Day by day, I took one step closer to Yeonho.
The moments of kissing Yeonho were lovely.
I enjoyed caressing his soft hair.
Unlike me, slightly sturdier, I loved touching his body.
I enjoyed leaving marks on his face and neck, as if marking him as mine.
Even while maintaining a nonchalant demeanor, he, subtly expecting my skinship, was adorable.
Yeonho, too, gradually engaged in more varied physical contact as I did, but he diligently maintained the ultimate boundary.
It was at times regrettable, yet also fun to enjoy our unique push-and-pull, different from the norm.
If I couldnt hold back and pounced on him, he would surely accept it despite feeling awkward.
I wished that he would touch me first.
To reach out first, even at the risk of contradicting his previous words.
Of course, even if I restrain myself, he would respect it.
Upon hearing that Yeonho's father and Yeonho's brother's girlfriend wanted to meet me, I immediately arranged a schedule to meet them.
Since summer vacation was drawing to a close, it wouldnt be easy to set a date if not now. Besides, my brother, worried about something, followed me, making an excuse about Yeonho.
Although I was worried that encountering Yeonho might stir strange emotions, I couldnt help it because I also wished for a friendly relationship between us.
So, at Yeonho's house where we went, Yeonho's father, whom I met for the first time, was extremely kind-hearted.
My two brothers visibly radiated stoic and jovial vibes, respectively.
Yoonjung unnie, the cause for today's meeting, was truly a cute and puppy-like person, according to Yeonho.
"Hello~! Youre Heena, right? I really wanted to see you! Yeonho, that cheeky guy, kept holding back~"
"Hello, unnie. Ive heard a lot about you from Yeonho."
"Oh, what should I do? I genuinely want to take you home...youre so pretty....want to be my little sister?"
Having enjoyed observing people in the past, I could tell from unnies atmosphere and tone that she really liked me.
Back then, meeting people other than Yeonho's parents was somewhat burdensome, so I hadnt done it, but I had heard they were planning a wedding. Perhaps the same will happen with Jeongwoo oppa this time, so I hoped that I would also get along with them.
After all, were really becoming a family.
Both Mom and Dad treated me comfortably as always, with Dad even saying to make myself at home.
"Yes, sir."
Perhaps he liked being called sir because he slightly blushed and coughed awkwardly, which didnt escape my notice.
Thankfully, in this life too, I could fit into both their hearts, which I was grateful for.
My brother was also happily chatting with Yeonho's older brothers. Later on, I resolved to create opportunities for our parents to meet each other as well.
With that in mind, I engaged in a conversation with Mom and Yoonjung unnie.
Mostly about Yeonho.
Especially, Yoonjung unnies stories were incredibly helpful to me and therefore very beneficial.
Because even Mom didnt know in detail about Yeonho's various tastes and dispositions that she knew so well.
Apparently, from the first time she saw him, Yeonho was too cute. When you see his pretty smiling face and kind impression, its inevitable.
So, sometimes she would call him out for dates, treat him to meals, and they would play games together, naturally getting to know little details about each other.
Listening to stories of hanging out with Yeonho during middle school, I secretly felt jealous.
I wished I could have met him from that time too. It would have been even better.
Sharing more trivial stories, I was able to hear some really crucial information.
"Yeonho has been more proactive... Do you think he, being a man, might like something sexy?"
"Sexy? Hmm.. I think that might not work with Yeonho. He really cant resist cute things."
I had enough evidence that he liked cute things when we went to the zoo, but his mom also added to that story.
"When Yeonho was little, he used to whine all day, wanting a little sister. Hed throw a fit, saying little kids passing by were cute."
"Right? Ah, Heena! I have animal pajamas I was going to wear, want to borrow them? I guarantee Yeonho will be thrilled."
"Is it okay if I borrow them?"
"Yes! Lets stop by my place later when we leave!"
Even though Id acted cute now and then, I'd never intentionally aimed to be adorable from the outset. However, I could do anything to get affection from Yeonho.
"Also, try establishing a concept when you date. He likes the little sister type so much...maybe something like a younger girlfriend vibe?"
"Like...calling him 'big brother'? Would that be okay?"
"Absolutely! This is just play! Doing stuff like this once in a while prevents the relationship from becoming stale~"
Saying so, Yoonjung unnie offered me another piece of advice.
"Also, try to charm him here tomorrow. I'll take those guys out somewhere. Mum and Dad wont be here either."
"Unnie, Ill be counting on you from now on."
"Mm-hmm! Tell me everything! Unnie will help you!"
Unnie, patting her chest as she said this, appeared not so much reliable as utterly adorable. However, I swallowed that thought and expressed my gratitude instead.
It really felt like we could become very close.
We continued our conversation for a little longer, then, after seeking Yeonhos understanding, I decided to head back early with unnie.
Parting like this today was regrettable, but I wanted to seize an opportunity on the last date of the summer vacation.

Although I had an extra day, for Yeonho, it was the last wisp of summer vacation.
We've had countless dates thus far, but today, my heart fluttered a bit more as I headed to our meeting place.
In order to show a different side than usual, I began the concept that my sister and I agonized over and created yesterday.
As soon as I approached Yeonho, who had been waiting, I started right away.
"Yeonho oppa."
I raised my voice slightly, as if Yeonho really was an older boyfriend.
Yeonho seemed quite taken aback by my address, but...
"What's different about it? Let's do it! Doing this kind of thing once in a while is alright!"
His joy was overtly visible in his words and expression.
Although a smile emerged on the face where the corners of his mouth were lifted, I also felt a surge of jealousy toward myself at the same time.
Isnt he liking this a bit too much?
I thought it was a good thing that I was trying this now, as my sister had said.
Because someday, a truly cute girl might cling to Yeonho, and by doing this, I would build up his immunity.
And also, I thought that I should never allow such girls near Yeonho, at least under ordinary circumstances.
Of course, such feelings are feelings after all.
"Oppa, arent you going to kiss me..?"
"Phew, Lee Heena, you're really pushing it."
Seeing his form, rushing toward me as if he couldnt resist the cuteness I was portraying, satisfaction filled my heart.
Though it was a bit embarrassing.
Entering the cinema with him, I pondered what to watch.
Regardless, the purpose of coming here was specific, so it didnt matter what we watched. Still, not wanting to waste money by choosing too randomly, I thought it through.
Todays mood called for a lively, romantic comedy. It seemed to fit the atmosphere of what we were about to do, and Han Yeonho probably wouldn't find it boring either.
Of course, Yeonho would have enjoyed whatever was chosen.
'A movie? Anything is fine.'
'Just don't complain later. I'm choosing, okay?'
'Yes, I like anything.'
During our frequent movie dates in college, he genuinely enjoyed any film we watched.
'Its important who you come to watch a movie with.'
'Hmm~ Everything is fun with me?'
'Of course.'
Well, undoubtedly Yeonho will enjoy any movie right now.
Whether the movies were genuinely interesting, or whether the moments when we sat side by side in the cinema, whispering and laughing were more delightful, Ill never be able to ask now.
Suddenly remembering those sweet memories, I tucked them away into a corner of my mind. After completing the ticket purchase, I picked a piece of popcorn from the box he bought.
"Ah-"
-Tap tap. Pushing the popcorn toward his mouth and gently tapping around it with my fingers, he, realizing the intention, approached me.
But instead of directly giving it, I turned my face slightly and playfully, feeling his lips at the corner of my mouth.
In that moment, the impulsive desire to swallow the popcorn and kiss him rose, but I barely restrained it.
"Hehehe-"
Then, I wrapped my arm around his neck, transferring the popcorn from my mouth to his.
I beamed at the way he accepted it like a baby bird.
"Do you dislike me playing tricks, Oppa?"
"I like it.."
It was a bit complicated to see Yeonho enjoying my current cute concept so much.
However, seeing Yeonho, who shows such an adorable reaction while looking at me, I thought, what does it matter?
Thus, while walking and occasionally feeding him popcorn mouth-to-mouth, as we entered the theater, I said.
"Oppa."
"Will you stroke my hair?"
Usually, when we're together, wanting to touch him more and more often, my touches would come with a hope that he would hold onto them deeply.
There were many instances of subtle physical touch, but today, I decided to push forward with cuteness instead.
Because he likes it so much.
Because he caresses my hair with such tenderness.

As soon as the movie ended, at his place,
I wanted to watch him play the game.
Sometimes, even though my messages were delayed because of it, it was a game that Yeonho really enjoyed.
Not just observing it, I sat together with him in the chair he always uses.
Nestling between his legs, he wrapped his arms around my waist, and I couldnt have been happier.
My whole body felt enveloped by him.
"It's nice sitting like this."
"Yeah?"
"Yeah. I love feeling so close to you."
My unabashed sincerity.
If only I could do this forever.
But not being able to gaze at his face was a regret, so I subtly turned and kissed him.
Then, repositioning myself,
"Well, I'm uncomfortable. Let's stand up for a bit. I want to do more."
The fact that I had made him impatient filled me with joy. I prevented him from getting up, lifting me with his rising frame.
Not right away, but a bit later, I mustered all my strength to resist the spot, yearning for him to want me strongly enough that he couldnt bear it, without hugging me tight and kissing me first.
After a brief moment of struggling with each other, he eventually gave up or so it seemed, as Yeonho started focusing on his game. Thanks to that, I once again savored the happiness in his arms.
In the meantime, I even felt a shameful jealousy towards him, who only used cute characters.
Truly, his taste for cute things was clearly revealed in every single one of these little things.
I was jealous of his taste for such types rather than the characters.
"Am I cute, or are they cute?"
"How can I make you believe me?"
"Kiss me."
"As much as I love you."
Using that as an excuse, I eventually seized him from my side and kissed him. I wanted to deliver a passionate kiss, something I hadnt been able to do all day and which was almost frustration.
Even so, I was satisfied with just his lips, not wanting to break the concept we'd maintained so far.
Then, during a brief conversation with him, I remembered the clothes I borrowed from my sister.
Considering Yeonhos reactions today, he was sure to like them.
"Can you wait a moment? I brought something."

After going to the living room with my bag, I wore thin cat pajamas over my clothes.
From the hood to the tail, they were incredibly cute, even to me.
Already feeling my face turn red at the thought of showing myself in them and imitating a cat, I braved it and went back into the room because I knew Yeonho would definitely like it and be delighted.
Seeing my outfit, Yeonho was startled and froze.
"Meow-"
I let out a cat cry, then quickly sat back between Yeonhos legs.
I couldnt bear to face him. I was too embarrassed.
"So cute I think I might go crazy."
Still, I had worn it to hear those words from Yeonho, after all.
Could it be possible that, with this much effort, I might someday change Yeonho's desire to raise a cat?
Harboring such thoughts, I pose the question to Yeonho, to which he responds with playful jest.
"It seems like what we have here isnt a cat, considering it speaks human language so well."
Although I knew he was teasing me, I couldnt help but engage.
I wanted him to say I was cuter than a cat.
"Uh-uh... Meow, meow..."
Mustering courage and mimicking a cats meow again, he smiles and tenderly tickles my chin.
Just like how one would treat an actual cat.
In the wake of his soft touch, I even harbored thoughts that living as a cat might not be too bad if it meant enjoying moments like these.
"Cute, so cute~"
I adore it so much.
For a while, I basked in that cuteness. However, after taking a sip of the water Han Yeonho handed me, I snapped back to reality.
All the actions I had taken until now suddenly transformed into a massive wave of embarrassment that washed over me.
Unable to continue speaking and with my face turning red, Yeonho gradually initiated a conversation, hinting that it was time to end our playful act.
Gratefully accepting his consideration, we decided to conclude todays playful act of being a doting girlfriend.
And then,
"I know. But it was nice, right?"
"Like I said earlier, only because you did it for me."
Sitting side by side on the bed, we exchanged our thoughts on todays date. In the middle of our conversation, Yeonho unexpectedly leaned on my arm.
While he often took my hand first, leaning on my arm was a rare occurrence. Usually, I was the one to initiate such physical affection.
Regardless, I was happy that Yeonho was showing skinship, so I clung to him even more.
"Heena noona."
He spoke words that made me doubt my own ears.
Even before returning to high school, and even after dating once he was a high school student.
I always thought I gave him the impression of being older than him, but...
"Noona, why are you so cute?"
Hearing this respectful address and title from him was something I had never even imagined.
I didnt know how to describe this indescribable feeling to him.
"How can you be this cute? I'm scared someone might snatch you away."
Yeonho kept saying such things without a break.
Almost as if my reaction was extremely amusing to him.
He didnt stop there and eventually,
"Noona, please kiss me."
Feeling my rationale snap at the sight of Yeonho, who spoke those words while bending over slightly and gently looking up at me.
I wondered how much I had restrained myself until now.
How many times a day I wanted to push him down and kiss him.
To him, who seemed to genuinely know nothing and joked like that,
"You really dont know how much Ive been holding back, do you?"
"From now on, noona will do everything, so just stay still. Got it?"
I couldn't restrain my desires any longer.
While I did intend to maintain the boundary he wanted,
"Noona says listen, okay? Your mouth."
Apart from that, you brought this upon yourself, you know that, right, Yeonho?
"Uhm"
Sitting astride him, I assertively demanded, making him open his mouth, and then thrust my tongue inside.
His lips.
His teeth.
His tongue.
His saliva.
I indulged in all of it as much as I wanted, the way I wanted.
Sucking in his impudent tongue.
Leaving bite marks on his adorable lips.
Pressing my lips to his mouth and his pristine neck.
Just like that, as if I would devour him.
I indulged in him to my heart's content.
For much longer than I thought.
Honestly, I wanted to do it for even longer, but considering Yeonho seemed to be struggling, I stopped there.
Feeling a bit regretful at the sight of him, who went to the bathroom for a moment to erase my traces and came back.
In the end, our last date of the summer vacation ended without maintaining the cuteness till the end.
I was content, though.
Because, there will be another opportunity next time.
Days like this will happen for as long as I am alive.
