"I AN, it's not that I have anything against Oga x Oga relationship. But I just personally just don't feel attracted to soone of the sa secondary gender," Robin continued.
Haneul didn't really have a problem with Robin's preference. The surprising thing here was the fact that the other was actually an Oga. It was a good thing that he wasn't drinking or eating anything when he heard Robin say that. Or else, he would have choked by now.
He couldn't help but stare at Robin once again. With his height and physique, it was easy to mistake him for an Alpha. It's not that Haneul was being judgntal or had a preconceived notion of what an Alpha or Oga should look like, but no one would bla him for assuming Robin was an Alpha. The surprised look on his mother's face confird she had thought the sa.
Haneul thought that he was already tall for an Oga. He didn't expect that there would be another Oga who was a few centitere taller than him. Maybe he also manifested late?
It seed that his mother also had the sa thoughts because he heard her asking;
"Please excuse my curiosity, but did Robin manifest late? It's okay if you'd rather not say."
"Oh, it's fine, Auntie," Robin said, his expression showing that he really didn't mind. "I've actually been asked that question many tis already. It's probably because I'm too tall for an Oga. People often assu my growth spurt had already ended when I manifested, but the truth is, I manifested at 14. My Oga dad is also really tall, so I guess I got my height from him. I also love to work out, so my physique is bigger compared to other Ogas."
What Haneul got from that, aside from the fact that Robin manifested at an age when Oga usually manifest, was that the one who gave birth to him was a male Oga. Considering that he had ntioned that he had a stepmother, then it's clear that his Oga dad was already separated or divorced from his other father.
This was another reality check for Haneul. The fact that so n could get pregnant in this world. Sothing that might happen to him soday. At that thought, his first reaction was to just clear it from his mind. To act like he never heard anything. But he stopped himself before he could.
Didn't he already tell himself that he would accept whatever changes that happened in his body? That he would no longer run away from this reality?
He took a deep breath and just let himself process the things he had heard. Once he did, he rembered what Yeomra said about parallel worlds being completely the sa but just have very tiny differences here and there.
This world had secondary genders, a change he didn't think was 'tiny' at all. Considering Robin ntioning his Oga dad, this person was probably a woman in Haneul's original world, right? He was sure that the sa changes were present all over the world.
If a person's gender had completely changed in this world, could one really consider that as a 'tiny' change?
The only response he had to that was, 'Damn Yeomra.'
Haneul was just glad that his parents didn't have this kind of alteration. He wasn't sure if he could still treat them the sa if the sex of one of them had changed. Because for him, it would be hard to think that they were the sa parent he had in his original world.
"It's fine to be tall. At least Robin is very handso."
Haneul heard his mother say, pulling his attention back to the current situation.
Robin smiled sheepishly. "Thank you, Auntie."
"Shall we eat?" His mother said, giving both Haneul and Robin disposable chopsticks. "Oh, but can you use chopsticks, Robin?" she asked worriedly when she belatedly rembered that Robin was a foreigner.
"Yes, Auntie. I'm very good at using chopsticks."
His mother let out a relieved sigh. "That's good. Then, let's eat. The two of you still have an audition later, so you have to eat more to have more energy."
And they finally started eating lunch.
During the course of the al, both his mother and Robin continued to talk. It was mostly his mother asking about Robin's experience as an Oga so far. She's probably interested in that because of Haneul.
Just by observing how she treated Robin—speaking gently to him and occasionally offering him food—one could see that she had completely let her guard down. Learning that Robin was an Oga had completely transford her initial cautious deanor.
If one saw this scene from start to finish without knowing anything about his mother, they might think that she had so sort of discrimination against Alphas. But no, it's just her being overprotective of his recently manifested Oga son.
She's probably just glad that there's another Oga who's auditioning alongside Haneul.
But that didn't an that her interaction with Robin was not genuine. It's very obvious that she liked the guy. In fact, by the end of their al, she almost looked like she wanted to adopt the other.
He didn't know if it was because his mother was just that easy to please, or if Robin simply had the ability to make people easily like him. Maybe it was a little bit of both.
Unknowingly, a smile appeared on Haneul's lips while watching the two.
