My Girlfriend Is Very Good to Me

I turned nine. Of course, not much changed just because I was nine now.

Fortunately, Heena and I were in the same class again, so we were inseparable both at home and at school. We were already famous among the teachers - everyone knew us.

Except for bathroom breaks, we were always holding hands. We were the center of attention among the kids, never caused any trouble, and even excelled in all sorts of competitions.

We simply couldn't help but stand out. Plus, as our first-grade teacher had noted, just listening and following instructions earned us about 80% of people's goodwill.

Thanks to that, we were extremely popular not just with the other kids, but with the teachers too.

"Now that Heena's grown up a bit, shouldn't you two bathe separately?"

"I haven't grown at all. I'm still a little kid. So I can still bathe with Yeonho."

"What kind of little kid talks so well?"

"Heena still wittle. Wanna bathe with Yeonie."

"......"

"......"

As soon as she heard the aunt's coaxing, Heena started speaking in baby talk without hesitation. Her sudden change left both the aunt and me speechless.

Did she want to bathe with me that badly? I didn't mind, but it seemed a bit much for our families to see.

"Mom! Heena's gonna bathe with Yeonie!"

Regardless of our reactions, Heena said this while tightly gripping my hand. As if she absolutely wouldn't let me go alone.

The aunt sighed and looked at me this time. She knew it was impossible to persuade Heena.

"Yeonho. You're growing up too. Isn't it embarrassing to bathe with Heena?"

"Um... Yes. I should bathe separ-"

"Yeonho. We'll bathe together, right? Hm? You're not going to say no, are you? Hm? We'll go in together, right? Hm? Hm~?"

"...I want to bathe with Heena too."

"See, Mom!"

"......"

Before I could even finish my answer, Heena butted in with a leading question. I couldn't refuse when she pushed like this.

To be honest, I didn't mind bathing together - I just felt a bit awkward because of our families' reactions. Besides, bathing together was more fun than alone, and since she was my girlfriend, even if there were no sexual responses yet, there was always a bit of excitement.

But from the aunt's perspective, it probably looked like my answer came from Heena's pressure. Rather than blaming me, she looked at Heena with a face that said, "What am I going to do with you?"

Finally, the aunt let out a big sigh and made her decision.

"Lee Heena, only until this year. Got it? From next year, absolutely not."

Her voice had lost its usual gentleness and was filled with firmness.

"Okay! I got it! Hehe..."

But Heena easily agreed, completely unfazed by the aunt's tone.

The way she laughed mischievously, I could tell she was planning to throw another tantrum next year.

"Then we're going to take a bath! Can we have a bubble bath?"

"I've already prepared it, so make sure you wash up properly. You two can manage on your own, right?"

"Yes! Let's go, Yeonho!"

"We'll be back soon."

Nine years old.

Until then, we still bathed together. In the spacious bathtub, with Heena hugging me as I sat down first. Taking our time.

Of course, we didn't just wash our bodies. Even if we didn't do anything too naughty.

"Kiss my neck~"

"On your nape?"

"Yeah! Hurry~"

We were constantly kissing anyway, regardless of the place.

By the way, should I try to persuade her a bit from next year? It's starting to feel a bit risky.

---

Time passed again, and while our daily lives, including school, remained the same.

Right after turning ten.

"Lee Heena! Didn't Mom tell you? Absolutely not from this year!"

"No! I'm going to bathe with Yeonho!!"

"Honey! Say something too!"

"Ahem... Lee Heena! Are you going to keep throwing tantrums and not listening to your mom?!"

"I don't care!! I hate you, Dad!!"

"...Dear, this isn't working."

"Oh, for goodness' sake! Heena's dad, just go away!"

As the days repeated, if there was one thing that could raise the aunt's voice, it was the bathing issue.

To be honest, I wasn't surprised by this scene because I knew Heena would throw a tantrum again this year.

Heena usually listened so well and never cried, so when she did burst into tears, both her uncle and aunt became extremely weak.

Sure enough, the uncle had already been shot down by a single "I hate you," and the aunt's voice was gradually getting softer.

"Waaaaaah!!"

They simply couldn't scold Heena harshly as she wailed like the world was ending.

And as I watched this, as Heena's boyfriend, my heart ached for her pitiful cries... Well, honestly, my heart didn't ache at all.

Because of a conversation I had with Heena last year when we were in bed.

"If they don't let us bathe together next year, I'm just going to cry. If I cry, they'll definitely let us."

"Do you really have to go that far?"

"Of course! I don't want to bathe unless it's with you!"

"I like it when Heena bathes every day."

"Then I'll do it every day! We'll end up doing it together anyway, so I can do it every day!"

"You've already decided, huh."

It was a calculated cry. She had decided from the start that she'd cry if we couldn't bathe together. It looked incredibly pitiful, but it was full of ulterior motives.

The aunt, unable to do anything about Heena's crying, finally passed this issue on to my parents.

She knew that just as the aunt and uncle were weak to Heena, Heena was also weak to my mom and dad.

But Heena, who had been crying so pitifully at her house.

"Mother... Can't I bathe with Yeonho...?"

"Hmm..."

"This is... Well, at ten years old..."

"Please~"

"......"

"......"

The uncle and aunt who had followed us were left speechless at the sight of Heena, who had suddenly stopped crying and was now acting coy and cute. They probably never thought that her earlier crying was just an act.

Moreover, while it was true that Heena was weak to my parents, my parents were even weaker to Heena. They could never be strict with Heena, even if they might with me.

In the end, this ridiculous bathing battle ended in Heena's victory again this year.

"This is really the last year. Lee Heena, you understand? If you throw a tantrum like this again next year, you're really going to get punished!"

"Hehehe..."

"I'm going crazy..."

Now that she had gotten permission anyway, Heena just giggled in my arms, ignoring the aunt's threats.

What could I possibly say here?

The best answer was to just stay quiet.

---

And finally, at eleven years old.

"Mom."

"Yes?"

"I'm going to bathe with Yeonho. Even if you try to stop me, I'm going to do it."

"Oh my~ Coming on strong, are we? Fine. You know Mom bought a cane just in case, right?"

"I don't care! I'm going to do it with Yeonho!!"

"You come here right now! Didn't you promise Mom last year?!"

"If Yeonho and I are okay with it, why are you making such a fuss!"

"Lee Heena!!"

Heena had given up on her clumsy acting, and the aunt was no longer showing any mercy. A full-scale war had begun.

Just like last year, I took a step back and watched the fight. I even brought snacks and cola beforehand.

As I sat on the floor munching on snacks like I was watching a play, Heeseong oppa came out of his room, drawn by the commotion in the living room.

"What's all this about?"

"Want some Pepero, oppa?"

"No thanks. Hey, but..."

"What?"

He declined the snack I offered and lowered his voice, leaning close to my ear.

"Whose side are you on?"

Of course, as Heena's boyfriend, I was on her side, but that's probably not what he was curious about. He was probably wondering if I wanted to bathe with Heena or not.

Of course, I couldn't answer that part honestly. I whispered back, just as quietly.

"I'm on the winning side."

"Oh... You clever little rascal."

Well, I said that, but truthfully, I was rooting more for the aunt's side. It's not that I'd grown tired of bathing with Heena.

But generally, girls develop a bit faster than boys, both physically and mentally, and that worried me. Of course, our minds were already those of adults over twenty, but I'm not talking about that - I mean in terms of sexual responses.

Somehow, I was starting to sense a hint of sensuality in the way Heena's hands washed my body. Physically, various parts of Heena had developed, and it was awkward how she kept trying to show them to me.

I was worried that at this rate, we might end up having an accident not in high school, but as early as middle school.

Of course, I intended to take responsibility for Heena for life. And given that we'd already seen everything over the years, it wasn't like I was dead set against touching her before we became adults.

But.

Still.

Doing it in elementary or middle school seemed a bit much, didn't it?

"Okay! We'll bathe separately!"

"That's how it should be! If you do this again, you'll really get the cane, understand?!"

"Tch..."

After a long battle, the aunt finally emerged victorious. Her determination to not give in no matter how much Heena cried was palpable even to me.

Heena probably approached this with a 'nothing ventured, nothing gained' attitude. It was certainly starting to look a bit risky to others.

"You two play in the living room~ I'll make some pancakes."

Anyway, once the fight was over, the aunt returned to her usual kind self. She immediately went to the kitchen to make us a snack.

In the meantime, Heena came back to my side, hugged me, and whispered softly.

"Hey, let's do it secretly when no one's around. Got it?"

"......"

Heena, you're really quite a tough kid, aren't you?

---

The annual bathing war was the biggest event of the year, but otherwise, we spent our days without anything special happening.

Us always being together, both families going on vacation together during holiday seasons, getting perfect scores in several annual competitions - it was all just part of our routine.

We took each other's presence for granted, as if we were actual family.

And so, repeating year after year.

Before we knew it, we were 13 years old, in the 6th grade of elementary school.

Author's Note:
