My daily life with the Shiina sisters

Is that what he was thinking just now?

Suddenly, a feeling of loss and emptiness filled the living room.

It continued to ring after being turned off for five minutes, I don't know if it was intentional or not.

The phone with the camera function turned on.

The girl in home clothes appeared on the screen.

A face that is unforgettable even without makeup.

"I ate a little too much tonight." The soft murmur did not break the silence of the living room.

She has always been a hard worker.

After a short rest, he stood up to clean up the dishes and looked at the two sets of dishes in front of him.

She seemed to think of his embarrassment when he ran away in a hurry just now. That's right, he usually put his tableware by the sink obediently.

The movements of her hands became lighter as her mood changed. By the sink, the girl was washing dishes while humming a song she had overheard.

……

To vibrate,

Consciousness,

ずっと neighbor にいてくれませんか.

I think it's good for you.

……

After returning to her room, she put all her clothes and some bottles and jars in the bathroom into a woven bag, and then walked to Imagawa Kaede's door.

She mustered up the courage to press the doorknob, and the door opened as she expected.

The boy in the room didn't seem to notice her. He slumped in the chair, looking like a student two days before the end of summer vacation, struggling between "one day and two nights miracle" and "one stroke and one night miracle".

She closed the door quietly, put the woven bag aside, and then used two soft little hands to tentatively massage his temples.

"Thank you."

She couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad from his tone, but seeing his expression gradually relaxing and his squinting eyes exactly the same as Aqua's when she was being treated by the brush, she knew that her massage was effective.

However, what followed was a feeling that was almost the same as when petting a cat, which made her smile.

"No inspiration?"

The gentle voice made him feel like a spring breeze.

After the dense but orderly characters in the document, a string of garbled characters appeared, and the cursor flashed mischievously at the end.

"It's not that I lack inspiration. The plot is already planned. I'm just a little tired. No, this should be some kind of adaptive disorder."

"Adjustment disorder?"

“Yeah, I probably have adaptive coding procrastination.”

Listening to his somewhat stubborn words, she would usually pretend to believe and agree with his sophistry. But today, she wanted to tease him.

"Why don't you read it out loud and I'll type it for you."

"Uh... No, I feel like that would be embarrassing."

"Oh~ forget it then. By the way, do you want to take a bath?"

"I'm fine with that. Mahiru, are you done washing downstairs?"

Imagawa Kaede thought that Mahiru had put hot water in the bathroom on the first floor and was now asking him if he wanted to take a bath.

"Not washed yet."

"No wonder I didn't smell that fragrance." He said this and pretended to take a deep breath.

Seeing his behavior, Mahiru pinched the flesh on his face a few times before saying:

"Then I'll put the hot water on."

"Well, press it for a while, it feels very comfortable."

"Take a shower first."

"Okay~"

Seeing that he looked a little aggrieved, Mahiru said:

"The bathtub downstairs wastes too much water. Use the one in your room."

"okay."

"There seems to be something wrong with the shower in my room..."

She didn't expect him to agree so quickly that she didn't even have time to finish her words.

"fine."

Seeing this, she carried the bag beside her into the bathroom.

……

"You go and wash first."

"Uh... Mahiru, are you afraid that I'll secretly drink your bath water?"

"Go!"

"Hi, good, good."

"Aren't you going to take a change of clothes?"

Imagawa Kaede: scratching his head and laughing.jpg

"By the way, you may want to use some of the conditioner in there..."

"Okay, okay, I understand."

Although a little cunning, she confessed her love this time.

PS:

Current residence:

High-rise duplex tower top floor

First floor: entrance hall, small cloakroom, guest toilet, nanny room, living room, large bathroom, study, dining room, non-open kitchen.

Second floor: master bedroom, second bedroom, second bedroom

The master bedroom is larger and has a bathtub in the bathroom, while the second bedroom is smaller and has only a shower in the bathroom.

Because it is a duplex, the theoretical area of ​​the second floor will definitely overlap with part of the living room on the first floor.

Double-layer integrated floor-to-ceiling windows.

Balcony... No, the high-rise building is enclosed in one piece.

A place to hang clothes… a large bathroom or a dryer above the washing machine?
