Chapter 273 – Looks Like Jiheon Wants to Pick a Girl Today
After filling our stomachs with delicious food, we left the restaurant in a happy mood.
Apparently, this was the shop run by my mother’s friend. Se-hee was greeted by the staff even though the demon king was wearing a long padded sweatshirt.
… Even though I was greeted through the back door.
Still, we finished the evening happily, and smiles settled on our faces until the bright night street came out.
When people came out to the street, the demon king, whose cheeks were red from the cold, said to Se-hee.
“Surely! It was delicious this time too!”
“For me, the salmon steak that came out last time was more delicious.”
“What are you talking about! The meat is definitely beef!”
After jokingly shouting at his brother, the demon king turned his head and asked me.
“Do you think so too? When it comes to meat, you say beef?”
“No.”
“What?!”
Perhaps it was because I ate something expensive, but I was arrogant.
“You can only eat one part of a cow at a time, but you can eat all parts of a chicken at once. Therefore, chicken is the most delicious. Right, Sehee?”
“No. I also like beef the most.”
Hey.
Se-hee, caught between the demon king and me, was beaten weakly as a protest. The one who was beaten also raised the corner of her mouth and touched her forearm.
Took
I laughed too at the small shock transmitted through my outerwear.
After enjoying this euphoria for a while, I asked the two of them.
“But where are you going now? Hotel?”
“Ummm, no.”
The Demon King, who shook his head lightly, looked at me and Se-hee and said.
“You guys, enjoy your date like this. Jim has business to do. I’ll go to the hotel for a while.”
“What are you going to do at the hotel?”
“What day is today? It’s Christmas. Shouldn’t the atmosphere of the event be me? I need to prepare too.”
It was a little surprising. If it were the demon king, it seemed like he would take off his clothes right away without caring about the atmosphere at all.
“Sehee. Jiheon seems to want to pick a girl today.”
“Why?!”
“Didn’t you just think of being rude to Jim?”
“No, can you see that?”
“I did. I was just suspicious.”
Shit! Going over to the Judo Newspaper!
On the regretful day, the demon king looked at him with a smile. Then he turned his head to Sehee.
“Then leave the burden. You should go on a date.”
“Are you okay, sister?”
“Couldn’t it be okay? It’s you and Jiheon.”
“No, not that. Are you really okay?”
“… Ah!”
At first, the demon king didn’t seem to know what Sehee was asking. After a few seconds, she nodded her head in agreement.
“Don’t worry about that part. No one dies doing that.”
That part? That?
“I’m still worried, sister. It’s my first time.”
First?
“Strictly speaking, this is not the first time in my life. It’s a very embarrassing story.”
Not the first time?
The more I listened to their stories, the more I couldn’t understand them. Of course, even in the midst of that, the sisters continued a conversation that only they knew.
“And you will too. Try it first and let me know what you think.”
“Well, should I, too?”
“It’s because you’re lonely when you’re carrying loads! Haha!”
The demon king, who smiled cheerfully, tapped Sehee on the shoulder.
“Then let’s go now. I think I need to do a bit of preparation, and I’ll be right back when I’m done.”
“All right.”
“Um, good. Then Jiheondo!”
Dropping her hand from her brother’s shoulder, she walked towards me often. After a few steps, the Demon King came right in front of me and looked up at me with a playful smile and sparkling blue eyes.
“You. Then Jim will be gone. It won’t last that long, so don’t feel lonely.”
“What…”
“If I feel like crying because I miss Jim, I will cry into Sehee’s chest. Even though it’s harder than Jim!”
“Sister!”
“Hey?!”
“You’re kidding, kidding.”
Despite the protests of the two of us, the Demon King did not lower the corner of his mouth that he raised shamelessly. Sometimes this makes me angry, but now just looking at it like this brings a smile.
“Then,”
As she spoke, she reached out for the long padding she was wearing. That’s how she often held her hand with the Demon King and continued her words.
“If you go now, when are you coming?”
“If you’re a good kid, Mommy will come before ten nights.”
“Hey.”
“Ha ha, sorry. You’re just like a baby.”
Having said that, the Demon King raised his hand over my head. Then he stroked my hair as if he were really a child and said.
“Then I will go. I’ll prepare the rice bowl, so look forward to it.”
“You can’t cook.”
“Is there anything you can’t say to your girlfriend? Then go now.”
As if he was really going to go now, the demon king let go of my hand and lowered the hand he was stroking. After that, he met Sehee’s eyes once more and walked into a street full of people.
Sehee and I stood side by side, watching her until she disappeared into her crowd.
“Brother.”
I couldn’t see the demon king completely, and Se-hee called me.
“I think I’ve gotten a little weird.”
“Uh?”
“You know what?”
She looked up at me, holding her hand that she had been holding with the Demon King just a moment ago.
“When I talked with my sister and brother, I was a little jealous.”
It was Se-hee who usually said that her older sister was better than me. Hearing from her, her subtle sense of superiority over her demon lord,
“To my brother, of course.”
“Oh little.”
“Why, are you disappointed?”
She had a mischievous face, just like her own sister. Seeing this, Se-hee was the younger brother of the Demon King.
Thinking about this, I squeezed her small hand that had come into my palm.
“Definitely not disappointed. I want you to be first.”
“Even for my brother, my sister comes first before me.”
“It doesn’t.”
“But looking at things like that, we seem to get along well. Because we like each other♥”
“What…”
She snorted and looked down at Sehee. Of course, the laughter I had just had did not contain any ridicule or negative emotions. It was a snort that contained a heart of agreement and a slightly absurd mind.
After looking at each other for a while, we started walking down the street slowly. We didn’t say anything, but the place we were heading to was a street with illuminations that we couldn’t go to because of the tight time.
Looking at the increasingly brighter streets and more people, I asked Se-hee.
“By the way, what did Sohee do?”
“I can’t tell you. Still, my brother will like it, so look forward to it.”
Why do I get more afraid the more I hear the word “Expectation”?
Still, in order to overcome this fear, Se-hee and I walked to a brighter place. The first thing that greeted us was a tunnel decorated with yellow lights.
“Wow… !”
Se-hee’s eyes sparkled in admiration at the sight that looked like a passage of light.
“Brother, isn’t that pretty?”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
“You are so pretty, really! Go quickly.”
Se-hee, who was excited like a child, took the lead without letting go of my hand.
In front of the tunnel we arrived at, it was already full of couples. Women who pose for a beautiful picture and boyfriends who take pictures of such girlfriends.
“Brother! Please take a picture!”
“Ah, yes.”
“Here you go!”
And I was included among those guys.
I opened the camera app on the phone Se-hee gave me, and the owner of the phone appeared on the screen.
“Wait, wait!”
Shouting urgently, she walked into a tunnel full of lights. She placed the light shining brightly in it in her hand and looked at her light bulb, she said.
“Brother, take a picture like this. Like this.”
“Yeah, wait.”
I picked up my phone and looked at Sehee. On the screen, she looked even more beautiful than usual. Holding a light bulb in her hand in the bright lights made me feel like a fairy of light.
After staring at Se-hee for a while, she came to her senses and shouted.
“Then I’ll take it! One, two, three!”
Click!
The shutter sounded, and the beautiful image of Se-hee from earlier remained semi-permanently.
“How are you, brother? Did it come out well?”
“Huh. It came out so pretty.”
“Then show me somewhere.”
Se-hee, who had relaxed her pose, approached me with a happy face. But that smile quickly diminished when I saw the picture I took.
“What is this, brother?”
“Uh?”
“Your head came out too big. Look.”
No matter how I looked at it, it didn’t look like I was taking it wrong. The she in her picture and the she in front of my eyes now were just as beautiful.
“I don’t know.”
“Brother, I am disappointed.”
“Why?”
“Did oppa not want to take pictures of me looking pretty?”
“No, not like that. Aren’t you pretty now?”
“Of course she is pretty.”
“Then just this.”
“It could have come out prettier, but it’s regrettable that it’s less prettily filmed. Take it again.”
“For me, this is enough.”
“I am still hungry. Please do it quickly.”
Eat more dinner if you’re hungry.
While grumbling a little, I took back the smartphone Sehee gave me. Then she pointed to the screen and told me what to do.
“Brother. Don’t use the default camera, take pictures here with Snow.”
“What, Snow? Eye?”
“There is a camera app here. A blue lightning pattern on a white background.”
“Ah, this is it.”
“Take a picture with that, with that.”
“Okay. Go and stand.”
“Wait.”
After saying that, Se-hee went back to the spot and posed. Looking at her again, I admired her beauty, and then I took a picture of her again.
Click!
“It’s okay. Would you like to see it?”
“No.”
However, Sehee did not move and said the same thing on the spot.
“Please take several pictures. Seeing my brother’s skills, I’m a little anxious with just one.”
“Uh?”
“Quickly. People wait behind you.”
Back?
At those words, I looked back without realizing it. There, I saw couples lined up as if it were the entrance to a restaurant. Apparently, it seemed like he was trying to follow Se-hee and take a picture.
“Ah Okay. Then take a picture?”
“Yes, take a picture quickly.”
In the eyes of the couples behind me, I tried my best to take pictures. However, among the dozens of pictures taken at that time, there was not one that Sehee liked.
“Brother, I really can’t take pictures.”
“Sorry…”
“No, it’s okay. Because the more pictures you take, the better. Shall we take a picture over there now?”
“Uh?”
“Why. No, I do not want?”
“Oh no! I love it so much! Let’s go quickly, quickly!”
