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

"No mischief allowed? To what extent is this 'no mischief allowed'?"

"Kai-kun is up to no good right now! Hanabi feels like Kai-kun is full of wicked ideas!"

The tram swayed slightly and even emitted the sound of its engine.

Uesugi Kai first took her small hand, and then slowly led her to his side.

Hanabi Hanabi glanced at him with shame and indignation, then lowered her eyes.

What should we do now?

"As you wish, Kai-kun..."

"How about we go to the car door first?"

"You bad guy!"

------

Uesugi Kai didn't know who the bad guy was. She arrived here at 1 p.m. and didn't check out until 6 p.m.

He felt his legs were unsteady.

If it weren't for his strong physique and consistent daily running training, Kai Uesugi definitely wouldn't have made it this far.

Hanabi Hanamaru, on the other hand, seemed completely unaffected, with nothing unusual about her except for her slightly flushed and tender face.

"Kai-kun... Hanabi said not to take Hanabi there..."

Hanabi Hanamaru's small voice revealed her concern.

But Uesugi Kai didn't feel good about it. He was the one who was exhausted, but Hanabi was still telling him not to take her there.

But just now! Clearly! It was Xiaohuahu who was the one taking the initiative!

But it's okay, what can't be forgiven for Xiaohuabi?

And since it was my own suggestion to go, I guess I'll just consider this a lesson learned...

Also, Hanabi's health has been really good lately; Uesugi Kai feels like he can't keep up.

"Kai-kun".

"Huh?" Uesugi Kai responded weakly.

"Kai-kun, why are you suddenly so listless?"

"Little Firework, you need to understand, this is what happens to men who hand over their grain."

"Oh... Hanabi thought Kai-kun wasn't very happy." Hanamaru Hanabi recalled how he fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow that night.

Bad Kai-kun...

"I'm so happy, really happy, but my body can't take it."

Uesugi Kai forced a smile, not to mention that if his mother-in-law knew that his face was even smaller than Hanabi's, she would look at him with a strange expression.

But... he really had no choice.

He trained every day, every single day, but he still couldn't withstand Xiao Huahuo's fierceness.

Why?

Exhausted, Uesugi Kai suddenly realized something. According to the situation, even if Hanabi was the woman, she should not be stronger than him. So why was it that the frail Hanabi would have sex every half hour or hour without the feeling of her body fading away?

"Hanabi, have you gotten any better lately?"

"Kai-kun...which aspect are you referring to?"

"constitution."

"It's normal for my physical condition to have improved since I've been dancing a lot lately."

"But, isn't that a bit too much... Forget it, let's not dwell on this. Should we walk around outside alone for a while, or go home?"

Hanabi Hanamaru blushed, clenching her thighs together and muttering a curse at him:

"So Kai-kun is the bad guy. In this situation, and... and nothing's been done, how are we supposed to go for a walk?!"

"Oh~" Uesugi Kai suddenly remembered, "Right, right, I was confused."

"Besides, Kai-kun never wears it... I don't want a baby now, what should I do if I get pregnant?"

"She'll give birth, but the chances of Hanabi getting pregnant are almost zero."

"W-Why? Kai-kun went for a checkup, and it's not Kai-kun's problem. It should be Hanabi's problem... Hanabi... can't get pregnant anymore?" Hanabi's voice became more and more heartbreaking as she spoke.

Uesugi Kai realized that she had misunderstood, and quickly said, "No, no, Hanabi, you're perfectly fine too. Hanabi, have you forgotten that you were also examined at the hospital that day?"

"It seems...that's how it is?" Hanabi Hanamaru wasn't sure at all.

"Believe me."

Kai Uesugi's firm belief in me stopped Hanabi Hanamaru from pressing the matter further.

It was indeed a bit strange, but Hanamaru Hanabi was willing to believe him, just as she had never asked him why he had turned into a cat.

Also, ever since Uesugi Kai turned her into a cat to cause trouble, she has never let him turn her back.

Of course, Hanamaru Hanabi wasn't without her aftereffects after leaving the love hotel.

Her aftereffect is that she gets shy whenever she sees a tram, thinking about elements like handrails, glass, and seats, and then immediately associating them with unpleasant images, which makes her feel embarrassed and blush.

Kai Uesugi fully understood, because his impression of it was also quite profound.

"Hanabi."

"Ok?"

"How about we try having a baby?"

"Why did Kai-kun suddenly bring this up?"

"No, no... I can't really explain it, I just suddenly felt like I wanted to... well, actually I don't really want to, I'm just conflicted."

"That means Kai-kun hasn't thought it through yet. It's not fair to the baby if the family isn't ready." Hanabi Hanamaru stroked her little belly.

Her movements were so gentle that she seemed like a mother trying to conceive.

Kai Uesugi said with concern, "Hanabi will definitely have a very hard time getting pregnant. If possible, I would like to share some of the burden with you."

“Kai-kun, every husband thinks this way about his wife. But Hanabi would definitely want to give birth to the baby herself.”

"Because of maternal love?"

"Kai-kun...Hanabi isn't pregnant yet, what are you talking about maternal love for?"

"Haha, maternal love doesn't necessarily only develop after pregnancy; it's an instinct even before pregnancy."

"Does Kai-kun think fireworks are possible?"

"Yes, absolutely. I can feel it as I lie on your lap as a pillow."

"Kai-kun, you've been wanting a lap pillow, haven't you?"

"If you want it, can I have the fireworks?"

"No, we decided beforehand that we can't just keep giving in to Kai's demands."

"Cannot be satisfied with everything" means that she would agree as soon as you coax her a little, right?

Ah, little fireworks are so nice.

Even when they're angry, they're still so cute, and they're always thinking of themselves.

She is clearly such a beautiful girl.

Kai Uesugi looked out of the train window, watching the light snowflakes falling from the gradually darkening sky.

"Christmas is almost over, it feels like I didn't do anything."

"Kai-kun... has Hanabi by his side."

"Yeah, hahaha! Hanabi is so good to me, really, I'm completely satisfied." Uesugi Kai suddenly had an urge to hug her, but because they were on a train, he felt a little awkward.

Sigh, I'll hug him slowly when we get home.

I still didn't get enough of hugging her just now.

That feeling of being gently embraced through body heat is truly unforgettable.

Just as Uesugi Kai was lost in memories, Hanamaru Hanabi's phone suddenly received a text message from her younger sister, Hanamaru Yuuki.

[Sister! Hold brother-in-law back! We still have a little time to prepare!]

Hanabi Hanamaru glanced furtively at Kai Uesugi, who was looking out at the snowy scene, before typing a reply on her phone:

【clear.】

"Kai-kun~"

Kai Uesugi thought for a moment and recognized the long-lost coquettishness in Hanabi Hanamaru's words. Feeling a surge of affection, he smiled.

"What's wrong? Why are you suddenly calling me like that?"

Hanabi's face was as pink as cherry blossoms. She said, "It must have been more than five hours... Hanabi is a little weak, so I wanted... Kai-kun to get off the train and buy Hanabi some delicious takoyaki."

"Takoyaki? I don't think there are any around here."

"Yes, absolutely! Kai-kun, let's get off at the next stop. Hanabi wants to eat takoyaki."

Want some takoyaki?

That was a bit abrupt.

But Kai Uesugi is not the kind of person to refuse his wife. She said she would become the next stop herself, without any hesitation.

Holding Hanabi's little hand, they walked two streets and came across a takoyaki shop. Uesugi Kai told her to wait where she was while he went to queue up to buy some.

"Is the takoyaki delicious?"

"It's delicious~ Hanabi wants to sit here, look at the snow on the street, and then leave."

"Look at the snow on the street..." Uesugi Kai was a little speechless. Was it because the magnificent view from the Skytree earlier hadn't pleased Hanabi? So much so that she wanted to see the snow on the street twice?

"Kai-kun~"

"Why are you being so cutesy again?" Uesugi Kai said with a hint of disdain, but inwardly he was overjoyed.
