Chapter 37:- Last week in the rain part 2

It took Kenshin nearly two hours to prepare everything since it was a feast. But by the time he was done, both the ladies were already drooling.

"How on earth can you cook this well? I feel like my hunger grew just from smelling it." Konan said, wiping her drool.

"It feels so wrong seeing you like this. But it's obvious why he's so good at cooking. He's Kana Uzumaki's son after all." Kana said, proudly puffing out her chest.

"Awfully nice of you to take credit for my hard work." Kenshin said with an amused smile as he brought everything to the table. But all of it didn't fit in their small table. "I may have gotten a bit carried away." Kenshin said with an awkward chuckle.

"It's fine. We can just finish one item and then bring another." Konan suggested, and they all began eating. The atmosphere became filled with their laughter, a stark contrast to the gloomy quietness that was present for the past 7 years.

'God I've missed this. Sitting around a table eating and laughing and stuff. It feels nice.' Kenshin thought, as a few tears formed in his eyes but didn't fall.

"Here, open up." Konan picked up a piece of fried chicken and attempted to feed Kenshin.

"It's fine, I can eat on my own." Kenshin felt embarrassed being fed by Konan but she kept insisting.

"Why not, Ken-chan? You did ask me to spoil you back then. So why not let Konan do it as well?" Kana said, watching with an amused expression.

"Okay, fine." His face turned slightly red as he let her feed him, and he could hear Kana giggling at his embarrassment.

The rest of the evening went by in a flash, and after dinner, Kenshin went to prepare warm water for a bath while Kana took care of the dishes.

"You know, when you two came back, I could sense that there was some kind of tension between you two." Konan said, watching Kana from behind.

"Yeah. We had.... some issues." Kana replied awkwardly.

"I won't pry but I assume you've resolved them?"

"Yes! We're just like before now! I think...." Kana in her heart was still torn because this wasn't something that could be resolved this quickly. It'd take time, but Kana decided to act just as before with Kenshin.

"Well it's fine. He's a good kid, and I know that you love him more than anything. You'll come around, whatever it is."

"Thanks. I hope that happens."

A few minutes later, Kenshin came back to ask Kana to take a bath, which she refused to.

"I absolutely will not! It's the middle of winter!" Kana shouted, trying to run away from Kenshin.

"Come on, mom! You haven't bathed for almost ten days! You stink. And stop acting like a child, you're getting too old for that." Kenshin said, following Kana.

"How dare you call me old! And I smell just fine!" Kana retorted, acting betrayed. "You hear that, Konan?! My son thinks I'm old."

Suddenly, paper started covering Kana's body, restraining her. "Here you go. One Kana ready to go." Konan brought the restrained Kana to Kenshin.

"Even my friend isn't on my side!" Unwillingly, Kana went inside. And Konan went away saying that she forget to bring her clothes.

But after a few seconds, Kana called Kenshin, poking her head out from the bathroom door.

"Uhh, son? You mind helping mommy out? I haven't done this for years. I'm scared, what if I trip or something?"

"I guess I have no choice. I'll join." Kenshin sighed, quickly taking his clothes off.

"Thanks." Kana opened the door, letting him inside.

[Sometime later]

Konan came back with a small bag in hand, containing just her clothes and some essentials.

"I don't think Kana's out of her bath yet. Guess I'll join her." She put her bag in Kana's room and went to join Kana, unaware that Kenshin was there.

"You know, mom, we haven't done this in a while." Kenshin said while washing Kana's back.

"Done what?" Kana asked, clearly confused.

"I mean, ever since you lost your ability to move, you couldn't sit properly. And so I couldn't wash your back like this."

"Yeah, I remember that. And the bathroom was a lot smaller too, right? You had to make this whole place bigger so that I could lie down comfortably here." Kana said, turning around to wash his.

"And I even bought that big tub for you."

Suddenly, they heard Konan's voice from outside. "Kana, I'm joining in if you don't mind."

"Go ahead." Kana replied, forgetting that Kenshin was there.

"All right." Konan slid the door open, completely naked and holding a towel in her hand.

And when she saw Kenshin inside with Kana, her face turned bright red. For a few long moments, she stared at them, unsure of how to react.

"It's not what you think it is!" Kana said, immediately getting up and grabbing Konan's arm as she tried to leave.

"You know how I'm like, really clumsy? And when I was sick, Ken-chan used to bathe me like this. So I asked him to join me in case something happens." Kana explained, and Konan seemed to understand kanas reasoning, though her face remained flushed.

Reluctantly, she joined them.

'The robes do her dirty. Those things are definitely bigger than Tsunade's. I think.... they're at least over 110.' Kenshin thought, secretly observing Konan's naked figure.

'She used to be my second favorite waifu after Kushina in my other life. That version of me in my younger days would've killed to take a bath with her. And yet I'm not even getting an erection right now.' Kenshin thought, looking down at his unerect member.

'I think it's more like I'm used to seeing a beautiful naked lady, that's why I'm not getting excited.'

While Kenshin was going on with his inner thoughts, Konan noticed him occasionally glancing at her, though his body clearly wasn't getting excited.

'Am I not attractive? To think that he's not even getting an erection even though he's clearly checking out my body. But I think my breasts are decent. Must be something about my character.' Konan thought, letting out a disappointed sigh.

'But it's not like I have a chance. He's just a kid. And I'm nearly as old as his mother. He probably isn't interested in me. Who would be?!' Konan scoffed internally. 'Although I do wish he would at least get a boner.'

'Wait! What the hell am I thinking?! I'm his elder sister, not....!' To distract herself from him, she focused on washing herself, though she did feel somewhat insecure now.
