Chapter 925 – [Eden’s Occupation of the Kindergarten]
There was a lot of fuss, but it was quickly forgotten. This is because as soon as I got off the station, there was a sweet smell that restored my downed mood a little bit.
Eden showed her interest by twitching her nose at the first smell she had ever smelled.
“Dad, what does this smell like? It smells so sweet!!!!”
“Oh, I see that here too.”
“If I smell deli manju on the street, I want to buy one.”
“It’s not like that”
“I like sweets and can only eat 30 deli manju, but I’m still craving it”
“What? Are you allergic to deli manju?”
Anyway, since Eden is interested, I should buy it. Besides, the snacks sold at subway stations have their own taste.
We bought two of them, the largest one. There are about 30 pieces in a box, so it’s almost 60 pieces with 2 pieces, but this member seems to be able to eat enough.
No matter how bad I was, I would eat fifteen, Zion would eat more, and Eden would eat twice as much as me. To be honest, I wouldn’t even send a message to my family with a bag of ten.
I buy a deli manju and sit down to eat it before leaving the station. It’s best to eat it while it’s still hot, so it loses its flavor when it cools down.
“Oh!!!! It’s delicious!!! There’s cream in it!!!!!”
“It tastes better when eaten with milk, my daughter.”
“Yeah, I’ll have to eat milk with it so I don’t get choked up in the middle.”
“Uh!!!!”
After filling our stomachs with something like snacks, we slowly get up from our seats and go out of the station.
When we got off at City Hall Station, the first thing we found was not the square in front of City Hall, but a palace in the style of the Joseon Dynasty.
If it was near here, it would have been Deoksugung Palace… I honestly hadn’t even thought of it. It’s because people don’t visit places like this on purpose unless it’s for school assignments or something like that.
“Wow!!!! I saw Mr. Wang over there!!!!!”
“I like that kind of thing again. Maybe it’s because I look like my mother.”
“Would you like to go take a look?”
“Um…… No, that’s okay. I’m sure I’ll go to an elementary school or something like that later. I can’t let you experience the anticipation of that time now.”
Such a cultural heritage will surely be visited and looked around through a field trip when you enter elementary or middle school later. At least, you will definitely see a place like Gyeongbokgung Palace.
It’s good to go with family, but it’s also good to go around with friends. If Eden says she wants to go with me later, I don’t know, but for now let’s leave it as a memory to be with her friends.
No, exploring a place you know roughly because you’ve been there is different from exploring a place you don’t know at all with friends. I don’t want to ruin that heartbeat.
“Is the plaza on the opposite side of that? Oh, there are a lot of people.”
“Isn’t it Christmas soon? There are a lot of people coming to play.
“It’s nice that it’s crowded though.”
“I honestly don’t like it”
“Since you’re a homebody style……It’s fortunate that Eden doesn’t resemble you in that way.”
“I think that part too.”
On the one hand, I think it is very fortunate that Eden resembles only the good side of us.
Honestly, raising a child wouldn’t have been as easy as it is now if only the worst possible combination came out between the two of us.
Anyway, we arrived at the plaza and watched the people skating in full swing. People skating on a fairly wide ice field look very interesting.
“Let’s borrow some skates. Shion, are you going to ride too?”
“Hmm… First of all, it’s better to ride with Eden, so I’d better borrow mine as well.”
My wife, who doesn’t do anything but exercise on the bed, is trying to exercise voluntarily. It is indeed a great development.
Anyway, I rented Zion, Eden, and my skates from the rental store.
Although Eden is still in kindergarten, it was not too difficult to borrow Eden’s skates because her development is at the level of an elementary school student. At least if you pick the smallest one for kids, one of them fits.
“Um… It hurts a little.”
“Originally, something like this has to be tightened to the point where it hurts a little.
“Is that so?”
“Yeah, that’s it”
Eden puts her skates on and goes up behind the ice in earnest.
A strange slipperiness is felt. The slipperiness of the ice can be felt by using something concentrated in one place, like a skate. Even if you went barefoot on the ice, there was a limit.
“Wow!!!!! Whoaaaaa”
“Eden, is it difficult to balance?”
“Ugh…!!!”
“Then, shall we hold Daddy’s hand and practice for a while?”
“Uh!!!!!”
“It’s good to do your feet like this, my daughter.”
Unlike swimming, this requires more subtle control. That’s why I held Eden’s hands and helped him practice slowly so that he could move forward.
Zion skillfully informs such Eden from the side. Thanks to that, Eden learned how to skate very quickly.
“Oh!!!!! I’m going, I’m going!!!!!”
“Our Eden is burning well now”
“I might hit a wall later, but I think I’ve learned a little bit.”
Like a person who only learned to accelerator but not to brake, Eden learned only to run but not to stop.
Still, Eden was very excited and quickly ran out of the skating rink. And she spins around in no time and rushes this way.
“Wahhahahahahaha!!!! It’s fun!!!! Skating is fun!!!!!”
“Oops, Eden is a meteor!!!!!!”
He caught Eden with his whole body. The shock of Eden running with all her might was great, but she somehow managed to get it.
According to the law of action and reaction, Eden must have felt a considerable shock, but Eden just laughed and was happy.
“It was fun!!!!! I want to do it one more time!!!!!!!”
“Oh, Eden. If you do that, Daddy’s back will be broken.”
“Ahahahahahaha!!!!!”
“Don’t just laugh!!!!!”
Still, it’s fun enough that it’s worth going out. It’s been a while since I’ve been skating and playing, so it’s quite fun.
I was walking with Shion while watching Eden burn, and I reacted slightly to the sound Eden shouted.
“Dad!!! Dad!!!! Do that!!!!! Triple Axel!!!!!”
“No, Eden, where did you learn that?”
“It was on TV!!!!!!”
Well, in figure skating, it’s a sport that I’m interested in thanks to someone who is exceptional. Watching TV, passing by and listening to it at least once wasn’t strange.
You can just ignore it, but thanks to Eden’s words, I couldn’t ignore it. I gained a little momentum and increased my speed, then jumped and made three and a half turns in the air, including landing and turning.
Triple Axel, like the commonly heard name, is a must-have skill for anyone entering this field. At least among the pros, if you can’t do this, you can’t even dream of the Olympics.
Well, even if I’m not a player, I can do something with just a rough sense of movement.
“Wow!!!!!! Dad is so good!!!!!!”
“Ah, that’s about it. When we grow up later, our Eden can do it too.”
“Really~?”
“Yeah, really”
If Eden properly learns this ability, he will be able to dominate all events even if he goes to the Olympics, but figure skating is not something to worry about. If it’s Eden, it’s possible to become a second figure skating queen.
Anyway, leaving Eden to play, Shion and I held hands and walked around the rink slowly.
“It’s been a while, so I feel pretty good.”
“Did you do well to come?”
No matter how old a couple is, if you don’t set the mood like this every once in a while, your relationship will be ruined. Thinking about that, the relationship between me and Shion was very well maintained.
Sometimes they cross each other, but they are still connected. This was a truly harmonious couple.
“Daddy daddy!!!!”
“Why are you so Eden …….. Ahhhhh !!!
Eden was running so fast that others around him seemed slow. It was probably on the ice, so the momentum would be maintained to some extent, so it seemed that it was running so fast that it was difficult to brake on its own.
Unlike before, this time, even if an adult accepted it, it was at a level where it would not be normal.
Nevertheless, I open her arms and catch Eden with her body. No, it would be much better for me to get hurt than for Eden to get hurt!!!!
Thud!!!!
Along with a fairly heavy impact, I also slipped backwards and received a considerable shock. But she giggled, as if Eden wasn’t shocked, and as if she was having fun.
Haha!!!! It was fun!!!!!”
“What would you have done if you had hit the wall?”
“Dad will take it.”
“No, then I have nothing to say.”
A child’s trust in their parents is absolute. Sometimes there are parents who will have less trust than others, but if a child believes in their parents, that trust cannot change even the sky.
Oh my, our Eden is so cute!!!!!
Anyway, it was quite late after skating so much. It’s not too late, but at least it’s well past work time.
“Isn’t it better to eat cup noodles at a nearby convenience store than go in and eat?”
“Wouldn’t you like to eat at home normally?”
“It takes time to go in and eat, and that’s a bit like it. Besides, the taste of ramen eaten after playing to the fullest is exceptional.”
“That can’t be helped”
We bought cup noodles at a nearby convenience store, got hot water, and went outside. Find a suitable seat, sit down, and wait for the cup noodles to cook.
The weather outside is cold, but the cup noodles in front of you are warm thanks to the hot water. Rather, thanks to the cold weather, you can feel the right warmth.
As if Eden wanted to eat quickly, she put her hand on the cup noodles and stomped her feet, feeling the warmth. However, as if rice does not become rice just because it is pressed, we had to wait for a while.
“Are you not done yet?”
“You have to wait a little longer”
“I want to eat quickly!!!”
And after a certain amount of time, the noodles ripened. I stirred it moderately to make sure there were no lumps in the soup.
“It’s done. You can eat now.”
“I will enjoy this food!!!!”
Eden slurps boldly with chopsticks! And started inhaling her ramen.
I wonder if it’s too hot, but the weather is cold, so I can feel the right heat. It is very cute to see hot breath coming out of Eden’s mouth while eating ramen.
“Delicious!!!!”
“After playing in full swing, salt is lacking due to sweating, so ramen is delicious.”
“It’s just like drinking water when you’re thirsty.”
“Right, that’s how it feels.”
Eden emptied a large bowl of cup noodles before he knew it. The noodles didn’t fill my stomach, so I drank the broth, so I could barely see the bottom of the cup ramen container.
But as expected, Eden’s stomach was not full. Eden, who was aiming for my ramen, smiled and gave it to her to eat my ramen too.
“Eat more of Daddy’s”
“Five!!!!!”
Eden came out and ate almost 3 of Shion’s cup noodles, and then he put on a satisfied expression as if his stomach was somewhat full.
Of course, if you want to eat more, you can eat more. Our Eden’s stomach is not enough to be filled with just 3 cups of ramen.
………I often think about it, but I wonder how much Eden will eat when it grows up. I don’t really care about the cost of food, but I felt like my spine would break if Eden cooked for me.
“Our Eden can do a mukbang later”
“You can do it now, not later. At this age, you eat enough to look like an elementary school student, but if others see you, you’ll say you’re happy.”
No, Eden, who is super pretty at first glance, is filming a mukbang? Besides, it’s not just eating, but at the level of a food fighter?
It would be easy to get 1 million subscribers before less than a month. No, it’s not a mukbang, but Eden is a person who only comes to see her appearance.
“Let’s go back soon. There won’t be many people by now.”
“It seems like the day has already ended.”
“It feels short in retrospect. Like military life.”
“Ugh, the head……!!!!”
Ahhh, Shion’s PTSD in the military has recurred!!!! No, how traumatized are you still doing it?
It’s me, she went to the army this time too, so it’s not strange, but Shion is still like that even though it must have been a long time ago. After all, people who have been in the military want to be like that wherever they go.
We go back home On the way, I see that they have decorated a big tree for Christmas.
When I saw the splendid appearance with even the accessories that glowed with electricity attached, I suddenly thought that Christmas was just around the corner.
“I can’t wait to see what Christmas will be like this year”
“I don’t want it to be as loud as last year”
“Are you going to play Santa’s assistant again?”
“I honestly don’t want to”
There were quite a lot of opinions about Santa as well as my role as Santa’s assistant last year.
However, it is not a child’s opinion, but an adult’s opinion, so there is not a very good opinion. No, it’s not that the evaluation is bad, it’s rather good, mainly because of my body and things like that.
Since I am Santa’s assistant, I would give presents, but they say they give them to children, not to adults!!!!
Anyway, it’s better not to see that, so I didn’t look for it separately after that. Besides, I want to skip the role of Santa’s assistant because I have nothing to do this year.
“……Daddy, isn’t Santa?”
“Huh? Does Eden want to see Dad play Santa?”
“Uh!!!!!”
No, to be honest, the role of Santa’s assistant isn’t that difficult……If Eden wants it, he can.
Besides, the gift Eden wanted this Christmas was to meet Mangmung. No matter how it was done, it was clear that it would be a lot of hard work or a lot of work.
It’s going to be such a hard time, but if Eden wants it, he can help. It’s just a matter of struggling for a day.
“This Christmas will be fun”
“……Wait a minute. Maybe even then?”
“You know what do you ask?”
Ahhh, the Xion and Santa cosplay play I did last year!!!!!
But this Christmas is normal, Reds?!
