Brother, Am I Cute? [EN]: Chapter 436

Hyung, Am I Cute? Hyung, Am I Cute? Extra Story – Episode 11 (436/500)

Extra Story 11: After-Party

The mothers must have already planned the after-party because it didn’t even take them a minute to decide where to go.

An indoor theme park.

There are many different rides, and each facility has its staff, so the children can move around safely.

Most of all, it’s attractive because the mothers can watch the kids comfortably.

I simply followed the mothers’ opinions and went with the flow.

It’s best to follow quietly in these situations.

Siha and the other kids were already unable to hide their excitement at the thought of the theme park.

Although it’s indoors, the facilities are incredibly vast, so it felt like we could enjoy a variety of things.

“Hyung. This place is huge.”

“It is.”

I heard it just opened recently.

It’s full of things that kids can’t help but love, so it feels like a place of dreams and hopes.

Seungjun calls out to Siha.

“Siha! Let’s go there first!”

As there are many rides, the children’s various tastes are reflected.

An active kid like Seungjun likes things that allow him to move around excitedly.

He grabs Siha’s hand and heads to the tube sledding area together.

Having to go up is inconvenient, but you can still fully enjoy the thrill of going down.

“Oppa, let’s go together!”

Hana grabs Yeonju’s hand and follows behind them.

She’s always bickering with Seungjun, but when they play, they play as one.

They usually tend to follow.

Yeonju just reacted as if anything was fine with her.

“Hyung. Watch me!”

Siha seems to be the type who just needs me to watch him.

What is it? Does he have the qualities of a streamer?

Maybe it’s because he’s been uploading YouTube videos since he was young.

Or maybe he tasted popularity back when he was an ‘ant’ [referring to a very young age or small size].

“Watch me!”

“Yeah. Okay. I’m watching.”

I’ve been watching him since he was young, so there’s no problem with watching.

Toc toc.

Someone taps my shoulder with their finger. I turn around and it’s my uncle.

“Sihyuk, I heard there’s a massage chair over there. I’m going to go there for a bit!”

Excuse me? Uncle? Did you come here to play?

“This place is nice. There’s even a space for parents to rest.”

“Yes. Go ahead.”

“Okay~”

There was a sleeping room separated for men and women, and he’s going to enjoy the massage chairs there.

There’s always someone like my uncle. He leaves the kids to their mom and entrusts himself to the massage chairs.

Then he falls asleep.

As expected, my unemployed uncle is on another level. Even when he comes to play, he’s looking for a way to rest!

Even if he were thrown on a deserted island, he’s the type to sleep comfortably on a tree!

“Yoon-dong, let’s ride that!”

Nod.

Eunwoo and Yoondong especially liked riding things.

Like motorcycles and racing cars. Those kinds of rides weren’t that fast, but the kids liked them.

It ends after one or two laps, but they make very satisfied expressions.

Do kids who like rap and dance also like riding things? It feels like they’re little rebels when they ride those things at that age?

“Alright. Let’s conquer this place today.”

“Jongsu, here?”

“Yeah.”

A huge maze jungle gym.

It goes from the first floor to the fourth floor, and it’s exactly Jongsu’s style.

Of course, Jaehwi was trembling at the jungle gym’s grand appearance.

If I had to pick Jaehwi’s style, he likes static play.

Like Legos or fishing for fish. Or he likes games too.

I saw him glance at the game consoles and the fishing game area when we came earlier.

But as always, he tends to follow the majority rather than asserting himself, so he’s dragged around by Jongsu.

“Doesn’t that look fun?!”

“It looks kind of scary…….”

“We’re going to do everything. I’m good at mazes like this. Let’s go!”

It was also fun to watch Jaehwi struggle as he entered the maze.

“Hyung. Are you watching?!”

“Y-Yeah! I’m watching!”

“You weren’t watching, were you?!”

“No. I was watching.”

I always get caught when I’m not watching.

It feels like when you’re taking a break from studying and your mom comes in and sees you.

“Are you going to ride the slide again?”

“Yeah!”

There were so many different kinds of slides.

A volcano was also set up here, and balls popped out of the crater.

Seungjun can’t resist balls.

“Hyung. Robot!”

“Wow. There is.”

You could also ride a robot, and you could control it yourself.

But Siha was too small to ride alone, so I rode with him and controlled it.

Siha’s eyes sparkle at the moving robot with the exciting music.

“Wow! Wow!”

I was able to enjoy it quite a bit too.

It’s my first time controlling a robot like this too.

“Oppa. Let’s go there now. There!”

Hana grabbed Seungjun’s clothes and pointed to a place.

A role-playing theme park.

I think it’s just like Hana, who likes playing house.

***

Siha went to find his uncle.

He didn’t notice when he was playing, but after playing for a while, he realized that his uncle wasn’t around.

“Uncle!”

His uncle is sitting in a massage chair, comfortably asleep.

Siha turned the massage chair’s intensity to the maximum.

The time has come to repay his uncle for playing pranks on him.

He couldn’t miss this opportunity.

Rumble, rumble.

The massage chair increases its output.

“Ugh!”

His uncle, who was sleeping soundly, opened his eyes in pain.

“Ugh.”

Siha smiled as he watched his uncle suffer.

His uncle lifted his back and adjusted the massage chair’s intensity to weak.

“Uncle. Are you awake?”

“The way you woke me up is very cruel, Siha. Can you handle this?”

“Uncle. What are you talking about?”

“Don’t pretend you don’t know. You did this, didn’t you?”

“No. It was already like this when I got here?”

“Uh-huh. I can tell whether you’re lying or not just by looking at you.”

“Uncle is lying.”

“Really?”

“Yes.”

“Then tell me why you think I’m lying.”

“Uh?! Your eyes are shaking a lot when you talk, and your breathing isn’t steady.”

“Then if I close my eyes and lie, I won’t get caught?”

“That’s not it. Anyway! Why did you wake me up like this? Ugh. My back hurts.”

“I’m telling you, I didn’t do it.”

“I can’t catch you.”

His uncle clicked his tongue as if he was disappointed.

Siha wasn’t caught in the leading question. He’s been caught so many times that he doesn’t get caught easily in these things.

“Uncle. Let’s play together now.”

“You can just play with your friends.”

“No. I need Uncle.”

“Why me?”

“I need you.”

“Ugh. It’s hard to play with kids.”

“Uncle. I’m playing with you. You paid money to come here, but it’s a waste if you just sleep like this. Right?”

“No. I’m satisfied?”

“Don’t get scolded by Hyung for not sleeping later at night and come quickly.”

“No. I don’t get scolded?”

His uncle glances at Sihyuk.

Fortunately, he’s not listening to the conversation and is smiling slightly while texting on his phone.

He must be talking to his girlfriend, Seo Suhyun.

“Hey, Siha.”

“Yeah?”

“Your hyung also doesn’t sleep late at night?”

“No. Hyung always sleeps early with me?”

“Tsk tsk. What would a kid like you know?”

“???”

Siha succeeded in waking up his uncle anyway.

He went straight to the role-playing theme park where his friends were.

There was a mart, a hospital, a beauty salon, a classroom, and a police station.

“Hey. Lee Siha. Come quickly.”

Jongsu urged.

Everyone was waiting at the police station.

His uncle wondered what was going on and looked around.

“Uncle. Go in here now.”

“Isn’t this a jail?”

“That’s right. Uncle got arrested.”

“Why though?”

“The police will tell you that.”

“Who’s the police?”

“Jongsu!”

Jongsu was holding a file he got from somewhere.

“Alright. Mister. Be quiet. Quiet! Answer only the questions I ask!”

“I wasn’t being that loud?”

Jongsu slams the desk with the file, like he’s seen somewhere.

“Okay. Name.”

“Lee Siha.”

“That’s not it. That name!”

“That’s my name.”

“You’re a foreigner, but you have a Korean name?”

“My Korean name is Lee Siha.”

“I checked, and your name is Lee Hwasang?”

“How did you know that?”

Siha said from the side.

“Uncle. I told him. Uncle’s Korean name.”

“Even so, that’s not the name!”

“Did I do well?”

“Does this look like you did well?”

Siha had a proud look on his face.

He was filled with satisfaction at succeeding in teasing his uncle.

“Okay. Okay. Quiet. Quiet. Age.”

“18 years old.”

His uncle was shameless.

Jongsu made a dumbfounded expression.

“No! You don’t look 18 years old!”

“I’m a foreigner, so I look older faster.”

“Even so, you look too old!”

“Hey! I’m still young!”

His uncle flared up. He was at an age where he was very sensitive. He was worried about getting even one year older.

“Ah. Anyway, I’m 18 years old. I’m a minor, so let me go now.”

“Age is 60 years old.”

“Hey! That’s not it!”

His uncle protested, but he was already recorded as a 60-year-old foreigner.

“But what did you get arrested for?”

“I was arrested for loving too much.”

“Isn’t that a song? Jongsu, you know some old songs?”

“I was arrested for loving you too much.”

“But you can’t arrest someone for that.”

Yeonju appeared next to him, wearing a leather jacket.

“I’m sorry, but that’s what you were arrested for. If you love too much, it becomes an obsession.”

“Huh?”

“Dating violence. That’s what you were arrested for.”

“Oho.”

His uncle looked at Yeonju as if she was quite something.

Yeonju shrugged her shoulders at that reaction. It was an idea that came from watching dramas diligently these days.

“You deserve to be arrested for that.”

Hana came out.

“He’s my stalker. That’s why he was arrested.”

“Huh?”

“I’m an idol.”

“How many crimes is that?”

At that time, Siha stood next to his uncle.

“Uncle! You caused another accident?!”

“Uh-oh?”

“Ugh. How many times are you getting arrested? Do you know how often I come here? I want to stop coming now.”

“It’s like I come here as often as I eat.”

Siha also said this line to his uncle, as if he had seen something.

It seems that Siha was also influenced by his uncle watching too many dramas.

But he hesitated because he couldn’t think of the next line.

“Ah!”

“Ah, what?”

“Uncle is now mosquito-prison.”

“What’s mosquito-prison? Is it becoming a mosquito? You mean life imprisonment [a play on words, misinterpreting ‘mosquito-prison’].”

“Ah! That!”

“Do you know what you’re saying?”

“I don’t know!”

Siha was confident.

His uncle let out a hollow laugh as if he was dumbfounded.

He has to do role-playing with these ignorant children at the police station.

I have to show them what acting is.

His uncle slammed the desk and stood up.

“Hey! Do you know who I am? I’m! I eat with your chief! I go to the sauna! I’ve done it all!”

Seungjun said.

“Soccer?”

“Huh? What? Ahem. I did soccer too!”

Siha said.

“Didn’t you do that all with Hyung?”

His uncle thought.

‘No. Why are you suddenly bringing in reality?’

***

I played really hard with the kids.

There was also a restaurant here, so we all ate noisily together.

Rather than being sad because it was graduation day, it felt like we were just gathering together and playing.

In reality, they’re all from the same school, so it’s likely that they’re not thinking about breaking up.

At most, it’s just that they won’t be able to see their teachers as often.

Well, you can meet them anytime if you want.

Still, when you go to a new school and meet new teachers, that void may feel big.

The point where everyday life changes.

That’s graduation.

“I hope we’re all in the same class!”

It was what Siha said when we were eating dessert after finishing our meal.

The other kids agreed with Siha’s words.

Even the great Jongsu nods his head at Siha’s words.

It seemed like he was always bickering with Siha, but he must be sad to be separated.

“Huh? I don’t think it’s bad to be separated from Siha?”

Seungjun said.

“Wow. Jongsu is disappointed.”

“No! I’m just saying it’s not all bad. Hahaha!”

“From now on, we are enemies!”

“Are we enemies just because you said that once!”

Siha said.

“It would be fun if Jongsu was the only one separated.”

“Hey! Lee Siha!”

I wonder what class these kids will be in.

Still, considering that private elementary schools have few classes, there was a good chance that they could all be in the same class.

They won’t all be separated.

And not just one person will be left alone, right?
