Biting the towel...

"…Are you two living together?"

After listening to his explanation, Ogata's cheeks puffed up even more, like a little hamster with seeds in its mouth.

"Ahem, not living together." Furuhashi waved his hand quickly, suddenly becoming wise, "I've rented a room for Asakawa-san… so it's a shared lease!"

"Share rent?"

Ogata tilted his head, with a confused expression on his face, as if thinking about the difference between living together and renting together.

"For some reason, I had a disagreement with dad and didn't want to cause trouble for you, so I chose to share the rent."

As Furuhashi spoke, he begged Naoki for help.

Sorry, Ricchan.

At this time, I can only tell lies, I will unlock the folder password as soon as possible, and then go home as soon as possible.

"Ogata." Naoki looked at Ogata "Are you done sending udon noodles?"

Ogata subconsciously shook his head: "Not yet."

"Then deliver quickly, don't keep the guests waiting."

"Okay." Ogata nodded lightly, his expression calmed, "I'll send Udon first."

"...Goodbye Ricchan."

Furuhashi waved his hand.

Watching Ogata leave with a box of food, Furuhashi was a little disbelieving, "Ricchan just left?"

"If not?" Naoki shrugged, "Ogata can't keep us in the dungeon in a rage?"

"Won't." Furuhashi raised his eyes angrily, and then hesitantly said, "But I always felt that… Ricchan wouldn't give up so easily."

Naoki walked towards the convenience store: "Let's go, buy the ingredients."

"Um."

....

After buying the materials, Naoki and Furuhashi returned to the apartment.

"I'm back."

As Furuhashi spoke, she turned on the light.

Naoki put the ingredients in his hands and looked at Furuhashi:

"Did you take a shower first?"

"You take a shower first." Furuhashi shook his head, took off his shoes, and took off his stockings, and sighed softly, "I take a slow shower, Asakawa-san is faster."

"Okay." Naoki agreed, took the remote control, and turned on the air conditioner, "I'll take a shower first, then I'll cook."

The two didn't get on the train, and walked back from the clinic all the way, they didn't feel anything outside. When they entered the apartment, they suddenly felt unbearable heat and wanted to take a shower to cool off.

Naoki took his shirt and shorts, turned around and walked to the bathroom.

"So hot~ Eat an ice cream bar."

Furuhashi walked to the fridge, opened the fridge, and took out a bar of ice cream.

The cold drink in the fridge was the snack she bought at the convenience store with Naoki yesterday afternoon, she peeled the wrapping paper and took a bite.

"Huh... I'm safe."

Eating ice cream, Furuhashi walked to the hamster cage, took some sunflower seeds, and fed the hamster.

Outside the balcony is dim.

As night fell, the residential area that was quiet during the day gradually became bustling. Some people are chatting and walking under the community, and some people are cooking, it is also perfectly integrated into the fireworks of this world.

Compared to the lonely house that never had a lamp waiting for him to return, Furuhashi liked this more.

5 minutes later.

Naoki came out of the bathroom and looked at Furuhashi who was happily feeding the hamster: "I'm done."

"Eh?" Furuhashi was surprised. "You showered too fast!"

"I took a cold shower, and the speed was naturally fast." Naoki said: "I don't think there's anything wrong, boys shower very quickly in summer, and they can wash their hair and take a shower in 5 minutes. It's not like you guys need an hour to wash your hair."

"It's not too much like an hour." Furuhashi took a bite of the ice cream and said, "It's only been half an hour."

Wash your hair for half an hour, do you still think that the time is very short!

"Barley tea." Furuhashi pointed at the teacup on the table, "I just poured you a cup of barley tea."

Naoki took his cup, took a sip of barley tea, and said:

"Go take a shower, come out after bathing, and I'll help you treat the burn."

"Know."

...

Naoki finished drinking barley tea and started preparing dinner. With the speed of Furuhashi's bath, she came out of the bathroom and had almost eaten.

As a result, the materials had not been washed, and suddenly there was a muffled thud in the bathroom, followed by a pained sound.

"Furuhashi?"

Naoki walked out of the bathroom door.

"I-I'm fine..." Furuhashi sighed lightly from the bathroom, "Asakawa-san, don't worry."

Her voice trembled, how could she be fine!

Naoki did not enter, but said earnestly:

"Open the door."

"I'm still showering..."

"Open the door."

After a brief silence, the bathroom door gently opened the gap.

Naoki pushed the door open and looked at Furuhashi who was kneeling on the ground, covering herself with a towel. In his eyes, a clear mist was clearly visible, and she was on the verge of tears.

"The last time I fell in the shower was when I was in elementary school."

Naoki reached out his hand and pulled Furuhashi up, and let her sit on a small plastic stool, "What do you think about high school students falling in the bathroom?"

"It's an accident, it has nothing to do with age. Even if it's a student, someone will fall into the bathroom." Furuhashi covered his chest with his right hand and lightly sniffed, "Asakawa-san can come out. "

Naoki looked at the ground: "Did you step on the soap?"

"Not." Furuhashi said sadly, "...While I was taking a shower earlier, the water hit my right leg, and it suddenly hurt."

Naoki said wordlessly, "Did you use hot water?"

"Women and men are not the same." Furuhashi whispered, "Of course I have to use hot water to bathe in the summer."

"No problem with hot water." Naoki sighed, "But the scalded part is its weak point, and washing with hot water will inflict critical damage."

Furuhashi said pitifully, "I didn't think much of it when I showered earlier."

Naoki quickly said:

"Just do it now."

"Eh?"

"Heal the burn now."

"But…" Furuhashi blushed, "Not comfortable now…"

I only have a towel on my body, but it's still a place like a bathroom, it's a shame to think about it!

Naoki just agreed: "Then I will go out."

"Eh?"

Furuhashi raised his eyes in surprise, but Naoki agreed.

"Continue bathing." Naoki said quietly, "If you don't want to scream in pain, you can bite the towel."

Furuhashi: "😐"
