Aishia peered at Miharu’s face as though to confirm if she was really okay.
“Ah... umm. Then, can I ask you to wipe my sweat away?” Miharu felt the need to respond to Aishia’s sincerity and nodded in a slight fluster.
“Got it. Then, strip.” With a single nod, Aishia walked towards where Miharu was lying in the bed.
“O-Okay.” Miharu nervously stripped herself of her top.
“Show me your back.”
“Okay.” Miharu followed Aishia’s orders and turned her back around shyly. Immediately, a cool hand towel made contact with her back.
“Eek?!” Miharu flinched.
“Is it cold?” Aishia took the cloth away from her body, but Miharu shook her head with a strained laugh.
“I-It’s fine. I was just surprised at how sudden it was.”
“I’m going to continue, then.”
“Please do.”
Aishia started to wipe Miharu’s back once more with the wet cloth, but Miharu let out a ticklish sound.
“Mmh... ah.”
“You okay?” Aishia’s hand stopped once more.
“Got it.” Obeying Miharu’s request, Aishia resumed wiping Miharu’s back.
“Ngh...”
Aishia’s hand moved in a rather bold way, reaching straight for all the risky spots directly. Though her wiping speed had slowed, it actually made her feel more flustered, as it had steadily stimulated Miharu’s skin.
However, Miharu felt guilty for continuing to speak up, so she endured it. Then, another knock of the door echoed through the room, but Miharu was so focused on staying calm that she didn’t notice the sound.
Aishia, who heard the sound clearly, stood up instead.
“Huh? What’s wrong, Ai-chan?” The sudden halt of Aishia’s hand made Miharu look up in question.
“A knock. Haruto’s here,” Aishia informed her shortly, before striding over to the door to open it.
“...Huh? Huh?!”
Miharu raised her voice in confusion and looked over at the door. There stood a dumbfounded Rio, frozen with a tray of food he had made for her. Rio and Miharu both watched each other in a state of shock, their faces gradually reddening.
“I-I’m sorry!” they both apologized together. Miharu covered her body with her blanket in a panic. Rio also averted his eyes as fast as humanly possible, then retreated to the living room with rapid speed.
That night, after Miharu’s fever had completely gone down, her cheeks would redden every time she looked at Rio’s face, making Aki and Masato worry about her.
