large doll in front of the door and opened my mouth.

Because there was a dinosaur doll that was bigger than me standing there looking cool.

I ran quickly and hugged the doll.

Who on earth gave me this doll?

While I was swinging my body while hanging from the doll, I was able to find a letter lying on the floor.

The handwriting on the letter was my grandfather’s.

It seemed like this dinosaur doll was a gift from my grandfather.

The letter wasn’t very long, but it contained an earnest request not to go outside.

“Hmm…”

I nodded while riding on the dinosaur’s back.

My grandfather asked me to do this, so I could hold back from going outside.

“Jeff. What’s out there?”

Shine’s question was heard from inside the room.

I nodded and answered.

“Yeah. There’s a dinosaur.”

“Dinosaur?”

Shine, who seemed puzzled by my answer, soon left the room.

It looks like my dinosaur wanted to see me.

I waved my hand and moved the dinosaur’s head slightly.

“Grandpa bought me a present.”

“I see…”

Shine reacted indifferently to the sight of my dinosaur.

I sighed.

Even though they were identical twins, it was a pity that Shine didn’t know how cool dinosaurs were.

“Sister. We can’t go outside anymore.”

“Yeah.”

“Are you okay, Sister?”

“Yeah.”

I squinted my eyes at Shine’s short answer, then moved the dinosaur and put it inside the room.

I must remember to take it with me when I go home later.

As I nodded my head in admiration once again for the magnificent sight of the dinosaur, Shine picked me up in her arms.

“Everything is okay as long as Jeff is here.”

I wiggled my arms and legs and escaped from Shine’s embrace.

No matter how much she liked me, Shine’s feelings were so heavy that it was suffocating.

“Where are you going?”

As I was trying to leave the room, Shine asked me.

I answered with a confident expression.

“I’m going to play with Chuchu.”

“Isn’t it time to eat soon?”

“I know.”

“Then come back before it’s too late.”

“Okay!”

I nodded to Shine’s words and ran out of the room.

Just because I came to my grandfather’s house, it didn’t mean I could keep seeing him.

Instead of my grandfather, it was a big puppy named Chuchu who played with me.

After running down the hallway for a while, looking for a place where Chuchu might be, I was able to spot a stranger in the hallway.

He was walking slowly, but when he saw me, he stopped in his tracks.

I too stopped in my tracks and looked at him.

The girl, who was short, was slightly taller than me.

“Who are you?”

The girl began to respond to my questions.

He tilted his head slightly and began to slowly approach me.

Her luscious red hair slowly flutters.

There was strong curiosity in his sparkling eyes.

At the sight of the innocent girl, I took a step back.

Why is there such a little girl in my grandfather’s family name?

“You’re special.”

“Me?”

“Yeah.”

I frowned at the girl’s words.

What on earth are you talking about?

“That’s good timing. I came to see Perman.”

“Our grandfather?”

I was startled by the girl’s words.

The name Perman, as this little girl speaks, was her grandfather’s name.

Who the hell is this girl?

Judging by the way he called his grandfather by his name, he didn’t seem to be an ordinary person.

“Is Perman your grandfather? Then should I call him Unnie?”

“You, who are you…?”

“Perman’s friend.”

I shook my head at the girl’s words and took a step back.

If she was my grandfather’s friend, it would have been right to call her grandmother.

But can we really call this little girl a grandmother?

“And how old are you?”

The girl began to fold her fingers one by one at my words.

It looked really cute, like something a girl of that age would do, but the numbers coming out of her mouth weren’t cute at all.

“70?”

“Ha, Grandma…!”

The girl frowned at my words.

I took two more steps back at the sight of the suspicious girl.

I’m 70 years old, and for some reason I feel like I have a bad smell.

“Where do you see me as a grandmother?”

“But you’re 70 years old.”

“That’s what it feels like, but it’s not exact. It could be 69 years old.”

“It’s not that different…”

The girl coughed at my words and placed her hands on her waist.

That sight seemed funny, like a child trying to act like an adult.

“Anyway, can you give me some directions to Ferman?”

I shook my head in response to that.

“I don’t like it.”

“Why?”

“You’re so suspicious. You can’t take someone whose name you don’t even know to your grandfather?”

“If I tell you my name, will you bring me there?”

“No.”

“Then I won’t tell you.”

I frowned at the old girl’s words.

Is it true that people become eccentric as they get older?

Somehow I started to find that girl annoying.

The girl also frowned as if she didn’t want to give in to me.

After a while, the girl who had been fighting with me in the snow let out a sigh.

I smiled victoriously.

Because it was that girl who avoided eye contact first.

I felt good about winning the snowball fight.

“If you don’t tell me, I can’t help it.”

The girl said that and started walking again.

I scratched my cheek at the natural look.

He didn’t seem to care at all about winning or losing the snowball fight.

What if he really was my grandfather’s guest?

Am I causing trouble?

While I was absentmindedly thinking, the girl disappeared around the corner of the hallway.

I shook my head and moved my feet.

Because I had to go for a morning walk with Chuchu.

Chuchu was lying down in his room.

He was always full of energy in the morning, but when I saw him sleeping, I thought he was very tired.

I tapped Chuchu’s head.

“Wake up, you little shit.”

bruise.

Chuchu barked softly and checked my appearance with only one eye slightly open.

And then you just roll it back up again.

I crossed my arms at the sight.

I dared to come to you, but you don’t even think about getting up.

“Aren’t you going to wake up? Aren’t you going to go for a morning walk?”

Chuchu didn’t answer.

He just flapped his big ears as if he was annoyed.

I thought it might be best to give up on today’s morning walk.

The moment I thought that, my phone started ringing.

Kwaaah! Kwaaang!

Chuchu jumped up in surprise at the dinosaur’s powerful roar.

It seems that the newly set bell sound this time was quite strong.

The person on the phone was Amy.

“Hello?”

[Jeff? Where are you?]

Amy’s voice sounded urgent.

I tilted my head and answered.

“I’m in the Chuchu room.”

[Wait there!]

“Yes.”

As I answered, the call ended.

Chuchu, whose sleep was disturbed, glared at his phone, perhaps not liking the sound of his ringtone.

After sitting with Chuchu for a while, Shine and Amy came looking for me.

Amy reached out and lifted me up, seeing me waving happily.

As I was hanging on to one hand and tilting my head, Amy took out a large bag from behind her and put me inside.

“Oh, Mom?”

“Don’t come out of there!”

I nodded absentmindedly at Amy’s words.

Amy pressed my head as I stood there blankly, then zipped it up.

I was suddenly trapped inside the bag, and I just blinked.

Because I couldn’t even guess what on earth was going on.

The bag shook a few times and then settled somewhere.

It seemed like Amy was carrying it on her back.

I said, poking Amy’s back.

“Mom. What kind of game is this?”

No answer came.

Immediately after that, the bag started shaking back and forth.

Amy appeared to be running.

As I was shaking back and forth inside the bag, I put my finger into the zipper that had come down to the side and created a small crack.

It was an attempt to look beyond that and see what was going on outside.

As I quietly closed my mouth and brought my face closer, the outside view began to become blurry.

Amy was running fast.

The same goes for Shine, who is right next to me.

Why on earth are you running like this?

Should we go for breakfast?

The moment I tilted my head and licked my tongue, Amy untied the bag she was carrying on her back and threw it somewhere.

I was floating in the air, spinning around, when I finally landed on a soft surface.

I couldn’t stand it anymore.

The moment I opened the zipper and popped my head out, my cheeks puffed out, I could tell that this was the interior of Amy’s favorite car.

Amy threw me in her bag into the backseat.

“Mom!”

“Shh! Don’t come out yet!”

Amy said that and pressed my head hard.

I sighed and went back into my bag.

Without even hearing an explanation, the car started moving.

All I could do during that time was fiddle with my phone in my bag.

How much time has passed?

The car, which had been running smoothly, stopped, and a tapping sound was heard from the top of the bag, along with Amy’s voice.

“It’s okay to come out now.”

At those words, I opened my zipper and stuck my head out.

“What the hell is going on?”

I looked around and asked questions.

The car had been running for a while, so I had expected it, but as expected, it had already passed my grandfather’s castle.

“That’s it. The people I mentioned yesterday came to see me.”

“Are you a noble?”

“Yeah.”

“So that’s why you left so quickly?”

“That’s right.”

I sighed.

After all, those nobles seemed like rude people.

Coming here so early in the morning and interrupting our mealtime, my image of the so-called nobles began to deteriorate.

“Mom. I’m hungry.”

I said with a tearful face, unable to get out of my bag.

Because by now, I should be eating a delicious breakfast.

At my grandfather’s house, I was really looking forward to the salad I always had for breakfast.

“Okay. I’ll make you dinner when I get back.”

So the car started moving again.

I blankly stare out the window at the sight of the cool ride down the long road.

“Grandpa must be having a hard time. Guests are coming in this early in the morning.”

“Right…”

I yawned and laid down.

Another advantage of the smaller body is that it can comfortably fit in the back seat of a car.

If it were Shine, she wouldn’t have been able to stretch out her legs like this.
