Waking up the next morning.
The first thing Tokai felt was the difference in body temperature.
Compared to herself, Maruzensky's temperature was a bit higher.
And feeling this, Tokai didn't make many movements.
Because today was December 31st, Tokai also had no restaurant work to handle.
Therefore, in this situation.
Tokai could also enjoy a rare period of rest.
So, she didn't move much, just letting Maruzensky hold her.
And about half an hour later, Maruzensky finally woke up.
Opening her eyes, Maruzensky looked at Tokai, who was extremely close to her, her mind not yet fully grasping what was happening.
She then heard Tokai's voice.
"Good morning?"
"Mm, good morning..."
After unconsciously responding, Maruzensky finally reacted: "Ah, Shizen!"
"What's wrong?"
As if yesterday's events hadn't happened, Tokai responded to Maruzensky's voice with her usual tone.
Tokai's response made the expression on Maruzensky's face soften considerably.
And looking at Maruzensky like this, Tokai simply continued: "It's almost ten o'clock now, let go."
Hearing Tokai say this, Maruzensky just nodded, then released one hand. As for the other hand?
"Shizen, my hand is a little numb..."
Maruzensky's face showed considerable embarrassment.
"I understand. Get up after you've rested well."
Saying this, Tokai directly got out of bed.
And it was only when the bedding left Tokai's body that Maruzensky noticed something else.
That was, Tokai seemed... "Shizen?"
"What's wrong?"
"You..."
"No pajamas, and..."
As if anticipating what Maruzensky wanted to say, Tokai continued, "Last night, I made a little preparation."
Saying this, Tokai looked at Maruzensky.
Just this eye contact made many unspoken things clear to Maruzensky.
After understanding this, Maruzensky just opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Looking at Maruzensky like this, Tokai calmly put on her clothes, then continued, "I'm going to make breakfast. Come down quickly~"
Saying this, Tokai put on her last outer garment and left the bedroom.
Watching Tokai leave.
Maruzensky just lay back down on the bed and let out a long sigh.
Although everything was like before, but... that was the problem.
Maruzensky, looking at the ceiling, finally gritted her teeth, then she propped herself up with her still somewhat numb hand.
Just as Tokai reminded her, she should get up.
Thinking this, Maruzensky looked at herself, and then she realized something else.
She seemed to have... Maruzensky, thinking of this, was silent for a moment, then turned her head.
She didn't know how to deal with this now.
You know, Maruzensky's bedroom was on the first floor.
Although if she went down like this, she wouldn't feel bad.
After all, this was her home, and she had done it before when she found it troublesome.
But now that Tokai was also here... Maruzensky, thinking of this, rubbed her head in frustration.
Although she didn't care much last night, being seen naked in the dark and being seen completely uncovered without any darkness were two different experiences.
So... a soft knock on the door interrupted Maruzensky's thoughts.
"Maruzen, I took a set of clothes from your room and put them at the door. Remember to change into them."
After the words ended, Maruzensky heard footsteps gradually fading away.
Listening to Tokai's fading footsteps, Maruzensky was silent for a few seconds, then stood up.
After opening the door, Maruzensky saw a set of clothes placed at the entrance.
She took the neatly folded clothes into the room, and then Maruzensky slowly began to dress.
Before long, Maruzensky was dressed.
After putting on her clothes, Maruzensky didn't linger in the bedroom. She just quickly walked downstairs.
And then... "Breakfast is ready."
Saying this, Tokai placed two breakfasts on the dining table.
Seeing this scene, Maruzensky just nodded, then sat opposite Tokai.
The breakfast Tokai prepared was not Japanese, but more like a European-style breakfast. But thinking about it, it made sense, as there wasn't much time, so this was all she could make.
Maruzensky, noticing this, just picked up the fork placed aside, then looked at Tokai: "Shizen?"
"What's wrong?"
"Can you stay?"
"...Sorry."
The same apology, but today it was uttered by a different person.
But hearing this, Maruzensky's face showed a slight smile. She looked at Tokai, then continued, "Oh, that's a real shame."
Saying this, Maruzensky shifted her gaze slightly, then continued, "Shizen?"
Looking up at Maruzensky.
After a long silence between the two looking at each other, Maruzensky continued, "I want to fall in love~"
"Love?"
Tokai understood Maruzensky's pointed words, but... looking at the expression on her face, Tokai shook her head: "I'm sorry."
"Oh, then Shizen?"
"What's wrong?"
"My confession failed. Can you spend a day with me to comfort me?"
Her voice gradually became normal.
And listening to Maruzensky's words, Tokai just ate her breakfast, then responded, "Okay~"
"Shizen~~~"
Saying this, Maruzensky was about to pounce on her.
But Tokai held her back with one hand: "Alright, alright, eat breakfast first."
——————
Sitting in the restaurant, Mochizuki's face was full of melancholy... "Mochizuki, what's wrong?"
"Teio, we might be getting another mom."
Saying this, Mochizuki looked at Teio.
But her words didn't stop.
"Next, you can drink honey special drinks every day, and I won't need to skip grades to earn money for the family."
Listening to Tokai's words, Teio just tilted her head: "Mochizuki, what are you talking about?"
"Mom might be remarrying."
"Eh?"
"Eh!!!!"
