Chapter 576 – Because I’m a Princess! Elemental Princess!
“Oh, Mr. Jiheon. Long time no see?”
My mother in the alley at night was beautiful as always. But beneath that beauty was a tender anger.
“Mr. Jiheon. I smelled gunpowder even before I came here, did it come from my house?”
My mother, who asked me, did not wait for my answer. I realized the current situation just by looking at the sparkler burning in my hand.
“Oh my goodness? It looks like Jiheon was having a fun fireworks display with her and my daughters. How was it? Was it fun?”
“Uh, that’s it…”
“How about we go in and talk? Standing on the street as a landlord on the street is a little hard to see, and maybe my voice might get louder. Isn’t it?”
When she heard that her voice might get louder, the words ‘fucked up’ kept ringing around. My mind went blank, and I shouted as I stepped aside to let my mother in.
“Sohee decorated everything! He was wrong!”
“What, Jiheon, Jiheon!”
The demon king, who was standing in the yard, was shocked as he changed his tone to a normal one.
“Oh my, yes… Yo. This?”
However, Mother’s attention was not on the Demon King, but on his side.
“Uh, Mr. Jiheon?”
Seeing her mother and daughter next to her for the first time, the mother forgot her anger and asked me.
“Mr. Jiheon, who are those people… See?”
“Oh, over there!”
It was Taeyeon who answered, not me. Standing blankly with her sparkler, she came over with her daughter.
“Hello.”
Taeyeon stopped beside me and greeted my mother with her kind face.
“That, Jiheon’s friend, is Jung Taeyeon.”
“Uh, yeah…”
“And this is Jeong Yena. Now, let’s say hello, Yena.”
Taeyeon brought her by the hand and put Yena forward. Yena, who had been smiling brightly until just now, had her face hardened against our nervous atmosphere. But when she saw her mother, she greeted her with a wide smile for some reason.
“Hello! This is Jeong Yena! Nice to meet you, Princess!”
“Yena?!”
“What? Princess?”
Seeing her name coming out of Yena’s mouth, Taeyeon and I were both taken aback. The sisters, who had been watching from afar, burst into laughter, while her mother muttered in her mother tongue.
“Принцесса?” (Princess?)
Then my mother asked me with a face as if she had completely forgotten that she was angry.
“Mr. Jiheon. Why am I a princess?”
“Because you are a princess! Elemental Princess!”
It was Yena who answered, not me. Needless to say, Mother was even more taken aback by that answer.
“Hey, Mom!”
“Mom.”
At this time, the daughters of this house approached and called attention. After dipping the burnt sparkler in a bucket to turn it off, the girls asked their mother about this first.
“Mom! Didn’t you say you were coming late today?”
“Uh, huh?”
“Why are you coming now?”
“Uh, that’s what…”
The aftereffects caused by the Elemental Princess lingered for a long time. Still, her mother somehow came to her senses and answered her question.
“Her friend’s mother passed out, so she came early. What is Elemental Princess… Sound?”
“Yes, something like that.”
“I’ll tell you later. Come in now, Mom.”
“Ah, yes.”
My mother, who came in at a loss, seemed to have completely forgotten about her anger. My mother came inside and pointed to the house and said,
“Shall we go in and talk?”
“Ah yes!”
She replied briskly and reached for her mother’s handbag.
“Mother! Give me the bag!”
“It’s okay, Jiheon.
“No, please give me. You must be having a hard time getting here! Please!”
“Well, it’s okay.”
“Thank you!”
Her mother followed her home, holding her purse in her hands. When she arrived at the house and before entering the front door, her mother stopped her and told us.
“I’m going to change my clothes for a while, so you guys are all playing.”
“Oh no!”
“No. It’s okay, even if you play. So what about Jiheon? Could you give me that bag?”
“I will bring it to the bedroom.”
“Are you okay. Please give me Come on.”
“Yes yes. Here you are, Mother.”
When I returned the bag, my mother smiled and went inside. And when the front door closed, we all looked at the demon king.
“My mother said she’d be late!”
“I should have just done it in the clearing!”
“Hey! I met you for the first time, what is this! Embarrassing!”
“Ahaha! Embarrassing!”
Only Yena could not understand the situation and smiled brightly.
“It can’t be helped!”
At this time, her demon king shouted unfairly, and our attention turned to her again.
“Jim thought my mother was coming late! She wouldn’t even invite her if she knew she’d be here early!”
Honestly, he was right. Although he was a demon king who usually acted like a child, he didn’t really act like a child. In particular, if she was going to meet Taeyeon with her mother, she would introduce her in a more formal setting.
“Sohee.”
“Oh, sir! It’s a surprise!”
At this time, I heard a dull voice from behind me. After the appearance of her mother, she who had completely killed her presence asked the most important thing.
“Has Mother’s anger gone?”
“I don’t know.”
“I don’t know either. It seems to have loosened up a bit after looking at it for a while…”
“Oh right.”
When Jena was mentioned, I asked the women about the word.
“What is an elemental princess?”
My girlfriends, excluding Taeyeon, answered one after another.
“Umm, the other day, there was a treasure hunt in the closed school, right?”
“The characters were a bit lacking, so I did a little with my mom’s picture.”
“I didn’t use it for commercial purposes or publicity, so that’s fine.”
“Are you going to be okay, right?!”
Widely!
“Hey dude!”
Suddenly, Taeyeon hit me in the back of the head. She shouted, glancing at Jena.
“You keep screaming! In front of the child!”
As he screamed more…
Of course, she didn’t say this out of her mouth. I was scared of Taeyeon, and it was because of Yena, whose face was gradually hardening.
“Uh, then!”
She laughed right off her slightly dissatisfied expression and bent over her body. She said that kindly, keeping her eye level with Jena.
“Yena. Shall we start the fireworks again?”
“Is that okay?”
“Then! Why not! Ruler! Where did the Jena fireworks go? Huh? Where did you go?”
“… Hey.”
Yena smiled softly and pointed to her small box. It was a box with firecrackers that could be played with in a residential yard.
“Okay. Then, shall we have fun with fireworks?”
“Yes!”
“Ruler! Let’s go! Will you go first, or will Jena go first?”
“I want to go first!”
“Okay, come on! Depart!”
“Depart! Hehe!”
At my words, Yena smiled broadly as she approached the box. I covered her waist and followed Jena, and her girlfriends looked at me curiously.
“Calm. Be careful in the future.”
“Should I just grab it and throw it away? I think that would be better.”
“That wouldn’t be bad either.”
“Yes that’s right.”
What is it, they are.
Anyway, as I left and they came, the fireworks started again. After drawing and playing in the air with a lit sparkler, my mother opened the front door and reappeared.
“Uh, mother.”
“Yes, Mr. Jiheon.”
She called me with a grin and her mother told me to wait a minute.
“Wait. I’ll say hello.”
Then, I approached Taeyeon, whom I saw for the first time today, and said hello.
“Hello. So-hee and Se-hee are the mothers.”
“Ah yes! Hello! He is a friend of your daughters.”
“Is that right, Taeyeon? Oh, my name is Lyudmila Kim. Maybe, old… ?”
“Hey, thirty-three, that’s it.”
“Oh my goodness. Is it so? Am I your sister? Thirty-seven, so there’s a four-year age difference.”
“Yes? Three, thirty-seven, two?”
“A bit small for a mother, right? I gave birth to two when I was young. And since we’re only a few years apart, just call me unnie.”
“Yes, what, you?”
“Nice to hear. Oh right. I’ll give you this.”
Her mother, who laughed as if satisfied with her words of being her older sister, pulled out her business card from her pocket. Taeyeon also took out her wallet and exchanged business cards with her mother.
“I am getting paid by writing.”
“I live on Narat rice.”
“Oh my God, brother. Are you a cop?”
“It’s nothing, sister. It’s just, an 8th grade civil servant.”
Mother and Taeyeon didn’t have a good start, but they seemed to get better after that. I was relieved to see the two of them calling out to me as my older sister and younger brother, so I was able to look away.
“Red sister! This, this is pretty, isn’t it? Yes Pretty!”
“Yes that’s right. Jiheon will also like it.”
“Really? Hehe! Jiheon man! Uncle!”
At this time, Yena smiled brightly and ran towards me. In both hands of such a child, there was a heart-shaped sparkler, not an ordinary stick.
“Mister! Mister! This is pretty!”
Yena, who came right in front of me, showed off a heart-shaped sparkler.
“Mister! This is pretty! Yes!”
You’re just urging me to say that you’re pretty.
Even thinking like this, positive words were already coming out of my mouth.
“Then! Aren’t they so pretty?”
“Really?”
“Is that so? Uh?”
While pretending to be embarrassed, he bent her back and met Jena’s eyes.
“Looking at it like this, it seems a little less pretty, doesn’t it?”
“Yes? Why?”
Immediately after my words, Yena put on a worried expression. I looked at it and said something that made the child laugh.
“Looking at it this way, Yenna is much prettier than fireworks, right?”
“Ahahaha! Haha! Mister! Haha!”
When she said it while making a fuss, Yena immediately laughed out loud. Seeing that, I raised my eyebrows as well.
“…”
“…”
But my mother and Taeyeon saw me differently.
“Maybe, Taeyeon.”
Mother, who spoke cautiously, asked Taeyeon something absurd.
“That child, Mr. Jiheon’s… ?”
“Mother?!”
“Oh no! No! No, sister!”
