Chapter 1371 – Children Grow Up in Just a Moment
Taeyeon’s motherly love did not discriminate between her daughter and son. Taeyeon, who skillfully held Jihoo and comforted him by shaking her body, smiled at us.
“Hey. Looking at you guys, it looks like you’ve never hugged a child. Is that right?”
“No! “I tried it yesterday!”
“Not that one. Not when giving birth. Now. “Have you hugged me?”
“No.”
“Okay. I thought so. I knew it would happen. After becoming a mom and dad. These.”
Although she spoke as if she was pathetic, she somehow seemed happy. Taeyeon, who was shaking her head as she spoke, approached me, who was standing next to her.
“Hey. Would you like to lift the baby?”
“Uh! “I want to listen!”
“Do you want to rummage? Aren’t you quiet? “I could barely console him.”
“Oh, uh. “I want to try it.”
“Okay. Wait for a sec. Hey, come out. No, get out of the way.”
This time, I approached the bed where the Demon King was sitting. When the Demon King moved slightly to the side to make room for her, she carefully placed the baby there. Then he taught us, who had just become mothers and fathers, how to hold a baby.
“Babies are so weak that they can’t hold their heads up. If you just lift it, you might break your neck, so you have to support it with your hand. Like this, supporting my neck with my middle finger.”
Taeyeon put her hand around the back of her baby’s neck and gently squeezed it. With her other hand, she lifted her buttocks and lifted Jihoo up again.
“Now, like this. “Is it easy?”
“Uncle Bob. The progress is too fast.”
“Who is rice? Do you want to search?”
She lightly glared at the demon king and carefully placed the baby back on the bed. Taeyeon said it was my turn and moved to her side.
“Hey. Now you try it.”
“Me?”
“Okay. You. You said you heard it earlier? Try it now.”
The only time I saw her holding a baby was twice. She tried to extend her hand to Ji-hoo, who was lying wrapped in swaddles, but withdrew it and shook her head.
“I can’t do it. “Show me one more time.”
“Hey. Aren’t you his dad? “What if a father can’t even hug his son?”
“That’s right, Jiheon. Just knowing how to hold her wife is not the end.”
She joined in the nagging, saying she wouldn’t do it. Taeyeon smiled and pointed at the devil.
“Hey. Baby’s mom. You won’t do it?”
“If Jiheon does it, Jim will do it too.”
“Uh! Uh! Me too! Mom! “I want to do it too!”
Yena, who had been looking at Jihoo with sparkling eyes, raised her small hand. She then grabbed the hem of her inner jacket and pulled it violently and asked.
“Mister! Mister! “Can’t I hug Jihoo too?”
“Are you okay, ah?”
She looked not at Mawang, Jihoo’s mom, but at Taeyeon, her senior mom. While not only me, but also the Demon King and Yena were looking at each other, Taeyeon nodded as if it was no big deal.
“Uh. Are you okay? Your baby. “Is this my child?”
“Taeyeon?!”
“Taeyeon?!”
I was astonished by her sincerity when she casually said that it was not her child. As she gradually became more and more disappointed, Taeyeon smiled lightly and waved her hand.
“No. Hey. It’s a joke. Are you okay? In the first place, newborn babies are not very heavy, so even children can lift them. Daughter, you can lift it. It’s okay.”
Hehe! Wow!”
Yena was always cute when she clenched her small fists and looked happy. I patted her head lightly and went back to the main topic.
“How can I lift it?”
“Do you want to lag behind?”
“I’m just asking again, why are you doing this?!”
Taeyeon glared at me and even raised her fist. Of course, she didn’t hit the kids in front of them, but she smiled and explained with her gestures how to hug them.
“Wrap your middle finger around the back of her neck. Don’t worry about her back because the baby is small enough to hold in her palm. Her other hand supported her buttocks and lifted her up. Do you understand now?”
“… Yes.”
“You didn’t understand, right?”
Even though she heard the explanation again, she still didn’t know. But she didn’t know, so she couldn’t raise her child without holding him even once.
“Is this okay?”
Taeyeon bent her body towards Jihoo while observing her. She put her hand on the back of her neck and gently squeezed it, remembering what she had seen and heard earlier.
“Yes. Support her butt.”
“Uh, uh.”
I put my hand under her butt and lifted it gently. After feeling a much lighter weight in her hands than I expected, her son, who was sleeping soundly, got closer.
“Ohh, ohh, ohhhhh… !”
I was filled with the same emotions as when I first saw Jihoo. Everyone’s laughter was heard as they hugged each other with wide eyes and admiration.
“Fuha?! Jiheon! “You were a gorilla!”
“What are you doing? “What are you doing holding the baby?”
Hee! Mister! It just seemed a little lacking! Hehe!”
“Hey?! No, it’s Yena?!”
Even after seeing a scene full of paternal love, it seems like a gorilla is not enough. Although it was unfair and absurd, the emotion that filled my heart did not disappear.
Haha! Hmm! Jiheon! Jiheon!”
At this time, the devil held out both hands to me. I knew what it meant without having to look at the sparkling blue eyes.
“Uh, uh. Now.”
Haha! Jihoo! Come back to your mother!”
After carefully handing her Jihoo, the Demon King held her in his arms and looked down at her with a face full of love. After silently looking at her swollen son with his eyes tightly closed, she raised her head and spoke to Taeyeon.
“Taeyeon! Have a baby! “Give birth twice!”
“You already gave birth once? Can’t you see it?”
Taeyeon lightly clenched her fist and tapped Yena’s shoulder with that hand. Yena looked up at her mother and asked her question.
“Mom. “Was I that small when I was young?”
“Uh? Huh. It was like that. “How pretty my daughter was back then.”
“Hehe, really? “So, are you still pretty?”
“Of course! “Mom, my daughter is the prettiest in the world!”
“Our Ji-hoo is no slouch either!”
The devil intervened between the mother and daughter who seemed to be getting along well. He spoke confidently while shaking Jihu in his arms.
“Look at this! How cute and lovely! “Who do you resemble so much that you are so adorable?”
I don’t know if I’m proud of my son or my own face.
Anyway, after being held in Yena’s older sister’s arms for a while, Jihoo went back into the cradle. We gathered on the bed and chatted without Ji-hoo waking up, and soon a welcome guest arrived.
Grumbling
“Oh? Is it better than you thought? “If we have a baby later, will we be hospitalized here too?”
“Yes, Sehee. I agree. “The hospital room is very clean.”
The people who came this time, like the devil, were my wives, Sehee and Minah. I was a little taken aback when I saw the girls coming in while admiring the hospital’s special room.
“Uh? What? “Didn’t you go to work today?”
Taeyeon was on holiday today, and Yena was on vacation, so she was able to visit on weekdays as well. But Sehee and Minah should have been at work by now.
“So I paid half a meal and came.”
“I also paid half a meal.”
The two of them answered my puzzled question casually and headed straight to the cradle. When I saw Ji-hoo sleeping soundly in the small cradle, I spoke with a happy expression.
“Oh my. Look at you sleeping. “He’s just my sister’s son.”
“No. His clear facial features resemble Jiheon.”
“Ah, I see. “I see you have no hair.”
“Hey?!”
“Yes, I am. “I look very much like Jiheon.”
“Why do you agree?!”
I was worried that someone might think they were my girls, so I started making jokes with them as soon as I saw them. But that was only for a moment. I immediately looked at the baby with sparkling eyes as pretty as jewels.
“Okay. Watch it to your heart’s content.”
Seeing Sehee and Minah like that, Taeyeon was proud as if she were her own child. She really spoke like a senior mother while sitting on the bed with her child.
“Children grow up in a moment. See it when you can. Even if I wanted to see it later, I couldn’t see it, huh? What is it? Why are you looking at it?”
Sehee raised her head and looked at Taeyeon, who spoke like her senior mother. As soon as I asked her why, she revealed her reason.
“I’m trying to keep it in my mind as much as possible. Even my aunt grows old in a moment.”
“That’s real!”
This was the reason why she was so impatient because she usually couldn’t catch Taeyeon.
“Oh, I can’t even hit that thing.”
Taeyeon, who was upset, just started shaking on the bed she was sitting on and didn’t get up. She just glared at Se-hee and continued talking with the demon king.
“So, hey. Are you going to go to a culinary center? You? Why? Why?”
A postpartum care center was a place where women who gave birth received postpartum care and recuperation. She gave birth less than an hour ago, so it wasn’t a place suitable for a demon wandering around the hospital.
“Sweet! Taeyeon! “She thought you, her senior, would know!”
Nevertheless, there was a reason why the devil wanted to enter a postpartum care center. One thing she said was that she had already made a reservation and could not cancel it, and the other thing was the state of the devil’s body.
“Do you think this is normal? This is it!”
The Demon King, who was speaking with an exaggerated frown, stroked his stomach through his dress-like patient gown. As a result, the outline of the belly was revealed, which was not much different from before giving birth.
“Are you saying that the massage given in the kitchen is that effective? After receiving that, I plan to quickly return to the body I had when I was in Leeds!”
It seemed like a shock to see her body, which used to have slightly prominent muscles, change when she became pregnant. The devil, who had grown fatter than before he got married, was so sensitive to his body that he hated, or even frowned upon, my touching his side.
Hum!
I was about to tell the Demon King that you were always in your Leeds days. My smartphone, which had been left on the caregiver’s sofa, briefly vibrated as if a text message had arrived. I walked over to the sofa and looked to see who had contacted me.
“… Uh, over there. “Guys.”
The text message that arrived contained news that another customer was coming.
“I heard that my mother-in-law, father-in-law, and my parents are coming now.”
Until the Demon King was discharged from the hospital, there was never a moment when this hospital room became quiet.
