Leaving the squid games was the best thing to ever happen in your life. Well that's what your mind said when everyone voted to leave.

Now you were back in the real world, sleeping and eating wasn't guaranteed like it was in the games, it was a harsh kick in the ass, a rough wake up call to the real world

At the least you were still in touch with your fellow mates like, Young-sik, Young-mi, Gem-ja, and most of all Hyun-ju. She was the one who's been helping you out the most

You struggled with eating, bathing, and sleeping. Basic needs that were easy to complete but impossible for you do, as it felt. She would bring over hot meals and you would have movie nights with the girls and Hyun-ju cheered internally when you would fall asleep during the movie

That was until one night, your mind slipped, the pressure of work and the aching in your stomach mixed with the exhaust that was pulling your eyes down made you break down. Hyun-ju happened to witness this because she was bringing your favorite Korean dish, and when you didn't answer the door, she hurriedly came in with no knock and found you on the living room floor, sobbing and sucking your thumb, rocking back and fourth. She quickly consoled you and made sure you were and took a quick shower after, she even slept over on the couch to make sure you were okay

**While you were sleeping he even searched up reasons why you were acting like that, slurred speech, childish habits and excessive crying and found answers. Age Regression. So she looked more into it, seeing it was a healthy outlet of dealing with stress and often came when your needs were at a desperate decline and needed replenishing such as what happened to you. Hyun-ju knew you had a rough childhood, being the oldest came with the downside of acting older at your youngest age and that's what she assumed it came from.

She learned more about it, how little's often had caregivers and that thought intrigued her, the thought of taking care of you, playing with things such as simple as blocks and coloring and making sure you got naps and cute little goldfish crackers for snacks and drinking from cute print sippy cups seemed like something she wouldn't be totally against

That morning over breakfast she talked with you about it, the Age Regression and what happened, asking if that had happened before and what not. She suggested that you should look into it, regressing and the thought of having her as your caregiver. So you agreed to test it out

Now you were sitting in your living room in front of the coffee table, crisscross apple sauce while coloring Hello Kitty coloring pages and Strawberry shortcake playing on the TV. A pastel pink pacifier bobbing in your mouth gently, a sippy cup with a strawberry design next to you filled with chilled water, you were wearing a cute pink shirt with the Paw Patrol character "Skye" on it and some cozy white joggers, making you feel cozy and extra little.

Hyun-ju watched you from the kitchen, making a small snack that consisted of Goldfish and yogurt bites in a cute pink bowl that she got for you, you both looked through little items and you picked out things and Hyun-ju was more than happy to help pay, since she was now your caregiver
