My Platinum-Blond Childhood Friend Is So Pretty - My Platinum-Blond Childhood Friend Is So Pretty chapter 152

152 – 65. Amelia is a Princess! -2

“Oh my god! Amelia, the red hat girl! So cute?”

“So cute! Is this the cutest red hat girl in the world? I want to become a wolf and devour her~”

“Mel, didn’t you want to see your aunts?”

“I wanted to see them! You’re so pretty, Soyooni Auntie, and Hyeoni Auntie is so lovely too! I saw them all!”

“How can our Mel talk so prettily?”

“Are you lacking snacks? Soyoon, shall we buy more?”

“Let’s buy some!”

“Don’t buy any.”

Joo Hye-ryeong sat Amelia on her lap, and Lee So-yoon took selfies with Amelia, making cute faces together. Their conversation was as smooth as breathing.

Sometimes, Eli could get jealous to the point where she couldn’t help but feel that way, but the two of them were still very close.

The two of them had moved out of their shared house two years ago, but now they were even closer and still living together.

They even went on many overseas trips on their days off, having a great time.

Both of them were popular idols, but they didn’t seem to be dating… I didn’t dare ask because it felt a bit awkward.

Eli and I had talked about it before, but if I asked her, she would give me a sidelong glance and say, “Why are you curious?”

Anyway, since we were at the café, we had to order something.

So, while I was thinking about what to drink, Lee So-yoon gently stroked Amelia’s cheek and said,

“Mel, do you want to drink chocolate milk with your aunts? You love chocolate, don’t you?”

“Choco! I want to drink it! Mamma, can Amelia have chocolate?”

Like a little girl, she already couldn’t resist sweets. Thanks to that, Amelia, who loved chocolate very much, sparkled her eyes and asked Eli for permission.

But Eli responded as a mother.

“Eyemi, you ate a lot of snacks with your dad earlier and drank a lot too. Do you want to drink more? You promised me yesterday not to be greedy, remember?”

“Yes… but… um… Amelia wants to drink chocolate…”

“You promised me, but you still want to drink it?”

“Can I drink it… please…?”

“……”

Amelia’s pitiful expression, begging with her eyes. If I were in Eli’s shoes, I would have already given in. Seeing her like that, I couldn’t bear to say no.

Eli was also struggling with her motherly instincts, thinking about Amelia.

At that moment.

“Wait, Eli! Why are you scolding the kid who wants to drink chocolate latte? Just give her a little bit! We can drink it together!”

“That’s right. You, as a mom, how can you be so cold? To such a cute Mel!”

“Umm…”

Lee So-yoon and Joo Hye-ryeong came to Amelia’s defense. Realizing that her aunts were on her side, Amelia started to roll her eyes around.

And those eyes landed on me.

“Pappa… can Amelia have chocolate…?”

“Hmm…”

“I’m a princess, so I have to drink chocolate…”

“The princess’s shield is too strong.”

Amelia’s “I’m a princess…” was almost invincible. It was like a powerful shield with a sharp sword, dealing a high amount of damage.

My daughter, who was already instinctively using this tactic, was amazing.

What’s even more frightening is that I knew it, but I couldn’t help but give in.

“Would it be okay if we just have one drink?”

“Husband?”

“No, actually, I’m worried that I won’t be able to eat well later, so it’s a bit late for that…”

“…….”

“…Of course, I’ll agree with you completely and leave it to you.”

“Sigh… there’s no choice. Amy. Instead, I’ll eat the snacks I got from my aunts tomorrow. Today is the last one. I’m making a real promise with mom.”

“Yes! Promise!”

“Great~ Mel. Want to go buy chocolate with my aunts?”

“Let’s go!”

“We’ll buy some for you too. Eli will have a few, and Doyun?”

“I’m good… no, I’ll order one. Can I have a green tea juice with fruit?”

“Got it. Ah, Mel! Are you only holding hands with So-yeon auntie? Not with me?”

“I’ll hold hands! Here!”

“So cute~”

As the three of them walked away to order their drinks, Eli let out a sigh.

“It seems like they’re spoiling Amy too much…”

“But we’re not the only ones; everyone around us does that, so what can we do?”

“That’s true, but… our dad is the biggest problem. Other people at least draw a line, but dad doesn’t, so Amy gets even more spoiled.”

“What… our dad isn’t easy to deal with, but Mark is the worst. If Amy just points at something with her finger, he’ll buy it for her.”

“And on top of that, he comes to visit us unexpectedly and buys us treats, always calling us ‘princess’ and making a fuss…”

“Um, actually, I don’t have anything to say about that part…”

“No. My husband at least takes my feelings into consideration and exercises self-control. That’s what dads are for, so it’s okay. But grandpa is a different story.”

“…That’s true!”

It seems like grandpa is the one who spoils Amy, and I, as the dad, should be the one to put on the brakes.

I just nodded in agreement with Eli’s words, which implied that she was more on my side than Mark’s. That’s what I should do in this situation.

Eli wasn’t making a big deal out of it either.

After all, even Eli can’t resist Amelia’s charms when she acts cute and clingy.

So I just played along and wrapped my arm around Eli’s waist, who was pouting slightly.

And I changed the subject, whispering in her ear.

“By the way, our queen, you look really beautiful today?”

“What’s with the sudden…”

“I couldn’t take my eyes off you and Amy earlier. You were so captivating that Amy didn’t even eat much snacks.”

“Hehe…”

She let out a happy snort at my words.

In reality, Amy was still eating snacks while looking at her mom, but… those minor details aren’t necessary.

Eli gazed at me with a seductive smile and a sidelong glance, her body leaning slightly towards me.

“If we didn’t have plans today, I would’ve gone home and kept hugging you.”

“Hehe, you were that pretty?”

“Extremely. The wave in your hair right now isn’t a joke. I really want to kiss you.”

“Really? Bring your lips here. The queen will give you a peck.”

“Is it okay outside?”

“Anyway, they’re going to watch the menu with Amy and come back, so what’s the big deal? There’s no one watching us here because Amy is so cute.”

“That’s true. Then, shall we receive a kiss from the queen?”

“Uh… okay…”

Although it wasn’t a kiss that mixed tongues outside, the soft lips that touched mine still brought me happiness today.

Honestly, I was the happiest man in the world.

I could receive a kiss from the cute princess and even from the queen – what more could I ask for?

It was a weekend afternoon.

The feeling of kissing my beautiful wife, Amy, in a cafe was indescribable.

***

As we chatted and caught up, we endlessly doted on Amelia, whom we hadn’t seen in almost a month.

Finally, our friends, who had brought us two bags of snacks, bid us farewell.

“See you next time. Goodbye, Mel~”

“Mel, can I have one last kiss on the cheek?”

“Aww, you’re so sly! Me too, me too!”

“Yes! *kiss kiss*”

“Hehe… that feels great…”

“Your lips are so soft and squishy…”

With a bright smile, the two of them waved goodbye, and I also hugged Amelia and waved with her.

Then, Soyeon burst out laughing.

“It’s amazing. You’re completely like Elly, but I can see Doyoon’s face on Mel’s face too?”

“Maybe it’s because of the eyes? Elly is a bit more sharp, but Amelia is a bit more innocent. Like Doyoon.”

“It’s not as innocent as Doyoon, but… she’s really like a princess.”

“Amelia is a princess!”

“Hehe… yeah! See you next time, Princess Mel!”

“See you next time, too! Bye-bye!”

“Bye-bye~”

After saying goodbye to the two, we headed straight home.

It was almost time for dinner, but of course, we ended up skipping it tonight.

“Amy, are you hungry?”

“I’m full!”

“I knew you would be.”

We had eaten a piece of cake at the cafe, and Amelia had devoured snacks nonstop, so I ended up opening a bag of snacks for her too.

It was no wonder she wasn’t hungry.

So, as soon as we arrived, we took a bath together. We soaked our bodies in the warm bathtub, relaxing our tired muscles.

As expected, Amelia’s eyes were about 80% closed.

“Amelia, let’s sleep…”

My little daughter stretched out her arms to me, looking like she was about to collapse.

It was earlier than usual that we went to sleep. Although we had only done a half-day shoot after returning, it must have been a tiring schedule for Amelia.

I didn’t take a nap today, and I held her a lot in between, but Amelia, the indoor type, walked a lot too.

“Will you sleep well? Do you want Dad to carry you to Amy’s bed?”

“Don’t hold me…”

“Hold me and put me to sleep?”

“Yes… because you’re the princess… I have to hold you…”

“Oh my, you’re so cute! Our little princess~”

“Pappa… Bijou…”

*Tsk*

“Did you tell Mom?”

“I did… I sang a song for her…”

“A song too? You’re such a spoiled princess.”

“Dad’s song…”

“Our princess wants it, so I have to sing it.”

*Tap tap*

“Sleep tight, our baby… in the front yard and backyard…”

“Mmm…”

The princess in the red hood, now an angel in white, fell asleep in my arms.

As time passed, my daughter became more and more spoiled, but it didn’t bother me at all. In fact, it was adorable.

No matter what I did, it felt like it wasn’t enough.

While Eli was doing household chores like laundry and cleaning, I sang a 30-minute lullaby to Amelia.

Until she fell deeper asleep.

Then, I tried to lay her down on her bed, but she wouldn’t let go of my T-shirt.

“……”

*Tight hug*

“This is…”

Even in her sleep, Amelia wouldn’t let go of my T-shirt.

I couldn’t force her to let go, but…

“Mmm…”

Our Amelia didn’t want to be separated from Dad even in her sleep, and I couldn’t bear to pull her away with my own hands.

As I was wondering what to do, Eli, who had finished the household chores, entered Amelia’s room.

“What’s going on? Isn’t Amy sleeping?”

“I was trying to lay her down, but she won’t let me go. What do I do?”

“Really?”

Eli looked puzzled after hearing my words.

Then, soon after.

“Husband, are you a bit sleepy?”

“Me? A little… not too much.”

“I’m also tired from the long shoot today, so I think I’ll take Amy and go to bed early.”

“Oh, in our bed? It’s okay, but can you sleep? You had coffee earlier, didn’t you?”

“I don’t think I can sleep right away, but I’ll lie down and look at our husband’s face before sleeping. How about that?”

“Of course, it’s great. When I see our queen’s face, time flies by.”

“Cu-“

With that, we gazed at each other, chuckled for a moment, and headed to the bedroom.

And with Amelia in my arms, I lay down on the bed.

It was still early, but with the two of us admiring our daughter’s platinum hair and lovely face, time would surely fly by.

We gazed at each other’s faces, gently stroking our sleeping daughter’s hair, and chatted softly until we fell asleep.

“Isn’t it time… for us to get up early tomorrow?”

“Let’s take Amy for a morning stroll around the neighborhood. Since we went out a lot today, we won’t go out tomorrow, but we should at least get some exercise in the morning.”

“Okay. That’s the plan for tomorrow.”

“And starting tomorrow, no more than three times a day of spoiling her.”

“……”

“Answer.”

“I’ll try my best. But it’s not easy, you know?”

“I know. So let’s reduce it bit by bit.”

“Our daughter knows she’s a princess too well, so it’s hard.”

“That’s what I mean. She inherited her father’s charm, knowing how to be cute.”

“…Is that something I do?”

“You do. You’re still making cute faces and flirting with me.”

“Huh? I was just talking…”

“Never mind. Pucker up. I’ll kiss you.”

“Not on the cheek?”

“On the lips.”

– Kiss!
