early morning.
When the alarm clock rang precisely at eight o'clock on the bedside table, the sleepy Mizuki Saya reached out from under the covers and turned off the annoying alarm clock.
Bright sunlight streamed in through the window.
She had only fallen asleep in the early hours of last night and seemed quite lazy, with the thought of sleeping for another five minutes swirling in her mind.
However, due to the constraint of needing to attend school, she gritted her teeth and reluctantly sat up from the bed.
"Woo-ha-a~"
She yawned widely, her mind still a complete blank.
She glanced at the alarm clock next to her, which already showed 8:03, then threw off the covers, got out of bed in a daze, put on her slightly disheveled pajamas, opened the door and left her room, preparing to go to the bathroom to wash up and brush her teeth.
only……
As she passed the next room, the nameplate hanging on the door that read "Lorraine's Room" caught her attention.
Huh? ~
Why is there a stranger's name in her house? Isn't this an empty guest room?
Until this point.
Saya's mind finally cleared up a bit. That's right! She seemed to have experienced something terrible last night... and without her family's permission, she had secretly taken in a muscular man to live in her house, and he was even staying in the room next to hers!
Upon realizing this, Mizukami Sayo instantly felt her face burning with embarrassment for her incredibly bold behavior the previous night.
At this hour, is that guy still sleeping too?
She thought of the man sleeping in the room in front of her.
Water Goddess Xiaoye swallowed nervously.
I feel like it's already morning, so shouldn't I go and wake the other person up?
Haha...
It was really just out of politeness. She absolutely didn't have any dirty thoughts about peeping at a man while he was sleeping, or planning to do anything secretly while he was asleep... She had absolutely no such thoughts! She's telling the truth!
——
I knocked on the door.
Huh, there's no reaction at all.
"Um... Mr. Lorraine?"
No response.
"Lorraine, it's me, Xiaoye. It's morning already, are you up yet?"
Still no response.
"If you don't open the door soon, I'm coming in!"
Still no response.
Could it be that he died after waking up from a nap?
With a helpful attitude, Shuishen Xiaoye quietly opened the door in front of her and poked her head in halfway to see what was happening inside.
"Huh?"
However, to her surprise... the room was completely empty.
After opening the door and going inside.
She then discovered that the room was unbelievably clean and tidy. Even the blankets on the bed were folded into a terrifyingly square block. If you smelled carefully, you could also smell a faint, fresh fragrance in the room... the scent was so faint that it was hard to detect without careful attention.
But if you smell it for a while, it will give you a wonderful feeling of being refreshed and relaxed.
What happened?
She remembered that because the room had been uninhabited for a long time, it was covered in dust in many places, and there was a rather unpleasant rotten smell in the air.
How did I end up spending the night with a certain man?
The room looks like it's been blessed, completely transformed.
——
"Why isn't he in the room? Where did he go?"
If it weren't for the sign on the door that read "Lorraine's Room," she might have thought that everything last night was just a beautiful dream of a fantastic encounter.
After leaving the room.
Just as Mizuki Saya curiously searched for the living room, she heard sounds of activity coming from the courtyard not far away.
Is someone in the courtyard?
Filled with curiosity, the water goddess Sayo walked towards the courtyard and peeked inside.
She should have looked away; what she saw gave her a real shock.
At that moment, Lorraine was doing a lot of one-handed push-ups in the courtyard, with many fitness equipment placed on the ground next to her.
These things don't matter.
What truly stunned the Water Goddess Sayo, causing her to blush and steam from her hair, was... Lorraine's current attire, which she found difficult to look at directly.
He was shirtless, wearing only a pair of athletic shorts, and had a white towel around his neck to wipe away sweat.
The dazzling sunlight of dawn...
The sunlight shone directly onto his strong and handsome skin, and with the sweat clinging to his muscles, it made them shine and gleam.
It almost made the water god Xiaoye's nose bleed.
"Um?"
Lorraine also noticed the water goddess Xiaoye under the eaves, and immediately stopped exercising, stood up, laughed heartily, and greeted her, "Yo, Xiaoye, you're up, good morning."
"You, you, you... what a shameful outfit you're wearing!!!"
When the water goddess Xiaoye came to her senses, she immediately covered her face with her hands, her fingers spread apart, and shouted angrily and shyly.
"dress up?"
Lorraine glanced down at herself and chuckled, "Oh, I used to dress like this when I went to the gym. Nothing strange about it, right?"
"Get dressed properly!!!"
"I'm just worried that my clothes will get soaked with sweat and I'll feel uncomfortable."
"Don't you feel ashamed at all dressing up like this in a girl's home? Or are you saying... that all men are such shameless creatures?!"
