My Platinum-Blond Childhood Friend Is So Pretty - Chapter 156

156 – 67. Amelia’s First Childhood Friend, Chaerin -2

The way Chaerin was smiling eerily, looking at my daughter like a predator eyeing its prey, was like a family member’s child.

The atmosphere around Chaerin, who was four years old but overflowing with desire, was scary.

And yet…

‘…Our Amy is too cute.’

I felt a sense of sympathy.

I sympathized with her.

Honestly, I wasn’t any different back then.

When I was five years old, I followed Ellie around like a zombie because Ellie seemed like a princess.

In other words, I was captivated by her beauty, just like a princess. Of course, I was also drawn to her bold personality and her unique features, which were like something out of a Disney animation.

And it wasn’t just me.

Our best friend, Lee So-yeon, was also captivated by Ellie’s face and became friends with her.

So…

“Cute…”

“…….”

My daughter’s childhood friend was gazing at her sleeping face with an entranced expression.

I pretended not to see it and turned around, as if nothing had happened. I went to the restroom and then returned to the bedroom.

And I lay on the bed, covering myself with a blanket, and hugged Eli, who was slightly curled up.

At that moment, Eli snuggled into my arms and whispered.

“Hmm… Where did you go?”

“I just went to the bathroom for a bit.”

“Are you not feeling well inside? You took a long time…”

“No, I just went to check on the kids and make sure they’re sleeping well.”

“The kids… How were they?”

“What… They were sleeping peacefully.”

“Okay…”

Eli asked, slightly opening her eyes, as if she was worried that the kids might be crying because they missed their mom and dad. And after listening to my response, she seemed to relax and closed her eyes again.

Her considerate and affectionate demeanor touched my heart.

So I decided to give her some praise.

-Pat, pat

I patted Eli’s buttocks.

Not her back, but her buttocks.

As a model, she was meticulous about her body, and she regularly did Pilates and exercised to maintain her figure.

Thanks to that, her buttocks were still firm and springy.

“Hehe…”

I enjoyed the elasticity and softness of her skin through her pajamas as I patted her, and Eli’s lips slightly curved upwards.

-Squeak

At the same time, Eli’s leg slipped between my thighs.

She wasn’t trying to seduce me in her sleep; she was just snuggling up close.

I gazed at her face, taking in her puppy-like gestures.

“She’s really pretty, isn’t she?”

Her small nose and lips, which were still rosy even without makeup, were lovely, and I couldn’t get tired of looking at them.

And her platinum-colored eyebrows and long eyelashes were just….

Hmm.

I couldn’t resist.

-Swoop… Mwah

“Ahh… You suddenly… Hmm… Oh…”

I slipped my hand inside her pajamas and grasped her firm buttocks, and kissed her captivating lips.

I wasn’t going to finish it since we had kids, but I just wanted to indulge in some sensual skinship.

Eli, who was surprised by my sudden action, soon smiled and responded to my kiss.

She puckered up and intertwined our tongues.

-Swoop…

I put my hand inside my T-shirt and stroked my back, and then…

-Rumble

I started to massage my buttocks as well.

Finally.

“Haah… Is this a vacation starting from today? Husband. Take off your pants.”

Ellie became a beast and jumped on top of me. Her bright blue eyes sparkled, and it seemed like she had completely woken up.

“No, I just wanted to kiss you a bit… Chae-rin is here too.”

“I’ll cover your mouth, so it’s okay. Just get under…”

-Kwakak

“Hueng~?”

“Uk…”

“Are you already ready?”

“That’s…”

-Sleek… Flash!

“Shall we eat breakfast with our husband for the first time in a while?”

“……”

“Answer.”

“Yes…”

We entwined our bodies just like that. It was impossible to stop at just a kiss and make Ellie excited.

It might be a bit dangerous, but…

Since Amelia had a separate room with soundproofing, it would be okay.

***

And then, morning.

Or, perhaps lunch.

I had overslept.

I couldn’t help but oversleep.

My wife, who was full of energy, had devoured me just as my vacation started and before I could recover my strength.

I got out of bed, still a bit dazed, unable to even tell what time it was.

“Oh no, I need to put on my pants…”

If it were just Ellie and Amelia, it wouldn’t matter, but I couldn’t show them my underwear-only self in someone else’s precious daughter’s house, so I put on my shorts.

-Dalkok

As I left the room.

“Pappa! Mom! Dad’s awake!”

“Good morning.”

“Dad’s awake? Emi, go tell Dad off. What’s with sleeping in so late?”

“Daad! What’s with sleeping in so late! You’re a sleepyhead!”

“Sorry, Emi. What time is it now?”

“Hmm… nine… ten… eleven!”

“Our Emi is good at telling time, isn’t she~”

Whoa… eleven o’clock. I did wake up a bit late.

To be honest, it’s not that I’m weird, but Ellie, who only slept for two or three hours, is amazing.

Breakfast was probably already over, and they must have eaten without me. The house was filled with the sweet aroma of cocoa being made for the kids.

And in front of me, the living room was a mess with blocks, picture books, and doll playsets scattered all over the place.

Among them, Amelia and Chaelin were sitting.

As I gazed at this cozy scene, I plopped myself down on the soft couch.

“Amelia is the princess, so this is Amelia’s house!”

“I’ll be the princess’s next-door neighbor…”

“Then we can play together with Chaelin every day!”

“Every day… yeah… heh heh…”

“…….”

Amelia, who had momentarily caught her father’s attention, soon became engrossed in playing with her friend.

Meanwhile, Chaelin, sitting beside Amelia, was showing a sly smile similar to the one from last night.

I watched the two of them playing, my eyes half-open, rubbing my neck.

This still seems a bit dangerous…

Ah, I don’t know.

The kids are cute, so it’s fine, whatever.

***

Around 12 pm, Jungwoo hyung and Bini noona called to say they would be a bit late.

Thanks to that, Chaelin ended up having lunch at our place.

Today’s lunch menu consisted of Chaelin’s favorite fish and rolled eggs, accompanied by spinach, bell peppers, and other green vegetables, and small, kid-friendly rice balls.

The fish, of course, had been carefully deboned, leaving only the fish meat.

I helped Eli prepare this, diligently deboning the fish. We couldn’t let the kids get hurt by the bones, so we did our best.

And so, mealtime began.

“Chaelin, is it delicious?”

“Munch munch… yeah… it’s delicious…”

“Chaelin is eating the bell peppers too, great job! You have to chew slowly and carefully, okay?”

Thanks to Eli’s excellent cooking skills, Chaelin was eating enthusiastically, her small mouth constantly moving.

She was eating everything, from the spinach to the bell peppers, one bite at a time.

Although she wasn’t yet proficient with using a fork and spoon, Eli was helping her eat from the side.

And I was sitting beside Amelia, helping her eat…

“Munch munch…”

“Hey, Amy, you’re eating well too~ Why don’t you try the spinach this time?”

“Gulp… spinach?”

“Spinach.”

“Amelia wants to eat fish!”

Amelia would eat other vegetables, but she was reluctant to eat the green spinach or bell peppers.

She would smile brightly and pick out what she wanted to eat with her fork and spoon, her cute little face.

Although she was cute, as a father, I couldn’t just let her pick and choose her food so drastically.

“Amy, didn’t you say you wanted to grow up to be pretty like Mommy? You have to eat spinach and bell peppers to grow up strong like Mommy.”

“Hmm…”

“Let’s try to eat it just once? If you finish it all, Daddy will read you your favorite fairy tale later.”

“Fairy tale…”

Amelia’s eyes rolled slightly as she hesitated, but it didn’t seem like she was very convinced.

-Puff

Before long, Amelia poked the spinach with the fork part of her spoon.

“Yes, yes…”

I watched as she hesitated, hoping the spinach would go into her mouth.

Amelia said,

“Pappa.”

“What?”

“Ahh~!”

“Ego…”

She smiled brightly and held out the spoon with the spinach.

She wanted her dad to eat it.

Although she had lost her energy, it wasn’t like Amelia’s pickiness was a one-time thing. When she was younger, she would eat whatever was given to her, but as time went on, she started to become more finicky.

“I don’t like spinach and bell peppers. Dad, eat them!”

Amelia was even more confident.

“What if I give it to Dad? It’s Emmy’s side dish!”

“You’re a princess, so it’s okay! Dad is a knight, so he’ll eat it!”

“Is it okay for Emmy to be picky because she’s a princess?”

“Yes! Ah~”

“Well… Ah.”

I had no choice but to eat Amelia’s spinach. Honestly, I don’t think it’s a big deal for kids to be picky eaters.

In the past, it might have been a problem, but nowadays, I think health is 90% genetic.

So, I didn’t force her to eat it and just ate it myself.

“Emmy, what if you give that to Dad? Your husband will accept it too. Didn’t you promise Mom not to do that before?”

As expected, I got scolded by Eli.

“I was wrong…”

“Were you wrong? Then eat just one bell pepper. Come on, Emmy. Bell pepper.”

“Yes…”

Amelia, who got scolded by her mom, looked sulky and reluctantly poked the bell pepper.

She brought it close to her mouth, but couldn’t bring herself to eat it. Amelia scrunched up her face.

“Ugh…”

Her reluctance to eat was written all over her face.

Would she eat it or not?

I was curious about the outcome, so I watched her with interest.

Amelia thought for about a minute, and then…

“…Chaelin likes bell peppers! Chaelin! Ah~”

In the end, she ran away.

The picky princess handed the spoon with the bell pepper to her childhood friend sitting on her left.

Chaelin, on the other hand, opened her mouth wide and received it with a delighted expression.

“Mmmph.”

She ate it with relish, her happy smile making her look very pleased.

“Mmm, delicious!”

“Umm… yeah… hehe… I’ll eat more… I want to eat more.”

“Okay!”

“What’s with ‘okay’? Amelia, are you going to get scolded by mom?”

“Mom will say ‘oh, Amelia, I’ll give you piman’!”

“You’re really… cook…”

Even though she was sulking after getting scolded, Amelia didn’t back down and instead used her cuteness to overcome the situation.

Ellie eventually burst out laughing. It was a frequent occurrence where Amelia’s adorable antics made it impossible to scold her properly.

“Anyway… who do you take after to be so picky?”

“That’s what I’m saying.”

“What do you mean ‘that’s what I’m saying’? You take after your husband, don’t you?”

“I didn’t used to be picky…”

“You didn’t, but you ate what I gave you, so it’s not like you don’t like it.”

“Doesn’t it count since you ate it?”

“That’s true. Amy doesn’t even think about eating, so it’s worrying…”

“A…”

“Chaelin, stop making that face like a baby bird. Don’t even think about feeding Amy piman.”

“…Okay…”

Chaelin looked sulky when told not to feed her vegetables.

Should I call this cute or indulgent?

I really don’t know.
