It was unclear how much time had passed before Fumika Ogawa, c her face, fled from Shuichi Chiba's bedroom. As soon as she reached downstairs, she bumped right into her younger sister.

  "S-Sayuki?"

  "What's the rush? Your face is so red. What exactly were you doing upstairs?" Sayuki Ogawa teased with a knowing smile.

  "N-nothing really..." Fumika tried to deny it, but her attempt at lying was so obvious that no one would believe her.

  "Are those marks on your neck mosquito bites, then?" Sayuki rolled her eyes.

  Fumika quickly covered her neck, having pletely fotten about that. Realizing she couldn't hide it any longer, she finally admitted in a small voice, "I was just giving Chiba-kun a shoulder massage..."

  "You were massaging his shoulders, a your neck is covered in hickeys?" Sayuki crossed her arms and leaned in closer to examine her.

  Avoiding her sister's gaze, Fumika stammered, "And... helped Chiba-kun a little with something else..."

  She didn’t dare mention what came after, only vaguely expining the principle and general process of the "kissing therapy," which at least satisfied her sister's curiosity and helped keep the rest a secret.

  Even so, Sayuki was left in disbelief, exg, "That guy really knows how to e up with excuses! This is the first time I've heard of such a creative reason for kissing."

  "W-Well... it's irely an excuse. I think it kind of makes sense." Fumika couldn’t help but defend Shuichi a bit.

  Sayuki, unimpressed, retorted, "You're still defending him? If it weren’t for your period today, you probably would have been pletely devoured by nht? You might end up on his bed today."

  "..." Fumika, embarrassed, didn’t bring up what they had pnned for Sunday. Instead, she awkwardly asked, "Sayuki, could you help me buy a new pair of stogs?"

  "Hm?" Sayuki gave her sister's legs a curious look. "They seem fio me, no tears. Why do you need new ones? Pnning to offer Chiba-kun some fresher 'side dishes'?"

  "Stop saying weird things!" Fumika hurriedly replied, and theantly added, "And... could you also buy me a new pair of underwear?"

  This time was worse thaerday, and there was no way she could make it back like this. Her underwear was pletely drenched by her juice which her pussy released during kissing and giving Chiba a blowjob. Eveogs were wet from it. It was the reason why she ran away from Chiba's room.

  Sayuki immediately uood, her face lighting up with a mischievous smile. "Got it. Just wait here for a bit. You definitely o ge—'t go all the way home like that."

  The two sisters were still living in their inal pce, but during the day, they spent their time overseeing the renovatiress in the shopping district, staying in stant unication with designers and other workers.

  Sayuki Ogawa went out aloo a nearby supermarket. While she was browsing for stogs and underwear, she suddenly received a message from Shuichi Chiba.

  [Sayuki-san, did you pn this?]

  Seeing this, a pleased smile spread across Sayuki's face as she typed a reply.

  [Feeling unfortable now, aren't you?]

  [If I said yes, would Sayuki-san be happy?]

  [Yes.]

  [Although I don’t know why Sayuki-san wants to see me in disfort, if it makes you happy, then I’m feeling very unfortable right now.] Shuichi Chiba, feeling rexed and tent, casually replied as he leaned back against the headboard.

  Sayuki Ogawa, not knowily what he and her sister had doogether in the bedroom and thinking he was genuinely unfortable, smiled but couldn’t help but snark,

  [You’re such a smooth talker.]

  [Without knowing, you ’t make clusions. If anyone should ent oher I’m smooth or not, Fumika-san has the right to speak up.]

  [Little pervert.]

  [Want to see my legs?]

  [???]

  [Since Sayuki-san said it, wouldn’t it be rude if I didn’t act a little eager?]

  Sayuki narrowed her eyes.

  [You sure have a big appetite. You’re sedug my sister while flirting with me on the side. Aren’t you afraid I’ll tell her?]

  [Not at all. I’m just following Sayuki-san’s lead here. I wouldn’t mind if Fumika-san saw these chat logs either. Besides, all I said was to look at ys, but someone’s eyes this m were fixed on something much more... signifit.]

  Sayuki ched her teeth, realizing how difficult it was to get the upper hand with him.

  [You're such a clever devil with a sharp tongue.]

  [Indeed, devil, but with a big….. You’ve already checked the first part, but the tter is incorrect.]

  Irritated, Sayuki replied, [Do you even know where I am right now?]

  [?]

  [I’m at the supermarket, buyiogs and underwear for my sister. Fresh "side dishes" for you to enjoy ter. They’re still warm. Want to try them out? Maybe it’ll make you feel better.]

  [Sayuki-sao care an awful lot about whether I’ll enjoy those “side dishes.” Do you often imagine ses like that in your head? Could it be that you’re secretly a pervert?]

  Sayuki’s chest rose and fell in frustration, [Hmph, I’m mad now. Fet about tonight’s side dishes.]

  [I’m sorry, I’ll make it up to you tonight. I’ll definitely savor them, and I’ll even send you a video for verification.]

  [There’s no need for a video, but I might sider accepting a photo.]

  [Are y to bckmail me? There’s o gh such trouble. If you wao do something, just ask.]

  [Then send me a photo.]

  [Let’s trade pictures then. Want to show me ys?]

  Sayuki narrowed her eyes again. After all, it wasn’t a big deal—she often wore clothes that showed her legs, and Chiba had seen them plenty of times before.

  So, she lowered her phoook a photo of her toned, fair legs, a it over.

  [I’m going to use this photo tonight. 'Thumbs up emoji']

  Sayuki’s eyes widened in disbelief. She had been tricked. This sly little brat.

  [You really are desperate if you’re satisfied with just one photo.]

  [But this is 'your' photo, Sayuki-san. It’s the first time I’ve gotten one. I’d be happy to die if these legs ed around me.]

  [......]

  [Just kidding, of course I wouldn’t do anything like that. Don’t fet about those fresh side dishes tonight. I’ll be looking forward to it.]

  Sayuki Ogaursed her lips, and her emotions suddenly became a bit more plicated.

  "Does he really still prefer my sister's legs?"

  She gnced down at her own legs, which she had always been proud of and worked hard to maintain through regur exercise. Now, she felt as though they had somehow lost out to her sister’s.

  People often said that overtraining tends to attract attention from the same gender. Was she overdoing it? Sayuki absentmindedly touched her toned abs, pting her fitness routine.

  Oher side, Shuichi Chiba, having outpyed Sayuki in their little exge, felt much more at ease. Bored, he opehe system to check things out and quickly found himself lost in thought.

  [Fumika Ogawa's sense of belonging +10, Administrator sary +100,000 yen.]

  [Sayuki Ogawa's sense of belonging +10, Administrator sary +100,000 yen.]

  He wasn’t surprised that Fumika's sense of belonging had increased, but Sayuki’s? What oh had caused her to feel more attached?
