Chapter 1424 – Combination Is Not Just for Mom and Dad!
I must have never been caught approaching. I did my best to kill any presence, and as I had learned in the military, I laid down on my stomach and crawled across the living room floor, struggling with my arms and legs.
Let’s go!
“… !”
I focused my entire body on the stroller in front of me. We arrived while holding our breath, and as soon as we got up quickly, we shouted in a moderate voice so as not to startle Jihoo.
“Jihoo! Who is your dad? Huh?”
However, the one in the cradle was not Jihoo, who was ready to go out. My cats, Junie and Genie, were curled up in a ball and looking at me in their sleep.
“Jiheon?”
“Oppa?”
At this time, the voices of Mawang and Sehee were heard. When I turned my head and looked at the living room sofa, the two of them were sitting side by side with Ji-hoo behind them.
“No, why is Jihoo there? “You were in the stroller earlier?”
My face grew hot at the thought of being caught doing something shameful. I tried to ignore this fact as much as I could and got up. The Demon King and Sehee laughed when they saw me like this.
“Do you know that you just looked like a cockroach?”
“Cockroach?! Hey! Don’t you know about crawling forward?!”
“Why? It really looked like a cockroach. “Look at this creepy thing.”
“Oh! Why are you trying to take off your clothes!”
Suddenly Sehee tried to take off her jacket. The hem of her top was lifted, exposing a bit of her smooth stomach, and she answered with a mischievous smile.
“I get goosebumps in some unusual places. Right here.”
He let go of the hem of her top and pointed at her bulging breasts. The place I gently pressed with my slender index finger was a light brown object, similar in color to milk chocolate.
“Oh, kinda!”
“All right. “If you really want to see it, I’ll show it to you.”
“When do you miss me?!”
“Hmm! Hmm! “I miss my luggage!”
“You stay quiet!”
Even the Demon King raised her hand like a student taking a class and played with her. I took his hand and looked down at Jihoo, who was lying on the sofa with a thin blanket.
“… !”
Gray hair that resembles the devil’s, a small, round face and features that resemble me, and short, plump limbs. I couldn’t raise my voice anymore when I saw my son, Jihu.
“Our Jihoo. When were you here? Without even telling your dad? Didn’t you miss your dad?”
Instead, I was able to raise the corners of my mouth as much as I wanted. I approached Jihoo, who was kneeling on the living room floor and looking up with bright eyes. Our smart Ji-hoo did not avert his eyes until I, his father, showed my face.
“Okay? Did you miss me that much? Did our Jihoo miss his dad so much? Oh my, I’m singing that I missed my dad.”
“Sehee. “Can’t Jim just hear the song Jihoo sings?”
“I didn’t hear it either. “In the first place, what can a child who can’t even say mom and dad sing?”
Just like the conversation between the Demon King and Se-hee, Ji-hoo was a baby who couldn’t even say simple words yet. But as Jihoo’s father, I could tell. How much our Jihoo wanted to see me.
“Ruler. Shake hands with dad.”
Of course, there was no way Jihoo would shake my hand. Instead, he overlapped his index and ring fingers and inserted them into Jihu’s closed fist. I could feel her soft, warm body temperature through her fingertips.
Hehe. Our Jihoo.”
At first I could only fit one index finger, but now I could easily hold two. It’s only been two months, but it was heartbreaking to see Ji-hoo grow up so much.
“Hmm.”
While the father and son were spending time together, the Demon King let out a long snort. Then he asked Sehee, who came out with him and was looking down at Jihoo.
“Sehee. “Did you know Jiheon would be like this?”
“I thought you would like the baby, but I didn’t know it would be like this.”
“Hmm. “Jim didn’t know Jiheon could be such a fool.”
I never thought I would like babies this much. Maybe it was because it wasn’t just a baby, but the child of the Demon King and me. Only now did I understand that a child is the fruit of love.
“Jiheon. “Let’s go now.”
I wanted to keep watching Jihoo, who was so adorable even when he blinked, but the Demon King put his hand on the top of my head and signaled the end. I tried to hold back my regret and took out the index and middle fingers that Jihoo had given me.
Today was Jihoo’s first time going out for a walk instead of going to the hospital. So, I had put him in a stroller as a test earlier, but it seemed like the devil had already decided on a way to take him out.
“Haha! Jiheon!”
The Demon King got up from the sofa and picked up the pink baby carrier. He wrapped the part that looked like a belly band around his stomach, dangled the part that would support the baby’s back, and made random noises.
“Jiheon! “Please do this for me!”
“What?”
“Ruler! Look at Jim and follow suit! Hmm!”
The Demon King, who had an excited expression on his face, hurried over to the living room table and sat down. Then, he placed his arms on his back, put his hands together, brought them to his mouth, and spoke in a serious voice.
“Ride for Mom. Jihoo.”
“Huh?”
“You can do it like this!”
Even though he looked like he had lost all smiles, he smiled brightly again. I wasn’t sure what I was being asked to do, but for now, I did as I was told and sat down at the living room table and rested my hands on both of his elbows. He made fists with both hands and imitated the Demon King.
“Ride for Mom. Jihoo.”
“Hmm…”
“Why? “Not so good?”
“Not really. I don’t like that atmosphere. I guess it’s because I don’t have sunglasses.”
“Okay? Should I try wearing sunglasses?”
“No. Even if you wear it, you won’t enjoy the taste. “It’s also a spoiler.”
It seemed like the Demon King had asked me to imitate a scene from his favorite animation. She frowned as if she was disappointed, but smiled brightly as soon as she saw Jihoo. As if I had a good idea.
“Haha! Jihoo! Come here! Unity is not just for mom and dad!”
“Oh, kinda!”
Haha! Ruler! Bout! Che!”
I picked up Jihoo, who was lying on the sofa and struggling with his short arms and legs. I held him so that my face was buried in his chest, which was more swollen than before, and then I lifted the cloth attached to the belly band and wrapped it around Jihoo’s small back.
“Umm…”
Her shoulder straps had to be worn like a bag to keep the backrest from slipping off. The Demon King let out a groan of embarrassment, as if the process was awkward. I stood in front of her and helped her, who had been sitting at the table in her living room.
“Ruler. Is it okay to do this?”
“Oh! Thank you! Tsundere Jiheon!”
“What do you say?”
“Ugh! Isn’t this Jiheon’s charm? Isn’t it! Sehee!”
“Stop saying strange things.”
I was just helping him tie the shoulder straps, but the unfamiliar sound came back. And that too right in front of your nose. I moved my hands while blushing slightly less than when I was caught crawling earlier.
“Hmm! That’s it! Coalescence! Wan! “Ryo!”
Mawang, who held Jihoo in front of her in a baby carrier, looked more like a mother than usual. In particular, the green sweatpants full of life seemed to express the appearance of being exhausted from raising children and not having the energy to decorate.
Haha! Jiheon! How! How pretty! “Isn’t it beautiful?”
Contrary to the outfit, with Jihu’s legs swinging between the baby carriers, the bright smile on her face did not look like a mother, but like an older sister who has a younger brother who is older than I.
“Huh. It’s so pretty.”
Of course, I didn’t care which way the Demon King looked. Even though it wasn’t necessary, I showed myself what I was thinking.
“Side”
“Hmm?!”
The Demon King suddenly received a kiss on the forehead and his blue eyes widened. I raised my hand to cover my forehead, where my lip marks were faintly engraved, and smiled shyly with a face that was starting to turn red.
“Haha, isn’t Geumtaeyang’s talent going somewhere?”
“What am I? It’s because you’re so pretty.”
“Mmm! You must be! “You must have seduced other women besides Jim!”
“How do you know that?”
“Except for your first love.”
“?!”
A chill ran down my spine as I brought up the story of my first love. Still, I was able to take a breath because the person who brought up the story lightly laughed it off.
Haha! It’s noisy! “Come here!”
The Demon King approached with his arms wide open, holding Ji-hoo in a baby carrier in front of him. So he hugged me and whispered how he felt.
“Hmm. If I had known that having a child would be this happy, I would have had it sooner. Isn’t that right?”
“I know. I regret it so much. The same goes for marriage.”
“Jiheon. What does that mean?”
“Ahhhhh! Wow, I regret not having it sooner! I should have gotten married sooner, had more kids, and gone full-time! That’s what I meant, so stop pinching your sides! “I feel like my flesh is falling off!”
It seemed okay to mention his first love, but it was not okay to say things like regretting getting married. The Demon King, whose voice quickly cooled, let go of his side only after hearing my explanation.
“No, I already know how I feel… !”
I barely escaped the Demon King’s grasp and stroked his throbbing side. Meanwhile, Sehee, who had been silently watching us until now, suddenly nodded.
“Is it so. “I have decided now.”
“Uh? “What?”
“Look at the way your brother treats you and Jihoo. “I’ve made up my mind now.”
“So what?”
If you think about it, it was a little strange. Sehee, who always got nauseous when she saw the Demon King and I are messing around, stayed quiet until now. She declared while looking at the Demon King and me seriously, not playfully.
“I want to get pregnant too.”
