“Hehe, Oppa. I missed you.”

It was the same morning as usual.

The child I met again for the morning consultation.

Looking down at the girl burrowing into my arms as if used to it by now, I had to hold my breath.

“Oppa, didn’t you miss me?”

“Y-Yes, I missed you.”

“Really?”

Instead of answering, I responded by putting my hand on her waist.

Only then, the child, enjoying the warm embrace quietly with a blush as if understanding.

-Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump!

Separately from that, my heart started beating like crazy.

“Oppa, why is your heart beating so fast?”

Perhaps thanks to her sensitive senses, the child even figured out my heartbeat.

I forced open my parched throat and replied.

“W-Well, I don’t know haha……”

“Hmm, you don’t seem sick, but it’s strange.”

It was an ordinary daily life, but my heart was beating faster than ever.

“And this smell… Did you spray perfume?”

“Ah, yes. I recently became interested in perfume.”

“Hmmmm……”

The child spoke less and less.

As if thinking deeply about something, she gradually raised her head and met my eyes.

Her cherry-like lips, which had been closed, moved slowly.

“Lie.”

At the child’s single word, I felt a sudden chill.

My spine tingled, and goosebumps appeared all over my body.

-Squeeze.

“Ugh……”

Pain shot up from my pinky finger.

Unbeknownst to me, my pinky finger was grasped in the child’s hand.

It’s scary.

And I was afraid.

If it were a Magical Girl’s body, just a little pressure would turn her pinky finger into something that used to be there.

“Oppa……”

“Ugh… Yes.”

My brow furrowed in pain, but I managed to answer somehow.

If I didn’t answer, it felt like my finger would just be broken.

“Whose smell is it?”

“……”

“Did you think you could cover it up with perfume? Or shall I find out whose smell it is with magic?”

In the end, God must not have helped me.

Perhaps I knew it would turn out like this all along.

After all, the fact of cohabitation would have been discovered someday anyway.

“……Ayi, please listen carefully to what I’m about to say.”

“Yes, tell me. Tell me what kind of girl left so many traces on your body.”

To somehow persuade Ayi.

And to clear up the misunderstanding between Freyfe and me.

I told her everything I knew.

What kind of child Freyfe is, and what kind of abuse she suffered since childhood.

And even what kind of illness she currently has.

Finally, why her scent was on my body.

With a small hope, I inwardly prayed that Ayi would understand.

However.

-Squeeze.

“Ah, Ayi……”

“So…… you’re openly blabbing in front of me about living with another girl?”

Where did the usually kind and gentle child go?

All I saw in front of my eyes now was a brutal Magical Girl consumed by the emotion called obsession.

My finger was almost broken.

“Ha…… If I had known it would turn out like this, I would have just spilled it first… Haha. Oppa, do you know how frustrated I am right now?”

“There was absolutely no physical contact that Ayi might be thinking of. I was just focused on living an ordinary life like a family……”

“Oppa.”

Ayi lifted the pinky finger she had gripped tightly.

Soon, the pinky finger went up to her face and her mouth opened.

For a moment, I closed my eyes to prepare for the pain that was about to come.

-Crunch.

“Ugh.”

“Oppa……”

This damp and moist sensation.

A soft tongue touched me, but then white teeth began to chew at the base of my pinky finger.

Because the pain was stronger than expected, only groaning sounds came out.

“You said it was a special relationship… You said you wouldn’t have this kind of relationship with other girls, but you’re living together… Moreover, what? Nothing happened?”

“No… It’s really just.”

“A man and a woman are under the same roof, and you’re telling me to believe that?”

I couldn’t argue with Ayi’s words.

If someone you like is living with another person of the opposite sex, who would accept that?

I have to find a way out.

If this continues, my pinky finger might be torn off.

‘Some kind of negotiation material that Ayi would like…’

After all, negotiation is only possible when both sides agree.

Since I had already trampled on Ayi’s feelings, it was a situation where I had to back down.

“Then let’s do this, Ayi……. What you’re worried about will absolutely not happen. And…….”

“Hmm… Tell me more, Oppa.”

“Sh-Shall we go on a date or something?”

“Hmm?”

Perhaps surprised by my words, Ayi’s pure white teeth slightly distanced themselves from my finger.

Although I had charmed Ayi, until now we had only done consultations and physical contact.

We hadn’t done anything that people in a romantic relationship would do.

Our relationship was one where we hadn’t even gone on a date, something so common.

From the beginning, I had vaguely passed it off as a ‘special relationship’, not lovers.

So I proposed it as compensation to Ayi.

To do something like a normal couple.

However, I was half-hearted about this proposal myself.

Would she accept this? What if she wanted something bigger?

“A date… A date is good. But that’s not enough.”

“Then…….”

“Oppa. Then let’s do this.”

One side of Ayi’s mouth gradually curled up, forming a sinister smile.

“For one week, let’s break away from the `special relationship`.”

“Huh?”

Break away from the special relationship that Ayi considered so important?

I was a little confused by what she was saying.

“So, let’s break away from the relationship of consultant and attending doctor. For exactly one week, be my lover. Then… well, I’ll forgive you for this.”

“If we’re lovers…….”

“Well, you know, Oppa. Contact each other more often, change how you address each other. If Oppa wants……”

She slightly lowered the white dress she was wearing, revealing her cleavage.

“You can enjoy this body, right?”

“……”

“How about it. If Oppa loves me as a lover for one week, I’ll forgive you.”

Becoming lovers for a week.

In a way, it seemed simple, but it was also a little frightening.

How would our relationship change after a week?

Perhaps Ayi’s obsession might slightly decrease, or it might become even more intense.

However, I seemed to have almost no choice.

‘If I can get her to acknowledge the cohabitation with Freyfe with this.’

I saw hope that I could continue counseling the two Magical Girls in the future.

“I accept.”

Only then did Ayi smile brightly at my words agreeing to be her lover for a week.

Perhaps she had forgiven me, she spat out my ragged finger and hugged me tightly.

“Yes, so I’ll forgive you.”

“Thank you… Ayi-yang.”

“Oppa. Are you going to call your girlfriend that stiffly?”

It seems to have started now.

The address.

I usually called her Ayi-yang or Ayi, so I was at a loss as to what to call her.

“You should call me ‘Jagiya’ or something similar, with a little more affection and softness.”

“Ah, alright, Jagiya.”

“Hmm…!”

Ayi, satisfied, nestled into my arms lovingly.

However, as if something was missing, she began to gaze intently at my neck.

“Yeonwoo Oppa, pull your clothes down a bit.”

“My clothes?”

As Ayi said, I slightly lowered my outer jacket and shirt.

Ayi examined my body for a moment.

Thinking deeply about something, she began to act.

Ayi’s mouth approaching calmly.

Was she going to leave a hickey like last time?

And seeing her mouth opening and the white teeth shining inside, fear slowly began to approach.

Just as Ayi’s face drew closer to my shoulder.

-Crunch.

“Ah, Ayi!!!”

“Hmm.”

Sudden pain began to surge from my shoulder.

A strange sensation of digging in and a bizarre pain accompanied by rising heat.

I soon realized what the source of the pain was.

‘She bit my shoulder?’

Looking at Ayi’s teeth digging into my skin, I couldn’t say anything.

Suddenly, my shoulder… Why?

More than that, the surging pain made me involuntarily frown and act reflexively.

-Push.

With the intention of forcefully pushing her away, I used all my strength to push her shoulder.

But Ayi didn’t budge.

Recognizing the clear difference in strength, I could only wait.

Had about a minute passed?

Just as the pain was becoming familiar.

Ayi’s lips, which had been buried in my shoulder, pulled away, and only then could I escape the pain.

“Hehe.”

Ayi naturally licked away the blood on her lips with her tongue.

Far from guilt, her eyes seemed full of satisfaction.

“Ah, Ayi. Still, doing something like this suddenly is…”

“Why? The other girl needs to know too. Whose Oppa you are. Isn’t that natural for a girlfriend?”

“….”

There was nothing more to say to Ayi, whose eyes seemed lost.

Let’s just endure for a week.

After that, we can go back to being consultant and attending doctor.

‘It doesn’t look like it will scar… I didn’t realize Ayi was this unstable.’

Both the pinky incident and Ayi’s increasingly bold actions made me gasp.

What will come next?

“If Oppa is worried too, do you want to bite my shoulder?”

She naturally lowered her white dress-like clothing, revealing her fair shoulder.

Beautiful shoulder like white jade without a single blemish, looking tempting to bite into like rice cake.

I felt like it would smell good, but I vehemently refused.

How dare a normal person like me leave a mark on Ayi, who is a public figure?

And I even questioned if my teeth could even penetrate.

“It’s fine… Thank you.”

“That’s a shame. Since we’re a couple, it would have been nice to engrave things like this together.”

I pulled up my outer jacket to cover my shoulder and thought.

How should I deal with this obsession that has developed in Ayi?

And would my body even remain intact?

***

After Ayi’s consultation ended, I headed out of the consultation room for the next consultation schedule.

Where I was going was simple.

Not a faraway place, but a very familiar one.

-Beep beep. Beep. Fingerprint recognition confirmed.

Only after unlocking the two locks installed at home did the door open.

After living with Freyfe, I had to add several locks to the house.

Just in case someone could see from outside, blackout curtains had to be installed on all windows.

And to prepare for someone entering the house, I doubled the locks.

And…….

“You’re here…?”

Finally, the house was guarded by Freyfe.

Freyfe was sitting in front of the front door as if waiting for me.

She was in her OFF state, not transformed into a Magical Girl, sitting on the cold floor waiting for me.

“Are you… not going out for activities today?”

“Oh, I’m just going to rest until today. And we were supposed to have the consultation at home today, weren’t we?”

“Yes…. Let’s put down your things first.”

Freyfe’s eyes, looking up at me with a twisted smile, were dead.

Those dark eyes only stared at me as if only I needed to be contained within them.

And finally, she began to cling tightly beside me.

“F-First, let’s go to the sofa, Consultant.”

“Yes….”
