Accidentally become a father-Chapter 62: Observation of the Hair-Washing Experiment

---

I stood near the bathroom door.

Yuna stood under the showerhead.

She was still wearing a towel, wrapped in a... rather precarious way.

She stared at the shower controls with a serious expression.

---

"...Papa."

"Hm."

"This one?"

She pointed at the water lever.

"Yes."

She turned the lever slowly.

Water poured out instantly.

"Ah—!"

Yuna took a step back.

The water hit the floor.

"...Startled."

"That’s water."

"I know..."

She tried again.

---

This time, she put her hand under the stream first.

"...It’s warm."

She looked a little relieved.

Then, she stepped under the shower.

The water hit her hair.

Her long hair immediately fell straight down, covering her face.

She blinked a few times.

"...Weird."

"What’s weird?" 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"There’s a lot of water."

"That’s the point."

She lifted her face a little so her hair wouldn’t cover her eyes.

Water dripped from the ends of her hair.

Then, she reached for the shampoo bottle.

She read the label with utmost seriousness.

---

"...Use a little."

"Correct."

She squeezed out the shampoo.

Too much.

The white liquid almost filled her entire palm.

She stared at her hand.

"...A little."

I spoke flatly.

"That’s a lot."

Yuna panicked slightly for a moment.

"...What now?"

"Just use it."

She gave a quick nod.

Then she pressed the shampoo into her hair.

A few seconds later...

Suds began to form.

And kept multiplying.

There was so much of it.

---

Yuna stopped moving.

"...Papa."

"Hm."

"...This is too much."

"Yes."

The suds were already covering almost half of her head.

She tried to scrub her hair like she had seen on television.

Her movements were extremely cautious.

"...Does it sting?"

"Not yet."

"Good."

She scrubbed some more.

Then she suddenly stopped.

Her eyes squeezed shut.

"...Papa."

"Hm."

"...I think it got in my eye."

I said simply.

"Rinse."

She immediately ducked under the water.

The water flowed over her hair.

The suds started to wash away.

But there was still a lot left.

She blinked a few times.

"...It stings a little."

"That’s normal."

She nodded slowly.

Then she went back to rinsing her hair.

About thirty seconds later...

She turned to look at me.

Her hair was sticking to her cheeks.

"...Papa."

"Hm."

"...Is there still any left?"

I inspected her hair.

There were still suds.

"Still some left."

She let out a small sigh.

"...Washing hair is hard."

"You used too much shampoo."

"Important data."

I stared at her.

She gave a faint smile.

Probably mimicking the way I speak.

She went back to rinsing her hair.

This time, she took longer.

The water kept flowing.

The suds finally washed away almost entirely.

She turned to me again.

"...Now?"

I looked more closely.

"All clear."

She immediately looked relieved.

"...Success."

"Yes."

She turned off the shower.

The water stopped.

Yuna stood still for a few seconds.

Wet hair clung to her face.

Then she gave a faint smile.

A very satisfied smile.

"...Papa."

"Hm."

"...I can wash my hair by myself."

"Yes."

She looked very proud.

Then she added in a small voice.

"...But if Papa helps... it might be faster."
