Chapter 70: Baek Ahyeong and Volunteer Activities! (2)
Baek Ahyeong and Volunteer Activities! (2)
Sunshine Orphanage was a place where children who have become orphans due to dungeons or gates gather. But even so, the children here always had smiles on their faces. Whether it was because of the director's abilities or the children's resilience, it was a good thing. The daycare teachers also had a strong bond with the children since they worked in such a positive atmosphere. Even us the volunteers couldn't help but form strong bonds with these kids in such a positive atmosphere. Yep, I was no exception.
"Hey, big bro! Can I get in on this too? Airplane ride!"
"Sure thing. Here we go Wheee!"
"Hahaha! Go higher!"
Man, this is way more exhausting than it looks.
The girls from the orphanage were lining up, eager for their turn to ride my "airplane." And since the girl who went before would take her spot right at the back, there was no end to it.The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via N0v3l-B1n.
"Big sis, um, can I ride the airplane too?"
"Come over here."
"Yes, yes, I'm coming"
The boy waiting for his turn in front of Alice blushed like a tomato. He squeezed his eyes shut, gripping Alice's hand tightly as he soared through the imaginary sky.
That kid's already making moves on her before his hair's even dry Man, I'm seriously envious. I want to ride Alice's airplane too.
"Alright! The whole airplane ride scene looks fantastic!" Since the photographer who had been snapping our pictures gave the green light, we decided to wrap up the airplane rides.
"Okay, everyone. Since each of you got to enjoy an airplane ride, let's switch things up. How about I show you some 8-step juggling?"
"8-step juggling?"
Alice, who had been listening nearby, turned her head in surprise. With my mana on the rise and my control improving, I could now juggle fireballs with my eyes closed.
"Alright, here we go. It's not something I do all the time, you know~"
Swoosh!
"Ooooh" As the fireballs danced above my hand, all the children's eyes were glued to me.
"Wow, big brother, you're so cool!"
"Big bro, teach me how!"
Their eyes sparkled with admiration. Even Alice, standing next to me, watched in wonder and said, "You're wasting such talent on juggling"
Don't you know how important juggling is?! I've been working hard to connect with these kids, but I'm not sure if it's paying off. Except for you, who instantly became a beloved older sister!
"Alright, everyone. Gather around." While everyone was captivated by my juggling, Baek Ahyeong approached the children with drinks in hand.
"Wow! Snacks!"
"Since the handsome big brother bought them, you should say thank you."
"Yes! Thank you, handsome big brother!"
"Thanks, big bro!"
"Yeah, enjoy."
Thanks to Liliana's hard work, there's plenty in my bank account. So, every time I visit, I buy snacks for them, and it's safe to say the folks at the orphanage appreciate it.
"Yup, Hoyeon's always reliable. He never forgets to bring snacks for the kids."
"Absolutely, and he even gets ours. It's a win-win."
"Yes, I always knew he'd become popular."
The daycare teachers standing by my side were showering me with praise, and they were quite the chatterboxes.
Well, it's not every day that you can create such a fuss with just a few tens of thousands of won. Not doing it would be foolish.
"Oh, come on, it's all in good manners."
"Young man, considering how many folks struggle with basic courtesy these days"
While I was having a chat with the teachers, Baek Ahyeong was engaged in a conversation with Alice.
"Alice, you've worked hard. You look tired, you can go take a break. I'll take over."
"I won't refuse. Thank you, Saint."
"This is your first time playing with the kids, right? It looks quite busy."
"Yes, it's a bit tiring, to be honest."
Ladies' chatter was always a delight; it lifted my spirits. Alice decided to take a break and hopped into the limousine that had just pulled up.
Why did the car change every time we met? Does she have that much money?
"Now, sis, what should we do?"
Baek Ahyeong just switched and was full of energy.
"I want to switch too" I sent a pleading look to the director, but all he did was smile warmly and look at me.
Well, it's a promotional event, and we need at least one person. With Alice gone, I had to step up.
"Ahh."
"Mom, what's wrong?"
"Uh, it's nothing," Baek Ahyeong replied while hugging the child tightly.
Even Hoyeon I have to help him. That child must have faced a tough life, she thought. The warmth in his eyes from their first meeting still lingered in Baek Ahyeong's memory.
Yes, he's definitely lost his way. That's why he's become so primal. I need to guide him and make sure that primal instinct doesn't affect others. But more importantly, I can't let him take it out on others
Baek Ahyeong continued her wild thoughts about Lee Hoyeon, brewing up plans to assist him.
"Alright, kids. Let's grab a snack and keep the fun going~" Just then, the director showed up, announcing snack time.
"Snacks!"
Whoosh! The children hurriedly went for their snacks, and later, they would either nap or enjoy indoor activities.
With the director and daycare teachers busy inside with the kids, only Baek Ahyeong and Lee Hoyeon remained in the yard. There was a moment of silence between them. Ahyeong wanted to start a conversation but couldn't quite figure out what to say.
Then, breaking the silence, Hoyeon spoke first, "Ahyeong, why did you come to see me?"
"To to see you? I just came for my usual volunteer work"
"Do you think I'm a fool? You came here specifically to see me."
How did he figure it out? Baek Ahyeong was surprised but managed to keep a nonchalant expression and said, "I need to have a chat with you. Follow me behind the building."
***
Baek Ahyeong's eyes flickered like a lost puppy's tail. However, her mouth and nose remained strangely composed.
Is that her idea of a poker face?
"I need to have a chat with you. Follow me behind the building," she said, heading to the back.
I have no clue why, but she wants me to follow her. She isn't seriously going to ask me to rape her, is she? Surely not?

What's all this about?
Considering her current status, I couldn't quite grasp her intentions, so I followed along for now. The way she swayed her hips felt oddly seductive.
"You What's your intention?" Finally, after reaching the back of the building, Baek Ahyeong spoke.
"What do you mean?"
"You took those pictures and then vanished without a word, without any threats or attacks What's your intention?!"
"Um" I pondered slowly. Asking her rapist why he hasn't contacted or threatened you is "So, are you suggesting I should threaten and violate you right here, right now?"
She's quite adept at turning the conversation around.
"No! Just be honest about what you're up to!"

Current Status: What if he still doesn't make a move? Should I beg him to delete the photos and start undressing?
The scorching heat oozed from Baek Ahyeong's eyes as she glared at me like a venomous serpent. She was harboring some seriously unsettling thoughts.
If things continue like this, what if we end up facing social consequences together? What's the rush all about?
"Yeah, right. Actually, I had plans to violate you today" I reluctantly played along with Baek Ahyeong's charade.
Honestly, I had considered holding back today due to the crowd and potential risks, but her determination left me little choice. Besides, it wouldn't hurt to test how much her affection level would skyrocket if we happened to have sex.
"As expected! I knew it! You beast!" Baek Ahyeong finally relaxed, her venomous gaze transforming into something gentler.
Her acting skills are abysmal. I silently swallowed my thoughts.
