Brother, Am I Cute? [EN]: Chapter 241

Hyung, Am I Cute? (241/500)

The teacher flipped through the sketchbook.

Rudolph was carrying a book under his arm.

“Rudolph was in college. But then he realized something. Deer here, deer there. It’s all the same deer.”

Originally, she was going to say reindeer, but for the children, she simply said deer.

It wasn’t wrong.

Turning the page, Rudolph was resting his chin on his hand, deep in thought.

“Rudolph was worried.”

“I want to be a little different from others. Not just any deer, but me! As Rudolph! But what should I do?”

“After much thought, Rudolph looked up at the ceiling. There was a sparkling light bulb.”

“That’s it!”

Turning the page, there was a picture of a hammer hitting iron.

“If I combine existing things, I can make something special!”

“Rudolph started working hard to make something. After one night, two nights, it was finally completed.”

“From now on, I’ll call this the Rudolph Red Nose.”

Rudolph lifted his sparkling red nose and stuck it to his own nose.

He showed it off to his friends, but they made fun of him.

He didn’t really care.

He always looked in the mirror and said, ‘I’m cool. It’s a great invention.’

“And then came the big job application time. Getting a job at Santa’s company is every deer’s dream. Santa’s company is a large corporation…….”

Teacher Yoo Da-hee was about to speak but noticed the principal’s gaze and pursed her lips.

Then she moved on to the next page.

The interviewer Santa was wearing sunglasses and judging.

“Santa said.”

“Next. Rudolph. Why is your nose like that?”

“Yes! The reason my nose is red is to match Santa’s outfit. I really want to work at this Santa company!”

“Oh ho. So you made an effort to join our company?”

“Yes! That’s right. I’ve been preparing for a year.”

The other deer shouted inwardly, ‘Don’t lie!’

But their cries didn’t reach Santa.

“Then how does that nose help Santa’s company?”

“After making this nose, I was made fun of a lot. But I was sure. They make fun of me a lot now, but this nose will do great things in the world. Deer who live the same life will never understand.”

Rudolph tapped his nose.

Flash!

The dazzling red nose began to shine.

“With this, Santa can deliver even on foggy days. In other words, fog delivery is possible!”

“Oooooh!”

The teacher flipped through the sketchbook.

A delivery company logo appeared.

“To our delivery company… Huh? That’s not it.”

Because there was a picture to advertise on the blog, she wasn’t flustered and flipped to the next page once more.

The principal stared at Teacher Yoo Da-hee with a cold look.

“Ahem. You’re the talent our Santa company needs! Accepted!”

The deer friends who made fun of Rudolph widened their eyes at those words.

Instead of making fun of Rudolph, they started praising him.

Rudolph is really great. Rudolph is cool.

There were many such words.

“You can do it too! Did this Rudolph make something out of nothing? It’s all because he believed in himself!”

Rudolph pointed to his nose.

“Remember that disadvantages can always become advantages!”

That’s how he became an incredibly important person in Santa’s company.

He even became the president.

“The end!”

“Waaaaa~”

Clap clap clap.

“Actually, there’s a story after this. Are you curious?”

“No!”

The children said in unison.

The teacher sadly closed the sketchbook.

She wasn’t going to tell them anyway.

Because an incomprehensible incident would happen after that.

The inheritance war between Santa’s sons and Rudolph, who married Santa’s daughter!

Well, it would be hard for the children to be interested in this part.

That’s what she was thinking, but Siha stared at the teacher.

“Teacher.”

“Yes?”

“Next story?”

“Siha is curious? Okay. The next story is…”

At that moment, the principal’s hand flew to her back.

Slap.

“Ah! Principal!”

“Stop talking nonsense and move on to the next thing.”

“Do you know what I’m going to say?”

“I don’t know, but it’s obvious.”

“That’s too much!”

The principal knew Yoo Da-hee too well.

Siha nodded, watching the two of them.

“Santa. Giddy-up. Understood.”

“Huh? No! That’s not the story!”

Santa riding Rudolph like a horse was already engraved in Siha’s mind.

***

I was currently at Parang Mall.

I had to show off Siha’s pop-up book and prepare for the upcoming Christmas.

“Alisa, Siha’s pop-up book part 2 is out. Are you interested in buying it?”

“Really? I bought one last time, so I have to collect part 2 too.”

“I knew you’d say that. You can order part 2 online now. I entrusted it to KI Publishing.”

“Wow! It’s doing really well.”

“It has to sell well…….”

“There’s no way it won’t sell.”

“I think so too, but you never know the results.”

Alisa quickly tapped her phone.

She proudly showed that she had purchased it and had a satisfied look on her face.

“Mongshil and Biseul. The names are so cute. Your penguin love seems to be the same as ever.”

“Haha…….”

I have nothing to say about that part.

There’s no reason to love penguins.

“Oh, right. Alisa. There’s an important day this month. Does Parang Mall sell it too?”

“What is it?”

“Christmas clothes.”

“Of course. We’re planning to sell limited-time Christmas clothes specially made for Christmas.”

“I knew you’d say that.”

Parang Mall also sold clothes for Halloween.

So, of course, they would prepare for Christmas too.

It’s ironic that adults make money from children’s events.

I remembered when I helped Alisa before, the birth rate decreased as the population increased, but the sales of children’s clothes increased.

Both parents work, so their income increases, and they buy good clothes for their children.

It seems like sales should decrease, but I feel complicated seeing the world where the sales growth rate is increasing.

When I think about it, I’m taking care of this too.

It wasn’t weird.

I’ve never been a parent.

“What kind of clothes are you selling this time?”

“It’s the same as other vendors. Santa clothes, snowman clothes, Rudolph clothes.”

“Oh ho. Is the design a little different?”

“It’s different, but it’s similar.”

Alisa showed me the clothes.

The girl’s Santa outfit looks pretty.

It’s a dress with a cape and hat that lightly rests on the shoulders.

As I stared at it, Alisa said.

“Are you going to dress Siha in this? The girl’s clothes aren’t bad either.”

“Yes?”

I imagined it for a moment.

Hmm. It would be cute, but he’s a boy, so he’d hate it.

If he likes it and shouts, ‘Together with Hyung,’ a terrible situation could arise, so it’s rejected.

“I don’t think that will work.”

“That’s a shame.”

Alisa smacked her lips.

Is it a shame that Siha can’t wear it? Why is she smacking her lips while looking at me? This lady.

“You’re not thinking strange things, are you?”

“Yes? What? What were you thinking, Si-hyuk?”

“It’s nothing. I like Rudolph here.”

“Pfft. It would be cute if Siha wore it.”

“Right? I really wanted to buy him this kind of hat.”

“Then this one?”

“Yes. I’ll buy this one. Oh, and one girl’s Santa outfit and one snowman outfit too.”

“Are you going to dress him in the girl’s clothes?”

“What are you talking about? It’s obviously a gift.”

I’m going to give Seung-joon and Hana Christmas presents with this.

I’m grateful too.

Alisa made an ‘Ah-ha’ sound as if she noticed something.

“You’re going to give it to Hana and Seung-joon, right?”

“How did you know?”

“Do you know any other girls besides Si-hyuk?”

“That’s true.”

I thought she had some kind of power.

She sometimes stabs me in the back.

“Then three sets and one adult outfit as a service.”

“Wait a minute!”

“Yes? What’s wrong?”

“Why an adult outfit?”

“Of course, I have to do it.”

“Why bother giving a more expensive adult outfit as a service?”

“What are you talking about? Kids’ clothes are more expensive these days.”

“So, what are you going to give me?”

“I’ll send it by 택배 [Taekbae – Korean delivery service]. Surprise~”

I was dumbfounded and grabbed her shoulder.

“Stop! Don’t move! Tell me quickly and go.”

“Si-hyuk. Your mouth should be heavy, and your feet should be light. Don’t you know?”

“…….”

“So, I have to move my feet quickly now…….”

“Doesn’t a word without feet travel a thousand miles?”

“Isn’t that expression used at this time? I know everything.”

“But if there’s no mouth instead of feet, will it travel a thousand miles?”

“!!!”

Alisa shouted ‘Murderer!’ and ran away, and I couldn’t find out what the adult outfit was in the end.

***

On the way to pick up Siha.

He said he learned about Rudolph today.

When Santa says giddy-up, a red beam is emitted from Rudolph’s nose.

But did he learn this properly?

It’s different from the Rudolph I know? How did he learn that a ray comes out of Rudolph’s nose?

This is like Iron Rudolph.

“Rudolph. Red became.”

“Yeah. Okay. It became red. That’s amazing.”

“Ah ah. Amazing.”

“Yeah. It’s very amazing. But Siha. Did you hear what Santa does?”

“Siha knows. Santa Company Chairman.”

“Huh? What? Santa Company Chairman?”

“Ah ah. 택배 [Taekbae – Korean delivery service]. 택배 [Taekbae – Korean delivery service].”

“???”

When did Santa become the chairman of a 택배 [Taekbae – Korean delivery service] company? CEO?

This is almost like doing business all over the world, so he must be making a lot of money.

Maybe more than Bill Gates.

“Santa Claus is the one who brings Siha the presents he wants.”

“Why?”

“Huh? He gives presents because he’s so impressed with the good children.”

“Impressed?”

“Um. He gives it because it’s cute.”

“Siha cute?”

“Yeah. Cute.”

“Give present?”

“Is Siha a good boy? Then he gives presents?”

Siha seriously pondered and came up with an answer.

“Siha not good.”

“Huh?”

I never thought I’d hear Siha say he wasn’t good here.

Why does he say he’s not good?

I’ve never seen a child as good as Siha.

“Why? Why isn’t Siha good?”

“Siha lie said.”

“When did you lie? I’ve never seen it.”

“Hyung like. Lie said.”

“What?!”

A huge shock covered me.

I almost stepped on the brake, and the car almost stopped in the middle of the road.

At the same time, my heart would have stopped too.

No way. Was it a lie that Siha likes me?!

“Siha. Is that a lie?”

“Ah ah.”

Siha intertwined his hands and glanced at me.

“Siha Hyung. Very like. Just like not.”

“!!!”

“Very like not. Pepe like bigger.”

“Keu.”

“Siha lie said.”

“Such a lie…….”

This time, I almost stepped on the brakes for a different reason. I was touched.

Siha. There are good lies in the world!

Well, this is a case where there is nothing to express.

What should I say? If Santa doesn’t give Siha a present because of this, I’ll kick Santa’s butt.

Of course, it might be an attack on the elderly, so no one will understand.

“Santa Grandpa present not give.”

“No. He’ll give it.”

“Why? Siha lie said.”

“That’s not a lie. He just didn’t know how to express it well. In that case, you can say you like it as much as the universe.”

From now on, he’ll say he likes me as much as the universe, right?

Hoo hoo hoo. I got him!

“Hyung!”

“Yeah. Siha!”

Siha looked at me with innocent eyes.

“Universe what?”

Yeah. That’s where it starts.

I didn’t teach him that!
