Chapter 231 – Extraversion. Kim Winter’s Birthday (11)
After 30 minutes of relaxing in a warm bathtub, steam exudes from the body and rushes out into the cool living room.
Both kyaaaaa fuss, they both run into the room;
After lying down with my nose on the sheet for a while, I realized that I had removed the towel I had laid out for sex earlier, so it would be a headache to get wet, so I sighed and looked up.
“Wake up. The sheets get damp. You need to dry your hair.”
“Brother, dry it first. I’m next…”
I take out the hair dryer from the drawer on the dressing table, plug it in, sit on a chair, and while I’m trying to dry my hair first, Winter slaps me on the back and takes the dryer away.
“What. Do you dry it first?”
“Yap.”
“Ahh!”
As soon as I handed it over, my face radiated warm air, reflexively making me close my eyes, giggling, instructing me to look straight in the mirror with my fingers, and this time, without playing around, I gently dried my hair.
Small and thin fingers tickle my scalp, and the warm wind fills the space between them to take away the moisture.
When my short, short hair does not take long to become crispy, Winter pats me on the shoulder as if it were natural and hands me a dryer.
As soon as I got up from my seat accepting it, Winter sat on the opposite side of the chair and looked at me with his back to the mirror.
Perhaps it was because of my short hair, but my heart was inadvertently pounding in a different atmosphere than usual, so I rubbed my hand lightly on my shiny, semi-curly hair, feeling that I had to put it in, so I brought my cell phone.
I took a picture of Gye-ryeol looking at me strangely with a face that said he was going to dry his hair, showed me the screen of my phone and let me know that it was taken beautifully, and this time I tilted the bathrobe slightly to the side, barely enough to cover my nipples. And take another shot with a similar composition.
“⋯ Oppa, do you really like taking erotic pictures?”
“What are you talking about, a kid who says a V naturally without saying anything?”
“You did it beforehand because you knew you were going to do it anyway. It’s pervert.”
When I saw Gye-ryeol with a pouty expression and puffy cheeks, I suddenly wondered what kind of aegyo he was, but I realized that he meant to take another picture and captured that cute expression on camera as well.
After reviewing the three satisfying photos once again, I unconsciously smile and throw my phone on the bed.
Picking up the dryer that had been placed on the desk for a while, I slowly dried my wet bobbed hair while facing Winter.
“Would you like a scalp massage?”
“It’s okay. I got it from the hair shop earlier.”
“Brush?”
“If you don’t do that, my brother’s dinner tonight will be gone.”
“Still, it’s a relief that it didn’t take long since my hair was short.”
“Oh, yes. Then we should reduce the number of side dishes for dinner.”
Most of the water and electricity bills in our house, which were harsh enough to make me wonder if it was right for two siblings to live, were largely due to his hair.
Even if it’s because of the basic water bill and two baths a day, half of the electricity bill will be taken up even if he can’t dry his hair and use a straightener.
However, now that the length is shortened to shoulder level, even if you dry it and comb it, it will take about 15 minutes at most.
Before that, it took me 30 minutes just to dry my hair.
Besides, when you go into the bathroom, you basically do naughty things, play with water, wash your hair, and wash every nook and cranny here and there, so at least an hour.
There was a big gap between waking up and breakfast time.
I believe that Winter said he would cut his hair because he thought it would be difficult to live as he is now when face-to-face classes are over.
It’s winter, and the school is literally right around the corner, but I have to take the bus for 40 to 50 minutes from here.
Even if you don’t say anything, it means being considerate.
I also fell in love with that part.
“Come to think of it, I am hungry, brother. It’s already time like this.”
“It’s because we took a nap in the middle, we.”
“If I eat it now, I think it would be closer to dinner than lunch…? What to do?”
“Still, since it’s your birthday, you should eat something plausible. Eating out, making meals, or ordering.”
“When I go out, I have to come back and wash again… It’s annoying, so I’m going to order it today. It’s my birthday, so I don’t want to get my hands wet today.”
“I wash the dishes every day, young lady.”
“I clean every day. Toilet too. Bathtub too. This man… Is my brother.”
“I was going to call you uncle. Uh?”
“⋯When I think of my brother’s age, I’m starting to think he’s an old man⋯, ouch! It hurts!”
For the first time in 10 minutes after living together, I was able to blow away all the moisture by diligently brushing off the dry hair of Gye-ryeol, who was still spouting outrageous words at a young man in his 20s.
After expressing her excitement at the power of her bobbed hair, she takes her cell phone that she had thrown on the bed and searches the delivery app, combing her hair gently along Winter’s hair, and asking for opinions on the birthday gift she will eat for lunch and dinner.
“Would you like to eat chicken in moderation? Or pizza?”
“Both of them don’t have a good birthday feeling, so pass. The more expensive one.”
“Anything more expensive than pizza chicken? Would you like to eat sashimi? Or sushi?”
“⋯I’d rather eat something grilled than eat it raw.”
“Baked? Grilled Fish? But fish is an expensive food… Ah.”
He avoided my gaze, slightly reminding me of his cheek, and as soon as I noticed and glared at him, I was able to be sure that my prediction was correct thanks to the look on his face that met his eyes and smiled meaningfully.
⋯Yes, since it’s my birthday, I should eat grilled eels.
To be honest, how much physical strength did you spend all week starting around Christmas?
It was clear that there was a need to eat health food to some extent.
“⋯Roasted red pepper paste, soy sauce, and salt. Pick one of the three.”
“Since there are two of us, shouldn’t we have to order two?”
“Hey, this is 49,000 won per kilo. Dirty expensive.”
“It’s okay, brother. My mom and dad put 100,000 won in each account to eat something delicious for my birthday.”
“No, 50,000 won for my birthday…”
“The cute youngest daughter is more loved than the blunt eldest son. Brother.”
After spending time with me these days, maybe it’s because she shows more and more aegyo, I can’t get rid of the discomfort because I think I’m subtly discriminated against by my mom and her dad ⋯,
There was.
Well, if I had a daughter like Winter, I would leave my son to take care of himself and give my daughter pocket money.
Even a child who was blunt throughout school, but after going to college, his aegyo increased and he became much better to his parents?
I can’t stand this.
It was a bit of a big accident, but I’m sure you’ll open your eyes and pretend you don’t know.
“Anyway, since I want to eat red pepper paste, brother chooses one.”
“I’ll salt one then.”
“Okay, ah. Good there Ah… Brush some more.”
“Don’t talk dirty while brushing.”
“Isn’t it a problem with my older brother who takes this as an erotic thing?”
“No matter what you say, you’re the problem.”
“I volunteered so hard today, so be patient. Really. ⋯Are you thinking of doing something dirty even though the delivery came?”
“Uh, is that okay?”
“Wow, pervert. Crazy, really That is molestation, molestation.”
“Sue me.”
“Not me! To the delivery man!”
He coolly orders an eel worth 100,000 won while chatting with Geum-gyeol, who enjoys brushing with a languid expression.
A bit pricey, but not particularly special.
But thanks to that everyday feeling, it seemed to feel more precious.
Slightly more affectionate than usual,
A little more love than usual,
A mild day that is slightly more stimulating than usual.
I originally planned a date, but I think it would be better to just scrap it.
After all, the end of a date is always here.
This is where the two of you can be comfortable.
The place may change, but the name does not change.
Ordinary life at home,
It’s a treasure obtained with too much difficulty for us siblings.

“I feel like my stomach will burst, haha…”
“I ate more, dude.”
“Isn’t your stomach full?”
“Just like that?”
Seeing Gye-gyeol collapsed on the floor, clutching his stomach and gasping for breath, made me think that there was no need to order a cake.
The eel ordered with expensive money was not tasty enough to be worth the money, but I was still able to eat it without getting bitten.
I don’t know if it’s scientifically real, but if you can get the effect of an aphrodisiac, it’s safe to say it’s a decent consumption.
I, too, sweep my bloated stomach a few times, go into my room, and walk out into the living room with my hands behind my back with the present I prepared for today.
“Oh, is this a birthday present?”
“⋯How did you know?”
“Because my brother went into his room.”
“Why am I entering my room?”
“Oppa oppa, you don’t use the room. Except for class.”
Although I was embarrassed by the question that struck me at the core, it was a matter that had nothing to do with whether I got the right answer or not, so I quietly unpacked and showed the wrapped box.
A gift box small enough to be held with one hand.
Winter, who had been lying on the floor, got up before I could even hand over the present, grabbed the box, untied the ribbon, and immediately checked the contents without any atmosphere.
“Hey, where did your favorite romance go?”
“Looking at my brother’s eyes, it’s a strange gift… Ah.”
As soon as Winter opened the box, there was another box like a matryoshka.
That white cell phone box everyone knows.
I bought it for him when he entered high school, so it’s about time to change it.
After half a year of overusing the camera, I could see the battery complaining of death.
I’ve been using the one I bought at the time, so I changed it to match the meaning of a couple rather than a brother and sister this time.
“What is it, brother? Give me all the fine presents.”
“What’s up, what’s up? When I gave you a present, I always seriously thought about it.”
“⋯So you mean you seriously thought about the gift you gave me when I entered high school?”
“Of course.”
“Is my older brother giving me a cell phone as a gift to seduce my younger brother who is a pre-high school student? Are you a little shocked?”
“Why, so you don’t like it?”
“⋯I didn’t say no.”
Surprisingly, a normal gift came out, and Winter, who was embarrassed, was holding the cell phone box and tearing the seal with his fingernails.
But unfortunately, it seemed that he was only perplexed and did not show any suspicion.
⋯You haven’t done much unboxing, Winter.
Didn’t even notice the plastic wrap was peeled off.
In the end, after opening the seal and opening the box, Gye-ryeo picks up the new cell phone, finds the thin paper underneath it, and changes his expression.
“⋯What is this?”
“What is it? It’s a sticker.”
“⋯Isn’t that a sticker you put on your phone?”
Winter, sitting with my legs together in an M shape, approaches my back,
He puts his palms on his shoulder blades and whispers them in his ears.
“Why put wings on your cell phone? ⋯It should be attached to the wing bone.”
“⋯Hey, brother.”
“You started the tattoo sticker. This is the wall you planted, winter.”
“Ha… ⋯Brother.”
“You’ll be awake at midnight tonight anyway. ⋯While doing this, let’s put on wings.”
“⋯I was disappointed.”
Seeing the wing-shaped tattoo sticker inserted into the cell phone box, contrary to expectations, Kyeol-gyeol stood up with a serious expression.
As it was, he walked gently so as not to make noise between floors, and went into his room and locked the door.
Oh, I thought you’d like it.
What?
⋯ But, isn’t that a particularly angry voice?
When you get caught in a slight stun and can’t move, and try to roll a duckbill while sitting down,
Winter brought a bundle of cloth in his bosom, came to me and put it down,
He begins to criticize me in a creeping voice.
“⋯ This is what it should be, stupid.”
“What is it?”
“⋯Yukata.”
“Yukata?”
“⋯Looking at the cartoon, wearing something like this for the new year… Ah, brother!”
I don’t know what cartoon you’ve been watching.
Seeing Winter give out a flower-patterned yukata whose length only reaches up to her thighs as a birthday present,
I couldn’t help but stand up and hug Winter.
⋯ It’s your birthday, so why are you giving me a present?
Since it’s your clothes, is it a gift you give yourself?
Or is loving you wearing this a birthday present for you?
Well, either way is fine.
Because it’s so damn cute
