Episode 86
Soon after changing into comfortable indoor clothes, I stretched.
“I have to watch that again today.”
Junho said filming would run late today, so I sat on the living room sofa and turned on the TV.
The wall that had been empty when we first moved in was now filled with family photos of Junho and me together, along with my certificates and awards.
There was also a photo of me in a dress from the piano competition I participated in recently.
Piano academy is basically mandatory for elementary students.
These days I’m intensively practicing Czerny No. 30.
An advertisement was playing on the TV screen. Twenty-year-old 012 TTM.
A pure-looking female celebrity gazed mysteriously at the screen against a backdrop of falling rain.
Soon the drama began.
【Waltz of Prague】
Wow.
This was the masterpiece created by writer Kim Bong-cheol, who had fallen once with his previous work but came back with renewed determination.
A drama that would become the starting point for leading the Korean Wave.
And Junho was appearing as the sub-male antagonist.
Due to some issues that arose midway, the pre-filming period was extended and it was only airing now, making this Junho’s comeback work after a long time.
“Daddy!”
There was the world’s most cold and handsome man suddenly intruding between the female and male leads,
-Why are you doing this to me.
-Well, why am I acting like this? I don’t know either.
Junho’s appearance as he tilted his chin slightly and brought his face close to the female lead was as captivating as a venomous snake.
“Kyaaah.”
I placed both hands on my cheeks and let out an exclamation.
Junho’s gentle eyes and flower-like appearance were nowhere to be seen,
Instead, I saw an arrogant black panther growling from the top of the world, feeling loneliness.
-I have someone I like.
-Haven’t you thought that I could make things difficult for that person?
Junho raised his hand to sweep back his hair and spoke arrogantly.
His soft eyes only enhanced the decadent beauty, tremendously increasing the tension in the drama.
“Noah, predict this episode’s viewership rating.”
[Today’s predicted peak viewership rating is 59 percent.]
“Wow, as expected!”
It surpasses past records.
Viewership ratings, keep rising!
“What do you mean ‘as expected’?”
While my eyes were sparkling, I heard Junho’s voice from behind.
“You scared me!”
I was startled and my shoulders jumped, then Junho suddenly brought his face close.
“Hello, my daughter. Daddy’s home.”
“Daddy!”
I quickly stretched out my arms and wrapped them around Junho’s neck.
A pretty face that seemed to make time flow backwards and innocent eyes.
Our proud daddy, Gu Jun-ho!
Speaking briefly of the special Quest ‘Guardian’s Growth’, when one star was completely filled, another black star appeared.
I don’t know how many stars there will be, but filling the stars seems to have the effect of making Junho more handsome, smarter, and improving his acting skills.
Currently, 1.6 stars were filled, and his appearance and acting skills had grown by more than 50% compared to the beginning.
[Special Quest ‘Guardian’s Growth’ Stage 17, make him learn 20 cooking skills for the user. 13/20]
“You really are the most handsome in the world, our daddy!”
Junho also hugged me tightly and patted me.
Soon separating, I opened my eyes wide and asked.
“But didn’t you say you’d come home late today?”
“Well…”
Junho looked at me and winked.
“Daddy did so well that we finished early.”
“Ooh.”
“You know the scene where we have a conversation in French. They didn’t know I’d be that good. Haha. The French teacher praised me so much that my shoulders went up with pride.”
Junho had mastered advanced English conversation and was now learning French needed for drama filming.
“How about beef bourguignon for dinner?”
“Great! Daddy’s the best!”
Junho hummed while putting on an apron.
Then, as if remembering something, he turned to look at me and said.
“Oh, I briefly met senior Yeong-il earlier, and he asked me to tell Chaea thank you?”
“Huh?”
“About Somang Preschool. After being on TV recently, they’re even more packed with students. They’re apparently planning to expand soon.”
“Ah, haha.”
Misuk, who accepted my marketing proposal, actually traveled to Northern Europe to research Waldorf education and perfectly systematized that method at Somang Preschool.
Three years after completely transforming from a preschool that mothers once avoided into a premium naturalistic forest preschool, it had now become Korea’s representative Waldorf preschool.
“But why is that thanks to Chaea?”
Junho tilted his head while taking out a pot and placing it on the gas stove.
I pretended not to know and focused on the drama.
“Chaea. But.”
Suddenly Junho’s voice was heard again.
“…”
I could see the female and male leads’ faces getting closer to each other.
“That’s rated 15+.”
“Yes.”
I eventually turned off the TV with the remote.
Aw, couldn’t you have come home just a little later.
Soon the savory smell of broth flowed to my nose.
Three years had passed, but Junho remained the same.
A daddy who was affectionate yet firm about what needed to be protected.
“Oh, and your math teacher contacted me. She said she’s happy to have two math prodigies in first grade.”
Junho said while adding tomato sauce.
“How about Chaea and Hee-jae representing first grade in the upcoming interschool competition? She suggested joining the test preparation practice class. Would that be okay?”
“Hmm… that sounds troublesome. Do I really need to practice for a competition?”
At those words, it felt like my homework shuttle was glaring at me.
[૮₍ ≖ᴥ≖ ₎ა]
The reason I’m good at math is partly because first-grade elementary math is what it is,
But also because Noah provides everything from the solution process to the answers without me needing to think.
‘Messiah’s technology really is sweet.’
As Noah grew, I was truly experiencing life’s easy mode.
“No. I don’t want to do it.”
Junho nodded without any particular disappointment.
“Okay, do whatever makes Chaea comfortable. Daddy will explain it well to the teacher.”
The best father figure of this era who shows interest but doesn’t force studying, Junho is the best!

Narim Private Elementary School, 1st grade Class 4 classroom.
“Class president, lead the greeting.”
The teacher who had finished the lesson smiled brightly and said to me.
I stood up from my seat with practiced ease.
I am the class president of Class 4, Grade 1.
I originally had no intention of being class president, but those guys all recommended me, so *sigh*.
Anyway, all the other children stood up as well.
“Attention. At ease, attention.”
The children moved their bodies in sync with my commands.
“Bow to the teacher.”
“Teacher, goodbye.”
Everyone greeted in unison.
“Yes, everyone be careful on your way home.”
For the month of March, the teacher escorted us to the school gate, but now that it’s April, we’re doing individual dismissals.
“Anyone going to the arcade!”
“Me!”
“Ah, but aren’t those 3rd grade hyungs coming again?”
“Right, they took our money last time.”
I could hear the boys’ voices.
“Gu Chaea, what are you going to do?”
As I was packing my bag, Yeongmin from the seat next to me asked.
He’s one of the main culprits who recommended me for class president.
[♥Chaea♥ Princess, I wish you would play with me♥♥♥♥♥ (99%)]
Ah, turn off the inner thoughts function.
Now Noah understood perfectly and turned off the function just by me slightly moving my lips without making a sound.
“I’m going to organize my bag a bit.”
“What about after organizing?”
“I’m going home to do homework.”
“You’re no fun.”
Yeongmin, looking disappointed, shouldered his bag and walked out briskly.
“Chaea!”
“Chaea! Bye! We’re leaving first!”
“Oh! Our mom said to come play next time!”
Haedeun and Haesoo waved goodbye as they left through the door.
Those cute twin boys who had grown so much.
“Go, go, go.”
I waved my hand lightly at them.
Whether it was good luck or bad luck, Yeongmin, Haesoo, and Haedeun, who were all in the same class at Somang Preschool, ended up in the same class again in first grade.
And….
“…Chaea.”
Not long after, Hee-jae, who hadn’t been visible during closing time, appeared at the front door.
