Chapter 50: Heena, Don't Give Up! (4)

TL: looloo

Schedule: 4/Week Wed-Sat

Join the discord! Here

Heena, with a slightly embarrassed yet blushing face, nestled between my legs just like before.

I was at a loss for words, from the moment she meowed at the room door until she sat down in front of me again.

Nonchalantly tapping my thigh as if she wasn’t perturbed by my silence, she spoke.

"Oppa, aren’t you going to play the game?"

"How can I play a game in a situation like this?"

A cat just walked in!

Right now, a gigantic cat is sprinkling cuteness all over, sitting right here!

Soft meows, resembling those of a younger sister-like girlfriend, followed, suppressing the excitement stirred by the cosplay.

"This outfit is borrowed from your sister?"

"She bought it a while ago but never had the chance to wear it. She said it was embarrassing..."

Heena, too, looked somewhat bashful as she spoke, but it seemed it wasn’t enough to keep her from wearing it.

"Am I cute?"

"So cute I think I might go crazy."

"Hehehe..."

I tightly embraced Heena, who was twisting her body and laughing at my compliment, from behind.

Her small frame was distinctly perceptible through the surprisingly thin material of the animal costume.

Well, if it were thicker, it wouldn't have fit into Heena’s cross bag today.

"So, what do you think?"

"I said it’s cute."

"Other than that."

Maybe she wanted to hear she was cute again.

"You mentioned wanting to raise a cat in the future."

"Oh, I did say that."

It was one of the things I wanted to try when I started living alone. I’ll have to see how the situation is then. It would be tough if there's too little time to care for it.

It would be pitiful to leave it alone at home while I’m out all day.

"Now, I don’t think there’s a need to raise one, right?"

"Oh~ Are you going to take on the role of a cat too?"

"Can’t I? Is the cat cute, or am I cute?"

Of course, Ms. Lee Heena is cute.

However, I didn’t immediately affirm that. I wanted to see Heena's witty reaction to the playful act or role-play.

Thus, I smirked and played coy.

"It seems like what we have here isn’t a cat, considering it speaks human language so well."

At that, it seemed like Heena’s body slightly tensed.

"Uh-uh... Meow, meow..."

She let out a cat sound again.

Given her reaction, it seems saying 'meow' was more embarrassing than wearing the outfit.

"Good, good. Now you're like a cat."

I gently tickled her chin with my finger, just like how one would dote on a real cat.

Very gently, caressing her smooth skin slowly.

"Meooww..."

Whether the pleasantness outweighed the embarrassment, her face remained slightly flushed, yet she subtly lifted her chin, facilitating my petting.

"Cute, so cute~"

Unsure when such a day would come again, I excessively showered her with praises of cuteness while petting and stroking her.

Focusing on her chin and head.

We stayed like that for perhaps about 10 minutes.

Forgetting about the game and everything else, I played around, hugging Heena for a while. Eventually, I gave up on the computer, rising from the chair.

While I currently didn't feel like leaving the kitty Heena to watch TV, we decided to sit on the bed in my room and have a chat.

We also lightened the mood a bit by casually drinking a glass of water. It had been a day filled with constant exclamations of ‘so cute’.

But once the atmosphere became genuinely calm, a belated embarrassment seemed to hit Heena hard.

Suddenly, her ears turned red, and she couldn’t meet my eyes, so we decided to drop the informal address concept then and there.

"Today was really something else."

"...Did you like it that much? Should I keep doing it?"

"Nah, while it's cute, I much prefer your usual self."

I was sincere. Although it was to my taste and refreshing to see a new side of her, which made me happy all day, I liked Heena better when she emitted her usual mature vibe.

The Heena that subtly leads me and occasionally shows a cute side.

"Oppa..no, Yeonho. So, I was super cute today, right?"

"Of course. Don’t you remember how I was going crazy over it earlier?"

"Hmm..just being cute doesn’t cut it, huh."

"Huh?"

"Never mind."

When I questioned her meaningful words, Heena shook her head as if it was nothing.

"I was so surprised when I first saw you today."

"I was surprised, too. I didn’t expect you to like it so much."

"It was nice because you did it for me. The ‘oppa’ and this cat pajama... Pfft. Ah, this is really cute. I didn’t think you’d have something like this."

Whether it was a concept or there were genuine feelings mixed in, Heena’s jealousy that she showed earlier popped into my mind. As I made a comment to relieve her somewhat, I couldn’t help but smile at the sight of Heena, still in her cat pajamas, sitting next to me.

"So, Yeonho, do you want to get one later? Let's wear them as a couple!"

"Should we?"

Even if we buy them, we won’t wear them to sleep, but wearing them when it's just the two of us seemed like a nice idea.

With that excuse, I’ll be able to see Heena wearing it again.

"But, did you talk to noona about doing the younger concept?"

"Yes. She said it would be fine to show it ahead of time since there might be girls like that in the future. You know you absolutely shouldn’t fall for it, right?"

"Like I would..."

"I know. But it was nice, right?"

"Like I said earlier, only because you did it for me."

"Then, it's settled!"

Because I liked it, in any way, her goal was achieved, wasn't it? She was truly cute.

But today's playful concept of Heena’s made me feel delighted but also slightly sly.

My masculine concept, of course, wasn't welcomed because it overlapped with the usual image Heeseong hyung showed. But to squash it in one go and then put on a show like this.

While I wasn’t exactly angry, I pondered for a moment if there was something I could do from my end.

Maybe I should try the younger concept once.

As soon as that thought occurred to me, I crossed my arms over Heena’s arm that was beside me. Until then, Heena didn’t seem to feel anything special. Perhaps thinking it was just simple physical affection, she leaned into me even more.

I quietly observed her for a moment, then hesitantly opened my mouth.

"Heena noona."

"...Wha..what?"

Whether she was seriously flustered by the sudden 'noona' from me, she stammered, turning her head towards me robotically.

Today, instead of revenge, I continued to call her 'noona' as a repayment.

"Noona, why are you so cute?"

Gently stroking Heena's cheek with the back of my hand, I continued speaking without pausing, mixing in formal speech as if addressing an older girlfriend.

"How can you be this cute? I'm scared someone might snatch you away."

"......"

I tried expressing a line that might appear in a romance novel. It seemed more fun than saying something realistic, albeit being cringeworthy.

Even though I felt goosebumps while speaking, Heena's reaction was even more dramatic.

Unable to say anything, she stiffened amusingly, and I couldn’t stop myself.

Heena, having only a brother, probably hadn’t heard the term 'noona' often. Considering she went to an all-girls middle and high school and never attended a co-ed academy.

Except for the occasional relatives, she probably hadn’t heard it.

But what kind of vibe should a younger boyfriend give off? It should be cute when Heena acts cute, not when I do.

But since I didn't have much else to say, I decided to give it a try.

My own attempt at being cute.

"Noona, please kiss me."

As I pulled on her arm and bent my waist to look up at her, that's how I said it.

"Hah."

Heena, who had been rigid throughout, chuckled while lifting one corner of her mouth and threw back the hood of her pajamas that had been covering her head.

-Then, after a pop, she freed the arm I was holding and gently pushed me down onto the bed, climbing on top of me.

I looked up at her as she sat on my stomach.

I sweated nervously, wondering if I had pushed Heena’s rationality with this smoothly unfolding situation.

"Uh, Heena? I was just trying to make a little joke...."

"Han Yeonho."

I hurriedly began to explain at the lioness-like gaze from Heena, who was no longer the cute kitten, but her low voice cut me off.

"You really don’t know how much I’ve been holding back, do you?"

"That was you holding back?"

I was genuinely surprised at Heena’s words. Could it be that all the intense skinship until now was her kind of restraint?

As she looked down at me, stuttering with astonishment and incredulity mixing, Heena pushed her hair back.

"From now on, noona will do everything, so just stay still. Got it?"

"But... Heena, it’s still..."

"I said, be quiet."

My words, trying to say that we shouldn’t go too far, were once again cut off as Heena bent down.

"Yeonho-ya, your mouth."

Close to my nose, she dangled her head, licked her lips with her tongue, and said that, making me worried.

Will we really be able to stop properly after doing this?

"Noona says listen, okay? Your mouth."

As I hesitated without immediately obeying, worrying thoughts circling, she pressed my lips with one hand and demanded again.

Somewhat coerced by that assertive attitude, I eventually gently parted my lips.

Today, inebriated by Heena's cuteness, I felt as if I’d unwittingly opened Pandora’s box.

"Uhm─"

As our lips overlapped, I meekly accepted the pink fleshy mass that began to explore my mouth.

For nearly an hour.

For an hour, I couldn’t escape, laid beneath her, receiving the kiss led by Heena.

After that ended and I went to the bathroom, looking in the mirror, my lips were a mess, surrounded by teeth marks and saliva.

After washing away those traces and returning to the room, Heena's face, seemingly sparkling, brightly welcomed me.

"Do you want to watch a drama together?"

"....Yeah, let’s do that."

The older-sister-figure from moments before disappeared somewhere, leaving behind only a kitten, purring on my arm, clad in cat pajamas.

Today, the last day of vacation spent with my girlfriend, who showed several different sides of herself in just one day, ended quietly watching a drama until my mom returned.

There are relaxed dates with nothing special, and there are exciting dates like today, every once in a while.

Another day like this passed by.

Surely, I will spend such times with Heena in the future.

Of course, I'd appreciate if she could hold back a little until the day after my next birthday. It's hard for me to hold back, too.

Author's Note:

I won’t skip 1 or 2 years at once, but I'm planning to fast-forward a bit.
