Plot
After living and dying while paying off my father’s debts, I woke up possessing an extra in a novel.
All I had was a single abandoned shack by the sea, but…
‘I never thought the side job I used to do—tide pooling—would come in handy here.’
Tidal flats? That’s my specialty. Let me show you how it’s done.
Just as I was making plans to live well on my own, I accidentally witnessed a kidnapping and saved a seven-year-old orphan named Baron.
“Do I really have to go to the orphanage?”
“……”
How could I turn away from those pretty purple eyes? I just couldn’t.
Once we started living together, Baron turned out to be incredibly affectionate.
“sister, I’m strong.”
“Can you carry me? And give me a goodnight kiss before bed.”
“sister, it’s thundering outside. I’m scared. Hold me.”
With such an adorable face, how could I not indulge him?
I raised him with all the love and care I had, until one day, he brought me a marriage registration form.
“I want to marry sister!”
Is this what they call the “I want to marry Mom” phase that sons go through?
I firmly refused, thinking it was absurd, but Baron started throwing a childish tantrum.
“I love sister! I’m going to marry you! If you won’t marry me, I won’t eat!”
…What could I do? A child has to eat.
So, I signed the marriage registration form.
“If you still feel the same when you’re all grown up, write your name here then. Understood?”
“Yes, sister. I’ll grow up fast and come back for you.”
“Sure, sure.”
At the time, I never thought the marriage registration would actually be valid. A minor’s document wouldn’t even be accepted by the court, and it would be over ten years before he became an adult.
Ah, I had no idea it was a trick!
