Dresses with cute frills, colorful skirts, and T-shirts with cute characters on them.

The children’s clothing store I visited for the first time in my life had a cute and shiny atmosphere.

“Welcome. Did you come to see children’s clothes?”

A lady welcomed us with a business smile.

“Yes. We’re going to look for this girl’s clothes.”

“Oh, dear….! You must be from abroad. What a pretty princess..! How old are you.?”

The lady said in admiration of Speranza’s exotic and cute appearance.

However, the lady’s too intimate approach seemed burdensome to Speranza.

She clung to me and cried.

“Papa…”

“It’s okay, Speranza. I’m sorry, this child is a little shy.”

“Oh. I’m sorry. I was a little excited because the child is so cute. I’ll be over there, so feel free to look around. If you have any questions or needs, feel free to call me.”

Thankfully, the lady kept a distance and allowed us to look around comfortably.

I bowed slightly to the lady and began to look around the store in earnest.

Yerin began to choose clothes excitedly as if she was buying her own clothes, while my mother carefully examined each one of them.

As I was standing still without doing anything, I sneaked a look at the clothes, and naturally, the price tag caught my eye.

‘Why is it so expensive?’

‘Does it make sense. Why is the price this higher?’

When I became an adult, things were not good at our home.

So when I bought clothes, I always thought a lot about the cost-effectiveness and functionality rather than thinking about fashion or style.

Things have improved a lot now, but I still haven’t been able to get out of the thoughts of difficult times.

Amid the shock of children’s clothing prices, Yerin and my mother appeared with Speranza from the changing room.

“Tda..! Sihyeon, what do you think?”

Speranza, wearing a lavender-colored dress, gently approached me.

The fluttering bright frill and Speranza’s silver hair  went very well together.

I just stared blankly at the unrealistic cuteness that seemed to pop out of a baby fashion magazine.

“Oh, you’re a slow-witted father. You have to give her a quick review.”

“Uh…… Huh? Huh? It’s pretty. It’s so pretty. It’s really pretty.”

Yerin looked at me pitifully as I kept repeating same words foolishly, perhaps because my brain’s language function was paralyzed for a moment.

“Hehe……”

It was a compliment that I thought was not at all sensible, but Speranza twisted her body shyly and made a happy face.

Starting with a lavender-colored dress, Speranza showed off her unique cuteness by changing different clothes one by one.

I tried to control myself as much as I could because I didn’t want to look like a fool, but whenever Speranza got changed into a new outfit, without knowing, the corners of my mouth went up.

At first, Yerin led the coordination of clothes, but later, the store lady sneaked in and recommended clothes.

Speranza showed fatal cuteness in every clothes she wore, making people around her admire her.

“I think the outfit she’s wearing now is the prettiest!”

“Look at that girl, Isn’t she cute.”

“Is she a model from abroad?”

“That dress looks good. Isn’t it.?”

Speranza’s irresistible charm drew more and more people to the store.

It was like a fashion show.

The store lady did not miss this opportunity and naturally recommended the clothes Speranza wore to the customers who visited.

Customers who have already fallen into Speranza’s charm showed interest in the clothes without even realizing it, and even people who purchased them started emerging.

We decided to pay for the clothes we liked before it got more crowded.

There were so many pretty and matching items that clothes piled up on the checkout counter.

Every time a piece of clothing was placed, the amount kept increasing on the cashier’s screen.

Yerin, who was watching the scene from behind, sneaked up and whispered.

“Are you okay?”

“What?”

“You looked a little surprised while looking at the price tag earlier…”

“Ah. If you saw that, pretend you didn’t see it. It feels a little embarrassing….”

“I’m sorry. I was planning on helping you secretly if you felt any pressure. I might get some points from Speranza.”

“ Hahaha I’m fine. I’m making enough money for using at times like this.”

“Oh! Sihyeon is kinda cool.”

“Hahahah…how can I be cool while wearing…..”

“…………?”

I was going to say something, but I closed my mouth.

Yerin looked at me strangely, but she didn’t say anything and just swallowed her words.

Even though I was dressed like a beggar, I wanted Speranza to dress pretty.

I want Speranza to enjoy things I never had chance to, but it could be a dagger to my mother standing next to her.

So I had no choice but to shut up in a hurry.

However, a child could never deceive his parents.

My mother looked back at me with an expression of knowing everything.

My mother’s eyes, mixed with sorry and pride, scratched her back hair and avoided eye contact.

When I was done paying for the clothes. Speranza hugged my legs tightly.

She looked up at me lovingly in her new lavender dress.

“Papa… New clothes… Thank you.”

A soft smile bloomed on her face.

I spent a lot more money than I thought, but Speranza’s bright smile felt much more valuable than that, making my heart full.

After we were done shopping for Speranza’s, we left the clothing store and moved to a place selling daily necessities.

There, my mother chose spoons and bowls to use at home with the children.

“Grandma… This.”

“Does Speranza like this?”

“Yes.”

“I like this colorful bowl, Popi”

– Poo-woo woooo.

Speranza chose a bowl and spoon with a cute cat character on it, Gyuri chose a small and colorful glass bowl, and Akum chose a large and spacious plastic bowl.

While the children were watching the tableware, I looked around to see if there was anything needed for the farm.

Last time Andras seemed to want to use my ballpoint pen, maybe I should buy enough at this opportunity.

‘Oh! These kitchen gloves are cute.’

‘Hmm… Should I buy a set of cooking utensils?’

While looking around, I noticed an area with camping equipment.

Without realizing, I thought of camping leisurely in a place with good air and scenery in the Demon world.

‘Camping… I don’t think it’ll be a bad hobby.’

I glanced around at the equipment.

Equipment with simple and sophisticated design caught my eye.

I haven’t made a specific plan yet, but I just had a desire to purchase the equipment.

“Papa…!”

“What’s wrong, Speranza?”

“Grandma is calling.”

“Oh… I see. Let’s go together.”

Putting aside the lingering gaze toward camping equipment, I grabbed Speranza’s hand and headed to my mother’s place.

My mother was waiting for us with a stroller carrying Akum.

“Huh? Mom… Where’s Yerin ? I can’t see Gyuri either.”

“I don’t know either. I was just looking at the bowl and the cup together Speranza and Akum.”

“Wait a minute. I’ll be right back.”

I left Speranza and Akum to my mother and went out to find Yerin and Gyuri alone.

‘How far did they go?’

‘Should I call Yerin?’

I couldn’t find the two of them nearby, so I tried to take out my cell phone, but suddenly, I heard a noise at a nearby children’s toy store.

At the center of the commotion, I found Yerin.

I don’t know why, but she was surrounded by children.

As I approached, I could hear the conversation between Yerin and the children.

“Are you sure? Are you really a Magical girl?”

“……..?”

“Of course! I’m the Magical girl who defeats villains in the name of justice.”

“Isn’t sister a little too old for doing that.”

Yerin’s eyes were slightly shaken by a boy’s pure fact assault.

However, she quickly regained her composure and replied.

“Well, I’m only a little older, but still I was allowed to be a Magical girl.”

“Then try to transform. Transform!  Transform!”

“There are so many people here, so I can’t do that. Instead, let me introduce you to my partner. Come on out, my partner!”

Gyuri popped up in response to Yerin’s call.

“ Hello! I’m the partner of the Magical girl popi.”

“Wow!”

“It’s a fairy!”

The children cheered looking at the real fairy.

As if she liked the children’s reaction, Gyuri flew around the children and sprinkled sparkling fairy powder everywhere.

“Wow…”

It was amazing in so many ways.

I watched their skit with a ridiculous expression.

I thought I shouldn’t leave the two alone anymore, so I stepped forward.

“Hey, what are you doing with the kids?”

“Oh! Guys, it’s the villain who came to get me and my partner. Help me!”

“…?”

“Let’s defeat the bad villain!”

“Woooooooooo”

The children who believed in the skit of Yerin suddenly started rushing towards me.

Naturally, I couldn’t touch the children, so I had no choice but to get defeated.

The children let me go by shouting

“Hurrah….. victory”

After a sensible performance of falling down.

It was not until long after a store employee appeared and helped me get up.

When I asked why he came out so late, he said, he thought it was some kind of a toy advertisement event at first.

Fortunately, the response of the parents watching around me was not bad, so the store staff rather thanked Yerin and me.

“Hahaha, it was fun, wasn’t it, Gyuri?”

“Yeah, it was fun popi.”

“Sihyeon, how was my Magical girl acting?””

Yerin asked me with a sly smile.

I shook my head and answered with a fed-up look.

“Well…. I felt embarrassed. Aren’t you embarrassed while acting like that in front of a crowd.?”

“Well? Maybe it’s because I sometimes play in front of the children as a volunteer, I’m used to it.”

“Wow… Do you do volunteer work?”

I asked Yerin again, looking a little surprised.

Yerin waved her hand in embarrassment.

“It’s something we do as a group sometimes in the guild. Sometimes.”

“It’s great….You are doing volunteer work, additional to the busy work.”

“What do you mean great? It’s nothing…It’s normal.”

I was surprised to see an unexpected side of Yerin who was slightly embarrassed.

The next place I went with the children was the food store.

Many products on the endless wide shelves dazzled the children.

“Wow… Papa, over there! There!”

“Sihyeon! Sihyeon! That looks so delicious, popi”

Speranza led my hand excitedly, and Gyuri kept whispering in my ear.

I had to sweat hard to calm down the children who were pulling me all over with curiosity.

First of all, I put the items that I had to buy for the farm members in my cart.

Shower supplies for Lia and Alfred, supplies lacking in the kitchen, food and seasonings needed to cook.

While I was picking the items I had taken notes of in advance to the cart, Yerin was diligently walking around the tasting corner with the children.

“Sihyeon! Come here and try this.”

“What is it?”

“The pork chops, it’s really good.”

“Papa. Here.”

Speranza picked up a piece of meat from the tasting section and held it out to me.

The savory and soft texture of the well-cooked meat was felt.

As always, it stimulated my appetite with the tantalizing amount unique to the tasting section.

The lady at the tasting section soon started selling it to me.

“The child eats meat so deliciously. Isn’t it really refreshing to have meat today.? How about buying it for the children.”

Come to think of it, it’s been a long time since I grilled meat at home.

I was busy with work, and I had little chance to grill meat at home since I was alone with my mother.

Since there is children today, I want to grill meat for the first time in a while.

“Mom, it’s been a while since we had meat at home. How about having today.?”

“I’d love to.”

“Do you want to eat with us Yerin?”

“Of course I do. Hehe!”

My mother took Yerin and the children to the meat section to look at the meat.

I took Akum, who was a little frustrated, and went to buy vegetables to eat with meat.

Lettuce, perilla leaves, garlic, mushrooms.

I looked at vegetables that would go well with the meat.

Akum flinched and suddenly kicked out of the stroller.

“Ah! Akum!”

I was so surprised that I left the stroller and vegetables behind me.

The place where I finally found the naughty baby Yakum was, a place where fruits were gathered and sold.

Akum sat in front of the counter and looked at the fruits with sparkling eyes.

It’s natural that Akum catches the attention of people around him with his cute and unique appearance.

A male employee in his 20s who was guarding the fruit stand looked down at him.

Arriving late, I hurriedly hugged Akum and apologized to the staff.

“I’m sorry. He was in the pet stroller, but suddenly jumped out… I’m sorry.”

“No, it’s okay. By the way.. He’s a very cute pet. Is he like a rare companion animal?”

“Oh… Yes, kind of similar.”

While I was speaking to the staff, Akum kept looking at the fruit stand with a mournful look.

When I was wondering what to do…

The male staff who saw this handed a cherry tomato to Akum.

“Here. Do you want one?”

“You don’t have to do that…” “

“It’s okay since it’s for tasting.”

Akum accepted the cherry tomatoes handed over by the male staff with a sparkle in his eyes.

And he carefully took the cherry tomatoes to his mouth with his two front feet.

After tasting cherry tomatoes, Akum made a happy cry.

Then, he waved his front feet to the male staff and thanked him in his own way.

“Wow! He’s a really smart guy. Can I pat him?”

“Yes.”

When the male staff carefully patted his head, Akum once again made a pleasant cry.

Pow wo wooo

Before I knew it, people who were fascinated by the cuteness of the baby Yakum gathered around.

Everyone brought their own fruits one by one and began offering them to Akum.

“Do you want to try this?”

“ Ahhhhhh……He is so cute!”

“Can I take a picture?”

“Can I have a hug?””

Apples, oranges, cherries, kiwis, etc. … Not only from employees but also from customers who visited the store handed the fruits to Akum.

Later, the store manager cleared up the situation, which ended the fruit tasting procession for Akum.

“Wow… Akum. You won’t starve anywhere.”

After tasting the sweet fruits to his heart’s content, Akum looked so happy.

After a long shopping experience, we returned to Yerin’s car with a large amount of shopping bags.

Perhaps because of the excitement of going around and having new experiences, the children with endless physical strength seemed a little tired.

Yerin looked around the back seat and said before starting the car.

“Children, did you have fun today?””

“Un, it was fun!”

“I want to hurry back to the village and brag about it to my friends popi.”

Pow woooooo

Yerin looked satisfied with the children’s enthusiastic response, and my mother also smiled warmly.

I also looked at the children with a calm smile.

Even though it was a little hectic and tiring, I was able to make good memories with the children.

It seemed to be a rewarding and meaningful holiday for the first time in a long time.
