Chapter 163 – Favorite Child (3)
“Wow. Is this Jun’s house?”
The child asked Seo-jun.
Seeing him nod at him, the child’s eyes lit up.
“From now on, this is where I will live.”
Her house, of course.
It was much larger than the facility I was briefly indebted to.
Seo-joon introduced her to her family.
“This is the child’s room.”
Kiik-
Open door.
What was visible beyond it was a room decorated to suit a girl’s taste.
“Hey.”
The child with his hands behind his back inspected the room carefully.
She smiled immediately.
“Is this what I said I wanted in the past? You were remembering.”
“Of course.”
“Ehehe. Thank you, Jun.”
“Thank you for what. You must have been more tired than that, so take a good rest today. Meals will be called when the time is right.”
“Huh. Okay.”
So Seo-jun left the room, and the child lay down on the bed.
“… This is a bed.”
Swish- Swish-
A smile was drawn to the texture of the top-notch bed.
‘I knew roughly that Jun was a well-to-do person. I didn’t expect it to be like this.’
I thought I would just live well enough for the middle class.
It turned out that he was the son of a very wealthy man.
“Whoa. I feel good.”
When she lived with her mother, she slept only on the tatami floor.
The facility also slept on a blanket on the floor, so it was the first time I lay down on a bed.
That’s why it felt better.
Her fatigue began to subside, and before she knew it, she roared back and fell asleep.
***
Meanwhile.
Sensing that her child was asleep, Seo-joon opened her door slightly and looked at her.
She was sleeping very hard.
‘There is no such thing as an angel.’
The sleeping figure of the child was the baby angel that had descended into the present world.
Seo-joon closed the door with a hearty smile and headed for the kitchen.
‘I need to feed the child his favorite foods.’
I’ve always wanted to treat my children to homemade dishes.
She wanted to see her happy when she ate the food she made.
While working on the bottom like that, Seo-joon thought.
‘I finally brought the child.’
The time has come for him to put his plan into action.
At first, Seo-joon was thinking of rescuing the child right away.
But he soon changed his mind.
‘Because it’s better to give grace than to just save.’
Of course, there are other reasons too.
To change a child’s life, her mother’s existence was a problem.
If he had said that he would just take the child away, the mother would have liked it, but it must have bothered her in some way.
To be honest, it’s not difficult to cope with the power he has.
However,
‘I can’t let that happen from the beginning.’
So Seo-jun waited for the right time while taking care of the child’s mentality.
Get arrested for theft like in the original story.
Later, as he wished, the mother was arrested and fled without finding her child.
This gave Seo-jun the perfect excuse to bring the child. Oh, of course, the story about his mother doesn’t end there.
Seo-joon released the man and found the mother of the child who had run away.
She was living doing chores just 5 km away from the house where she originally lived with her child, and Seo-jun was struggling with what to do.
It never appeared in the original work, but since he intervened, it is unknown.
It is clear that one day it will become a stumbling block in the child’s path.
So after a short thought, Seo-joon moved to action.
“Do you know what your sin is?”
“Sah, save me! You’re saying I did something wrong!”
“You just leave.”
Seo-jun put the child’s mother in a drum, filled it with cement, and threw it into the sea.
In the middle of the Pacific Ocean, a drum full of people has disappeared into the deep sea.
She will probably meet Sponge who lives in the pineapple house down there and live happily ever after.
Otherwise, it might turn into a meal for the Black Fish Princess.
Seo-joon, who dealt with the intruder like that, brought her child.
Because he’s done all the preparations.
‘It makes you happy. That was the only thought.’
This is the start of Ai Hoshino’s Happiness Project.
When I finished cooking with such thoughts in mind, more than two hours had passed before I knew it.
Seojun woke her child.
So the two sat down at the table.
“Did Jun-kun cook it himself?”
“Huh. I wanted to feed my child my cooking.”
“Hey.”
The child scanned her table, her eyes shining.
“Jun-kun is good at cooking. That’s great!”
Smile
Seojun smiled at the child’s praise and said.
“Now, let’s eat quickly before it gets cold.”
“Huh! Then I’ll eat well~!”
The child grabbed the chopsticks.
However, the appearance was a little strange, probably due to the lack of education.
Well, since I was raised by such a mother, it’s strange to learn properly.
Perhaps she looked over her shoulder at what her mother was doing and clumsily copied it, and that kind of chopsticking was perfected.
‘I have to correct it later.’
Correction is later.
Because the stability of the child is important now.
“Ah, yum.”
The child took a big bite.
That’s how she put the food in her mouth and her movement stopped abruptly.
“What’s the matter?”
“…”
The child was silent for a moment.
After a few seconds, her mouth opened again.
“… Delicious. Try something this delicious for the first time in your life.”
The child was so few that she could count on her hands that she had never eaten a proper meal.
Her mother always filled her meals with cup noodles, bread, or even rice balls or boxed lunches.
So, when she first met her child, her growth was so slow that she looked younger than her peers.
Of course, after she was put in the facility, she did get a little better, but in the end she was just enough food to get by.
For that reason, to the child, her food was only what she ate in order not to die.
All the more because she had never felt pleasure from eating in the first place.
But today, for the first time in her life, Ai Hoshino experienced the feeling of ‘happiness’ through her meal.
“I can eat this. I am so happy to meet Jun-kun again, hehe.”
Tears run down her cheeks as she smiles heartily.
“What? Weird. I’m happy, but I’m in tears. Ahaha…”
“Here.”
“Ehehe, thank you.”
Seojun wiped the child’s tears with a handkerchief.
So the two focused on eating again.
The child was smiling happily throughout the meal, and Seo-joon also used her smile as a side dish to savor the food and plan the future.
‘You really make me happy.’
Seojun’s eyes became serious.
Her situation as a member of the opposite sex and as a human being was pitiful.
She deserved to live happily ever after.
That’s why Seo-joon made a firm commitment once again that he would make her happy at all costs.
***
Ai quickly adapted to life with Seo-joon.
She gradually began to regain the ‘feelings’ of normal children.
However, as of now, Seo-jun is the only person in this world who can feel the emotion of ‘love’.
And it will never change.
Anyway, one day when I was living such a happy life, Seo-jun asked her child.
“Kid. Do you have any plans to become an idol?”
“Idol? I?”
She tilts her head.
Seojun nodded her head and smiled.
“Huh. I think you can do very well.”
“Um.”
A child who is troubled by putting his finger on his cheek.
She replied with a bright smile.
“Huh! If Jun-kun wants it, I’ll try it!”
“Haha, I’m happy, but since it’s about the future, why don’t we think about it more seriously?”
“Um, I’d love to, but I’m an idiot. I don’t know about that.”
“Kid. I want you to prioritize your feelings over mine.”
“I understand if Jun-kun says that. I will seriously think about it.”
“Okay.”
Hehe.”
Seojun stroked her child’s head.
The child drew a smile on him.
And after a few days
“I’ve decided. Like Jun said, I want to become an idol!”
The child who came to Seo-jun declared.
