The Satan CEO's Woman: He Unexpectedly Fell in Love with Her

Chapter 165 - 165: An Afternoon Meaningfully Spent With The Children



Kim Eunji and Nathan decided to hangout outside with the locals after they had their own share of breakfast.

Nathan had learned his lessons of buying the fruits Kim Eunji was craving for in advance so that he won't need to go to the market just to buy them.

The smell of cooked food still made her wanted to puke. She could not tolerate bland food, too. Porridge would make her feel like sh*t.

The only improvement was that she could tolerate other fruits.

This made Nathan to be positive since she could get the nutrients she needed for the babies' growth and development from those fruits.

But this must have chili paste mixed with it like usual.

She also liked to snacks on fresh red peppers.

Kim Eunji was sipping on her fruit shake and sitting on the bamboo bench when a group of little children approached her and then gave her a bracelet.

"Ate para po sa inyo!" (Sister, for you!) The little girl with a missing tooth smiled sweetly to her.

She looked so cute that she wanted to pinch her cheeks but decided not to as she was afraid that she might have frightened the kids.

She could not contain the joy that she was feeling seeing their genuine smiles with genuine emotions overflowing.

Though these kids looked innocent, they were already sensitive and mature enough to help their parents doing household chores.

Kim Eunji always had a soft spot for children.

She was with Carmella and she missed that kid so much.

She must be fifteen now and such a beauty. She wondered what she was doing now. She hoped her parents granted her last wish before she took that drug, to never let Carmella hold a sword ever. As a sister, she would be really broken-hearted if she'd found out that she had started hunting after someone's head at this age.

She could do so much better than that. Better than what she herself had achieved during that age.

Then she recalled her last dream where she was with Carmella.

That horrifying scene that she had witnessed still bothered her though.

As she tried to interpret what that dream meant, she felt a sting on her head.

Knowing that she could not take any strong pain killers if her head ache turned serious, she stopped thinking about it.

Good thing the kids were still surrounding her as they were patiently waiting for her response.

She kind of felt bad for them as she looked like she was giving them a cold shoulder and ignored their genuine intentions when the truth was she wasn't.

She just happened to get lost on her thoughts mid-way but the good thing was that she was back now.

She felt even worse when she saw their smiles about to fade.

Kim Eunji got down from the bench and decided to squat down so she could give the kid more attention.

"For me?" Kim Eunji asked her and her five other companions who were slightly taller than the little girl while pointing the bracelet on the little girl's hand.

"Opo!" They said and nodded their heads in agreement.

Kim Eunji then stretched out her right hand so the little girl could put it on her.

"Could you help me put that on in my wrist?" She asked the little girl.

Since Kim Eunji didn't speak Tagalog, the little girl bobbed her head in confusion.

Thankfully, the taller kid who was the only boy in the group kind of understood what Kim Eunji meant.

He then leaned on and whispered on the little girl's ears and then the latter's eyes sparkled after she understood what Kim Eunji meant.

"Sure!" The little girl uttered in English then she wrapped the bracelet around Kim Eunji's wrist and securely tied them.

The red string of the bracelet made it stood out on her wrist.

The beautiful shells adorning the bracelet looked pretty as well.

"Ganda mo po!" (You're so beautiful!)

Kim Eunji felt a little shy with the little girl's praise. Yes she was familiar with the language now and she could understood what they were saying.

But she didn't want to sound off or awkward when speaking it.

However, these kids made her want to try and talk to them.

"Ako, maganda?" Kim Eunji said which meant that she was confirming if the little girl found her really pretty.

She couldn't believe it as she was wearing her wig and her big eye glasses that was big enough to cover or hide her small face. She was also still wearing her sweat pants and Nathan's shirt.

Even so, her ethereal beauty still shone brightly underneath this disguise.

Her beautiful lips and nose and her porcelain like skin were enough evidence that she's beautiful.

"Ate....anghel ka po ba?" (Sister, are you an angel?)

The other one asked her.

Kim Eunji could not help but giggle as she was reminded that kids at this age were full of curiosity and would be interested in many things. They would always raise questions and of course they would always expect to get answers from the adults.

"Take turns in asking. I won't run away."

Seeing that the kids could not get what she was saying, she pouted her lips and said, "Sorry. Isa lang?"

(She wanted to say one at a time. However, she forgot to repeat the word isa and turned it into 'isa-isa lang' which would complete the sentence and would mean one at a time.)

"Ate, ang hirap! Hindi ka namin maintindihan." The fourth girl even scratched the back of her head to elaborate what she was saying.

She meant that it was difficult to talk to her because they could not understand her.

Kim Eunji looked around hoping that someone could help her translate what she wanted to say to them.

She's in the good mood to hang out with them.

Nathan was watching this from afar and he could only chuckle when she saw her looking lost as if looking for help.

He had just gotten back from answering a call.

He steadily walked towards her direction with his hands kept inside his pockets.

"Need some help?" He asked while squatting on the ground.

"I'm still struggling to talk to them." Kim Eunji pouted cutely.

"Silly. For someone who was learning the language for more than a week now, I could say you're far better than I am. What a shame that I suck at this language." He proudly told her.

Kim Eunji gasped when she heard his praises.

Manang Ines had been giving her flash cards which could help her in studying.

Nathan who was very supportive to her also bought a translation dictionary for her guide and some workbooks for her to answer since Nathan banned her from using electronics.

Manong Popoy would help her and even ask her daughter Mona to tutor her whenever she was free.

This gave her the drive to study the language. Good thing she was a fast learner and had a photographic memory.

However, Tagalog, just like any other language in the world was quite difficult to learn compared to English.

One word had a lot of meaning and there were instances where in you could not find the direct translation in English.

"Don't worry. I'll be fluent in it within a month." seeing the drive to learn the language, Nathan knew that she would definitely be able to do that.

"But for now, I'll be needing help."

"Ang galing! Marunong po kayo mag Japanese?" (Amazing! You knew Nihongo as well?) The taller kid asked in amazement.

The couple had the habit to have conversations in either English, Japanese and Chinese depending on their mood and the place where they were.

"Oh! Are we having an aspiring language master here?" Kim Eunji asked in surprise.

"Hindi po. (No, It's not what you think.)" He denied and then immediately looked down as he got shy with Kim Eunji's praises.

Nathan then saw Mona carrying a basket of freshly picked green mangoes to their house.

"Mona!" Nathan called her.

She was surprised to hear that someone was calling her. So she looked towards her right and saw Nathan asking her to come over.

She looked at the basket that she was carrying and then back at them.

"Ate Mona!" The kids also recognized her and excitedly called her to come over as well.

Some even run to her so they could bring to them.

She smiled and rubbed their heads to in affection.

"Just leave it there! I'll ask someone to carry it in your house!" Nathan told them.

It was her day-off today so she was shocked that Nathan was calling her.

She then put down the basket and came with the kids. The kids were happy since they had the two prettiest sisters with them at the moment.

Yes, Mona was pretty, too. She really fit on the description of an island fairy.

"You called me, Master?" Mona asked him.

"Yes. Be my wife's translator and interpreter." Nathan told her directly.

"Oh." Mona uttered.

"Ate Mona! Ate Mona! Gusto namin makausap si ate ganda! (Sister Mona! Sister Mona! We wanted to talk to pretty sister!)" The kids whined as they pleaded at her.

They were really eager to talk to Kim Eunji.

Well, who would not? Even she herself was drawn unto her.

Yes, she had a bad first impression to her but as the days went by and she got to know Kim Eunji more, she wanted to be around her, too.

In fact, if one would ask her on who would be her girl crush, it would definitely be Kim Eunji.

Because of this, she felt shy around her.

"Sure." She didn't hesitate to agree.

With Mona's help, Kim Eunji and the kids had a good time for the rest of the afternoon.

Their group quite attracted other kids and they even joined in on the fun.

Who wouldn't when they had pretty sisters and handsome brother with them.

Kim Eunji happily watched the children showing on their talents in singing, dancing and acting.

They also asked Kim Eunji if she had a talent.

However she lied and told them that she hadn't making the girls to feel bad.

However, they cheered up when Kim Eunji told them if they wanted to take pictures with her.

They also got the chance to share on what they wanted to be in the future.

What made her happy and proud was that they wanted to become this someone in the future to help their family. Considering that they were doing this for their family, it was so touching to know.

It would always be like this. It would always be for the family.

Kim Eunji made a mental note to help them to fulfill their dreams.

After their sharing, Kim Eunji and the kids then built sand castles on the sand while she was eating the peeled green mango in her hand dipped in chili sauce and salt.

"Delicious! Hubby, I want to eat this for tonight." She asked him.

"Oh! So, you don't want to have me for tonight?" Nathan teased her.
