Chapter 8
“Babububuuuuu”
I took another spoon of Broccoli soup and gave it to the little boy with a puzzled face.
As soon as the spoon went near his mouth, the little boy opened his mouth and drank every single drop of the soup.
It seemed like the Broccoli soup suited his taste.
“Yes, Good baby.. if you eat this soup, you’ll grow taller.”
The kid emptied more than half of the soup, ate several more blueberries for dessert, and settled in the middle of the room and bit the rabbit doll.
I turned my head looked at Felix.
He was looking out of the window with an expression of seriousness.
“Felix, what should we do now?”
He held hand in his chin and turned towards me.
“ About the Little boy. What should we do if his parents didn’t look for him like you said?”
“First of all, we have to wait until the holiday is over. If we still can’t find his family, we’ll take him to the professor.”
“Is there a way to call the professor”?
“I’m thinking that if I trace back the spatial movement magic, I can find him.”
But Felix didn’t seem very confident.
I saw the kid again. He threw the rabbit doll and was now playing with the block.
“Dabububuuuuuu.”
Why is that child not looking for his mother?
“And....”
Felix suddenly opened his mouth in a serious tone.
I looked at him again.
“Don’t get too much attached....”
His gaze at saying that went towards the the crawling kid, who crawled to catch the block that bounced far away.
“Why?”
I knew I wouldn’t get attached to the cumbersome little boy, but I asked back without knowingly.
“Why?”
Felix loosened his chin and turned toward me.
“Whether we find his parents or not he’ll leave in a few days..
Felix said it with a straight face.
It wasn’t the expression that was always made toward me, it was literally expressionless.
I’ve seen him for more than a decade, but it’s the first time see this expression, so I got awkward and looked at the kid.
Unlike our heavy atmosphere, the child crawled around ignoring the block he was chasing and observed the objects in the room.
He tried holding everything in the room with his tiny hands, and tried to put them in his mouth.
His appearance with no worries somehow eased my tension and made me sigh.
“Haah..”
At that moment.
The little boy, who had been crawling around for a long time, suddenly got up and then sat on the floor.
He wasn’t doing anything in particular.
He just clenched his fists in that posture.
His chubby cheeks were already bulging, bulged even
more.
It looked as if he was using his every bit of strength.
He even shook his body.
It’s cute, but what’s wrong with him?
I asked quickly since I was worried.
“What’s wrong with you, kid?”
But the kid didn’t even tried to hear my words.
The child still sat in that posture without looking at me.
As soon as I approached him, wondering if he was injured while crawling, I heard a sound coming from between his legs.
PO0000OP
The little boy once again put a lot of strength on his face.
Burrrrr. POO00000P
With a very realistic sound, a rotten egg smell began to fill the room.
“Babuuuuu.”
The little boy, who proudly finished his business in the middle of the room, smiled happily.
WWWWWW
I’ve been swearing at Felix a lot on the inside for wasting magic in useless places.
Even this morning, I clicked my tongue when I saw him magically heating up the water.
However, my thoughts, which had been maintained like that for a long time, changed completely right now.
Felix is a genius who knew how to use advanced magic to enrich our lives.
A true wizard who knows how to use the magic that mankind needs!
I thought I could give him a dry compliment on how great his skills were today.
Of course I’m not doing this because he washed the smelly diapers of the little boy in an instant.
“It’s really incredible.”
I muttered unconsciously as I saw him fitting the little boy with a new diaper.
No matter how many times I looked at it, the diaper looked no different from the clothes that were washed clean and dried in the sun.
Moreover, it took less than ten minutes to get there.
Felix lifted one corner of his mouth after putting the diaper on the little boy.
“Did you just find out?”
It was such a cheeky attitude that I wanted to hit him like I used to do when we were kids, but I controlled it today, remembering the help he did today.
Is that the composure of the competent?
“Yeah, Yeah Mr.Genius you’re really incredible. There is a reason why the girls followed wherever you go.”
I raised my thumb with sincerity, but what came back was.
“What’s wrong with you today? Did you eat something wrong?”
A blunt answer.
After regretting praising Felix, I turned my head towards the little boy.
The little boy wearing the diaper cleaned by Felix’s miracle focused on playing again.
I stared blankly at the appearance.
6 days are left until the end of the holiday.
Will I be able to take care of the baby?
I was sleeping sweetly, and suddenly my head started to hurt.
To be exact, my scalp was sour as if someone was pulling my hair.
For some reason, I felt like I knew the culprit.
“Don’t do that, kid”.
“Ubububuuuu.”
When I opened my eyes, I saw the little kid grabbing a handful of my hair and putting it in his mouth.
As soon as he made eye contact with me, he laughed with his hair in his mouth.
“ Mamuuumuuuuuuu
The plump cheeks spread wide to the side.
“Don’t laugh like that. I’m getting attached to you. And don’t eat my hair. It’s dirty.”
When I pulled my hair, the little boy pushed out his lower lip with a sad expression.
“I won’t give it to you even if you look at me like that. Stop it... I told you not to make that face.“
The kid, who lost his toy (?), tried to crawl over my body blocking him, as if he was leaving to find a new toy.
While I was taking a nap, I put a sofa and chair on the edge of the bed so that the little boy wouldn’t fall off the bed, when I slept next him.
Thanks to this, the little boy who woke up first seemed to be playing next to me calmly.
“Where are you going?”
I grabbed the little boy’s foot touching my belly.
The little boy fell flat on me.
“Babububuuuuuu.”
The little boy wiggled on my stomach.
“Do you know where Felix is?”
I looked around and asked.
Few hours back, I barely put the whining kid to sleep and took a nap together.
Felix seem to have went somewhere while we were sleeping.
“Dabuuuuu.”
Yeah. There’s no way you’d know.
I was thinking about how to play with this small child with a lot of saliva on my stomach, and tickled the little boy’s side with my fingertips.
“Gauukuuuuuuuuku”
The little boy burst into laughter and twisted his body.
DDDD
The little boy crawled at a high speed as soon as I put him on the floor since he kept trying to get out of my hand.
“Dabuuuu !!”
He looked back to see if I was going to follow him.
“Hoho...Do you want me to tickle you more?” Here I come kid!”
“Dadabuuuuuu!”
As soon as I pretended to be approaching, the little kid burst into laughter again and crawled.
It was the moment when I caught the chubby stomach of the kid who crawled to the door.
“What are you doing?”
The door opened and Felix came in.
I smiled awkwardly while holding the little boy in my arms as if I had been caught doing something I didn’t want to be seen doing.
“....was afraid that he’ll bump into the door....That’s why..”
But Felix didn’t believe the words.
“I heard it all. Both of your voices could be heard throughout the hallway.”
My face heated up in an instant. I coughed a couple of times and then turned around.
“By the way, where have you been?”
“At the dorm. I had some stuff to pack.”
“Pack? Didn’t you pack it earlier?”
“I was in a hurry earlier, So this time I went and brought some books and clothes.”
“Book? What book?”
“I’m trying to find out about spatial movement magic, I can’t wait bare handed until the professor comes.”
“I see.”
There was a large bag in his hand with many books stacked inside.
On the other hand, there was an unidentified luggage wrapped in paper.
The bag was quite large, too.
“What’s that?”
He noticed my gaze and held out the unidentified object to me.
“Take it.”
“What is it?”
Felix didn’t answer, so I decided to open it myself.
The little boy still in my arms also stared at my hand as if he was also interested.
When the paper was unwrapped, I saw two women’s clothes.
It was a thick dress that could be worn in winter.
Felix took the book out of the bag and muttered quietly as he sat in bed.
“You can’t stay for 6 days with just that outfit.”
Ah.
“Did you buy this?”
“Yes, since I can’t go into your room.”
“Thank.... you. Felix.”
“Yeah.”
He replied plainly without taking his eyes off the book, he was reading
“And I’m going to read from now on, so don’t talk to me.”
Somehow, the nerves on my forehead popped out.
“I’m thankful, but I always lose my gratitude because of that
attitude.”
I grumbled and put on the dress.
The little boy sat still on the floor and looked at me without moving for some reason.
“Do I look Pretty..baby?”
The little boy, who couldn’t have understood my words, smiled brightly.
“Babububuuuuuuuuu!”
