The next morning, Sajuna patted her cheeks, recalling what happened last night, and couldn't help but shiver twice.
When she had agreed to sleep with Marin and Nowa before, she had only thought that they were all girls and hadn't considered their personalities at all.
Marin's excitement at sleeping with the cosplayer she had always admired was self-evident, and Nowa, as Marin's friend, with her friendly, gyaru personality, would not have any awkwardness in her interactions with Sajuna.
What's more, her previous relationship with Kouki had been facilitated by Aki-Kun, so Sajuna could actually be considered their benefactor.
Marin and Nowa excitedly whispered to Sajuna for half the night, constantly curious about her and Aki-Kun's past relationship and their daily life as a couple.
If she hadn't brought up the topic of Marin and Wakana, causing Marin to shyly hide under the covers, who knows how long they would have kept going.
Recalling the previous night's experience, Sajuna smiled again. No matter what, playing with these two girls actually made her quite happy, especially discovering Marin's personality, which was completely different from her gyaru appearance. Although sometimes she felt she was too familiar and close, she still found her quite likable.
As for Nowa, Sajuna, with her limited understanding of people, believed that 'birds of a feather flock together.' As Marin's friend, the girlfriend of Aki-Kun's friend, and a couple personally brought together by Aki-Kun, Nowa must also be a good girl.
Thinking this, Sajuna looked at the two people still sleeping in bed, slipped out of the covers, washed up, changed her clothes, and then went out into the yard. Watching the sun slowly rise in the sky, she couldn't help but yawn. Then she turned her head and saw that the three boys were already up, seemingly doing their morning exercises. She couldn't help but find a seat and watch them.
Aki-Kun finished his morning exercise with Wakana and Kouki. Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his breathing was a little heavy. The other two, however, looked completely exhausted.
"Why are you all like this?"
"You all usually exercise, right?"
Aki-Kun asked in surprise.
"But the amount of exercise in the morning isn't this much."
Kouki replied, "Today's workout was all about pushing through."
"I, I don't usually exercise much, so, that's why I'm like this."
Wakana replied. He usually spent his free time making Hina dolls, let alone exercising every day.
So, among the three, Wakana had the worst physical fitness.
Aki-Kun wiped the sweat from his forehead. Just as he was about to turn around, he heard footsteps behind him, and then a clean tissue appeared in his line of sight, gently wiping the sweat from his forehead.
Aki-Kun cooperatively bent his waist and leaned his face closer so that Sajuna wouldn't have to stand on her tiptoes to wipe his sweat. He asked Sajuna with a smile,
"Why are you up so early?"
"Because I wanted to see Aki-Kun early."
Sajuna answered seriously. After wiping the sweat from Aki-Kun's forehead, she slowly caressed Aki-Kun's cheek.
"Sajuna, you're so gentle, you're making me shy."
Aki-Kun turned his face away, a little embarrassed, and saw Kouki and Wakana looking at him with smiles.
"Jealous, aren't you!"
"If you're jealous, let your girlfriends wipe your sweat for you."
"Compared to Nowa wiping my sweat, I'd rather take care of Nowa."
Kouki smiled, ran his hand through his hair, and replied.
Wakana nodded shyly, as his relationship with Marin had not yet been confirmed.
After the two of them greeted Sajuna, they followed Aki-Kun to discuss breakfast. It seemed that after yesterday's hospitality, they were already looking forward to what they would eat for each meal.
"Grandpa, what are we having for breakfast today?"
"Let's just make something simple this morning."
Aizawa Masato replied. Although he said it would be simple, from the preparation of the ingredients, it only meant a smaller quantity of dishes, but the deliciousness had not decreased much.
The two girls also woke up and washed up before eating. From their complexions, they had slept well last night and showed no signs of discomfort.
"Do you have any plans for today?"
Aizawa Masato looked at Aki-Kun, then at his friends, and interrupted Aki-Kun's attempt to speak, saying,
"You don't need to say anything about staying with me for a while. I'm doing quite well living alone in the countryside."
"This time I called you, Aki-Kun, it was just because I was worried about your recent living situation, so I wanted to see you."
"But seeing you now, my heart is at ease. There's nothing to worry about."
"Aki-Kun and your friends are from the city. You should take advantage of the time to explore the countryside. Just staying in this house really doesn't mean much."
"Thank you, Grandpa."
Aki-Kun expressed his gratitude.
"Sajuna-chan, you should also have fun. If Aki-Kun bullies you, just tell me directly."
"From now on, Aki-Kun will be entrusted to your care, Sajuna-chan."
Aizawa Masato said solemnly, bowing to Sajuna-chan and asking for her help.
These words should have been spoken by Aki-Kun's parents, but now he was the only one who could do it. Aizawa Masato hoped his grandson could live a happy life with the girl in front of him.
"No, no, it's Aki-Kun who takes care of me."
Sajuna also quickly bowed.
Aki-Kun's grandfather is really serious, but the joyful feeling of being accepted by Aki-Kun's family slowly overflowed from her heart, making Sajuna feel a mix of emotions.
She felt as if she and Aki-Kun had entered the next stage of their relationship.
"I'm very happy that you, as Aki-Kun's friends, could come to the countryside. Although some things in the countryside are not as convenient as in the city, there are still many unusual things to see. I welcome everyone to come back and visit during future holidays. You are all very welcome here."
"Okay! As long as Akira-kun invites us, we'll definitely come!"
Nowa and Marin said excitedly.
Wakana and Kouki next to them also nodded. Going out with friends is also a very happy thing.
"But speaking of going out to play, did you bring what you need for camping?"
Aizawa Masato asked.
"Yes, yes, Akira -Grandpa, do you know anywhere good for camping?"
Nowa leaned closer and asked.
"The mountain behind the backyard will do. Not only that, but there's also a decent-sized river on the mountain. You can play by the river all day."
"Yay!"
"Marin, did you bring a swimsuit for the river? I've been imagining playing by the river!"
"Of course I did!"
Aki-Kun looked at the two girls opposite, so excited, then turned to look at Sajuna.
"Sajuna, did you bring one?"
Sajuna shyly turned her face away, her lips slightly pouting, and her cheeks flushed pink.
"I did."
