Fumino's New Year

World of dreams.

"This is… a hospital?"

Seeing the familiar hospital corridor in front of her, Fumino quickly woke up, and turned his head to see Naoki beside her: "Have we entered the dream world?"

"Already entered."

Naoki nodded.

"Why is this a hospital?" Fumino asked confusedly, "It's supposed to be New Years, right?"

"This dream is dominated by your father." Naoki explained, "...Uncle is in front, let's follow and see."

Ah, hurry up.

The two quickly followed, and soon arrived at the familiar door of the ward.

The difference was that this time, Fumino's mother was not sitting alone on the bed, but was changing into her home clothes, and there was a smiling nurse next to her:

"Congratulations to the patient on his recovery."

Fumino bit her lower lip.

Watching her mother go under the torment of a serious illness, but she could do nothing about it, was her father's eternal pain.

Therefore, Reiji's New Year's wish was very simple. He only hoped that his wife would get well and get out of the hospital.

"Come in and help get things."

Naoki led Fumino into the ward, and said politely:

"Auntie, good morning."

"This is Naoki-kun, good morning." Shizuru smiled, apparently in a good mood "When are you and Fumino getting married?"

"Ehhh?"

Fumino's face quickly turned red, and she couldn't hold back her voice, "Mom, what are you talking about! It's too early to get married!"

Even if she was still a high school student and had not even reached the age of legal marriage, even if she agreed, the law would not agree!

"What is Fumino talking about?" Shizuru tilted her head to look, and her tone was confused, "Didn't you guys already graduate?"

"Eh?"

Fumino was stunned, and couldn't help looking at Naoki.

"Don't look at me, it has nothing to do with me." Naoki shook his head, his eyes beckoning to Fumino. "This is your father's dream."

Reiji smiled, completely different from the decadent appearance in the real world, and was full of energy in his dream:

"You and Naoki have graduated from university, it's time to get married, just like your mother and I."

Reihi said and looked at Naoki: "Naoki... Fumino will leave it to you from now on."

Fumino:"😐"

She understands.

Father has not one, but two New Year's resolutions.

My first New Year's resolution was for Mom to be well enough to leave the hospital and come home.

The second New Year's resolution... is to wish her happiness herself.

"Uncle, don't worry, I will take good care of Fumino." Naoki said with a serious expression. "I successfully proposed to Fumino yesterday, and we will be getting married after New Years!"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Fumino's face turned red, and she reached out to pinch the soft flesh on Naoki's waist.

The dream world isn't a place outside the law, so Naoki won't be allowed to do whatever he wants!

Fumino didn't even agree to a formal relationship, so why did she get married right away?

"hissing..."

Naoki took a deep breath, turned to look at Shizuru Fumino "Auntie, Fumino is committing domestic violence."

Fumino:"😐"

Too brave to complain to mom.

After packing up the ward, Naoki and Fumino were in charge of retrieving Reiji's things going through various formalities, and the four of them left the hospital together.

Get out of the hospital.

Warm sunlight descended from the sky, making dreams difficult to distinguish from reality.

"Shizuru, you are finally out of the hospital."

The corners of Reiji's eyes moistened slightly.

Only those who have experienced a relative's serious illness in the hospital can realize how pleasant it is to leave the hospital.

Shizuru smiled gently: "Thank you for your hard work."

The two looked at each other, and the scent of affection quickly filled the air.

Fumino's eyes fell on her parents' tightly held hands, and she couldn't help but stare at Naoki.

"I can not do it."

Naoki raised his hands innocently, both hands full of objects.

Soon after, Reiji came home.

...

After returning home, Shizuru stretched and began to inspect the area.

"How long has the pine tree not been pruned, how did it become like this?"

"Why is this board cracked?"

"Umbrellas should be put away when not in use, and should not be left on the porch at will."

"The shoe cupboard is so messy, you need to separate the sandals from the leather shoes… Fumino, don't you and your father do the housework at home?"

You're right.

Fumino's culinary skills can only make omelet rice, and her household chores are so-so, even inferior to Rizu.

"Mom isn't home, so I don't care about homework."

Fumino didn't show any impatience, just smiled and acted like a baby.

Only after the loss will she know that his mother's scolding will also be kind and pleasant.

On a dark day in the dream world, it is natural to clean up and welcome the year.

Naoki and Fumino go to the supermarket and buy Kagami Mochi, Kadomatsu and Shimenawa to decorate the house.

Later in the afternoon, they cleaned the room together with Fumino's parents. The house was very large, and it took most of the afternoon to clean it.

"Very tired."

Fumino lay limply on the bed, and groaned weakly, "This is clearly a dream world, why am I still tired?"

"It's normal to be tired after cleaning all afternoon?"

Naoki sat down next to Fumino "Let me give you a massage."

"It hand hurts a lot." Fumino looked at her from the side, acting pitiful and flirtatious, "And it heel hurts too."

It's because you don't exercise enough in reality, and your brain subconsciously thinks that you'll be sick everywhere after cleaning for half a day. If it was the Yotsuba, it wouldn't hurt at all.

"Take off your clothes."

Naoki moved his finger.

"Why do I have to undress for a massage?"

"Ordinary massage parlors always ask customers to take off their clothes to have a better massage experience," Naoki said with a straight face.

"No, I refuse." Fumino puffed out her cheeks and couldn't help but complain, "You obviously want to bully people."

Naoki didn't feel embarrassed in the least: "This is a dream world, not reality, so it's fine to experience a full body massage, right?"

"That kind of thing…"

Fumino showed doubt.

There really seems to be no problem.

"Lie down and don't move, let me come over."

Naoki changed Fumino's clothes while talking.

It wasn't until the last of the girl's panties left on her body that Fumino realized it too late, covered his chest with his right hand, his face flushed red and said:

"Wait, why are you so skilled at undressing?"

"How many times have I practiced!"

...

After the full body massage, Naoki and Fumino went downstairs to help cook dinner together in the kitchen.

Dream time is 8 night.

The Red and White Song Concert was played on TV.

Fireworks continued to bloom outside the windows, lighting up the night sky.

"Fumino, Naoki, Happy New Year."

Shizuru smiled and raised her glass.

Fumino said softly: "Dad, Mom, Happy New Year."

...

Family of four having dinner happily. Naoki thought he was going to watch TV, but Fumino's parents got out paper and notebooks and started studying math problems together.

"The Dream World still hasn't forgotten this." Naoki couldn't help but say, "The introversion is too scary."

"Strange, Dad has seen the computer video left by Mom, why does he still think Mom is amazing?"

Fumino covered her mouth with her hand, and whispered into his ear.

"Auntie is lying." Naoki whispered.

"Eh?"

"Your mother is actually a genius girl." Naoki complained, "Mathematicians are very gifted, and people without talent, no matter how hard they work, are unlikely to achieve success in mathematics."

In the video of Fumino's mother, she said that she was an ordinary person at first, and she taught herself to get close to Fumino's father, and then became a rising star in the world of mathematics, this is a 100% humble word!

Humans can do anything in a hurry, except math.

....

The next day.

When Naoki opened his eyes, the sky outside the window grew brighter.

Fumino lay on his stomach like a cat, and the girl's breathing was warm and even.

"Ummm..."

Fumino opened his eyes in confusion, his eyes fell on Naoki's face, and she said in a confused tone:

"Asakawa-san, why are you in my room?"

Naoki was stunned: "...Rizu?"

"It's me."

"Long story..."

Naoki took out his cell phone and dialed Rizu's number.

After a while.

"Ahhhh! The body has been switched again!"

On the other end of the video call, Fumino had just been woken up, there was still a trace of wetness at the corner of his mouth, and his pajama collar was opened, revealing two looming breasts, "Ricchan , listen to me!"

After listening to her explanation, Rizu was already sitting down while running his fingers through his hair: "Fumino is lying."

"I'm not lying, that's how it happened." Fumino hurriedly said, "Asakawa-san can testify."

Rizu puffed out his cheeks slightly: "When I came back from Kamakura, Fumino clearly said that the next time I go to the dream world, I will be summoned to come along."

"That…" Fumino felt a little guilty, "Yesterday was New Years, and it was really late, so I didn't bother you."

"Even so, you should ask my opinion."

"Sorry, Ricchan, that's not going to happen." Fumino sincerely apologized, "I'll call you next time."

Naoki said beside him: "Do you want to change your body back today?"

"Of course." Fumino hurriedly said, "Today, I made an appointment with Kashima-chan and the others to pay the New Year's worship together. Ricchan will show his feet when she leaves."

"I also made an appointment with Sawako today to attend the New Year's visit together," said Rizu.

Naoki looked at Rizu, ready to help the two switch bodies.

"Don't kiss."

Rizu tilted his head to avoid it, and covered his lips with his hand.

Naoki covered his chest like he was struck by lightning: "Rizu starting to hate me?"

"I don't hate it." Rizu replied earnestly, "I haven't brushed my teeth yet."

...

Caring for oral health begins with brushing your teeth.

Naoki got dressed and went downstairs with Rizu. As they entered the bathroom, Rizu suddenly hummed in distress.

"What is wrong?"

Naoki squeezed out the toothpaste while looking at Rizu.

"The elbow touches the ulnar nerve." Rizu's small face contorted, obviously very uncomfortable.

Naoki was stunned.

It turned out to be a numb tendon that lies inside the elbow, and the technical term is the ulnar nerve. If Rizu accidentally touched it, it would cause her a great deal of pain, which was comparable to kicking a toe. So far it has not been distinguished which one is more uncomfortable.

Looking at the pitiful and wrinkled Rizu, Naoki looked at the toothbrush in his hand, and suddenly suggested:

"How about I brush my teeth for you?"

"Eh?"

Rizu looked confused, and said in a confused tone, "Brushing your teeth isn't just washing your face, how can you ask someone to help you?"

Naoki said: "Try it and you will know."

"Then give it a try."

Rizu didn't hesitate, and quickly agreed.

As a girl who is gifted in science, Rizu is always very curious and thirsty for knowledge.

Naoki walked towards Rizu and stretched out his hand, and wrapped his left hand around the girl's slender waist to stabilize her body.

"His body is being pressed... I feel a bit uncomfortable."

Rizu slightly twisted his body.

"Do not move." Naoki looked in the mirror, and the girl's face in the mirror was already blushing. "This posture is correct, be careful not to get the toothpaste on your clothes."

"Un."

"Open your mouth."

"Aaah..."

Rizu opened his mouth, revealing two rows of clam white teeth, as well as an attractive pink mouth.

Naoki held a toothbrush in his right hand and started to help brush his teeth.

Brushing your teeth may seem like a small thing, but it's often difficult to ask for help.

At this time, Rizu opened her eyes wide, stared at herself in the mirror with a blush, and suddenly felt embarrassed.

...

A few moments later.

Fumino and Rizu managed to switch bodies.

"Return..."

Fumino, who came back from the exchange, only showed a smile, and suddenly his legs softened, and she hurriedly propped up the sink beside her, "What, what happened?"

Fumino hurriedly looked at Naoki: "Why are my legs weak, and I'm about to falter?"

"There is still a heartbeat..."

Fumino held his chest with one hand, and he could clearly hear his heart beating like a deer "Her heartbeat is too fast, what were you and Ricchan doing in the bathroom?"

"I'm just doing a little favor." Naoki finished washing and returned his toothbrush "Look down if you don't believe me."

"... What did I see?"

Fumino looked down at those words.

"The clothes on your body are neat." Naoki said politely "What else can I do?"

....

Naturally, Naoki didn't have breakfast, after taking a shower, he greeted Fumino, and teleported back to his room.

It was only past 7 a.m., and Rin still refused to get up after all this time.

After shouting several times, she finally staggered down the stairs.

After eating the cold food ordered earlier, Rin's energy was replenished, and she raised her right hand and said:

"Temple worship!"

"Nanako-chan, come with us." Mrs. Sakura asked gently.

"Thank you, Aunt."

Nanako obediently agreed, since she didn't have any appointments to go shopping with anyone today, it would be nice to visit the New Year's shrine together.

As for Naoki, he naturally followed behind.

For the first visit in the new year, naturally the more famous the shrine, the better, and the more famous the shrine, the more people there would be.

After walking to the entrance of the shrine, Naoki couldn't help looking at Nanako.

Nanako just saw.

"Sorry."
