Book 1 - Chapter 5: Become a Baby in Another World #3

"Awww Alen~~, look at you now looking even more beautiful in this outfit"

I looked in the mirror and saw a very beautiful and adorable baby with silver hair and red pupils, she was wearing a pink baby girl outfit. However, the sex of the baby was male, and that baby was me.

When I first saw my face, I was very surprised that my face looked so beautiful and cute, even for me. 'No wonder mom and dad are always clinging to me'

I don't mind if they call me pretty or adorable because of my looks, but this time I was really annoyed.

Because right now mom is putting baby girl clothes on me, I'm struggling to get these clothes off.

"Ah dear, don't take it off like that. You fit perfectly into that outfit"

It's true that these clothes fit me perfectly, but this hurt my pride as a man. 

"No" I still want to take these clothes off.

"Mou~" With a sullen face she finally took off these clothes and replaced them with my usual clothes.

By the way I am now 3 years old, and my mom has taught me how to read. Honestly, when I look at the letters in the book, it's really very different from the letters on the earth, but somehow when they talk to me, I can understand what they say.

I guess I've got an innate automatic translation ability. But I still have to learn the letters of the alphabet in this world.

So far I've started to be able to say things, such as the words Daddy, Mommy, Yes, No, and others.

And the first word that came out of my mouth was the word "Mom", and when my mom heard it she fainted with a big smile because she was too happy and that smile never faded for a week. 

Oh, I can also walk now. And I don't think I need to tell you how my mom reacted to that, because she was just too much LOL.

*****

I stood up and walked towards room, when I arrived at the door I saw my mother watching me with a smile. 

"Mom... book"

But when I said that her smile suddenly faded and her face turned sour but soon she smiled again.

"No Honey, today you don't need to study. Today you can play" 

I shook my head refusing her offer.

"Book"

Unable to resist, she entered the room followed by me and she picked up 2 thin books on the cupboard.

"Here are the books Honey~" 

"No" but I refused, I pointed at three very thick books 

"H-Honey, that book only contains writings" 

But I still insisted on wanting the book.

My mom took it and gave it to me, I sat down and started reading.

Seeing me just sitting reading a book, she thought of an idea to make me interested.

"Ah Honey, mom is going to go see dad. Instead of reading a book, why don't we play with daddy?" My mom tried to get me to play again.

"I don't want to..." but I refused again.

"Alright, I'll go see dad."

Acting like she was leaving, my mom walked out of the room. But her eyes glanced back at me again.

"Are you sure you don't want to come with me?" she asked once again.

"No" with a bright face, I refused again. And my mom finally really left leaving me alone in the room.

*****

Alea walked out of the house, and as she looked out there were many trees not far from her house. Green grass and flowers were blooming in her yard.

Also near the trees was a man practicing swordplay by beating a wooden puppet. Alea now walked towards him, and sat down on a log that had been made into a seat.

She watched her husband who was practicing with a sad look.

Eden who saw this stopped practicing and approached his wife.

"What's wrong, honey? What are you thinking about?"

Hearing her husband's question, Alea told him what was making her sad. It was because Alen was now more obsessed with books than her and she didn't want to play with him anymore.

At first she thought that it would be good if Alen could learn many things, but now she wanted Alen not to focus too much on learning or reading and wanted Alen to be able to play more at his current age.

Listening to his wife's confusion, Eden smiled and said. "Haha I guess it's normal that Alen doesn't want to play"

"How is that normal?" asked Alea with an annoyed face.

"You just look around us, there are only trees. He must be very bored because he doesn't have any friends" replied Eden.

"Don't you often say that reading is more boring, and that Alen can play as much as he wants with me?" Alea asked.

"Honey, everyone has a hobby to fill boredom. Isn't he like you who also likes to read? And by playmates, I mean friends of the same age," replied Eden.

"I think Alen would be bored if he only played with you."

*Stab

Eden's last words stab her heart, because he said that Alen was definitely bored if he only played with his mother.

"S-So what should we do?" Alea asked with a face that wanted to cry.

Eden rubbed his chin while thinking of something.

"What if we just move to the capital now? Compared to the forest like here. There are definitely many children of the his age and we can also reunite with them"

"They also have children the same age as Alen."

Hearing that, Alea now showed more enthusiasm on her face, "I-If so, when can we go?"

Eden smiled and answered his wife's question "In two days, we will leave"
