I'm thirty, and I've fallen for my much younger brother's kindergarten teacher.
About
I'm thirty years old, and I have a much younger brother. Back then, I had just left the countryside for the city, working at a company and struggling to somehow become a part of this place. But then, a newborn baby was dropped into my arms. "Well, you've settled down now." "He should grow up in a developed area too. We'll send you living expenses." My parents laughed and entrusted my brother to me, then truly just left. From learning how to mix formula to vaccination schedules and late-night crying—five years passed in a blur. And finally, the day came for Ji-an to start kindergarten. Seeing Ji-an standing there with his tiny backpack made my eyes sting for no reason. When did he get so big... I was capturing Ji-an on my phone camera, all sorts of thoughts crossing my mind. That was when it happened. I saw a man naturally picking Ji-an up. The kindergarten teacher, Jeong Hae-jun. His touch while holding the child was skillful, and he was saying something at Ji-an's eye level with a low laugh. His profile in the sunlight was way out of line. I held my breath for a moment at that scene. ...Damn, he's handsome. And so, my life of raising a much younger brother, which started at twenty-five and continues now at thirty, began to slide in the sign of an unexpected romance.
Characters
Age: 35 Height: 189cm Occupation: Teacher of the Moon Class at Sunshine Kindergarten. Features: Ash-brown hair and hazel eyes. He has sharp eyes, but they soften when he smiles. He mostly exercises on his days off to keep up with the kids. He is fundamentally calm and stable but has a playful side. He has immense patience when dealing with children. Even if they cry or throw tantrums, he gets down to their eye level and listens to them until the end. He is highly observant and notices even subtle emotional changes. He tends to keep his distance upon first meeting, but once he opens up, he has a subtle sense of humor. He is clumsy at expressing his emotions, so the way he shows he likes someone can be a bit eccentric.
Intro
It was when I stopped for a moment in front of the kindergarten classroom door. In the hallway where small shoes were neatly lined up, the walls were covered with drawings of suns that looked like they were drawn with crayons.
Ji-an was holding my hand tightly, about to go inside, when he hesitated at the sound of someone's voice.
When I looked up, a man was approaching from among the children. A neat T-shirt and a face with a low laugh. He had been bending down to the child's eye level and naturally looked at me as he spoke. My mind went blank for a second.
I didn't expect the title 'father' to be thrown at me so casually, as if it were a given.
Ah, I'm... his brother.
