She was small and pretty, and of no use. “Sue.” My mother always called her 'Susan'. But I steadfastly called 'Sue'. Because it was more like a dog. Sue was the foodie of our house. She was a girl who had been left behind by her mother to her friend during a divorce. I and Sue were at the same age. My birthday is a month early. My family wasn't very affluent, so I had to hold a birthday party early or fall behind by a fortnight. Oh My God, it was a terrible thing. Having a birthday party at the same time was as having the gift halved. Every night I prayed for Susan to return her home. A month before my birthday, I prayed even before breakfast. And let me tell you in advance, Sue was stuck in my house until I turned 20. Damn, that means I just spent my eighth birthday with that useless girl. No matter how stupid I was, if I stuck with that much, I had no choice but to find out the use of her. “Sue, open your eyes.” A lazy girl. “...Bliss.... please...” “Open your eyes.” Other Books By JellyBeanEnter The Love Of VR (By Nimdorusin) / Yaoi The Summer In The Hut (By Epillia) / Yaoi Your Personal Shopper (By Goddess Somi) / Yaoi What You Do With A Possessed Body (By Cypress) / Romance The Pill Of Regret And Fall (By Jjabjaljjab) / GL About JellyBenEnter Based in Korea, JellyBeanEnter is a publisher specialized in ebook.

Sweet and warm, calm, a love story between two women. #western #fantasy #dimensionTravel #rebirth #jealousy #sweetAndLovely * This short story of GL(Girls' Love) is translated from from the original Korean short web-novel. (text only, no illustration) Tables Of Contents Title Page Body Content Copyright (42 pages in approx. print length) Preview Under the clear sky, Artessa muttered as she narrowed her eyes to the sunlight pouring down. "It’s good weather. Shall we take out the kimchi today and sell it?" The sun was strong and the green lush. Spring was over, and summer was coming soon. Artessa clenched her fists tightly, and raised her spirits again today and made a loud voice towards the air. It was like the roar of an animal, and the birds on the trees scattered, busy running away from the sound. "That giant girl is being weird today." Children running around behind Artessa were talking, and Artessa turned around. She ran up to them in an instant, raised her muscular arms, held a frightened boy, and shouted: "This guy! What a peanut; you are so cute!" "Aww! Drop him!" Today was a peaceful afternoon. Artessa played with the children in a friendly way and went to work afterwards with a dignified step. *** Artessa Violet was once beautiful enough to be compared to the flower of the empire, but she committed the crime of sinning and insulting men while playing with them. Due to a curse from a wizard, her appearance changed, though. The victim of her insults had resented her enough to hire the wizard. It was kind of a curse. Her delicate and slender face changed into an angular and tough impression; her slender figure changed to a mass of muscle; and her height increased, until she was a giant. Artessa was startled when she saw her hands the size of a pot lid and cried out, but it was hard to understand, just like the cry of a wild beast. She immediately shut her mouth. Artessa’s life after that is not well known. She disappeared after being shocked by her own appearance. Artessa was a villain girl who seduced the male lead and trampled on the male master’s innocence. Like this in print, it’s cheap even if you’re punished! The main character of this story had been reading Artessa’s story as one of fiction. However, she was now possessed by Artessa’s body. She woke up the next morning and sighed, noticing that something strange had happened to her body, and she imagined the person who had also endured this in her head. She was confused the first time, and the second time the cursing came out in her thick voice. However, it may be because humans are animals of adaptation, or maybe it is because of their optimistic nature, but she was able to adapt to Artessa’s body in an instant. First of all, as soon as her appearance changed, not everyone believed her to be Artessa. So, she swept up her seemingly expensive items, put them in a bag, and fled. Eventually, the village she arrived at was very peaceful, on land perfect for farming.
