Living in Tokyo, all I want to do is laze around.

What does "big H" mean?

"That's a complete pervert!"

“What?” Uesugi Kai turned to the side, propping his head up with his right hand to look at her small face, half of which was buried in the pillow. “Compared to me, this girl seems to have better stamina.”

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"...Okay, I won't say."

"Anyway, it's all Kai-kun's fault... you big pervert..."

“Haha,” Uesugi Kai said, resting his chin on his hand, smiling and nodding with narrowed eyes, “Okay, it was my fault.”

Hanabi Hanabi lowered the blanket covering her face, lifted her petite shoulders slightly, touched the pillow with her right hand, and looked at him: "Kai-kun..."

"What's wrong."

"Hanabi... has actually given Kai-kun everything she could."

Hanabi Hanabi gazed at her, her right index finger quietly sliding back and forth on the smooth fabric above the pillow.

Uesugi Kai's eyes met hers, which sparkled with a deep purple light. His gaze softened, and he said gently, "I know..."

Hanabi Hanamaru smiled faintly: "Actually, in a TV drama, this would be the end... after all, everyone has already seen all of the female lead."

"Hmm..." Uesugi Kai responded softly.

"Hanabi... has always firmly believed that she is alive, living by Kai-kun's side... Perhaps he sometimes hurts Hanabi... but Hanabi still loves him, because Hanabi has always believed what Kai-kun said to her, she has always believed..."

The girl spoke softly and gently, her small hand seemingly resting on Uesugi Kai's hand unintentionally, their touch intimate.

Hanabi Hanabi smiled at him, and then, as if mesmerized by her smile, Uesugi Kai fell silent.

He only felt the warmth, softness, and fragrance emanating from her small hands...

......

It was precisely because of her kindness to him that Uesugi Kai felt so guilty towards her.

"Kai-kun... don't think about unhappy things. We still have a long, long road ahead of us, don't we?"

Seeing the tenderness etched on her smiling face, Uesugi Kai's Adam's apple bobbed. He didn't know what he was feeling... moved? Guilt? Or perhaps gratitude for her constant smile...

Probably, all of them...

Everyone feels lonely, and Uesugi Kai felt like someone huddled by a fireplace for warmth on a cold, snowy night. Her gentleness and voice were like the soft flames inside, making him, who had just returned home and was frozen stiff in the snowy night, curl up and couldn't help but move closer to it.

"Haha..." Uesugi Kai suddenly laughed.

"Kai-kun...what are you laughing at?"

"I don't know, it's just that, haha, I suddenly felt like laughing."

"Suddenly want to laugh? Kai-kun... that's strange."

"Actually... there was a moment just now when I felt like I wanted to fall into your arms."

Upon hearing this, Hanabi Hanabi hugged herself tightly: "Kai-kun, what are you planning to do now?"

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not looking for the cat this time, I just want to snuggle in your arms and sleep."

After hearing his explanation, Hanabi Hanabi nodded: "Hanabi... can understand Kai-kun's thoughts too."

"Then let me sleep leaning against you?"

"Hanabi still wants to sleep next to Kai-kun."

"Then you can sleep leaning against me."

"No."

"Huh? Why did it suddenly stop working?"

"Because Hanabi hasn't completely forgiven Kai-kun yet, she's only forgiven him a little bit, just a little bit."

"What? I just saw that Hanabi seemed very happy and comfortable."

"That doesn't mean forgiveness!" Hanabi stammered anxiously, pulling the blanket over herself and burying her head under it like a rabbit.

"Fireworks...I..."

Hanabi Hanabi poked her head out again and whispered to him, "Just now Hanabi wanted Kai-kun to continue... Kai-kun couldn't, but now he can...?"

"Ahem, men always have intermittent periods, unlike you girls," Uesugi Kai continued, asking her, "Is that alright?"

Hanabi Hanabi pulled the blanket over her face and mumbled, "Whatever you want, Kai-kun."

"Hey, don't be so resistant, Hanabi. Where shall we go to play hide-and-seek this time?"

"..." Hanabi Hanabi did not answer.

"Go to the stairs or the living room?"

Kai Uesugi was suddenly kicked lightly by the girl's foot.

"I understand."

"But...but what if Mom hears us?"

"Heared? She heard it a long time ago. Don't worry about it. Your mother-in-law won't say anything."

"Really?"

"Don't you know your own mother?"

"Um...but...but..."

Uesugi Kai grabbed her small hand: "No buts, do you want me to hug you?"

"Um..."

Hanabi Hanamaru remained silent for a while, then nodded with her face down, and reached out to put her arm around his neck.

Kai Uesugi picked her up, blanket and all, and carried her out the door.

"Kai-kun..."

"Um...?"

"With Hanabi like this, Kai-kun won't dislike her, will he...?"

"What are you talking about? We are making progress for the continued existence of humanity in the world, which is something to be celebrated. Besides, we are husband and wife, who has the right to interfere?"

"Hmm..." Hanabi Hanamaru nodded again, her face flushed with embarrassment, which was considered as her agreement with his statement.

"One more thing!" Before the final step of preparing to find the cat, Hanabi Hanamaru lay on the living room sofa and turned her face away.

"What else?"

"Hanabi has not forgiven Kai-kun yet."

"I know."

......

......

"Ah~~"

As usual, around 8 o'clock.

Mrs. Hanamaru, a housewife, got out of bed. She first turned off the air conditioner, and then glanced at her one-year-old daughter, Hanamaru Hanayu, who was still sleeping by the bedside.

"They're only well-behaved when they're sleeping," Mrs. Hanamaru sighed. "Why aren't they as obedient as your older sister was when she was little?"

She put on her slippers, got out of bed in her pajamas, pushed open the door, and went into the living room.

"Ok?"

Mrs. Hanamaru suddenly noticed that the pillows on the living room sofa were arranged differently from when she slept the night before.

She clearly put the two sofa cushions on either side, so why are they on one side now?

Mrs. Hanamaru walked over, glanced at the scene, and immediately realized what was going on. She covered her forehead and said, "Oh dear, those two kids are really something. Not only do they not know how to control themselves, but they also forgot to tidy up."

She reached out and removed a damp cloth cushion from the sofa, then went back to the bathroom to get a mop to wipe away the water stains on the floor. After tidying up the coffee table, Mrs. Hanamaru, who had just looked up, suddenly frowned.

She noticed several small water droplets on the top of the television's LCD screen that had been there overnight.

Mrs. Hanamaru glanced at the positions of the two pillows on the sofa, then at the television directly opposite her.

That distance must be more than two meters.

Moreover, it should be fireworks.

"These two children," Mrs. Hanamaru sighed helplessly.

Should we say they're young and have good stamina? Since she really didn't know what to say, Mrs. Hanamaru gave up. She took a rag and went over to wipe the small water droplets off the TV as well.

Someone walked down the stairs.

Mrs. Hanamaru looked up and realized it was Hanamaru Hanabi, not Uesugi Kai.

"Where's Xiao Kai?"

"Kai-kun... is still sleeping." Hanabi rubbed her eyes and noticed her mother looking at her strangely. She suddenly felt guilty because of what happened last night. "W-what's wrong?"

Mrs. Hanamaru smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just think you look very healthy, Hanabi-chan."

"Very healthy?" Hanabi breathed a sigh of relief after learning that her mother seemed completely unaware of the situation, though her face was still a little red. "Mom...why are you suddenly bringing this up?"

"Because you were sick in Hokkaido a while ago... Sigh, have you been going for a morning run with Kai lately? I know he's been doing it every day."

No, no.

"Who has better physical strength between you two usually?"

"Then...then of course it's Kai-kun." Hanabi Hanamaru suddenly seemed a little afraid to look at her mother, her eyes darting around.

"Oh, so it's because Kaiko has better stamina."

"Mom...why did you suddenly bring this up...?" Hanamaru Hanabi suddenly felt that her mother's smile seemed to have seen through something, and she wanted to change the subject.

"It's nothing, I just think you're very healthy, Hanabi-chan."

"..."

Things seem to have come full circle.
