His Mischievous Time-Traveler: How To Capture A Celebrity Husband?

Chapter 137: Better luck in convincing

Ever since Little Hae started going to school, I get bored easily.

Laying down on my couch, I sigh. Life has changed so much in the last six months. Since I came back, things have been chaotic. Now, it's peaceful.

My brother finally gave up on me and married his girlfriend. They are currently on honeymoon. Young Hwa and Yeon Seo are also married. My best friend Yoon Mi also got married two months ago. Basically, people around me seem to be getting married.

I don't want to get married 'again'. Little Hae is more than enough.

Sometimes, I can't help but wonder what Kang Si An will do. I do hear rumours of him dating actresses, but I know enough to know how much is true. Kang Si An comes here every day to spend time with Little Hae. Apart from work and sleep at his apartment, he's here all the time.

Then, when does he get the time to date anyone?

I have tried talking to my parents about moving to my own place. It was declined right away. They want to live with Little Hae. It was okay if I live. Little Hae can't go.

It's okay to kick daughter out, but granddaughter cannot leave.

"Mommy!" Little Hae darts in my direction. Shortly behind her, Jae Hyun and Ha-Neul are coming. I see that Kim Taeho isn't here yet.

"Little Hae." I smile at her. "How was school today?"

"It was okay." She grins at me. "Mommy, can Hyun come and live with us?"

I sigh. "I don't mind, but his parents won't like it."

This is an almost everyday conversation.

"Aunty, Little Hae should come and live with us." Ha-Neul stares at me. "Just give her to me. I will take care of her. You can have Hyun."

"I want to live with Hae," Jae Hyun mutters. He peers at Little Hae.

Little Hae glances at him coyly.

This exchange...

Why do children grow up at exponential rate these days?

"Ahem!" Kim Taeho is standing beside me. "Was I too late?"

"No, it hasn't been long." I smile at him politely. Kang Si An and Kim Taeho have become friends faster than Yoon Miran and I. Lawyer Yoon is a peculiar one. Being her friend means being able to visit her house with Little Hae and let the kids play while she keeps herself locked in her office. I end up becoming the babysitter of three kids when Kim Taeho isn't around.

"Father, why can't Hae live with us?" Ha-Neul coils her arm around her father's leg. "I want a sister instead of a brother."

He becomes quiet and stares at Jae Hyun. Jae Hyun pecks Little Hae who returns it with a grin. Should I stop them? But they look so cute. So innocent. So pure. So ...

"You have better luck in convincing Little Hae to become your younger sister in law in the future."

I cough when I hear those words. What the...

"Sister in law?" Ha Neul frowns a bit. She turns to her younger brother. "Jae Hyun to marry Little Hae?"

"Don't give them ideas," I tell Kim Taeho. "They aren't even four yet."

He rolls his eyes. "Kids grow up fast these days."

"Little Hae, marry my younger brother.." Ha-Neul grabs my Hae's hands. "Then, you can come to our house and live with us."

Jae Hyun nods. "I will marry Hae when we become adults."

Little Hae blinks at them. "But, I don't want to leave mommy and daddy."

Aww! My daughter is loyal to me.

Jae Hyun smiles at her. "Then, everyone can live together."

Ha-Neul nods approvingly. "All of us can live together."

Kim Taeho sighs and says, "Miran doesn't like crowdy places."

"..."

I am starting to understand how Kang Si An feels.

When we come back home, Kang Si An is already there. His work is highly irregular. He comes whenever he's free. I would prefer if he comes less frequently.

"Daddy." Little Hae sits on his lap. "I made this for you."

Kang Si An opens the card. I don't know what's written inside. Last week, she made one for me. She wrote why she loved her Mommy. I am guessing that this card is something similar.

"Little Hae..." I hear his voice cracking. The guy is emotional again. When it comes to Little Hae, he wouldn't even think twice before shamelessly crying or acting out on his emotions. "I love you, Little Hae. You are the best daughter in the world."

Of course, she is.

I click my tongue and take snacks to the table. "Little Hae, go wash your hands first."

"Yes, mommy." She climbs off his lap and goes to wash her hands. I stare at Kang Si An who is still looking at the card with teary eyes.

"Will you stop?" Seeing him gives me a headache sometimes. "It's hard to believe that you were a revered general once."

"Receiving this is more valuable than receiving any honor from the emperor," He replies with a heavy tone. "I feel as if my life is complete."

He's changed. In the last six months, he has shown me how much he loves Little Hae.

"Daddy." Little Hae comes back and takes her seat in his lap again. "I will marry Hyun and all of us will live together."

"..." You didn't need to tell him that.

He opens his mouth. His eyes are widened in shock. His skin becomes pale as the dead. "What did you say?"

"Hyun will marry me, Daddy." She beams at him. "Then, Hyun can stay with us."

"Kyuri, what is she saying?" Kang Si An looks at me, crestfallen.

Not again.

"She's a child. Don't take her words seriously." I get up, ready to run away. He's going to nag me again for introducing a boy to his daughter. How would I have known that things would turn out like this? "These kids don't even know what marriage is."

"Little Hae, you absolutely can't marry him." Kang Si An ignores me. "You aren't allowed to date until you are 40. Boys are bad for your health."
