Two Weeks Later, Jiyoung Wakes Up
Jiyoung woke up after being unconscious for two weeks.
She was my childhood friend who had lived next door since we were babies, and although we moved when I became a middle schooler, we could continue our friendship since we attended the same school.
Jiyoung had been incredibly cute since childhood.
Even in elementary school, she was very short, and her height increased until her first year of middle school before stabilizing around 140cm.
With her petite body and adorable appearance, she was truly a lovable friend.
Jiyoung suddenly fell unconscious and woke up as a woman.
Originally with her short bob haircut, she was already super cute, but after becoming a woman, she became even cuter.
I didn't know why I had become a woman, but whatever.
Becoming cuter was a blessing.
It couldn't be anything but a blessing from the heavens.
It's no exaggeration to say that Jiyoung is the cutest person in the world—from her face, height, voice, hair color, and those mysterious odd-colored eyes.
There were good points to Jiyoung becoming a woman.
Now we could bathe together, and I could finally go to the pool I hadn't been able to visit before.
Just imagining it made me incredibly happy.
Jiyoung was so cute that she might be exposed to crime at any moment.
For such a Jiyoung, I was steadily exercising.
I had to protect Jiyoung with my own hands.
The reason I exercised whenever I could was to protect the cute Jiyoung.
Because anyone would want to kidnap and raise such a lovable being.
So, instead of going to the school just five minutes away on foot, I forced myself to enter a high school near Jiyoung's house, even if it meant walking for over an hour each way.
Although I couldn't commute with her, every time after school, I took Jiyoung home.
And because of that choice, it seemed the heavens had blessed me—I ended up in the same class as her.
Our school didn't change class members from first to third year.
So, when I learned we were in the same class during middle school, my friends couldn't hide their cheers.
Does Jiyoung know how super popular she is, like an idol?
There had been an uproar because old photos of her had circulated on the internet, but what if new photos did?
Ah, I wanted to take her home right now, hug her tightly, and sleep with her.
I gently stroked the head of the cute Jiyoung sleeping on my lap.
I lightly pinched her cheeks and stroked her belly.
I wanted to hug her like this, but I couldn't disturb her sleep.
If Jiyoung got angry once, she wouldn't be able to receive her components for a week—that was a very sad prospect.
Her small, pretty cherry lips.
I wanted to touch them, but couldn't wake her, so I held back.
Her hair was also soft when I stroked it, quite soft.
I was envious, but jealousy didn't arise.
I had a pretty face too, so I was popular with men, but Jiyoung was on a completely different level.
If she had an adult appearance with this face, she might have stolen the hearts of countless men, except for lolicons.
No, even lolicons might change their minds with Jiyoung's appearance.
Fortunately, Jiyoung's appearance was very cute and petite, so the guys trying to confess could be scared off as lolicons.
I was worried it might cause male hatred.
I couldn't understand the confidence of strangers approaching Jiyoung for a confession.
Seeing an unknown man suddenly come up and confess made me shudder.
Even if Jiyoung had been a man, there might have been trash who thought Jiyoung was fine.
I didn't think sudden confessions from uninterested men were huge nuisances?
So, by acting as Jiyoung's bodyguard, I could see to some extent what kind of feelings men had for Jiyoung.
Ordinary guys who liked her cute nature.
These people were fine.
I couldn't resist cuteness.
But the dirty guys who lusted after the cute.
I had to protect our pure Jiyoung from those trash somehow.
That was my job while beside Jiyoung.
"Hehe. Chocolate."
Jiyoung was cute even in her sleep.
It seemed she was dreaming of eating chocolate.
"How can you endure such cuteness?"
"Nosebleed coming."
"Same feeling, smile won't stop."
"Really happy to be born a girl."
I wanted to tell the world how cute Jiyoung was.
How many people would love her.
If I did an internet broadcast, I could help.
I had to make Jiyoung start doing internet broadcasts.
"Ah, slept well. Why are you all gathered here?"
Don't know? They were admiring your cuteness.
The male students were glancing from afar too.
There were good points to being in the same class as Jiyoung.
No delinquents could appear in the same class.
Jiyoung hated delinquents so much that many might appear.
Even if they did, I could handle them with my own hands.
I couldn't show anything bad to Jiyoung.
"Thanks for lending me your knee. Want chocolate?"
"No. It's fine. I have some at home too. While buying yours, I bought mine as well."
"Really? Glad. Sorry for eating the expensive one alone."
"Why would you apologize if I'm eating it deliciously?"
I sat Jiyoung on my lap and hugged her tightly.
Fortunately, Jiyoung didn't refuse.
After becoming a woman, I felt she accepted skinship better.
"Not heavy?"
"None at all? I can sit with you all day."
"Legs will cramp. I'm secretly heavy."
"Over 30kg, what are you saying? You say you're not uncomfortable? If uncomfortable, get down."
"A bit uncomfortable, but since you gave me precious chocolate, it's fine."
Buying real chocolate was a genius move.
I wished time would stop here.
This happy time ended when the next teacher came.
Still, it had been an incredibly happy time.
After class ended and it was lunch break, my friends and I pushed our desks together and took out our bentos.
At our school, we could bring our own or buy from the canteen.
The canteen even sold bentos, so even if we didn't bring, we could eat.
Minjeong and Minji were friends I had known since elementary school.
I had first become friends with Mina, and then Mina introduced me to the twins, so it happened naturally.
"Jiyoung, do you like shrimp tempura? Try this too."
"I brought chicken and egg rolls."
"Huh, everyone is thinking the same thing."
"Tempting with food is the easiest way."
"How cute Jiyoung looks eating."
Thanks to my friends' bento terror, there were overwhelmingly more side dishes than rice.
My mouth was short, so I couldn't eat that much.
After distributing my bento, the lunch finally began.
"Delicious. Where did you buy this?"
"I fried it myself."
"From this morning?"
"Need to tempt Jiyoung to bring her to my house."
Weird sounds, but Mina's cooking skills were truly excellent.
Whoever it was, her husband must be very happy.
Pretty face, good personality, great figure, nice hair, great cooking, great exercise, all-rounder.
If it were Mina, she could date any man she wanted.
Honestly, any man would think Mina was precious.
"Jiyoung, what do you want to drink?"
"Coke."
"Coke? Okay, I'll buy it right away."
"No. That was a joke. No need to buy again. Want banana milk?"
I always felt bad eating, so even when friends refused saying they had allowance, I tried to buy.
Can't eat from cute beings or something.
Moreover, friends knew my family situation well and always considered me.
Even my sister tried to give me more allowance, but I said I only wanted the minimum.
Mina's parents had helped economically, but my sister and I refused, so my sister alone was feeding me.
Of course, I couldn't refuse gifts or food.
The money saved was considerable.
"Jiyoung, seriously thinking about doing an internet broadcast?"
"I'm a bit considering it, but I don't have any content."
"Content? Why do you need that? You are there."
"Want to do a boring broadcast without anything to show off? Too much free riding?"
"Why is it not fun? Just because of your cuteness, just watching makes me happy."
"Yeah. You can just sleep and viewers will come to watch."
"Ai, that's not it?"
"People don't know how obsessed they are with cute things."
"Yeah, people spend 1.2 million won to raise dogs or cats."
"I'm not a pet. I'm not that cute."
"?"
"?"
"?"
Everyone looked at me with dumbfounded expressions.
It was true.
If there were 10 cats, would I be 5?
"Seriously think I'm less cute than cats?"
"It is true. Cats are so small and cute."
"Human cuteness and animal cuteness are completely different. People are the cutest after all."
"Yeah. Beasts can't beat you."
I didn't know why everyone was going crazy saying I was cute.
Personally, it was true, but I thought they were overdoing it.
Many people had told me I was cute when they saw me, so now I was just accepting it.
