"Daddy, I wanna hold the snake!" The little girl screamed and pointed at Rapunzel in Yuta's neck. Yuta smiled to himself as he let a little boy stroke the Burmese python's body gently, not daring to touch harder. As the man and the little girl stepped forward to him, he looked up at them.
"Come on, ask the gentleman nicely," the man said, nudging the girl's shoulder gently. She looked up onto him, before she raised her gaze to meet Yuta's.
"Can I hold the snake?" she asked in a softer tone, her eyes glistening nervously. Yuta crouched down to be on her level. He felt the snake move a little, wrapping her tail onto his arm softly before turning her head to look around.
"You know, she may be just a little heavy for you to hold, but I can put her head in your hand if she also wants it," she said, and the girl quickly nodded. He gave her a big smile. "Hold out your hands." He could see the girl's father watching every move of his nervously as he repositioned the sneak on his shoulders so her head was in his hand and she could put it in the girl's hand. He held the rest of her firmly.
"Wow," the little girl whispered in awe, her big eyes fixated on the creature. She giggled when the sneak's tongue lightly fawned over her skin.
"What's her name?" The man asked and crouched down next to his daughter and carefully petted the sneak.
"Her name is Rapunzel," Yuta answered, looking up for a seconds. He saw Taeyong entering the room and slowly walking beside the wall so he wouldn't get in the visitors' way.
"Like the princess?" the girl smiled brightly, looking up at Yuta for a second before she turned her gaze onto Rapunzel again. She stroked her head softly. Yuta chuckled.
"Yeah, just like the princess." Rapunzel moved again, so Yuta adjusted his hold on her again. Taeyong stepped to them, leaning down so he was closer to the girl and smiled kindly to them.
"I'm very sorry to interrupt, but we need to clear out to room so the next lesson can be prepared," he said in a soft tone, which caused all three of them to look at him. Yuta was already used to seeing Taeyong every day, so he wasn't affected by his beautiful smile, but he could tell the little girl was immediately charmed.
"Is Jaehyun here already?" he asked, breaking the moment. Taeyong looked at him and straightened his back. The dad softly told his daughter to let go of the sneak but the girl insisted.
"Yeah. And it wouldn't be nice if Rapunzel decided to snack on Ratatouille or Giselle." Hearing this, Yuta reached back for Rapunzel's carrier, pulling the huge box in front of himself.
"Rata..tull?" the girl tried to say it too as she let Yuta pull Rapunzel away from her. Taeyong nodded as he hugged his stack of papers to his chest.
"Yes, Ratatouille. He's a rat and Giselle is a guinea pig. They are one of stars of our rodent show, that will be held here soon," he said calmly. The girl let her father take her hand, not paying any mind to him.
"Maybe we'll come and see it some other time," the man spoke up, so the girl turned to him. "But we need to go home now or Mom will worry." The girl pouted but let her father pull her away.
"Bye" she said softly before running with her father. Yuta and Taeyong smiled at her and waved.
"Goodbye," they said in synch and watched them walk away. Then Yuta grabbed Rapunzel's box, lifted it up and walked out of small little house in front of Taeyong who hoisted up the other box. It wasn't even really house, just a small little place with a bunch of chairs and a big desk in the front. It wasn't much or big and it was perfect for holding educational shows inside every once in a while. Jaehyun was already waiting outside a few boxes and some cages that held Ratatouille and Giselle. Ratatouille ran around while Giselle watched them, completely unbothered.
