âNo more unnecessary waste of time, letâs get down to business.â said Eden, sitting on a chair away from me.
âBefore we start, I think we should have a teatime to recover from fatigue.â
âSkip it, I donât need it.â
âYour face isnât saying the same thing.â
When I heard Richardâs words, Eden didnât look good. A shadow thickened under his eyes represented his tiredness.
âDid he say he suffers from insomnia?â Seeing him press down on his temple, he seemed to have a headache.
âYou didnât sleep at all again, did you? Youâll ruin your body.â
âI slept for about two hours.â
âThatâs what they call a sleepless night.â
âStop the small talk, and get to the pointâ
When Eden didnât even pretend to hear the nagging, Richard shrugged as if it was a familiar situation.
âWell, anyway, letâs get down to business and start Daddyâs classâ. (Dad 101 class)
The time has come at last.
âDaddyâs classâ.  ìëč ìì .â
The four letters were tense all over.
There are several things that must be prepared separately from the âadoption applicationâ in the service, which has strict adoption standards.
a foster identification card
a letter of recommendation from a orphanage.
And finally, âDaddy Classâ that we have to complete.
The problem was that the âdaddy classâ was quite embarrassing.
Seeing that Eden looks like he stepped on poop, he must have heard the explanation in advance.
âI have already explained it to your excellency, but I will explain it again for you my lady.â
âI know what daddyâs class is. it is a must-have program before adoption.â
âI didnât expect you to know what it is.â Richardâs eyes grew round a little surprised.
Oops. Is it a difficult concept for a four-year-old to know? To avoid suspicion, she made the most innocent expression.
âAn adopted sister from orphanage told me not too long ago.â
âThanks to that, itâs easier to explain. As you know, you can carry out the program with your Excellency for one-week as a temporary protection period.â
âUh, yes.â Please read this novel at Bwithy0u Translation wordpress. Do not copy or repost
To be honest, I wasnât confident.
Itâs not anybody else, itâs Eden LionHeart and Daddyâs class!
When I saw his consistently cold attitude to me, the future was clear.
âThere is nothing to worry about. Itâs not that difficult for you.â
Richard, who stopped talking along the way, said, looking toward Eden with a face that seemed somehow in dismay.
âOn the contrary, the other side will be difficult.â
No, Richard. Itâs hard for me, too. I swallowed my answer in silence.
In general, âdaddy classesâ make the relationship between adoptive parents and adoptees strong.
If I were a normal kid, Iâd be as he said. It will be a time to have fun making memories with adoptive parents.
But my opponentâŠâŠ, Itâs a lionâs beast that has a deep grudge against humansâ
Thereâs no way it is going to be harmonious with LionHeart, who is known for being cold-blooded, as usual!
âI told you not to go side road.â (not to speak other useless things)
Look, look, look, look at the attitude.
I was already disturbed to think that it was something I might hear in the future.
âWell, weâre busy on our schedule, so shall we get started?â
Richard, the only hope of my adoptive life, lifted me up.
âSince itâs my first time, I think itâs better to start with something relatively easyâŠââŠ.â
My stomach is growling.
Suddenly there was a roar in my stomach.
ââŠâŠ.â
I was in a hurry to wrap my stomach and pretend I didnât know
My stomach is growling!
What a slow-witted navel clock. Suddenly letting out a frivolous cry
ââŠâŠ.â
ââŠâŠHahâ Eden snickered in the flowing silence.
âIn many waysâŠ..â He didnât say anything behind his back, but he clicked his tongue.
What, what, what, why! People can be hungry!
I wanted to hide in a rat hole.
âOh, my lady must be hungry.â
âIâll be back in an hour.â Eden left the room.
I buried my face in Richardâs chest.
âWhen a baby is hungry, itâs amazing not to cry.â
He didnât even know thatâŠ..
âYouâre just a nasty-tempered lion.â I glared at the door where he left for no reason.
âWill I ever get along with that feisty king?ââ
In many ways, tough dad classes were expected.
* * *
Fortunately, I ate alone.
Eden skips breakfast or something like that.
Well itâs a thank you for me.
I was very relieved that I didnât have to be conscious at least when Iâm eating.
âDid you like the meal?â
âYes! I really enjoyed the meal.â I nodded vigorously.
The richness of the tomato meatball stew still lingered on the tip of the tongue.
âIâm sorry to have to serve you the food bought outside because there are no chefs in the mansion yet.â
âIâm fine.â Please read this novel at Bwithy0u Translation wordpress. Do not copy or repost
Richard took out a handkerchief and wiped my mouth.
âFor the time being, I think we should buy meals from outside like today. Iâll try to get a cook as soon as possible.â
âYou donât have to overdo it.â I was really fine.
It was because I liked the food he bought at the restaurant on Main Street.
âWhen Iâm in the orphanage, I donât have a chance to eat expensive food like this.â
The children of the orphanage wanted to try the food of a high-end restaurant, but the finances of the Need Orphanage were not very sufficient.
The first and last time we ate the food of restaurant was last yearâs Family Month Banquet.
The caretaker bought us high-quality food by spending all the money she had collected.
Nevertheless, she was sorry that she couldnât buy us often.
âI canât believe I can eat such expensive food every day now.ââ
No way.
Iâm admiring LionHeartâs wealth
Eden burst in with the door open.
âYou should have ventilated it.â
As soon as he entered my room, he frowned and said hateful things.
âMY lady will be exposed to the cold air outside.â
âTell her to cover herself with a blanket.â
âThen sheâll catch a cold.â
In place of the stationary Richard, Eden opened all the windows in my room.
The cold air rushed into the room.
âAh-choo!â
I sneezed automatically as this was a fragile childâs body.
Eden looked at me with a crooked face.What else was he dissatisfied with.
âYouâre uselessly weak.â
But your body temperature is naturally high? I got emotional that I talked to myself for a while.
He suddenly took off his coat and threw it at me.
â!â
The fluttering heavy clothes settled over my head, and somehow I was wrapped around his clothes.
âWhat, what?â
Is he cursing or taking care of me.
He should have choose one of the twoâŠâŠ.
Itâs confusing.
âDonât make a scene and start.â
Eden turned his eyes away from me who had a puzzled expression on.
âYou two have a good start, so the first mission wonât be difficult.â
Richard held back his laughter and put what he had prepared into the room.
a large full-body mirror
an expensive wooden comb
accessories with precious jewels
a portable hanger full of childrenâs dresses
And lastly, the mysterious Magic stone.
Tension grew for no reason over the unusual items that lined up one after another.
âWhatâs this?â
âWhat do you mean? Itâs the first evaluation in daddyâs class, food, clothing, shelter & other necessities.â
I didnât think so, my God. Please read this novel at Bwithy0u Translation wordpress. Do not copy or repost
Richard shouted brightly as he looked at me with his mouth wide open.
âThe title of the video that will be recorded is â Sweet Daddy, who helps you dress up.â
âVideo recording?â
âIt was stated in the class completion criteria, and it said to record and submit the video using the designated Magic stone.â
âPut a lady in the right place.â
Perhaps expecting an answer from Eden, Richard pushed the underlined paper into him.
âIâm sorry, but you have to carry out your class yourself.â He didnât look sorry at all.
Eden closed his lips tightly. Like he didnât like something.
âIf you canât do it, would you do another option?â
Eden nodded his head.
âIn the category of food, clothing, and shelter, the choice other than helping to get dressed, the arrangement isâŠâŠ There are direct bathing and changing diapers. Whatâs your preference?â
Wait a minute. What, what, what?
Eden and my body hardened at the same time.
ââŠâŠI will go with the first earlier option.â
âItâs a great choice.â
Richard quickly gave him a brush. Eden was forced to hold a comb and stand in front of the mirror.
âItâs like a giant playing house.â
I canât believe Iâm seeing him holding a cute child comb, not a sword for slaughter. It has a pink ribbon.
Somehow my face burned with the strange combination.
âThen weâll start recording.â
with a click.
The operation button of the harness is pressed.
Now Eden and I had to play a friendly father-daughter relationship in front of a recording harness.
âSit down.â
said Eden, pointing to the chair in front of the mirror.
âItâs too high.â
Eden didnât budge.
No, to be exact, he didnât seem to know what he was supposed to do for me.
In the end, I stepped up first.
âGive me a hwugâ
ââŠâŠwhat?â
âI canât go up there alone. Dwuke have to hwold me.â I spread my arms at him.
Again, he didnât move. Maybe he didnât like the name.
âDaddy, give me a hwug.â
I corrected his name without meaning to it.
Itâs just acting for the recording anyway, so Eden will understand, right?
âIâŠ.understandâ
The voice, which had been cold all along, trembled slightly. He was like a broken robot.
Coming up with a stiff gesture, he helped me sit myself in the chair.
ââŠâŠthenâŠâŠletâs start combing.â
âYes, please take good care of me, Daddy.â
His hand, which touched her hair, flinched and soon began to move slowly.
brush.brush.brush.
It was a clumsy brushing act as if it had never been done before.
It didnât hurt at all.
âYouâre considerate of me, too.ââ
My long hair was tangled because I just woke up, but it didnât hurt thanks to a careful comb.
âWhat kind of style do you want?â
âI like everything you do for me.â
We had normal conversation as a father-daughter would.
Hardly combing her tangled hair, Eden pulled out a moderately colorful red ribbon from the accessory box.
âLetâs do it like this.â
âIs it strawberry jam color? I like it.â
Since then, he has been fiddling with my hair for a long time.
After concentrating, he tied it with a ribbon and finished it, and then stepped aside.
âItâs done.â
I could see myself in the mirror.
pigtails tied high
The point was the red ribbon that Eden chose and tied by himself.
âI love it, abswolutely!â
As I moved my head, my long hair and ribbon shook together.
When I looked at it as a girl, it was obvious that he had tied it for the first time, but this was not bad.
âSince he has done his best, shall I reciprocate?â
I stepped up from my chair with his coat on, to finish the video finale with the figure of a lovely child. Then I hugged him tightly around the waist.
âThanks, Daddy!â
ââŠâŠ.â
What?
I thought youâd say something, that you didnât like it, or push me away.
No response was returned.
Itâs just that Edenâs eyes strangely stayed with me for a long time.
Richard, who felt strange, stopped the Magic stone operation and called him softly.
ââŠâŠYour excellency?â
â!â
Surprised, Eden stepped back, covering my face with his forearm.
âAh!â Please read this novel at Bwithy0u Translation wordpress. Do not copy or repost
Along with that, I lost my balance and stumbled.
âThat scared me.â
Fortunately, I was alright since Iâm athletic. I almost fell off my chair and got hurt.
âYou surprised me.â
I looked at Eden with a thumping heart.
ââŠâŠthatâs the end for the recording.â
He was leaning sideways and fanning his face.
âThe beasts had a high body temperature, but was it hot because I hugged them?â
It was red from the back of his neck to the ears.
âAre you hot, dwuke?â
He left the room without answering my question.
You should say itâs hot if itâs hot. Why are you pushing people?
âIm gonna die because its freezing.â
Richard laughed when he saw me sniffing at his coat over my shoulder.
âIâll close the window for you.â
And so, we couldnât even see Edenâs nose until late in the evening.
Isnât daddy Eden such a tsundere? Lunaâs real cute too!
