Brother, Am I Cute? [EN]: Chapter 37

Siha was meeting someone after a long time.

It was Alisa, a fashion design student with golden dyed hair.

“Hi~ Siha~”

“Ah, Alisa.”

“Still so cute?”

Alisa touched Siha’s soft cheek.

Soft, soft.

Alisa’s face relaxed at the pleasant softness.

“Hehe~”

“Ah.”

Then, Seungjun smacked Alisa’s hand away.

“Don’t touch Siha!”

“What? Why? Why can’t I touch him?”

Seungjun grabbed Siha’s hand and moved it behind his back.

“Witch. Witch.”

Hana came next to Seungjun and stuck close.

“Witch. Witch.”

“Who are you calling a witch?”

Alisa was dumbfounded.

But Seungjun and Hana didn’t back down from their opinion.

The reason was that the witch in the movie their mom showed them recently looked exactly like Alisa.

It was more like a musical than a movie, but they remembered the witch from that time.

“If it’s yellow and pretty, it’s a witch!”

“That’s right. That’s right. She seduces the prince.”

After hearing that, Alisa didn’t feel bad at all.

She felt like she could be that kind of beautiful witch.

So, she decided to play along with the kids.

“Yeah, that’s right. Actually, I’m a witch.”

Seungjun nodded as if he had expected it.

“I knew it. You can’t take Siha!”

“Hana will protect Siha too.”

“Ah? Alisa.”

Siha knew Alisa, so he didn’t really think that way.

But it looked fun, so he decided to see Alisa as a witch with the kids.

Alisa said,

“Sorry, but I have to take Siha. I’m going to cast a spell on him.”

Seungjun and Hana widened their eyes.

“Ah, no.”

“No. No.”

“Sorry, but if you breathe in this powder, you’ll fall asleep.”

Alisa blew a puff of air for a smooth resolution.

Seungjun stuck out his belly.

“That doesn’t work on me!”

“Hana too. Hana too.”

Alisa met some difficult kids.

She never expected them to say it wouldn’t work here.

Then, she had no choice but to use force.

“Physical magic.”

Alisa quickly picked up Siha.

“Ah.”

Siha wiggled his feet.

Seungjun and Hana tried to grab him, but Alisa quickly carried him into the director’s office.

“Ah! Catch her!”

“Catch the witch.”

Seungjun and Hana chased after her, but the door was already firmly closed.

“Oppa [Older brother, used by younger males], what do we do?”

“It’s okay. The boss is inside.”

The director, who boasts the best strength in the daycare.

Seungjun decided to trust the director.

A moment later. The door opened.

“Huh?!”

“Siha?!”

“Siha is…….”

“Siha is…….”

Siha came out wearing oversized clothes.

A puppy headband that guarantees a cute look on his head.

“A puppy?”

“Did he become one?”

Seungjun was shocked that the director couldn’t stop the witch.

“Ah, puppy~”

Siha clenched his fists as if he liked the clothes.

“Woof woof.”

He imitated a puppy and shook his body.

There was also a small tail attached to the top, so it wagged.

Alisa, who was behind him, hummed a tune as if she was satisfied.

“Hehe~”

Hana stared at Siha and then grabbed Alisa’s leg.

“Hana too. Cast a spell on Hana too.”

“Huh?”

Alisa scratched her head as if she was in trouble.

“Hana too. Hana too.”

“Hmm. Sorry, but I can only cast a spell once a day.”

“Hing.”

Alisa didn’t know what to do as she looked at the tearful Hana.

The problem was that even her crying face was so cute that she wanted to do something for her.

“Instead, I promise you that I’ll make you a princess later.”

“Really?”

“Yeah. I promise.”

“Yay!”

Hana raised her arms.

Seungjun, who was watching the scene, pulled on Alisa’s pants.

“Can you cast a spell on me too?”

Actually, Seungjun wanted to join in too.

Alisa smiled at the words.

“Hahaha. Okay. Okay. I’ll cast a spell on you later.”

At that time, Si Hyuk arrived.

“What on earth is going on?”

***

Let’s sort things out.

I came to the daycare, and Alisa is here, and Siha is wearing clothes I’ve never seen before.

So cute.

Is that what they call puppy-like charm?

No, that’s not it.

Suddenly, I’m so concerned about the paper bag in Alisa’s hand.

White. Yes. I can see white.

It seems to have some volume. Who would see it as men’s clothing?

Then, I’m also concerned about the headband Siha is wearing.

So cute.

Let’s get a grip. You mean I have to do that too?

Alisa. Just kill me, you bastard!

I wanted to shout like that, but Siha ran to me, so I buried that feeling in my heart.

“Hyung [Older brother, used by younger males]~ Woof woof.”

“Siha~”

I hugged Siha tightly.

It’s so cute when he says woof woof.

I want to keep it as a photo.

“So cute. Siha, are the clothes uncomfortable?”

“Woof woof.”

Siha rubbed his cheek against me.

I also felt the touch of Siha’s soft cheek and looked at Alisa.

“Don’t tell me it’s mine?”

“That’s right.”

“Please tell me it’s not.”

“That’s right. We’re starting the competition now. At this time when the midterms are ending…….”

“Let’s see. The midterm period is still…….”

“You said you don’t have lectures on Friday, right?”

“Did I say that too?”

Why does everyone know I don’t have lectures on Friday?

Did I say it?

Anyway, I should be careful about what I say in the future.

Alisa said,

“Well, shall we cast a spell now?”

Hana reacted to the words.

“Hana too. Hana too.”

Alisa changed her words as if she had realized something.

“I can cast a spell on one child and one adult a day. I cast it on Siha earlier, so I’ll cast it on Hana later.”

“Hing. Okay.”

“Can you cast a spell on me too~”

I couldn’t help but laugh when I saw Seungjun.

What is this child fighting with?

“Hyung [Older brother, used by younger males]~”

“Yeah?”

“Together. Woof woof.”

“Ugh.”

Okay. Now that I’ve decided to do it, let’s just close my eyes and wear it.

Anyway, it seems like Alisa came to get feedback on whether the clothes fit well.

“Give it to me. I’ll go change and come back.”

I took the paper bag from Alisa and moved to another place.

A moment later.

When I came out wearing the clothes, Alisa’s eyes sparkled.

“Si Hyuk. You look really great!”

“I don’t think so…….”

Actually, the design was okay.

No, as expected of a design student, it was cool.

It’s getting warmer now, so it’s a bit hot.

The top and bottom matched really well.

If it weren’t for the headband, I could go out and walk around wearing it.

“Haa…….”

“Hyung [Older brother, used by younger males].”

“Yeah. Siha.”

“Cute~”

“R, really?”

“Siha and same.”

“Yeah. Same with Siha.”

Siha pounded his head on my leg as if he liked it.

I took a picture because the sight was cute.

Click. Click. Click. Click. Click. Click.

‘I didn’t take this many pictures?’

When I looked up, Alisa was taking pictures.

“Hahaha. The picture of the two of you is so cute.”

“First, send it to my KakaoTalk [Korean messaging app] and delete it.”

“Hehe.”

“Don’t pretend you don’t know.”

“Ah~ why~ I need to refer to it as data~”

“Where did that cute voice come from? Send it and delete it quickly. It’s okay for me to have it, but it’s not okay for others to have it.”

At that time, Hana ran to me.

“Si Hyuk oppa [Older brother, used by younger females]~”

“Yeah?”

“Cool! So cool. Cute.”

Could coolness and cuteness be had at the same time?

“Yeah. Thank you.”

“Like~”

“Haha. You like these clothes, right?”

Alisa smiled softly and said to Hana.

“That’s what puppy-like charm is, Hana.”

“Puppy charm?”

“Puppy-like charm.”

“Puppy-like charm!”

Has Alisa become so fluent in Korean?

Tell me honestly. Is Korean more comfortable than English?

As I was having such doubts, I saw the parents coming to pick up their children.

It’s a bit embarrassing to be wearing clothes like this, so I should change quickly.

“Hana~ Seungjun~”

A voice calling Hana and Seungjun.

Seungjun shouted.

“It’s Dad!”

If it’s Dad, he must be a professor or staff member?

“Dad~”

Seungjun ran to the entrance of the daycare.

A voice was heard from outside.

“Oh my. My son. Do you like Dad?”

“Yeah, yeah.”

“Where is our Hana?”

“There~”

“Really? Hana~”

Seungjun and Hana’s father appeared.

Professor Oh Sang-hwan, a semiconductor expert in the Department of Electronic Engineering.

He was the professor who came up while talking with Seo Soo-hyun before.

‘Come to think of it, Seungjun and Hana were Oh’s, right?’

Oh Seung-jun, Oh Hana.

I don’t know why I didn’t notice.

Well, they don’t resemble the professor and resemble their mother.

‘Well, the professor doesn’t know my face.’

He only got to know my face through the graduate student at the Career Development Center.

“Hana. Dad came.”

“Yeah.”

Hana just answered and looked at me.

Sparkling.

She must have liked my clothes.

“Hana. You have to hug Dad.”

“What?!”

Hana stretched out her arms to me.

I smiled awkwardly and hugged her.

“Soft.”

“Hyung [Older brother, used by younger males]. Siha too.”

“Yeah. Okay.”

I ended up hugging Siha and Hana on both sides.

The professor in front of me had a shocked expression.

I smiled awkwardly and greeted him.

“Hello…….”

I thought about what to call him and opened my mouth.

“Hana’s father?”

“Father?! Cough!”

The professor coughed very uncomfortably.

‘What did I do wrong? I don’t even know his face, so I didn’t think I should call him professor, so I said father? Should I have said professor?’

Then Hana said.

“Si Hyuk oppa [Older brother, used by younger females]. Like this. Cool.”

“Yeah. Thank you.”

“Cough!”

The professor’s expression was so bad that I didn’t know if he was sick.

***

While going home, I was asked a question by Alisa.

“Were the clothes uncomfortable?”

“Um. When I first wore them, they weren’t uncomfortable.”

“Are there any parts that are irritating to your body or that your skin is sensitive to and turned red?”

“No. I looked at Siha’s body too, and it was clean.”

“That’s a relief.”

I looked at Alisa.

Is it because she’s a fashion design student?

She seemed to dress quite well.

She must have done a lot of research.

Fashion was also an area of ​​creation.

The problem was that there were cases where it went wrong or the work was not to her liking when she started making the design.

Rather, I wanted to ask her something like this.

“You’re actually making what’s in your head. It’s different and you don’t like it, right?”

“There have been many times like that. It wasn’t this color in my head. Something like that. If I like the color, the fabric is not good. If it’s rough when I wear it, it’s uncomfortable. That doesn’t mean putting it on top of the clothes, and it doesn’t seem to fit the season.”

There are various concerns.

I nodded. It was more interesting than I thought. Maybe it was because she was a student going a different path than me that I was more interested.

Should I go this way for my career?

For example, a fashion columnist.

“How about a fashion columnist? Do you think I can do it?”

Alisa shook her head.

“No.”

“Why?”

“Because you haven’t seen enough.”

“I can see a lot from now on.”

“It’s different. It’s very different. This is greatly influenced by what you see, hear, and grow up with. Feeling. There’s something called feeling, right?”

“Feeling?”

“Yes. Feeling. Do you know why people study abroad?”

“In my opinion, studying abroad broadens people’s horizons. I think this is big…. Do people usually just think of it as a spec [short for ‘specification,’ referring to a credential or qualification]?”

“I don’t know about other things. These designs and arts are like that. I’m not saying be rich, but if you have the means, you can appreciate many works. You get a lot of inspiration from colors and designs from an early age. There’s a lot of input.”

“Hmm.”

“Clothes also often see and wear expensive things. Like clothes from famous designers.”

“Right?”

“It may seem like nothing, but the feeling and sense are already ‘naturally’ sharp. Intuition. I’m talking about something like this.”

“Amazing.”

“In fact, even if you’re a fashion columnist, it’s just expressing that intuition in an easy-to-understand way, so it might be a different area.”

Alisa just smiled.

“That’s right. If you don’t have a sense, it would be difficult to do fashion design, right?”

“If you work hard correctly for 10 years, there’s no problem. The problem is that you don’t know what the right effort is.”

“Right effort…….”

Come to think of it, it was the same concern I had for Siha.

Sense. How do I develop this sense?

Can I do that?

Such worries.

‘Hmm.’

Alisa smiled.

“If it’s because of Siha, don’t worry too much. If you do anything like crazy for 10 years, you’ll reach a certain level. You have no problem making a living, right?”

“That’s right.”

Alisa said with sparkling eyes.

“But I want to be at the top. I want to hone my senses and go out. So, I can’t just do it with a sense.”

Alisa looked up at the mountains far away.

As if her destination was set.

“That’s great. The top.”

“Because it’s my dream. What’s Si Hyuk’s dream?”

“Me?”

My dream is nothing special.

“Fertilizer.”

“Yes?”

I smiled softly and touched Siha’s head.

Siha looked up at me.

“Ah?”
