A Sister's Gentle Touch
I had been in the hospital for two weeks, so I went into the bathroom to take a bath.
The moment I tried to wash my hair from the top in the bathroom, my sister suddenly entered.
No matter how much we are family and I've been a woman since a while ago, I was a man until recently, so is my sister okay with that?
She said she would help me with life as a woman, but I didn't expect her to help with the bath from the start.
Is there a big difference between men and women when it comes to bathing?
“I also wanted to take a bath, so since you've become a woman, we should get used to bathing together.”
“I can do it alone.”
“Just leave your body to me. I'll wash you.”
I could never leave my body to her easily.
I refused, but my sister, who didn't listen to me, washed me anyway.
My sister told me how to dry my hair with a hair dryer, how to comb my hair so it combs well, one by one.
“Now, we should change our underwear too.”
“What if I just wear it like this?”
“What are you talking about? If you're a woman, you should wear a bra and change your panties too.”
I really didn't want to wear a bra at all.
When I saw it during the bath, my chest wasn't that big.
If it's about my size, maybe I don't need it?
“If I don't wear a bra, my shape might look bad and it might hurt. Even if I regret it later, it's useless.”
“Really?”
“You were a man, so you wouldn't know. Also, women's panties and men's panties are different.”
My sister explained why a bra is necessary.
I don't know the difference between men's and women's underwear, but if they're different, I have no choice.
Still, I didn't want anyone to find out that I was wearing a bra.
“Then, is there no bra that doesn't show through?”
“Um, how about wearing a sports bra?”
“Wait a minute. Let me search about it.”
I opened my smartphone and searched about sports bras.
This way, it wouldn't be uncomfortable to wear, and others wouldn't know I was wearing a bra.
I didn't want to wear a bra with strings.
“Sports bra. That seems good.”
“Then, since it's late today, how about going to buy it with Mina tomorrow?”
“Yeah. I'll go with Mina.”
If it's Mina, she can help me buy underwear.
It's a bit embarrassing, but besides Mina, who is like family, there's no one I can ask.
Since my sister might be busy with work, I should ask Mina.

The next morning, I went to school in my male uniform.
After my appearance changed from short hair to long hair, I felt more gazes than usual.
It's true, the silver hair is not a color usually seen.
That's why, since yesterday, many people have been staring at me.
“Wow, such a pretty silver hair.”
“Yeah. Can you dye your hair to that silver color?”
“Amazing, but why are you wearing a male uniform?”
The neighborhood aunties were gossiping about me, and I became the focus of their attention.
I used to receive a lot of attention, but since I became silver-haired, I can't help but receive more.
“Wow, it's Jiyoung. Did you dye your hair?”
“Hello. No. I woke up and it became like this suddenly.”
“Is that so? So pretty. Want some snacks?”
“Thank you. I'll eat it well.”
The neighborhood aunties smiled.
They didn't think much of the hair color change.
I received a lot of cuteness from neighborhood aunties since I was little.
They often gave me snacks saying I was cute.
“Aigoo, so cute. That smile is unfair.”
I ended up being hugged by the neighborhood aunties and received many snack gifts.
Somehow, I received more than usual.
I had breakfast, but the amount of snacks was too much.
When I reached the school gate, I felt the gazes of other students.
I was famous even before, but with silver hair, I felt even more gazes.
I saw Mina waving her hand towards me from afar.
I hurried to meet Mina, and she greeted me happily.
“Hello, Jiyoung. You came early today. Want some chocolate?”
“Hello. Mina. Chocolate? Good.”
“Yeah, wait a second.”
Mina hugged me tightly and stroked my hair.
Mina and the school girls often hugged me and stroked my hair and gave me snacks.
As far as I know, Mina started by giving me snacks and skinship first, and other girls asked if they could hug me while giving snacks.
I naturally agreed, and it became a promise only among the girls.
For me, skinship with girls was fine, and with small snacks, I could save my allowance.
It feels sweeter now than when I was a man.
Looking at the chocolate Mina gave me, saliva started to form.
“Ah, chocolate. I like it so much. It smells delicious.”
“Ah, you've become so cute. Long hair is the best.”
Mina, who was hugging me to give the chocolate, hugged me again before I could even receive the chocolate.
No, I asked for the chocolate first.
Although I didn't put it down, I had to receive it if she offered.
“This is really precious, so I'll give you the whole thing today specially.”
“Really? Don't say that later.”
The chocolate Mina gave was from a very famous party shop.
This is really expensive, right? It must have been hard to get.
I don't think she'll ask for it back later?
I knew Mina wasn't the type to do that, so I wasn't worried.
Of course, I could return some, but Mina doesn't have much greed for eating.
“In exchange, allow me skinship without any conditions for the whole day today. I'll be satisfied with 24 hours.”
“Whatever. It's the same as usual.”
You want 24-hour skinship even though you hug me often?
The word "without conditions" bothered me a bit, but since Mina hugs me, it's good for me.
Because we're close friends and have done skinship often since childhood.
More than that, the chocolate.
I quickly put the chocolate Mina gave into my mouth.
“Ah, happy. This is the taste.”
“Ah, so cute.”
“Wait, just a moment. One more.”
I quickly put another chocolate in my mouth.
Ah, so delicious. Happy.
Even though my body is hugged and hair is stroked, it's okay.
I couldn't escape from the sweet temptation.
“Jiyoung, you're so cute, hehe.”
“Really, this is too delicious?”
The chocolate from the famous shop was too sweet.
The moment it entered my mouth, the sweetness spread instantly, and I slowly savored the chocolate with a blissful smile.
As I walked while absorbed in the chocolate, I arrived at the classroom.
“Hello, Jiyoung?”
“Jiyoung came? Where? Really.”
“According to Mina, you've become even cuter than usual.”
“You've grown your hair a lot, so even prettier.”
“I heard your hair color became silver, really. So pretty.”
The female friends looked at me and showed very blissful expressions.
Since they were friends since middle school, they probably already knew I was in the same class.
According to Mina, women like cute things very much.
More than I thought.
Women basically don't like pretty women.
No reason to like, or perhaps jealousy? If not close, it's out of interest.
Even moderately cute women can be out of interest or jealousy target.
But Mina said that for super cute women, women often like them too.
I know that because I see the eyes, I know I'm cute.
Because I've been around people for a long time, and I have eyes to see.
During that time, I've probably heard "cute" thousands of times.
Minjeong gave me a chocolate chip and spread her arms.
Minjeong and Minji always spread their arms as if they want to give me snacks and hug me.
Since I knew my family situation wasn't good, the twins divided the allowance and gave me snacks.
They're really good friends.
“Wait, just one chocolate chip. Thank you. I'll eat it well.”
“No thanks. We're the ones who should be grateful.”
“Really, your hair tie looks too pretty.”
I took out one chocolate chip and put it in my mouth.
And I hugged Minjeong and Minji once each.
Since Mina's chocolate is precious, I have to eat it carefully.
Compared to Mina's chocolate, it's inferior, but the chocolate chip was quite delicious.
Honestly, high-end chocolate isn't something to enjoy as a student.
It's possible because Mina's house is rich. In normal families, it's impossible.
It was a bit embarrassing to receive snacks from friends every time.
The friends say they feel happy because of me.
When they see a cute me, their heart becomes peaceful or something.
If I don't accept the snacks, they run away.
“Ah, cute. Wearing a male uniform is too cute.”
“Shh, that's taboo.”
“Ah, sorry, I didn't mean it.”
Minji put her finger to her lips and said.
It's already too late. Everyone heard.
You twins thought I was a woman.
Since we met after elementary school high grade, you might not have known.
Well, now I'm really a woman, so it doesn't matter anyway.
I just have to act as usual.
After all, being cute is the best way to live in this world.
My height is too small, so getting a job would be hard, though.
As far as I know, if I'm 140, I heard that part-time jobs and interviews would fail.
If they think I'm too young from the first impression, can I really do the job well? They say worry starts.
Well, I would be flustered if an elementary school student came for an interview.
I understood to some extent.
Thinking like that, how do I make a living as an adult?
I often got scouted by entertainment agencies, but I rejected all of them.
Honestly, with my looks, I'd be suitable as an idol, but I don't think I could handle the busy schedule.
If there's nothing to do, it might be good to think about becoming an idol once.
If I go to an entertainment agency right now and say I want to be an idol, they'll probably be surprised.
