Haiâan was dying of shame, especially when he saw Auguste wiping his hands after taking them back. Both of Haiâanâs hands pulled Augusteâs shirt out as he quickly buried his face in Augusteâs chest and decided to hide.
What an embarrassment...should he have licked it back? But that seemed more shameful...
Haiâanâs head was still turning around in circles while Auguste took him back to the bedroom. Auguste grabbed Haiâanâs collar and pulled him off his chest. Suddenly the protective layer of the clothes he had grasped disappeared. Haiâan reached forward with two small white hands and kicked his legs. When he saw the familiar decoration in Augusteâs room, Haiâan was able to calm down. It was quiet.
He was shy... Why he suddenly have to see the light? Haiâan drooped, leaving Auguste to carry him to bed. But when Auguste began to take off his clothes, Haiâan was not calm. He was embarrassed, grabbing his clothes, his pale green eyes were wide and his red mouth was tight.
What was this about?
âDonât make any noise.â Auguste moved Haiâanâs hand, but Haiâanâs hand pulled tighter, and Augusteâs low voice sounded very magnetic, causing Haiâan to be somewhat confused and he stared, âYou have to take a bath to sleep.â
Did that mean he had to be seen again? Haiâan actually wanted to refuse. So he turned over, knelt on the bed and began to climb forward, slipping away for a long distance while Auguste undressed. But because the zipper of the dragon clothes was on the back of it, Haiâanâs gesture was just like that of a cat showing its belly on its own initiative, so that its owner can scratch it. Augusteâs finger flicked gently behind Haiâanâs back and the zipper opened.
From the neck to the buttocks, all of Haiâan was exposed like a gentle white flower. Auguste pinched Haiâanâs waist again and easily pulled Haiâan out of the dragon clothes. Haiâan was held by Auguste, but this time neither of them was dressed. Under Haiâanâs bare buttocks was Augusteâs arm, and he was leaning against Augusteâs strong chest muscles. Haiâan was afraid to touch him so he sat unsteadily.
Auguste put Haiâan on the washstand and took him a cup of hot water to soak in. Haiâan grabbed the edge of the cup and watched as Auguste took a small brush and squeezed a little paste on it.
What? What was that? Haiâan had never seen anything like this before. Augusteâs paste was green and transparent. Haiâanâs nose moved. It smelled like an apple, sweet and fragrant. Was it edible?
But why not use a spoon instead of a brush?
âAh ~â Before Auguste could speak, Haiâan opened his mouth and asked Auguste to put the brush in his mouth.
Uh huh? Good?
Auguste was still worrying that Haiâan had just taken off his clothes and was struggling to keep calm as he brushed his teeth with his mouth open. But then Auguste saw that Haiâan had a toothbrush in his mouth, his throat moved, and when he took the brush out, the toothpaste was gone.
Auguste: â...â
âGEHH ~â Haiâan was crying and mourning. What was this?! It was terrible!! He had a strange taste in his mouth now.
âThis canât be eaten. You need to spit it out.â Auguste took his toothbrush, squeezed the toothpaste onto it and demonstrated it to Haiâan. âToday, Iâll help you brush your teeth, you have to learn. Every day you must brush your teeth, okay?â
Haiâan grabbed the rim of the cup and nodded obediently.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Auguste re-squeezed toothpaste on the small toothbrush specifically for Haiâan, âOpen your mouth.â
âAh ~â Haiâan opened his mouth and showed eight small teeth. Auguste carefully held Haiâanâs back, probed the toothbrush into his mouth and gently brushed his teeth. This toothbrush was the smallest toothbrush on the Vagrant. He also helped Haiâan cut it a little, but even so, Haiâan still had a lot of difficulty holding it.
âHmm!â Toothpaste was rubbed for a while, and then it spilled out of his mouth as a pile of white foam. It was dripping all the way to Haiâanâs chin. It was dripping continuously. Haiâanâs hands had climbed up Augusteâs fingers because Auguste sometimes brushed his gums carelessly, causing his tears to come out. Haiâan grabbed his fingers and thought, make him brush lighter.
When Haiâan finished brushing his teeth, not only was his mouth red, but so were his eyes. There were tears in his eyes and he could not close his mouth for a while. Haiâan had to hold his chin closed and let Auguste bathe him gently.
Auguste raised his lips and looked at Haiâanâs miserable appearance with amusement. He bathed him first. When he separated Haiâanâs legs, he saw a small ball of flesh between his legs, and even grinned with his white teeth.
âItâs small.â Although Auguste only muttered this softly, he was heard by Haiâan with his sharp ears. He grabbed Augusteâs finger in anger and grinded it hard with his eight teeth in one bite, but the strength was not enough to even hurt Auguste.
He gently scratched Haiâanâs left rib with his other hand, and Haiâan loosened his teeth, almost sliding into the water. Auguste took Haiâan out of the water, wrapped him in a towel and put him on the bed, but he did not dress him. Then he turned to the table and took the needles and cloth Tanamo had given him into the bathroom.
But Haiâan did not see this little action of Auguste. After Auguste put him in bed, Haiâan crawled onto the pillow and moved along it to the bedside table. On the cabinet was Haiâanâs plant, Shaking Grass.
The trembling grassâ flower was still in bloom, a very big and beautiful blue one. After Haiâan became a man, Auguste put the trembling grass on the bedside so that everyday, it could be watered and given sunshine. But now, he also had to take car of JianJianâs little human body, Haiâan.
Haiâan stood up next to the pot and stretched out his hand to pull his leaves. He had torn off his vines before and, at that time, Haiâan thought it was very painful. This time, Haiâan collapsed on the table, the pain made him want to vomit.
Haiâan lay down on the table for a while before the pain began to ease and sneezed two times. After the leaves of the shaking grass were torn off, Haiâan was much weaker. The red halo he had after taking a bath disappeared. His face was pale, and there were a few drops of cold sweat on his forehead.
Haiâan sniffed and decided not to abuse himself so much next time. He sat up with his leaves and looked at the flowerpot again. He thought of the soul stone hidden under the shaking grass roots. He closed his eyes and tried to control the body, shaking the grass and shaking the vines from the roots. He used his vines to grab Augusteâs soul stone, before handing it to Haiâanâs human body. Haiâan took the leaf in one hand, the soul stone in the other, and slowly climbed back to bed.
He decided to wait for Auguste in the quilt.
Haiâan: Auguste took a slow bath today.
In fact, Auguste had already taken a bath. He was currently sitting on the toilet lid and looking for some simple sewing steps.
Iâm working hard on it. The book says that the simplest clothes start with underwear.
Auguste was ashamed to see the little underpants he had in his hand, which had taken him ten minutes to sew together. The cloth was pure white, with the print of a little dragon on it. It was the cloth Tanamo had chosen for him.
He felt more and more perverted... This pair of underwear was the size of Augusteâs thumb nail, but because of the elastic fabric, Haiâan should be fine to wear it.
Auguste gave a dry cough, cleared his throat, pushed open the bathroom door and went out. When the door opened, Haiâan was huddled in the quilt, showing only half his head, pulling the corner of the quilt.
The little pair of green eyes were full of shadows.
Augusteâs heart suddenly felt like a dew rolling gently on the lotus leaf, which was incredibly soft. He approached a little and found something wrong with Haiâanâs face.
âIs it uncomfortable?â Auguste tapped Haiâanâs hair lightly, feeling that Haiâanâs forehead was a little cold.
Haiâan moved, sat up, took out the leaf under the quilt and gave it to Auguste.
âHow did you pull out your own leaf?!â Auguste looked at the leaf and was very angry. He couldnât help but raise his voice and shout at Haiâan.
Haiâan saw Auguste get angry, and he was a little overwhelmed, so he quickly grabbed Augusteâs finger, shaking it, blinking innocent eyes at Auguste.
Auguste was silent for a moment, before poking Haiâanâs forehead with his index finger, leaving a meaningful sigh.
âWho is the leaf for?â Auguste shook the leaf in his hand and said to Haiâan. Auguste knew that this leaf was definitely not for him. Last time Haiâan ripped off his vine and braided a bracelet for him, and he had made it clear to Haiâan that he could not hurt himself.
JianJian was not obedient. Auguste wrote a note in his mind.
Haiâan covered half of his ears and pointed to the shaking grass.
âFor those two plants?â
Um-huh-huh!!! Haiâan shone his eyes and nodded his head vigorously.
Auguste was really in touch with him!
âWell, tomorrow Iâll let Jamie take this to Siam with him.â Auguste touched Haiâanâs head. âLetâs not do it again.â
Haiâan squinted with laughter and rubbed Augusteâs finger with an uneven tooth.
âCome on, dress up.â Auguste took out the printed dragon underwear he had made and shook it in front of Haiâan.
What was this?
Haiâan pulled down the underwear Auguste had made, which he pinched with two fingers, and brought it up to his eyes. Clothing with three holes was not wearable.
Haiâan looked at this strange shape, stunned, he had never seen such things. He would not wear it. So little cloth could cover what, ah?
