Me and the Tigress Volume 1 Chapter 1 part1

I'm publishing these because I want to get someone who knows Korean a lot better than me to translate this series. Korean-speakers, please contact me by e-mailing “[email protected]”

시작! Start!

Anybody must have felt their heart beating out of their chest. Like when showing your parents the worst report card ever, or when the evil executive you fought with who you thought was a complete stranger was actually your dad (not sure about that dad part. Sorry), for example, or that the girl you like turned out to be a boy.

Now, in a situation where my heart's beating hard, I too understand. Since I'm giving the confession of a lifetime.  My life will change based on how this confession goes.

The target of my confession, the slightly arrogant and dignified Miss Seo Narae, stands before me. Our class president and my childhood friend, she's the girl I like. Her shoulder length, half-curly hair is waving, and because of her sharply rising eyes that made her look a little fierce, it was easy to tell her personality. So then,

"The hell is it? If you want to say something, spit it out already!"

"Ah, sorry."

She gets angry easily. Of course, I understand Narae's feelings. Class was over and she was going with friends to play when I of all people grabbed her and brought her to the secluded place behind the gym. Folding her arms and looking nervously at me, I know for sure that the mood was bad.

But Narae. Don't make that pose. Since it makes your already huge breasts stick out even more. If you compare her to our other classmates, her popularity's so high that it's pitiful for the other children-, ……what am I thinking about right now. Get yourself together, Kang Sunghoon. You, who was simply childhood friends with Narae, are the one that's going to totally upheave your relationship with Narae?

With a confession to date me!

"Hey, Narae."

"What."

Na, Narae's always gotten angry easily, so don't be intimidated by her cold response, me.

"……Um, the thing is."

One step. I just need to take one more step! Keep it up! Being unable to confess here means you're not a man! I have no time to spare. Look! Narae's so angry now that her face turned red!

"I-."

It was then.

A familiar cell phone ring tone cut off my words.

"Just, just one sec."

I was cursing the caller to become impotent for generations for that damn timing when I found it was actually my dad, so I stopped.

What the hell is it? Does he want me to hurry back and make food for him?

"What……"

[You need to hurry back home.]

"I was going to go in just a bit even if you hadn't told me to."

[There's an urgent matter. Come home now.]

Meaning he doesn't know his own child's circumstances. Because I got upset I also unknowingly replied.

"What the hell is it?! The side dishes are in the refrigerator, I made rice, you don't need to do the dishes, I also did the laundry, ironed the clothes we'll wear, threw away the compost when I left, and the newspaper's on top of the dining table!"

……I was shocked to find I was in front of Narae. She was still there, looking at me with pitying eyes. Since she knows full well my domestic circumstances. Because mom doesn't come home often because of her work and dad's a patient with uncommon laziness, our family situation is that I have to do housework in their place.

For now this damn father should hang up. But dad spoke, blowing away what I'd assumed.

[Ah, it's nothing special. Just that my dad died?]

Dad's dad. In other words, my grandfather?!
