A-Nueng came to my room again. Initially, I intended to threaten her immediately because I didn't want to give her another chance to explore my room. But once I heard why she was angry with Piengfah, I forgot everything and took my friend's daughter to my room. She can do whatever she wants. SHE'S WELCOME.

If the cheerful child knew that what her mother said was true, how would she react? This was surprising, even to me. I never invite anyone to my room because it's my personal space. I'm the only person allowed into my world. The child has made great progress by being in my room for the third time. She's just a friend's daughter. This doesn't mean she can come to my room whenever she wants. Not even Sam can.

"You have a novel?"

The cheerful child ran to my bedside table and sat on the bed. She didn't even notice that I had carefully made my bed so tight that if you threw a coin on it, it would bounce. That's enough.

"Ah-huh."

"It's Pluto. It's very popular right now. I told you about it: 'There is no reason when it comes to love. If there is, it's not love.'"

"I bought it because you said so. Ar-Nueng doesn't usually read novels."

"What?"

Suddenly, A-Nueng looked at me and lifted the novel to cover her face, feeling embarrassed. Her strange reaction made me squirm uncomfortably.

"Why are you hiding your face behind a novel? What do you want to say? Say it now.".

"I was going to ask you since that day at the school event, but I thought I heard wrong. You called yourself 'Auntie'. I was too shy to look you in the eye."

When the kid said that, I was the one who was embarrassed. But I can't show it or I'll look like a loser. That's not me at all.

"What's weird? You're my best friend's daughter."

"You usually just use 'I'. But this is good. I feel a little closer to you."

The cheerful child gave me her Duchenne smile. It made me smile lovingly.

"I feel like you're gentle with me when you use 'Auntie'."

"Well, you are my nephew. I have to be gentle with you."

"Then I don't like it. Use the word 'I' like before. I don't want to be your nephew. I'm frustrated just thinking about it."

A-Nueng whined. I didn't argue with her because I wanted to wait for her to tell me what she said.

"My mom said she fell in love with you when she was at school. Fell in love with you, romantically."

"Why would she say that to her daughter?"

"Because I told her that I like you and want to be your lover."

Oh, this is what mother and daughter talk about these days? So love between people of the same sex is widely accepted now, I thought. But wouldn't it feel awkward if a mother told her daughter that she likes a woman? I wanted to exclaim and put my hand over my mouth, but that wasn't cool to do.

"Maybe she was joking and not serious?"

"My mother was so serious that she accused you of almost killing me."

Gasp!

I nervously watched the little girl as she complained about her mother before delving deeper.

"Did your mother explain to you how you almost died?"

"She admitted that you gave her medicine so she could get rid of me. Oh my! Did she really think I would believe that? She didn't want to keep me. She should blame herself, not her friend. But, never mind. I don't care what she says. She never even raised me, but now acts as if she really loves me. She said she had good intentions when she told me to stop liking you and gave me this stupid excuse."

After saying that, A-Nueng just lay down on my bed and read my novel. I completely forgot how much I hated other people rolling around in my bed because, compared to what I did in the past, this was nothing.

"Have you finished the novel?"

"I haven't even started yet."

"Do you want me to read it to you?"

"Didn't you finish it?"
