[Ongoing] [Seventeen Hoshi's Bing-yi-geul] Our House Thirteen, Half-Human, Half-Beast Episode 1

Two years after graduating from high school, around the winter when I was 21.

I first met him on my way home in the dark of night after having a great time with my old elementary school friends.

The child was sleeping alone, abandoned on this cold day, in a corner of an alley where empty boxes were piled up.

"" Squeak… ""

"" Huh, why is there a fox in a place like this..?""

I was embarrassed. How could I not be surprised when a fox was sleeping and squirming in an alley where people walked by?

I felt so sorry for the fox who was sleeping with boxes as a blanket in the cold weather that I woke it up to take it home.

The fox, who woke up to my voice, was startled and went deeper into the corner.

""Fox~ Your house is clean, spacious, and warm. Do you want to go together? ""

""This girl can treat our fox really well.""

I spoke as friendly as I could. As if he understood what I meant, he put his nose to my hand and sniffed it.

After a while, the fox rubbed its body against mine.

I understood that he meant to follow me, and since there were a lot of people, I picked up the fox first.

The fox was shivering in my arms because it was cold.

-------------------------------------------------

After arriving home, I sat the fox in the bathroom to wash it because it was quite dirty, probably because it had been outside for a long time.

I once had a dog, but it was so long ago that I've forgotten how to wash the animal.

As I thought back on my memories, it occurred to me that the fox had been starving all this time.

"What does a fox eat? Fox, do you want to wash and eat, or eat and wash?"

The fox walked out of the bathroom, as if he really understood what I said.

I followed the fox out of the bathroom with a smile on my face, amazed that he understood what I said.

The fox's unwashed feet were making the floor of my house dirty.

I quickly brought three or four towels from the bathroom, laid them on the fluffy sofa, sat the fox down, and searched on my phone what foxes eat.

"" Huh..? A book-eating fox?? Do you eat books..? ""

"" ... ""

"" Haha... This girl tried to make me laugh by talking nonsense... Why are you looking at me like that... ""

When I glanced at the fox, who naturally didn't say anything in response to my question, it was looking at me with a strange look in its eyes.

After that, I quickly looked for food for the fox, thinking that the fox might be hungry.

I searched the green window and found that foxes are omnivorous and will eat anything.

There was no meat in the house, so I gave the fox an apple.

When the fox didn't eat the apple even though it was put in front of it, I thought it must not be eating apples and brought the apple back to me, but something that looked like a human hand grabbed my wrist that was holding the apple.

-------------------------------------------------

"Why are you taking it?"

"" Uh... who are you..?""

This was the first meeting between me, a normal human who is not half-human, half-beast, and Kwon Soon-young, a half-human, half-fox.
