Please be nice to me_
Episode 11. The Mysterious Person
백여주
You're showing me affection like this, right?
백여주
I'll let this call it even for you getting a bump on my forehead!
"Please love me_" _Episode 11
Clatter, clatter. He followed Yeoju, who was getting ready to do the dishes, and abruptly took her seat.
백여주
···?
백여주
What are you going to do?
김태형
No, I'm going to do the dishes!
백여주
...Suddenly?
백여주
I can do it, though.
김태형
No.
백여주
yes?
김태형
Ah, anyway, just...!
김태형
I'll do it!
백여주
...Uh, let's do that.
Although quite flustered, the female protagonist turned around tilting her head, as she was inwardly pleased with the proposal, and began to tidy up other things.
김태형
······.
김태형
...Ahem!
김태형
Uh... over there...
백여주
Huh? Why?
김태형
Is it usually like that...?
백여주
What?
김태형
N-no...
김태형
You know that thing, that!
백여주
What is that...?
He, unable to forget the moment the female lead stroked his head earlier, continues to replay the memory in his mind.
On the other hand, the person who actually patted the head doesn't remember.
김태형
Uh... this.
김태형
Pat pat...
As if embarrassed by what he had said, he bowed his head low as soon as he finished speaking and scrubbed the plate with detergent until it gleamed.
김태형
Are you just... acting like that towards other people...?
백여주
Pat pat...?
백여주
Ah, that one from earlier—?
Ah, just remembering, the female lead approaches him and looks up at him.
백여주
Why, did you like it?
김태형
···What?! I didn't say I liked it?!
백여주
You look happy...
백여주
Her cheeks also turned flushed-
백여주
You can't even meet my eyes!
김태형
Oh, I told you it wasn't...
백여주
That's right, why are you denying it!
김태형
...k, yo...
김태형
I have to do this.
Yeojuji chuckled, nodded as if finding it amusing, and returned to her seat to do her work.
김태형
Ugh...
Having finished the rather large amount of dishwashing, he drags his weary feet and slumps onto the sofa.
백여주
great job-.
김태형
···no···.
With his eyes tightly closed, he whispers in slurred speech as if he is sleepy.
The female lead, who would never let him get away, decided to sit on the floor and stare at him intently.
백여주
Are you sleepy?
김태형
···little...
백여주
I don't think it's just a little.
김태형
···I don't know···.
As a brief, cozy silence enveloped them, the sleepy one opened his mouth as if feeling awkward.
김태형
···My name,
김태형
You're curious, aren't you... heh
백여주
If I say I'm curious, will you tell me?
김태형
It's Kim Taehyung... heh
He whispered to the female lead in a sweet voice, with a smile on his lips.
And then, as if having fallen asleep, there were no more words.
백여주
······taehyoung kim...
백여주
That's a pretty name.
It is said that the smile on the corners of the mouth of the female protagonist, who had been stroking his sleeping hair for a while, never faded.
"······taehyoung kim..."
That's a pretty name.
Meanwhile, while he and the female lead were spending a quiet afternoon_
There were those secretly watching the two of them.
"...He seems to have adapted quite well to the human world."
???
Yeah, it seems so.
It was only the first day...
"I wonder... if I might come to know emotions."
???
You won't be able to find out that easily.
???
I'll just have to watch to see if you're doing well for the time being.
"You remember the things we agreed to keep among ourselves... right?"
???
What matters?
It is the clause stating that one must not harbor feelings for a human being.
???
······.
???
Well, it doesn't look like they have any intention of keeping it at all.
???
Look over there, their eyes are already different.
"...What?! Then we'll be in big trouble..."
???
Why, the two of them look good together.
Are you really asking because you don't know...?
???
Yeah, I don't know.
"...Phew, I'll explain later."
I'll head back now.
