My Girlfriend Is a Shaman

8 – Nobleman #1

Sera’s parents definitely said they would return home tomorrow afternoon.

It seemed like the return time was faster than expected.

“Uh, okay. Okay. There’s nothing going on at home. I’ll hang up.”

After ending her call, Sarah quickly turned her head and looked at me.

“Hey! My parents are coming now!”

“Really? Where are you now?”

“I think we’re all the way to the house!”

Just as Sarah said, the sound of the yard gate opening rang outside the house. People who I thought were Sarah’s parents were approaching the house. Suddenly, I get to meet Sarah’s parents here? It was completely unexpected.

But Sarah didn’t seem to want to show me to her parents. He spoke urgently to me in a tone as if something big would happen if he was found out.

“What are you doing? Quickly hide out of sight!”

“Hide? Why?”

“It would be embarrassing if they found out I was home with a boy! And it’s night! What will your parents think of you?”

What would you think?

I guess they think they are friends. They are only 10 year old kids.

I didn’t think much of it, but Sarah seemed to have a lot on her mind.

“Come this way!”

Sarah looked around her and she quickly grabbed my wrist and led me to her room. It was my first time entering a girl’s room my age, but I didn’t have time to take my time taking my time to admire it. Sarah laid me down on her bed and pulled the blanket over her head.

I covered Sarah’s bed with a blanket and hid.

You might ask if it was hidden, but there were a lot of dolls on Sarah’s bed. There were many large dolls, so if they were cleverly covered with blankets, it would be hard to tell whether they were people or dolls lying down.

“It’s okay, it’s okay! Stay quiet! I’ll secretly send you outside when your parents aren’t looking.”

“Eup-eup-eup.”

After all, the place to hide people is not in the closet, but on the bed. Isn’t this the bed where Sarah usually lies down when she sleeps? As I was lying down with the blanket completely covered, I smelled a girl’s unique sweet smell, which made me feel really dizzy.

The sound of the front door lock opening rang out.

It seemed like Sarah’s parents had entered the house. Actually, even if I came in, I was hiding on the bed so I couldn’t see anything. I could only feel Sarah’s parents approaching us by hearing footsteps.

“Oh my! It’s Sarah. You were in your room?”

“Oh my daughter. You were very bored alone while mom and dad were away, weren’t you?”

Soon Sarah’s parents came into the room.

When I heard their voices nearby, my heart started pounding as well. It would have been better if I had just stayed in the living room and been caught. But I felt like if I was caught hiding on the bed, something very wrong would go wrong.

‘A boy hiding in his daughter’s bed…’ . If you get caught, you’re out… ‘

I was careful to even breathe while covering myself with the blanket.

I could hear Sarah having a casual conversation with her parents right next to me.

“Hello, Mom and Dad, I had a good time on my own. I also went to school well.”

“So? Nothing special happened at home, right?”

“Of course nothing much happened.”

Sarah answered casually when her mother asked if anything was going on. The fact that she could hide me right next to me and act like nothing happened was truly not an ordinary girl.

“Really? But why are there so many bags of snacks in the living room? Did you invite a friend over?”

“…A friend? You know that I don’t usually invite other kids to my house.”

“So you’re saying you ate all those snacks by yourself?”

“Yes. I really want to eat snacks today.”

However, Sarah’s mother talking to her was also not normal.

Sera’s mother let out a meaningful laugh.

“hehehe!”

“Why, why are you smiling?”

“My daughter, you’re very good at acting! But why don’t you take the shoes out of the shoe rack and start acting?”

“Ah…!”

Sera was speechless. Only then did I remember my black sneakers that I had left in the shoe closet. Sarah’s mother seemed to have already noticed that she had an unfamiliar pair of shoes. Sarah, who spoke her words naturally, could no longer take her time.

“Is there anyone at home?”

“Eh….”

“Who on earth is this? The person who stayed with my daughter until this late at night.”

It’s all wrong. Now that things were like this, she had no choice but to attack head-on.

I was hiding on the bed, pulled back the blanket and proudly revealed myself.

“That kid is me!”

I spoke confidently and looked around the room. Only then did Sarah’s parents, who had been hidden behind a blanket, come into clear view.

A woman with hair as fine as ebony and a white man with pure white silver hair entered Sarah’s room. These were Sarah’s parents, whom I mentioned last time. Her mother, who practices shamanism, and her father, who is Swedish.

Sera’s parents were surprised to see me suddenly appear.

“Hey, were you hiding under the blanket? It felt like there was someone else inside.”

“Holy sh*t! There’s a boy jumping out of my daughter’s bed!”

Both of them looked wary of me. In particular, my father’s side became more wary of me by yelling with a foreign accent.

“Haaa!!”

A tall, white man with a beard around his mouth was screaming. Although I was scared for a moment, I quickly got off the bed and explained the situation to them.

“Calm down. My name is Jinwoo Kim. I’m Sarah’s friend from the same school.”

“A friend from the same school? But why is she jumping out of bed so arrogantly!”

“Originally, I was planning to say hello to the two of you properly. But Sarah said she was embarrassed and tried to hide me…”

I told the story of what happened today on the spot. She stayed home late at night after playing with Sarah. Then, her parents came back early and Sarah was so embarrassed that she tried to hide me.

“…That’s why I was hiding in bed.”

The explanation has been completed.

Sera’s father, who was about to make a fuss, calmed down after hearing what I said.

“I see! Are you saying my daughter hid you?”

“Yes.”

“You didn’t hide in bed. I’m sorry for suddenly yelling.”

“No! I jumped out of bed all of a sudden, so that’s surprising.”

Although he was a white man, Sarah’s father was fluent in Korean. Although he sometimes had a habit of mixing English with his speech, he was fortunate enough to speak it well. When her misunderstanding was cleared up, Sarah glanced at me and added her condolences to her parents.

“You heard everything Jinwoo said, right? Don’t worry, nothing bad happened. I was just embarrassed to have brought a boy home, so I hid it.”

“What were you ashamed of?”

“Dad…! Do I really have to explain that with my mouth?”

The tension eased a little. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved. I thought I should go back to my house. Originally, I had planned to sleep at Sarah’s house, but now my parents have come. No parent would like a boy sleeping over at their daughter’s house.

I wouldn’t know if it was the same s*x.

Because I was a boy.

I have no choice but to go home.

“Have a good time everyone. I’ll go home.”

“Jinwoo, are you going home?”

“Okay, let’s go back. Watching a movie today was fun.”

“…I had fun too.”

It was a little disappointing to part ways like this.

But it was when I was about to leave Sarah’s house.

“Wait a minute.”

Sera’s mother, who had been quiet all this while, blocked my path.

Sarah’s mother was just staring at me from the moment I appeared. But as she was about to leave the house, she suddenly stopped me. I had no choice but to stop as I was about to leave the room.

“Yes?”

“You said your name was Kim Jin-woo, right?”

“Yes…”

She was the mother of Sarah, who was rumored to be a spiritual shaman in the neighborhood. Sera’s mother, called Hwayeon Bodhisattva, was quite a beauty, but she had a scary side to her. The clothes she usually wore were black, her eye makeup was dark, and her skin was pale.

“Kim Jin-woo….”

“Well, is there something you don’t like?”

“Wait a moment.”

Sarah’s mother grabbed my shoulder and prevented me from leaving the room. The moment she suddenly grabbed me by the shoulder, I was startled. At that time, I had a scary image of shamans.

“Mom? Why are you holding on to Jinwoo?”

“There’s a reason for that. Everyone stay quiet. Even you, Eric!”

“Okay.”

Sarah’s mother quieted her family and asked me a question.

“Jinwoo, what is your name? I’m asking about Chinese characters.”

“Kim Jin-woo (金進祐). I use the characters ‘geum’, ‘jin’ to move on, and ‘woo’ to help.”

“Is this your first child? And what is your birth time and date?”

“I am the eldest son and have no younger siblings. I was born at 3:10 am on August 27, 2006.”

Why are you asking so much? While answering in a daze, I became nervous as I thought about what might happen. I thought he might curse me by asking for my personal information. Are you putting a curse on the boy who dared to touch your daughter?

‘…… No way. ‘Is Sarah’s mother trying to curse me?’

It was right then.

“Kim Jin-woo…? If you compare it to when Sarah was born…”

Sarah’s mother, who was muttering something, opened her eyes wide when she looked at me after a while.

A voice mixed with exclamation flowed from her mouth.

“Ear, noble…!!”

Noble?

“A nobleman has appeared!”

Doesn’t noble mean a valuable person? Sarah’s mother let go of her hand that was holding my shoulder and smiled brightly. Everyone except her was embarrassed to see her incomprehensible behavior.

“Woman, honey? What do you mean? That boy is a nobleman?”

“Mom? What on earth did you see in Jinwoo?”

Sarah’s mother laughed as she explained to everyone what she had seen.

“This child named Kim Jin-woo will become our daughter’s noblewoman in the future. As soon as I saw her, I felt a strong energy, but after unraveling the fortune, it became clear. She has the fortune to become a noblewoman for thousands of dollars.”

“What is Cheon-eul noble again, honey?”

“He is a nobleman whom the god of heaven helps. He is the best among nobles.”

A noble person meant a person who helped others and made their lives easier. Actually, I didn’t know any more details than that. No matter how much I was interested in mysteries, I couldn’t even study the fortune telling.

Sera’s mother looked at me with a smile.

“It’s not right to just send away someone who will be your daughter’s nobleman. It’s late, so sleep at my house.”

“Huh? Can I sleep in?”

“As much as you want.”

I really don’t know what’s going on.

But the good news was that thanks to Saju, I was able to sleep at Sarah’s house. To be honest, I didn’t want to go home in the middle of the night.
