49. The End of a Peaceful Daily Life (1)

After a night of making out with him, I got up and sat on the sofa in the living room, caressing my lower abdomen, still feeling his seed inside me, and thought.

I kept squeezing him without thinking about contraception, only thinking about what was going on with him…

‘ Of course, it doesn’t matter if it happens… but there are still things that need to be taken care of… ‘

I slowly counted the number of cycles while feeling my lower abdomen, slightly swollen with his seed. It seemed to have passed by just in time.

Thinking about it any longer would only give me a headache, I decided to wash off my sweat and the sticky traces of sex, and when I came out of the shower, there he was in the kitchen cooking, as if he had just woken up from sleep.

I walked up to him from behind and hugged him.

” Are you awake? ”

” Yeah, are you feeling better? ”

” I’m fine… but this isn’t the place for me? ”

I was aroused by the thought of having my breasts, now quite large enough to hold with one hand, pressed against his back while I was still wearing only a towel after showering, or perhaps it was the inevitable morning phenomenon that made me go down…

We stayed in the kitchen again until the sun fully emerged past dawn…

While we were having lunch together after taking a bath, he asked me.

” Charlotte, are you… okay? ”

” Huh? What? Oh, if it’s about birth control, then it’s fine. It’s close, but my period has passed. ”

” Huh…? Oh, no, that’s not it. I’m talking about memory. ”

” Memory? What memory are you talking about? ”

” So… ‘Memories of the past when I was a man’. ”

While I was eating, I suddenly wondered what he was going to say, and when I saw him talking nonsense, I thought I had squeezed him too hard.

” What are you talking about? Who was the guy? ”

” Huh? That’s it… ”

As he stared intently at me, I realized that he was talking about me.

But, no matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand. Why do they say I was a man? I was originally a ‘woman’…

” Seriously… What are you talking about? I was born a woman… and you poured it out inside me without stopping… ”

” I really don’t remember? ”

” Haa… Of course, my memories of living in another world disappeared, and when I returned, a lot of my memories of the past were gone, but I was a ‘girl’ ever since I was born. ”

When I spoke firmly and put down the fork I was holding in my hand, he finally apologized to me.

” Sorry, I think I got confused. Wait, I’ll go call my brother. ”

” Do whatever you want. ”

I put the dishes I used on the sink and lay down on the sofa in the living room.

He went into the bedroom saying he was going to call his ‘brother’ and I suddenly wondered why he had said that.

‘Why, did you suddenly ask me if I had lost my memories of being a man? I was originally a woman… So… to him… ‘

No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t figure out the reason.

I just lay still on the sofa, closed my eyes, caressed my lower abdomen, and felt the slightly hot but pleasant breeze as I fell asleep.

*****

He must have been tired from the activities he had been doing since last night and this morning, because when he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the setting sun.

” Ugh… huhuhu…! ”

I stretched and looked around. There was a simple sandwich on the table along with a note from him telling me he was going to see my brother.

As I moved my body, the thin blanket flowed down from my body, so I guess he must have covered me while I was sleeping.

I thought as I took a bite of my sandwich.

‘Should I just wait until he comes? Or…’

My worries disappeared as I heard the door opening and I walked towards the door.

” You’re here?! Oh… Sister…? ”

” Why? Are you disappointed that I came? ”

My sister in a wheelchair was at the door.

” Oh, no! Is it okay to move already? ”

” I think I don’t have any major health problems because you come and check on me every day. It’s just that I don’t move around much, so it’s still a little hard for me to move my body. ”

” Really? That’s good. Let’s go in. ”

I pushed my sister’s wheelchair and headed to the living room.

My sister, who came into the room, moved the wheelchair and looked around his room, and started saying, ‘They really are a complete couple.’

As my sister was about to head to the bedroom, I remembered that I still hadn’t cleaned up the traces of yesterday’s sex, so I blocked her path.

” Hey, here later… I’ll show you later! But what brings you here? ”

” Hmm… Seeing you so flustered… did you do it? ”

” Ugh… So, so…! Why did you come? ”

My sister looked at me without saying a word, then turned and headed to the living room and called me for a glass of water. I gave her a glass of water with ice in it for her to come all the way here in this hot weather, and she took a sip and opened her mouth.

” Yuji Seok. Do you remember this name? ”

” Yuji…Seok? No, if you look at the name ‘Yu’, are you related? ”

At my words, my sister said, “I see… That’s exactly what you said…” and lowered her head slightly, shedding tears.

” Sister… Are you okay? ”

” Oh, sorry. No. It’s okay if you don’t remember. ”

” Really? ”

My sister wiped away the tears she was shedding and slowly spoke in her usual voice.

” Okay. Then, shall we take a look? ”

My sister holds my hand with a meaningful smile. And from her mouth…

” How was your first experience? ”

” Hey, what are you talking about all of a sudden! ”

To my sister’s question, my face burned and I just stood there dumbfounded as if something had exploded with a ‘bang’.

Well, in the end… I ended up telling my sister about the night he and I spent together…

*****

” Then I’ll go. ”

” Yeah, take care. ”

As I was opening the door for my sister to go out and helping her out, she suddenly turned her head and looked at me.

” Ah! Even though it’s a festival starting tomorrow, if you do it too much, your body will get tired~ ”

” Hey, hurry up and go…! ”

I waited until my sister, who was leaving with a smile on her face as if she was happy, disappeared before entering the room.

I closed the front door and sat down.

Through the window that led from the hallway into the living room, the moon was visible, shining brightly in the dark night.

” Sigh… You really talk a lot… ”

The room became quiet after my sister left.

‘ Was it originally… this quiet…? ‘

Since he usually comes home later than me when I work, I would normally be spending time alone like this.

But why do I feel more… quiet and lonely today?

” Phew, let’s make something simple first. ”

As I was cooking something simple in the kitchen for him to eat when he came back, the feeling of loneliness gradually disappeared.

Why did I feel that way?

Clearly, it was the same time and place as usual, but why was I so lonely?

When I think about why that might have been, only one thing comes to mind.

That he and I were connected. That’s all.

While I was cooking, I touched my lower abdomen with my remaining hand. It should have definitely returned to its original size, but it still felt a little bloated.

‘Oh, I see…’

When I touched his belly, I could tell that I… wanted him.

Once you taste a sweet fruit… you can never forget its sweetness.

I kept hoping for that night, that hot heat.

After finishing cooking, I covered it and sat at the table, waiting for him to come.

I feel sorry for my sister, but… tonight… looks like it’s going to be another hot night with him.

*****

” Let’s see, today… How about going around the festival with Ara and Pedro? ”

After showering and changing clothes, his warm arms hugging me from behind while I check out what’s going on at the festival today through my device.

” Can’t we just go around together? ”

I turned my head and gave him a short kiss on the lips.

” Me too… I want to, but today is the first day. It would be better if we went together. ”

” Hmm, that’s right. Oh, by the way, didn’t your brother ask you to meet up sometime? ”

” Huh? Your brother? ”

” Brother…? Oh, yeah. I should have told you yesterday. You pounced on me right after we ate yesterday, right? That’s why I forgot to tell you. ”

” What did I say I covered… Hey, wait a minute, where are you touching… ”

” You squeezed me so hard yesterday that my stomach is now so bloated? ”

” Ugh… So, why do you want to meet? ”

” Well? He just asked me to meet him once. I think he probably has something he wants to talk about with his family. ”

” Really? Okay. I guess I’ll go after I meet Ara and Pedro. ”

As I pulled away from his embrace and slowly left the bedroom, the clear sky greeted us.

The sun was shining quite hot, but the cheers and excitement of the people outside were enough to ignore that, telling us how much they had been waiting for the festival to open today.

Luckily, I was wearing brown shorts today with a fairly thin orange off-shoulder t-shirt, so it was comfortable to move around in and I didn’t feel too hot.

I turned around, wearing slightly heeled sandals that tapped the front with a thud, and there was my love, blankly staring at me.

” Why? ”

” No, there’s one more thing I just remembered. ”

” Huh? ”

” Charlotte. Your hair… has gotten really long, hasn’t it? ”

” Hey… What… Are you talking about? My hair is so long… Huh? ”

At his words, I also felt the hair on my waist move.

” Really…? Since when did it get this long? ”

” Maybe… yesterday? Yeah, I’m sure. The day before yesterday, it was definitely shoulder-length. I can tell because I saw it from behind. ”

I felt a slight heat rise to my face at his words.

What he saw behind me… is what it means… after all.

‘Patruna said that my body grew when I was loved by him…? ‘

Up until now, I had grown quite a bit, like getting bigger and stuff, but this time, seeing as only my hair was growing… it seemed like my growth had ended here.

‘Oh, but the chest might have gotten a little bigger…’

It’s not that I’ve gained weight, but right now, the fact that my bra is a little tight must mean… that’s what it means.

” Well, I can’t help it. Because I was loved so much by you. Hehe. ”

I slowly unfolded the hair tie Yeonseo had given me and tied it to the end of my gathered hair.

” What do you think? It’s not weird, is it? ”

” Yeah, it’s pretty. ”

” I’m glad you said that. Let’s go, let’s go…! The kids will be waiting. ”

I linked my arm with his and headed out the door.

I wish we could always have peaceful and happy days like this, but the more I have such thoughts, the more likely it is that those who strike the candles will appear.

Yes, the fun festival soon became a signal that they were starting to move.
