Fostering the Male Lead

ome true?

“I’m going to ask for just one handsome guy.”’

I obviously started out light-heartedly.
 But who would have known that I would end up lost within an hour of starting.

“Does anyone know I’m here….”

I thought it over, but there really wasn’t anyone.
Absolutely no one!

Since Sihael was busy taking a nap, and Nanabi and Leonard seemed busy, I sneaked out quietly.

‘And Lumiyan… Well, even if he knew he won’t be of any help.’

After all, no one knew that I was lost in the mountains.
I tousled my hair roughly.
 If I didn’t show up by evening, someone would come looking for me, but the problem was the weather.

Dark clouds began to swallow the sky.
The mountain, which was full of freshness, had long since lost its light and turned gray.

‘Can I hold out here until someone comes?’

No, I won’t last. It looked like it would rain within an hour at the latest.
At least I had to find a shelter from the rain.
I got up off the rock and looked around.

“I wish there was a cave or a big tree…”

As I pushed through the branches, I heard a voice in the distance.

“…Woof!”

“Huh?”

“Awoo!”

Sihael?

“Aawoooo!”

“Your Highness! I’m here!”

I screamed my lungs out, afraid that Sihael would leave me behind.

“Sihael! I’m here!”

Sihael finally found me and ran towards me at full speed.
I opened my arms and hugged him.
It was not a family reunion, but a tearful welcome.

“Your Highness!”

“Woof! Woof! Wooof!”

I didn’t know what exactly he was saying, but I knew that he was scolding me.
But it was okay.
I really thought I was going to be lost.

“I thought I was going to die alone.”

I cried and buried my face in his neck.
Sihael pressed my cheek with his paw as if telling me not to say such a ridiculous thing.

“Let’s go down now.”

“Woof!”

“Come on, let’s go.”

But for some reason, Sihael didn’t move.

“Come on, let’s go.”

I pushed him hard on the back, while he stood just blankly staring at me, but he didn’t move.

No way! It isn’t what I am thinking, right?

“…Do you not know the way back?”

I bent my knees urgently and grabbed Sihael’s face.
His eyes were trembling slightly.

“Really?”

He quietly averted his gaze and replied back in a mousy voice.

“Awoo.”

“Your Highness, we are doomed…….”

Crack! Boom!

The sound of thunder was heard in the distance.

A thunder struck in my heart, too.
