TL: Hanguk

Sejun quickly sensed the pink atmosphere flowing between the two.

“Are you two a couple?”

Squeak!

Squeak!

They both nodded at the same time.

‘Damn!’

Being caught between a rabbit couple…

He once had no friends with matching free time in college, so he had to eat with a couple. It was awkward, but he couldn’t eat alone for a whole semester, so he joined them.

One day while eating together, a sudden tension arose between the couple, leading to a heated argument. . Sejun felt very uncomfortable while being stuck between them.

And then I acquired the skill to eat by myself.

After that, he vowed never to eat with a couple again…

Squeak, squeak.

Feeling Sejun’s strange mood, the husband rabbit rubbed its face against Sejun’s hand, trying desperately to win his approval to stay. It was a desperate gesture to protect their home.

‘Working so hard to protect their family…’

Sejun’s heart softened. He felt ashamed for still being stuck in the past.

‘That’s right. They were a couple, and these two are a married couple.’

Sejun didn’t know the profound world of a married couple.

“Alright. You can stay here. But it’s not for free.”

He didn’t expect anything in return.

Squeak!

Squeak!

Upon Sejun’s approval, the rabbit couple nodded vigorously and ran to a corner of the cave, digging a burrow to create their own dwelling.

“A burrow?”

Watching the rabbit dig the burrow, Sejun had a sudden idea. He wondered if they could dig a burrow to get out of here.

‘Stupid me! I only thought about the hole above because it was there!’

“Rabbit!”

Squeak?

The husband rabbit, busy digging the ground, peeked out at Sejun’s call.

“Can you dig a tunnel to get out of here?”

Squeak…

The rabbit thought for a moment and shook its head.

“No?”

Swish, swish.

The rabbit began drawing a picture on the ground. It drew the cave where Sejun was and started digging deep underneath.

And then,

Whoosh.

It poured water from the watering can into the dug hole. The bottom of Sejun’s cave filled with water.

“Ah. The bottom is all water.”

Squeak!

The rabbit nodded.

“Okay. Keep doing what you were doing.”

Squeak!

The rabbit went back to digging its burrow.

At that moment,

Beep, beep.

The alarm rang. The smartphone battery was at 100%. Considering the discharge rate of the laptop, it seemed like he could recharge it once more.
