“You mean you stole it knowing you would get scolded?”

It would make sense to say he didn’t know he was going to get scolded. However, I couldn’t understand that he stole while knowing that he would get scolded.

“It’s okay. We won’t get caught.”

Kir’s carefree words, not realizing the seriousness of the situation at all, made me choke as if someone was grabbing a leash and shaking me. I got caught up as the kid was playing with fire and became an accomplice.

It was a huge thing on a different level than any accident I had ever had, and it was getting more and more difficult to handle for my fragile heart. I thought I was going to have an arrhythmia, so I grabbed my chest.

Calm down, calm down. I can still fix it.

“I told you not to do bad things. That key, quickly put it back in its place.”

I was in a hurry while talking, so my hands moved wildly. I almost pushed Kir’s back to move quickly. But Kir held on by strengthening his feet. He was stronger than me, so he didn’t get pushed.

So I deliberately returned to the front and stood there, putting my hand on my waist and glaring at Kir. When I posed, “I’ll get angry if you keep not listening,” Kir grumbled with a sad look on his face.

“I brought you here on purpose to show you.”

“You want to show me?”

As he said it was for me, it did not give me sweet feelings. But knowing that he risked it for me, I couldn’t be angry. I mean, this was the result of trying my best to make this kid look at me in a good way. Since he acted against common sense, I also had to explain based on that person’s standard, not the standard of common sense.

“Thank you, but no more. If you do bad things because of me, I will be upset.”

I have to say it calmly so Kir could understand. First of all, thank you for what you’ve done for me. It’s not that Kir doesn’t have common sense. He knows for sure that stealing is wrong. But it must have been that his desire to show it to me was greater than the thought that it was wrong.

Besides, in his life, he could do whatever he wanted, so he might have committed it without thinking.

That self-centered personality was difficult for me to follow. Many other smaller things had improved a lot, however, such as this, old habits were still sticking out.

“So…… Are you upset right now?”

“Of course, I’m not upset. I’m sorry that you did bad things because of me, and I feel guilty that I became the person who made you do bad things.”

Hearing my words, Kir’s eyes widened in shock. I said it quite solemnly, and he wilted down in an instant. I was signaling to him that he should bring it back quickly, as I was upset. But Kir wasn’t looking at me like that. I recognized the insidious resentment in it.

He thought I would like it and tried to give me a chance to look around the treasure trove, but it would be unfair to hear nagging before he could even show it to me.

My heart understood. When receiving a surprise gift, it is polite to respond favorably even if you do not like it 100%. For Kir, it was pure kindness.

I hung my head down to swallow my displeasure and stuck close to Kir as he pounded the floor with the toe of his shoe. Then, I lightly laid my hand on Kir’s hair, which fluttered like a golden thread.

His shoulders twitched in surprise at my touch, but he didn’t shake off my hand. I knew that was permission, and I swallowed the rising laughter and slowly stroked his hair.

If my fingertips had a sense of taste, wouldn’t Kir’s hair taste sweet? The touch on my fingertips was as soft as cotton candy, as if it would melt in an instant. Looking at Kir, who was holding his breath, I thought he was really like a child.

“Kir, thank you so much for taking care of me. That makes me happy.”

At the end of my words, which continued slowly like a slow touch, Kir’s ears burned red. And then his head came down even more. He seemed to help make it easier to touch. Honestly, rather than being happy, the way he endures embarrassment is really Kir-like.

“I want to look at it and have fun, too.”

“Right? I knew you’d like it. There are a lot of jewels and, again, a lot of pretty things.”

Seeing Kir, who was instantly revived this time, I added quickly, fearing that my taming would fail.

“But I can’t be happy if you steal again when given the chance. So let’s put it back.”

“This is an opportunity that doesn’t come often.”

If that’s an opportunity that comes often, won’t your house be ruined soon? There was a problem if the key to the treasure trove easily enters the hands of a child, no matter how close he was to his immediate family.

“I am grateful for your heart.”

I persuaded Kir with the kindest smile I could. I don’t think he understood, but he was depressed, probably because he had to listen to me. Kir, who looked at me alternately with the key in his hand, whispered cautiously.

“I’ve already taken it out, can’t I just take a look and return it?”

“Then what if something goes wrong? Let’s just take it back for now.”

“I think there are things you like. It’s okay to just look. Aren’t you curious about the treasure trove?”

Does he really mean that?

“Of course, I want to see it too! It’s a treasure trove tour!”

Treasure trove! The name alone is a radiant glory! It’s a treasure trove of dreams and hopes, so who wouldn’t want to see it? Feigning kindness, I inadvertently let out my feelings. And at that moment, in my head, oops, I made a mistake. It hit my mind in succession.

An evil smile appeared on Kir’s lips as he stared at me, who had lost all my energy. Perhaps he had noticed me. His beautiful purple eyes were full of confidence.

“Did you want to see it, too?”

“That’s not it!”

“If you’re curious, just say you’re curious. Alright, I’ll show you.”

“I’m not sneaking in!”

I shouted quickly, but I couldn’t stand Kir, whose confidence was already soaring endlessly to the sky.
