"That thing is incredibly delicious."

Terzan rarely sparkled her eyes as she looked at the blue fruit.

Knowing her well, Kaneff murmured,

"If Terzan has that kind of reaction, it must really taste good"

Everyone's gaze turned towards the fruit.

In fact, while talking with Terzan, they hadn't had a chance to express it, but the sweet aroma already filled the room.

Moreover, with Terzan's reaction, curiosity about the fruit increased.

-Tap, tap.

Speranza tapped the fruit on the table with her hand and asked,

"It is really hard. How do we eat this?"

"Should I open the shell for you?"

"Un."

"Just wait a moment."

Terzan naturally pulled out a weapon from her pocket.

Although it was an intimidating tool just for opening a shell, no one here pointed that out.

Terzan stood in front of the fruit, holding the weapon. With a serious face, she fixed her gaze, slowly raising the sharp-edged weapon.

-SLASH! SLASH!

A few flashes burst around the fruit. The hard shell of the fruit was smoothly peeled off, revealing the inside of the fruit.

"Wow!"

"Awesome, Terzan."

"Your weapon-handling skills are still great."

Cheers and applause burst from the spectators. Terzan stowed the weapon she had been holding back into her pocket with a proud face.

Inside the peeled fruit was a pink flesh. The fruit, now exposed, gave off an even stronger sweetness and freshness.

Terzan stepped away from the fruit and said,

"Speranza, try it first. You can scoop this part with a spoon."

She kindly explained how to eat it and helped Speranza with her first tasting.

Speranza, who was lifting a spoon, paused for a moment and looked around. I noticed what the cute fox girl was thinking and nudged her back.

"It's okay. This is a birthday gift from Terzan. Speranza can eat first."

Then, Speranza started moving her paused hand again.

The slowly moving spoon gently dug into the fruit, scooping just enough flesh for one bite.

And the spoon headed straight towards Speranza's small mouth.

-Yum! Gobble Gobble!

Everyone held their breath and watched Speranza's reaction. The first reaction came from her fox ears and tail.

Her pointed fox ears perked up, and her slowly swaying tail began to whip around as if a wind had arisen. Just like Speranza's wide-open eyes, our curiosity grew.

Finally, unable to bear it, Lilia jumped out and asked,

"How does it taste? Is it delicious? Not tasty?"

Speranza replied with a rather serious expression,

"It's delicious. Soooooo delicious!"

"Really? But why does your face look like that?"

"Ugh."

Speranza groaned, looking back and forth between her spoon and the fruit. I quickly caught on to what she was worrying about.

"If you want to eat more, you can, sweetheart."

"But"

The fruit flesh, once the skin was peeled off, wasn't very big. Enough for the people here to taste just one bite each?

Everyone was trying not to show it, but it was clear they subtly wanted to try the fruit.

Of course, I was curious too, but if Speranza wanted to eat more, I was ready to give up my share.

After a long time of contemplation, Speranza finally put down her spoon.

"Speranza, are you sure you don't want more? Terzan went through a lot of trouble to get this. We might not have it again."

Despite my urging, Speranza shook her head firmly.

"It's okay. Papa said the best food is meant to be shared with family. I'd like to share it with everyone too."

"Speranza"

"Sniff! I'm totally moved!"

"Heh, when did she become so mature"

The farm members all had touched expressions. I also felt a warm feeling welling up in my eyes as I hugged Speranza tightly.

"Oh my, how can you be so kind and lovely. Speranza, you're the best."

"Hehehe."

Speranza let out a cheerful laugh with a twinkle in her eyes.

Thanks to the cutest and kindest fox girl in the world, the farm family got a chance to taste the fruit of life'.

Everyone carefully tasted a bite of the fruit.

"Papa, you should try it quickly."

"Okay. Got it."

I too scooped up a bite of the fruit flesh with my spoon.

Hmmm?! This taste!

When I first put the fruit in my mouth, the texture reminded me of firm jelly.

I thought it would be sweet because of the sweet scent, but the first taste was surprisingly sharp and refreshing.

After the refreshing taste filled my mouth, the jelly-like fruit flesh became mushy and a different taste spread out. A subtle sweetness and nuttiness naturally brought a smile to my lips.

After swallowing the fruit that shook my taste buds, a warm energy spread throughout my body.

I briefly thought it might truly be a cure-all.

"Wow It's really amazing."

Not just me, but everyone else also expressed their amazement in turn.

Even the stingy Kaneff, acknowledging the risk Terzan took, expressed his satisfaction.

There was still quite a bit of fruit left after everyone had a taste. We only scooped up a little on our spoons in case anyone couldn't eat it.

"Should Speranza eat the rest?"

"Can I?"

Speranza, who had been holding back her desire to eat more, brightened up. I pulled the remaining fruit towards Speranza with a smile.

"Everyone has had a taste now, so it's okay. You can eat as much as you want."

Everyone else also nodded with a smile. With no hesitation, Speranza, her eyes sparkling, picked up her spoon and took a bite of the fruit.

Everyone might have wanted to eat more, but just watching Speranza, whose cheeks were now filled with food, was enough to feel happy.

Everyone was in the midst of discussing the Fruit of Life' when Kaneff quietly approached me.

"Now it's just our gift left, right?"

"Yes."

"Hmm Why would she bring something like the Fruit of Life'"

Kaneff grumbled, glaring at Terzan who was boasting about her adventure to procure the fruit. Speranza was seated on her lap, listening attentively.

"What if she doesn't like our gift? Should we fly to the wetlands right now and get another Fruit of Life'?"

Kaneff was unusually anxious. I chuckled and responded,

"When are you planning to go there and come back?"

"Well, if we hurry, we could be back by tonight."

"Boss, that's enough nonsense. Go get the gift box you prepared."

With a slightly crestfallen face, Kaneff went to fetch the gift box.

He's really changed a lot. I watched his retreating figure with a small smile.

Kaneff and I went forward with the gift box we had prepared and presented it to Speranza.

"Hmm, Speranza this is a gift from Sihyeon and me."

"A gift from Papa and Boss Uncle?"

Speranza's eyes sparkled with anticipation.

"Well, it's not anything special. It's just something we thought you'd like"

"Hehehe."

"Kkukku"

Several people chuckled at Kaneff's stuttering. He quickly turned his head and gave them a stern look, quieting their laughter. I nudged him with my elbow.

"Boss, give her the gift already. Speranza's waiting."

"Uh, yeah. Here you go."

Speranza, receiving the gift box, asked in an excited voice.

"Can I open it now?"

"Of course."

As soon as I gave her permission, Speranza quickly untied the ribbon and lifted the lid of the box.

Inside was something with colorful hues.

"What's this?"

"It's a hanbok."

"A hanbok?"

"It's a traditional dress from the country where Papa was born. Not many people wear it daily, but it's often worn on special occasions."

"Wow."

Speranza took out the hanbok and looked at it from various angles. Kaneff watched her reactions nervously, worrying if she might not like it.

"Papa, can I try this on now?"

"You want to?"

"I'll help you."

"Me too!"

When Speranza said she wanted to try it on herself, Lia and Lilia stepped forward to assist her.

The two of them took Speranza and the hanbok to a nearby room.

After a while

Speranza, dressed in the hanbok, re-entered the room.

She wore a ruby-colored skirt with a jeogori (jacket) featuring colorful sleeves.

She had adorable flower shoes on her feet, and her hair was adorned with accessories that matched the hanbok.

I couldn't help but admire her absolutely adorable appearance.

Even the anxious Kaneff brightened up instantly after seeing her dressed in the hanbok.

He whispered to me in an excited voice.

"How is it? I told you it would suit her, didn't I?"

"Yes, yes. It's all thanks to you, Boss."

Speranza, wearing the hanbok, came over to us and did a full turn.

She looked even more beautiful and adorable up close.

"Hehe! Papa, does it look good on me?"

Speranza asked with a playful smile in her eyes. I nodded vigorously, almost shaking.

"It suits you perfectly, sweetheart! Right, Boss?"

"Uh yes! You look so beautiful."

At our compliments, Speranza beamed.

"Thank you, Papa. Boss Uncle!"

Then she gave both me and Kaneff a hug.

"Hahaha"

Kaneff, his emotions overflowing, gently stroked Speranza's hair.

Following this, the others also showered Speranza with compliments about her hanbok outfit until they were practically out of breath.

Each time, Kaneff puffed up his chest, reminding everyone that he had personally chosen the outfit.

Afterward, laughter filled the farm building nonstop.

As the day grew darker.

Speranza's eyelids started to droop.

"Speranza, are you sleepy? Should I take you to bed?"

"Uh-huh. I want to play more."

Even as she said she wanted to play more, her eyelids kept drooping. I held Speranza in my arms and whispered in her ear.

"Did you enjoy your birthday party?"

"Un I had so much fun."

"We'll have another birthday party next year."

" promise."

"Yes, promise!"

Having promised another birthday party the next year, Speranza slowly drifted off to sleep.

And.

A smile of pure happiness, more so than ever before, was on Speranza's lips.
