2. clumsiness

Several days have passed since then.

Kyunghee continued to write novels.

When I’m not using my laptop, it’s always hanging in front of it.

In the meantime, I wondered if I would neglect painting, but it wasn’t at all.

Kyunghee absorbed various techniques like a sponge.

The drawings, which at first were mere graffiti, gradually became elaborate.

The ability to draw only the face increased day by day, and now he was drawing the whole body.

It was only natural that he would spend most of his day writing and drawing.

And I knew what the intention was.

It was a time when I was studying after I went to school and opened my major book.

Kyung-hee said that this picture was drawn well, and it was drawn on the day I was wearing a guajamba.

In fact, a cute SD version of me was drawn in the notebook.

When I praised it, Kyung-hee closed her eyes as if it were natural.

It was obvious what he was asking for, so he stroked his hair.

Kyung-hee opened her eyes as if she was addicted to drugs.

Then he hugged me and rubbed his face on my chest.

He even told me to look forward to it next time, saying that he would draw LD.

I slowly removed Kyunghee. Kyunghee made a puzzled expression.

Then he looked at my face with anxious eyes.

He seemed to be desperately racking his brains to see if he had done something wrong.

Of course, it wasn’t that he didn’t like Kyung-hee or pushed him away because he did something wrong.

When speaking, look into the eyes and speak.

It was only pushed to practice that obvious fact.

Realizing that, Kyunghee smiled broadly and puffed out her cheeks.

It seemed like he was scolding me not to joke around like that, so I couldn’t help but laugh.

“How’s the writing going?”

“Ah? I write tens of thousands of words a day. As you know, all I do is write and draw.”

“Really? Do you think it works well?”

“Yeah. I’m thinking of serializing it soon.”

“Can I see it too?”

“ah.”

Kyunghee averted her gaze.

Then he shook his head with a reddened face.

It seemed like it would never happen.

Well, I did just that. Because there’s no way you can show me a novel that’s obsessed with me.

The painting went well, but he seemed to think that there was no possibility of the writing going well.

In fact, I was already looking at plum blossoms.

Kyung-hee made a folder and hid it deep inside, but finding it wasn’t even a job.

But pretending not to know, he said he would know, and smiled, saying he would wait until he showed it.

“Rather than that, I have to go buy groceries later.”

“Let’s go together. Today, let’s buy Siwoo’s favorite side dish ingredients.”

“I don’t really care. I eat anything.”

“But. Don’t just eat the side dishes I like all the time, Siwoo wants to eat the side dishes you like too.”

Kyung-hee looked at me as if he couldn’t do it.

To be honest, I didn’t like or dislike the food.

Because I was a person who would eat anything as long as it tasted good.

But if you say you love it…

No, it’s better to just say what you want to eat now.

“Shall we eat some pasta?”

“pasta?”

Kyunghee’s eyes lit up.

I heard something ominous, but I ignored it for now and nodded.

Just as the pasta noodles ran out, there was also sauce left.

Thinking that I should buy new noodles and eat all the sauce at this point, I took a post-it and wrote the pasta noodles.

Then, after filling in the missing ingredients, I changed into comfortable clothes.

Kyung-hee tried to go out wearing only a T-shirt, but as if she remembered something, she hurriedly pulled out a hoodie and put it on.

Then he carefully closed his ears and pulled the hood down to hide them.

When I asked if it would look weird if the hood was pressed down without zipping it up, Kyunghee hurriedly zipped it up.

Kyung-hee, who was ready like that, naturally embraced my arm.

Then she rubbed her cheek against her shoulder and smiled as if she was happy in the world.

Now, it seemed that she could only be seen as a complete girlfriend.

I liked it because it was completely brighter than the first time.

“That’s right, Siwoo.”

“yes?”

“Is it easy to make pasta?”

“Yes. Just boil the noodles and mix the sauce.”

“Then, can I make it today?”

“yes?”

“I want to try cooking too.”

Kyunghee said with a determined expression.

It was so cute, I couldn’t help but laugh.

Because I was prepared to say something great.

Cooking wasn’t difficult at all.

So, even beginners could easily do it.

“Would you like to make some Neapolitan spaghetti?”

“Okay. But, how are you doing it?”

Kyunghee asked with a look on her face that it would be difficult.

It was nothing. It’s more difficult than regular pasta, but you just need to know how to cut a knife.

Onions, Vienna sausages and ketchup. And when I said all I needed was noodles, Kyung-hee nodded.

Then he looked at me as if he was going to listen.

It was to the extent that he walked without looking at me and only looked at me, so I said everything.

He said that he could just put the onion cut into squares in a pan with olive oil, and add the Vienna sausages cut into sheaths.

Then, put ketchup on top of it and stir-fry it, then add the boiled noodles and season it.

I’m not good at seasoning, so when I said I’d do it, Kyung-hee nodded.

And if there were any leftovers, I thought I could cook them with the sauce.

After going to the mart like that, I went to the mart, and I came back home with each envelope.

As soon as she got home, Kyunghee washed her hands and put on an apron.

Then, as if he had jumped up, he saw that he hadn’t tied the string on his apron.

He sighed slowly, tying the string, and ran his hand through the hair that fell over.

Then I washed my arms, washed my hands, and took out the ingredients and trimmed them.

Meanwhile, Kyunghee watched me.

From now on, the firm will stood out as if he would do it himself.

“Come on, Kyunghee. You have to hold the knife carefully.”

“yes.”

“Come and stand here.”

“yes?”

After putting the ingredients and the kitchen knife on the cutting board, he had Kyung-hee stand in front of it.

Then he stood behind and grabbed Kyunghee’s wrist.

Then, the bewildered Kyung-hee’s ears soared to the sky.

Kyung-hee’s tail, which he hadn’t seen before, was also there.

It was black, and it swelled up like hair, sticking out through his pants.

I watched it for a while because it was interesting, but Kyung-hee seemed to have other thoughts.

Otherwise, there would be no way to hide his blushing face while stuttering.

After reminding myself to concentrate again, I began to explain.

“Now, put your hands like a cat’s hands. Yes. Like that. And then I’m going to chop the onion.”

“Eh, like this?”

“Yeah. You’re good at it. Cut it in half, cut it in half like that. Don’t cut it all, just cut it this far, and now cut it into squares.”

“aha……”

“It’s important not to get hurt, so it’s okay if it’s big. Slice it like that.”

“yes….!”

“I have to fry the onion for a long time, so I’ll use the sausage later. Okay?”

“Yeah. So what about noodles…?”

“It’s my first time, so I’ll boil it. You’re not good enough to do both at the same time, are you?”

“yes………”

Kyunghee made a sullen expression.

It wasn’t until after he said he couldn’t help it for safety reasons that he could see his expression loosen up.

While boiling water and adding noodles, I asked what I was curious about.

“Did you have a tail too?”

“Ah, yes. I usually hide it under my pants. But, when I’m in a good mood, my hair swells up and pops out.”

“aha.”

“You can’t put it out there. And it gradually grew.”

“Have you grown up?”

“Well, it wasn’t there when I first came home. But, over time, it was growing.”

Kyunghee made an anxious expression.

The reason why he hid the fact that his tail grew was obvious even if he didn’t see it.

He probably didn’t say anything because he thought he would be despised as a monster.

Kyeong-hee’s pupils were shaking wildly as if she was still thinking about that.

I said it was okay and then hugged her tightly.

After that, Kyunghee’s ears went up.

“I’ll ask you to take a look. I’m going to finish solving the problem I was doing earlier.”

“Yes, leave it to me.”

“I’ve explained enough at the mart, so can you do it?”

“Of course, Siwoo. You can look forward to it.”

Kyeong-hee smiled as if asking her to leave it to her.

To be honest, I was anxious, but I had to finish what I had to do right away.

Classes start straight away from next week, and it was obvious that if I didn’t review, I would vomit coffee while studying.

I was studying like that, and Kyung-hee must have seen me doing it, so it seemed to move quite well.

Take out the noodles and cut the sausage. Continue to fry the onion in the wok and then drop the sausage.

But something was strange, so I immediately jumped out of my seat and stood up.

He hurriedly grabbed Kyunghee’s wrist, hiding her hand, and looked at her fingers.

The tip of Kyunghee’s index finger was deeply cut.

So it was like being cut with a cleaver. I must have made an angry expression, so Kyung-hee averted my gaze. Then he bowed his head.

The feeling of resignation that I think I will be punished because I did something wrong stood out.

But I wasn’t upset about it.

After turning off the gas, I washed Kyung-hee’s fingers and took out a first-aid kit from the cupboard.

After applying the ointment and attaching bandages, he held Kyung-hee’s hands and said firmly.

“I told you to be careful not to get hurt.”

“Sorry……”

“And I won’t complain about getting hurt. Be careful next time, and tell me right away if you get hurt.”

“yes……….”

“Still, it’s good that it didn’t cut too deep, right?”

I let go of my face and smiled as if I was going to forgive him, and Kyunghee nodded her head in response.

The ears soared as if they were going to pierce the sky again, and soon they started to prick up.

I finished cooking the pasta for Kyunghee.

When I tasted it in the middle, it was strangely fishy and I had to adjust the seasoning again, but the dish itself was a great success.
