Chapter 45: The extras were caught hugging the princess.

“Before that, regarding the organization of the festival committee….”

Before the end of 4th period. While the class president was talking about the festival in front of the class, with the teacher’s permission, I was reading a book.

‘Hmm, this looks delicious too….’

I skimmed through the lavishly taken food photos. This book, which Jia lent me, contained a wide variety of recipes, and as the book’s description of recipes for people living alone, it contained surprisingly easy recipes that even I could try.

‘I should make this for Siyeon later.’

I’ve only been getting food from her so far, so it was only right for me to cook for her.

‘Of course, right now, I’m leaving even the omurice to the other kids….’

But wouldn’t my skills improve if I continued to participate in club activities? Every journey begins with a single step. Mm-hmm.

“Ah, this is a dish I’ve made before.”

At Sejeong’s words, who was watching with me from the side, I stop turning the page. Braised Kimchi with Pork Belly. It’s a dish made by boiling pork belly and aged kimchi, and the reddish, glossy photo looked quite appetizing.

“If you just grill the meat, there’s not much of it, so if you braise it with kimchi like this, it’s quite satisfying and I like it. It’s also soft. And if you wrap the kimchi and meat together and eat it….”

Grumble….

“Ah.”

When I looked to the side, Sejeong was smiling at me.

“…It’s because you described it so vividly.”

I blame her for no reason. While covering my bad stomach with one hand, I grabbed my reddened ear with the other hand to cool it down. Fortunately, my hands were cold.

It wasn’t strange to be hungry soon before lunch time. In fact, that was the reason I was looking at the cookbook. I was looking at it to deceive my hungry stomach, but my stomach was defeated by Sejeong’s explanation, which described the food vividly.

Hey, are you that easy of a stomach?

Grumble….

…As if a kid who can only wriggle can answer when asked.

“Later, when you come to my house, I’ll make it for you?”

“I’m looking forward to that.”

Judging by Sejeong’s cooking skills I saw during the club activity, I would be able to receive quite a delicious meal.

♬~.

“…If there is anyone who has a recommendation or wants to volunteer, please come to me. That is all.”

When the class president’s words ended with the bell, the other kids got up and left the classroom in groups of three or five. I also got up.

“Food, food~.”

“You revive only during lunch time. Even though you were so bored during class.”

“Well, because it’s boring?”

Even if I listen to the class, I can’t feel any fun. I’m studying obligatorily to avoid failing, but that’s just it. I can’t feel any fun there.

“Well…the classes at the school I used to attend weren’t very interesting either.”

Sejeong, who nodded at my words, added.

“Still, the classes at this school are quite interesting, aren’t they? Even though I’ve only listened for a week, the teachers explain a lot of knowledge without being limited to the textbook. It’s fun to compare it with what I knew in advance, or something like that….”

You smart model student. What student savors the taste of class to this extent?

“You’re like a nerd.”

I thought Sejeong would be angry or embarrassed by those words. But….

“A nerd…I’m not enough to be called that. How many people are there who are much more crazy about books than I like.”

Sejeong had the eyes of someone who had looked into the deep abyss. …Yeah. Let’s not go deep.

There were also worlds that I didn’t want to know.

“Kim Hayeon! Let’s go eat lunch!”

Just in time, Sohee rushed towards me. Oof.

“…Heavy.”

“Heavy!? I didn’t gain that much weight when I measured it yesterday….”

Sohee is fiddling with her stomach, but as someone who has been by her side for quite a long time since middle school, I could tell. Unlike the chest that hasn’t grown at all, the buttocks and thighs that are claiming to be full.

Sohee was a typical lower body type.

However, I didn’t say that out loud. Sohee was sensitive about her thick lower body, and she was diligently going to Pilates in the evening, saying she would lose leg fat.

The problem is that the lower body is becoming more prominent as she goes to exercise…anyone can dream.

“No, no matter how light it is, it’s natural to be heavy when a person jumps into your arms.”

“Princess, you have no delicacy today either. I know you don’t know because you have a perfect body, but originally, you shouldn’t say things like heavy to a girl.”

I know what Jia said next to me, but honestly, isn’t that the kind of manner you should have in a relationship where you’re flirting? Rather, in my previous life, I used to joke around like that with the female friends I was close to….

‘Well, it can be different between girls.’

This was the first time I lived as a woman, and Aria Academy, where only young ladies were, was quite a special place.

It was natural to have a gap with the common sense I originally had.

“I see. Then, I should say you’re light, right?”

“It feels like I’m making you do it against your will….”

“I’ll prove it.”

Proof that it’s not just words. It was a very simple thing.

“Kyaaa!”

I lifted Sohee, who was clinging to me, in a princess carry.

One of the few good things about ‘Kim Hayeon’ was this. Her body was strong, and she was strong. It seemed that the writer said that it was a result of cartoonish adaptation rather than realistic points for fun.

Characters are people too, you know!

…No, of course they’re not people.

How can an author be in their right mind to put a setting of superhuman strength on a first-year high school girl just for fun.

“It’s light, you see. This will prove it, right?”

I smiled at Sohee, who was surprised to be suddenly lifted up.

I’m sure this will give some credibility to the word light.

“Ah, I see. I’ll believe you….”

Sohee pressed down on her skirt with one hand, and at the same time, she urgently grabbed my shoulder with the other hand.

Even if she doesn’t hold on, she won’t fall. It’s not like I lifted her so carelessly.

“I’ll believe you…so can you put me down now…?”

If she asks me to put her down, I have to put her down. It would only be bullying beyond that.

As Sohee wished, I put her down safely, and somehow her face was red.

Was she that surprised?

When I looked at the other two, Sejeong was looking at me with sparkling eyes, as if it was amazing that I lifted a person up, and Jia shook her head as if it was starting again.

“Hayeon-ah. Can you lift me up too?”

“Yeah. Honestly, I can lift up most of the girls attending school, right?”

Perhaps because of the influence of the original, there were no girls who looked fat among the girls attending here.

Rather, there were quite a few girls with bodies that would have been the envy of everyone if it were in the original reality.

Like Lee Seorin, or Baek Ahra.

The more important the characters were in the comic, the more beautiful they became, as if they were sculpted.

The peak is Yoon Sejeong. On the other hand, I….

‘Am I pretty?’

Until I regained my memory, I had no interest in evaluating my appearance.

And now, with the eyes of the man I was…hmm, I think I’m pretty.

Honestly, there were many faces that fell into the ‘pretty’ evaluation in this school.

Therefore, I concluded that it was moderately ordinary.

If I talk about beauty when it comes to appearance, I felt like that ‘princess’ sound would change to ‘princess disease end-stage patient’.

“Then, can you princess carry me too?”

“Shall I?”

“Yes.”

Sejeong looked at me with an expectant face.

If she looks at me like that, I want to live up to her expectations.

“Then, I’ll lift you up?”

Whoosh.

“Kyaaa~.”

It was the same scream as Sohee, but it was full of joy rather than surprise.

It seemed that she liked this kind of thing.

Without even grabbing her skirt, Sejeong wrapped her two arms around my neck and completely clung to me, looking at me with a face that was having fun.

A little moist breath comes down to my chest. It’s ticklish and a little strange feeling.

I was thinking about putting her down soon, but when I saw her enjoying herself as a princess completely held by a prince, I couldn’t bring myself to say it first.

‘Come to think of it, did she like amusement parks?’

The place where Baek Ahra and Lee Seorin matched up and made a date with Yoon Sejeong was a rented amusement park.

It might be okay to go to an amusement park in advance before the blood of the royal family flows.

Later, it will be difficult to play unless it’s a place where there are suspiciously few people.

One minute of playing with kyaa kyaa like that.

It was when the time had passed when I had to put her down.

“I thought you had gone first, but I’m glad I came to the classroom first.”

Through the open classroom door, golden eyes sparkle and appear.

Grin.

“Would it be okay if I joined you for lunch today too, Hoobae-nim?”

I never thought I would be invited to lunch by the princess twice first.
