Chapter 5 (2/2)

I then pouted my lips. Valdwin eventually raised his hands.

“… What do you want?”

You’re such a cute child. Noona doesn’t want much. Would you come over here?

∘₊✧──────✧₊∘

“Is this your wish?”

The proud cat looked at me and I smiled sweetly at him. He’s getting prettier. I also put on a yellow pin that matched his yellow dress, and applied a pretty lipstick that I slipped from my mother’s dressing table.

I did my best even though my fingers were still short and clumsy. I didn’t make the same mistake of draping the dress loosely on him like before, but was tightly tied by a ribbon.

Fufu, you’re such a pretty male lead. My fan spirit is boiling. The dresses Valdwin usually wore were also pretty, but I cannot dress him up glamorously due to his status as the nanny’s daughter. Dressed up to my liking, Valdwin was so cute and lovable that my nose bled.

“Yes! This is Lala’s wish! Didi is so pretty.”

I wondered if dressing up Valdwin was fan service for me. Every day is exciting! This is the best!

Valdwin sighed deeply as my eyes twinkled.

“If Lala likes it… then I like it too.”

How can you speak beautifully? Are you saying that being pretty with such a rough personality like this is a big deal? Unbelievable.

The original novel started after the main characters had already established themselves. The three of them must have been around 15 years old at that time. In any case, Valdwin was following his set standards of indifference, being feisty, and being a tsundere.

Is he the type of the Prince in my dreams who is indifferent to everyone but is only kind to his woman? Well, the cold Northern Grand Duke is more suitable than him.

I thought that everything would be a pity. Given Valdwin’s personality, I would be out when that time comes. It feels like sending a son who I raised with so much care.

No, my own Prince might also appear at that time.

As I was circling Valdwin while admiring my work, Mom opened the door widely.

“Lala, Didi. Why were you quiet? Let’s go to today’s brunch – ”

What, is it today? So, today is the day I will meet the female lead! How in the world can there be no tension like this? I didn’t even know because Mom didn’t notify me.

Silent for a while, Mom looked at me then to Valdwin, before she blew out.

“Lala!!!!”

“Yes?”

“What did you do to Didi!!! Clothes aside, his face is a mess!”

“I didn’t do anything. Didi is pretty!”

I proudly boasted of my masterpiece. Valdwin circled the room with a proud expression on his face, as I told him earlier.

However, my mom’s thoughts were different from mine, as her forehead frowned and heaved a deep sigh.

“Why must it be a day like today… Lala, what did mom tell you! I said you shouldn’t touch my cosmetics! I won’t give you a present if you keep on doing this!”

That’s true. It’s a shame I still have a month before my birthday. My mom caught me in a hurry.

“Lala, hit! Hit! Will you keep on not listening to me?”

Is this real? Wow, this is my first time. I was humiliated by being slapped in my butt like this, but I was an adult who had already lived for over 30 years in my past life plus this life. I shouldn’t cry like th(is) –

“Uu, uuwaaaah! I-I hate Mom!!!”

… This was really irresistible.

There was silence in the dressing room when I burst into tears, who usually wouldn’t cry. Valdwin looked at me with a bewildered expression, and mom paused with her raised hands.

“O-oh? Lala, did Mom hit you hard? I didn’t, though…. Lala, I’m sorry, hmm?”

Surprised, my mother hugged me. Valdwin wiped my face with a hand full of cosmetics.

“Don’t cry, Lala. Drop!”

“Uuuh…. I-I hate you mom!”

“I heard you’ll get horns in your butt if you cry. That Mister Goblin will catch you.”

“Hic! Uuuwaaah…. Uuwah, das wat I tod yu!” (That’s what I said!)

There was a hesitant look on Valdwin’s face as he randomly wiped my face.

What is it?

Then Valdwin cocked his head and kissed my cheek.
