"Aww…hush hush cute little baby, daddy mommy are here, don't worry…"
...
AI: ...😏
What?
That was not me.
AI: No, I'm more interested to — why're you here? 😏
Seriously? 😒
AI: Come on, don't tell me you need to come over someone's home just for a jacket. 😌
...
This morning, surprisingly three juniors came during the class.
They came in with a sign board and one of them with papers and files started to brief us on something.
That was completely fine to me, because they're just here to propagate the upcoming sports day event — until I saw the familiar ponytail…💀
She waved at me while I raised my hand to respond politely.
That was completely fine to me as well, but then — everyone was looking at me. 💀💀💀
She pointed at the board while looking at me, while I shook my head and waved my hand telling her I'm not participating.
Cindy: Ahem—! Pay attention.
It was also completely fine to tell me to pay attention, but why do you need to kick me??? 😭😭😭
Me: Okay.
After the briefing was over, Lydia pointed at the door telling me to go out for a moment.
I pointed at myself to confirm if she's calling me and she nodded.
The next thing happened in the classroom — everyone watched me going out. 😭😭😭
Why?
WHY??? 😭😭😭
Just mind your own business and stop watching!!!😭😭😭
I went out as fast as I could to get out of their sight, Lydia folded her hands together…
Lydia: I'm sorry ~ ~ ~ !
Me: …for?
Lydia: The jacket, I forgot to bring it today…
Me: Oh…it's okay.
Lydia: It's mine now?
Me: Huh? No…I…
Lydia: Aww...
She put down her hands and put on a puppy face looking at me.
Lydia: I felt abandoned…
Me: No no no, I mean…I don't…I….
Lydia: Pp—Haha—! Just kidding—!
Me: Oh…haha…
I took a look at her classmates who were standing far away watching us, they giggled and whispered to each other's ears.
If not mistaken, they're not those playing the truth or dare with her last time…
Me: Your friend?
Lydia: Yeah…friends.
Friends huh?
Me: Glad to hear that.
Lydia: So, are you free after school?
Me: Why?
Lydia: Mind to come over?
...
HUH? 💀
Me: Well…I….
Lydia: But, our baby misses you…
...…..
WAIT!
WAIT!
WAIT!
WAIT!
!!!! — HOLD UP!!! WAIT A MINUTE!!! 💀💀💀💀💀💀
The moment she said that, I could see everyone from my classroom looking at us from the window… 😭😭😭
Lydia you should quit wiggling like that!!! 😭😭😭
This is NOT FUNNY!!!! 😭😭😭
Lydia: See you after school then…
After dropping me off, she left with her friends by moving to the next classroom…
Well, for me?
I walked back to the classroom and back to my seat trying to calm myself.
While Cindy — she glared at me for no reason and continued writing.
What's going on today…💀💀💀
......
As promised…
Wait, correction!!! — as being forced, I'm now following Lydia home. 🥲
She's humming a familiar song joyfully while taking the river side way home.
AI: Wow, it's just the residential area behind the school. 😎
How'd you know it?
AI: Your Location is on. 🤓
….
Turn it off, now!!! 🙄
And now — we're at the door. 🫥
Lydia: Hey.
Me: Yes?
Lydia: You look nervous.
Don't—! Just don't mention it. 😑
Me: Well um…yeah.
Lydia: Relax, my parents won't bite.
I know. 🥲
After she opened the door, the creature welcomed her back — her parrot.
Lydia: Haha—! Jake, stop it! Haha—!
Jake: Welcome home —! Welcome back —! ...
After a while, her mom walked out from the kitchen.
Her mom: Aww…the daddy's home, I guess.
I slightly bowed and nodded my head with the simplest greet — "Hello."
...
Did she just say daddy???
Lydia: Come.
She took off her shoes and rushed in after dropping down her bag.
I followed her, which took me to her…room.
Eh, why do girls nowadays like to invite boys into their room??? 😭😭😭
AI: Dude, you rushed in last time, remember? 😌
When?
AI: Oh, you need a reminder, the first day Yumemo was…
Stop stop stop!!! Stop it —!!!😭😭😭
She saw me waiting outside, I bet she could feel my hesitation.
Lydia: What're you waiting for? Come in.
Me: No, thanks. I'm good. 🫥
Her mom: Don't worry.
The sudden voice almost dragged out my soul. 💀
She walks without sounds, that's scary!!! 😭😭😭
Her mom: It's okay, have fun.
Me: No, wait, I…wait…
She pushes me into the room while closing…the….the door...after a smile. 💀
Help…💀💀💀
Lydia: Come, sit.
She's holding the baby crow, it's obviously grown compared to last week.
I slowly moved to her fluffy bed and sat down…
Lydia: You decided her name?
Me: Her?
Lydia: It's our daughter.
...
Me: Daughter?
Lydia: Yeah, you saved it, and I brought it home. So basically we're now her parents.
...
Wait.
...
Let me process something.
AI: Logic error? 🤓
No!
I mean…Yes, but worse than that…I mean…
I was expecting she'll release it or send it somewhere — she's keeping it??? 🫥
AI: Come on, Rin. Girls have stronger maternal instincts compared to boys. You think a parrot owner could bear to see a baby bird released back to the dangerous nature??? Don't be stupid, okay.
Lydia: Are you abandoning us?
Yes, that puppy's face again.
But this time with the baby crow right in front of my face…
Me: Um…no! Of course not, but…daughter?
Lydia: Yeah, daughter.
I gently touched our daugh…the baby crow's beak and it cuddled my finger…
...
Nope, I still don't understand.
AI: You thought too much, buddy.
I wish I'm not.
AI: Come on, average girls from preteen to teen like to role play, it's the same thing as a little girl playing a baby doll like a mother.
Another "Trust me bro" source, eh?
AI: I'm not lying this time, you can ask Yumeko if she played the same thing.
No, you ask her yourself. 🙄
AI: Just play along, you lose nothing on this.
...
Me: Alright.
Lydia: Huh?
Me: From now on, I'm her daddy.
I cuddled its beak again while the baby crow was already asleep…
Lydia: Re…Really?
Me: Yep. I'll take care of you.
....
Me: Uh…is there anything on my face?
She stared at me with her trembling lips.
Lydia: N…No! Here, ex…excuse me…
She passed me the baby crow and ran away from the room as fast as she could.
I swear I didn't fart in the room. 😭😭😭
What happened???
AI: "I'll take care of you" you said, get it now?😌
...I mean it.
I'll take good care of the crow, what?
AI: You said that, but are you sure she heard it correctly?
Of course, she was next to me and she's not deaf.
AI: ...*SIGH* 😌
WHAT???
Did I say something wrong?
AI: All the best to you. 😌
WHAT??? 😭😭😭
Why're you making it scary!!!??? 😭😭😭
AI: All the best…. 😌
