Chapter 25. I want that person to be happy, but at the same time I don’t want them to forget me.
The night market was more crowded than expected.
Amid the crowd of people, Tails walked close to Chloe.
“There are more people than I thought.”
At the time Tail said that, Chloe wrapped her arm around Tail’s.
As we made perfect contact, Chloe’s chest lightly touched his arm.
Tail’s face was stained with bewilderment.
“Chloe?”
Chloe mumbled with her cheeks flushed.
“Yeah, because I can’t fall.”
Chloe’s red cheeks were strangely stimulated.
There was silence.
Tale and Chloe were looking into each other’s eyes.
Were Tail’s eyes such a pretty color?
She couldn’t take her eyes off Tail’s eyes, and at the same time her heart raced.
It was so loud that I thought I could hear the tail.
At that moment, Tail’s face slowly approached.
‘Stop, no way!’
Chloe’s face turned redder.
My heart was beating almost like it would explode.
Kung. Thud. Thud. Thud.
Her ears seemed to be deafening.
It seemed like there were only two of them in the world, everyone around them turned earthy.
At some point, Tail’s face was right in front of Chloe’s nose.
Tail’s breath seemed to be entering her nose.
‘Po… kiss!’
This is perfect. Kiss. Each!
Chloe closed her eyes involuntarily.
‘Yes. You’re having your first kiss here.’
With such a cool person and people passing by.
‘What does it really feel like?’
What is a kiss?
I heard the maids talking.
‘They say kissing someone you like is ecstatic and exhilarating.’
Is that so?
I was waiting for Tail’s lips with a throbbing heart, but then I heard Tail’s voice right in front of me.
“Caught. You bastard.”
Huh? Catch what
Chloe’s eyes widened.
Her tail’s face was right next to her own.
He reached out and grabbed the arm of a child.
I saw a familiar pouch in the child’s hand.
“Huh?!”
It was Chloe’s money bag.
Tayl, holding the child’s hand, shouted in a harsh voice.
“This. Where are you trying to steal valuable money?”
Tale thought at the same time.
‘This is the water owner’s money to pay for today’s play!’
I’ve been worried about the people around me since a while ago, but to hear it was a pickpocket.
“Chit. Did you catch it?”
The pickpocket pouted out his mouth and pushed Tail’s hand with all his might.
“Huh?”
The force was so strong that the tail staggered.
Taking a cluttered atmosphere, the pickpocket disappeared into the crowd.
“Ai. This son of a b*tch. Just see you again.”
Tail muttered that and brushed his hands.
In the meantime, Chloe was still frozen.
“Chloe?”
When Tail called, Chloe was looking at Tails with a deep, self-deprecating smile.
However, his eyes were burning brightly.
It was like a mixture of resignation and anger.
‘What. What? Did I do something wrong?’
Seeing her looking quite displeased, Tails hurriedly looked around her.
‘Somewhere, Chloe-sama can change her mood….’
At that time, Tail saw a dart board.
“Darts! 3 Crowns out of 10! If you match all 10 balloons, we will give you cotton candy as a gift!”
Cotton candy!
Here in the world, it was cotton candy that was classed as a delicacy and special street food.
Almost 20 crowns each for street food.
Seeing that the daily wage of an ordinary commoner is 30 crowns, I have said it all.
It’s quite expensive, but nobles didn’t enjoy it because it was invented by commoners.
‘I’m sure you’ve never eaten a claw.’
If this is the case, it will probably ease Chloe’s mood enough.
Tale led Chloe by the arm to the darts.
“Me. I will try.”
At Tail’s words, the owner smiled and said.
“Oh. Great. Why don’t you try it while the girl next to you is waiting?”
The owner seduced Chloe in a calm tone.
And after thinking for a while, Chloe nodded her head.
“Okay. I will try too.”
After paying first, the owner gave 10 darts each to two people.
“Throw this dart and pop the balloon you see over there. If you pop ten balloons, I’ll give you a present.”
Chloe hesitated as if it was her first time playing darts.
“Tail. You do it first I’ll see what you do and follow suit.”
Tail said he would understand and took a stance.
The distance from the balloon was quite far.
‘But it’s worth doing.’
Even now, I was pretty good at darts in my previous life.
Tails threw the dart in his hand.
Shuuu!
The dart that flew through the air hit the balloon exactly.
Puong!
One of the balloons burst.
“Okay!”
At least one success!
Tail immediately repositioned himself.
***
After that, Tail led a total of 9 successes.
However.
“What!”
The last one changed its trajectory and got stuck next to the balloon.
‘Ice.’
It was almost finished.
Called the owner with a big smile from behind.
“Ouch~ It’s such a waste~ Girl. Would you like to start?”
The hesitant Chloe asked the hostess.
“Do you have any tips?”
No one expected anything from her appearance, as if it was her first time playing darts.
So the host answered with a light heart.
“It’s a tip…. Ah! The person who received the gift earlier told me that he did it while thinking of a person he hated and hated, so he said it was good.”
Saying that, the owner smiled kindly.
“I heard you stick it in his head. Of course it must be a joke, right?”
The owner’s smile mixed with Malel Chloe nodded her head with a serious expression.
“A nasty person. Nasty person….”
Muttering that, Chloe’s eyes turned to Tails.
“Chloe?”
When Tail called, Chloe smiled broadly and grabbed the dart.
“You’re a nasty person.”
Her eyes flashed momentarily.
It was as if life were being shot.
“Yes. I hate you so much.”
She threw the dart in her hand.
Whewyyyyy-!
The dart flew at a tremendous speed.
Puuuong!
It got stuck in one of the balloons and it exploded with a loud noise.
Chloe did not stop.
“Why?”
Hwieee
“Jiji.”
Wheei- Boom!
“First!”
Wheei- Perong!
“Come and let go!”
Wheei- Perong!
It was already the 5th.
Already, the people around her shut her mouth at the sight of her throwing darts, and Chloe’s eyes were almost full of madness.
“A while ago!”
Wheei- Boom!
It was the 6th.
“While doing what I would do!”
Four darts caught between Chloe’s five fingers.
“Why aren’t you kissing me!”
-Aren’t you doing it!
-Aren’t you doing it!
As her cry echoed, Chloe quickly threw the four darts that were in her hands as she was.
Pabababak!
The darts flew at tremendous speed and were stuck in each of the four balloons.
And then.
Boom! Pop! Perong! Pop!
All four balloons burst.
“Heo Eok. Huh.”
Chloe held her breath as if the energy consumption was high.
People who gathered at the darts hall and saw this scene opened their mouths.
The owner also had a dazed expression on his face, then suddenly came to his senses and clapped.
“Wow, great!”
Other people who finally came to their senses clapped.
“Wow. Oh my god! No kidding!”
“Aren’t you the god of darts?”
A voice that can be heard hummingly.
Chloe grinned when she successfully completed her first dart game.
It was a very relieved expression.
* * *
A moment later, Chloe had a large cotton candy in her hand.
“Wow.”
Mokomoko.
Softly.
At a glance, it was unusual that it looked like a cloud.
“Try it.”
Chloe’s eyes widened at Tail’s words.
“This. Are you eating?”
So what did you think?
Tale couldn’t bear to say that.
She took a small piece of her cotton candy and brought it to her mouth instead.
“Try it once. You will love it.”
Chloe opened her mouth slightly and ate the cotton candy he gave her.
The cloud-like thing immediately melted in her warm mouth.
A sweet taste that can be felt at the tip of the tongue at the same time.
“Taste, delicious!”
Chloe’s eyes sparkled.
She tore off her cotton candy and put it back in her mouth.
“This is the first time I’ve tried this kind of food.”
“Yes. It’s expensive among street foods, so it’s hard to find.”
He only heard about cotton candy when he came here, but it was the first time he had seen it.
“But were you good at darts?”
“No? Are you trying it for the first time?”
Tail tilted her head at Chloe’s words.
“You were doing really well earlier.”
“Ah. You got a tip earlier.”
“Are you thinking of a mean person?”
Chloe replied with a smile.
“Yes. I hate him, but I love him so much.”
Chloe’s eyes deepened.
“The kind of person who I love so much that I want you to only look at me.”
Chloe’s eyes were directly on her tail.
“That’s why I want that person to be happy. At the same time, I don’t want him to forget me.”
Tale listened to her words silently.
“If.”
The moonlight was shining brightly on her.
The neat and beautiful appearance of Chloe felt unrealistic.
Chloe’s words continued slowly.
“If there is such a person. What will you do with Tail?”
