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

"Kai-kun... does Kai-kun really like touching Hanabi's belly?" The weak voice did not directly answer his question.

"I really like it. It's soft and comfortable. I want to keep touching it."

"Um..."

"Hanabi agreed?"

"As long as... as long as Kai-kun wants it..." She spoke in a barely audible voice, seemingly shy about the topic.

"Where's your chest?" Uesugi Kai asked mischievously.

Hanabi Hanamaru, who was already looking down, naturally focused her attention on the area below the red ribbon.

There... hidden by a white shirt, imagining the feeling of being gently caressed, she suddenly closed her eyes.

After hesitating for a long time, he stammered:

"That...that's also possible..."

"Really?"

"real......"

“Well…” Uesugi Kai deliberately dragged out the last syllable.

Hanabi Hanamaru suddenly stretched out her panicked little hand, turned her head away, closed her eyes tightly, and said, "No...don't bully Hanabi, Daddy will hit Kai-kun."

Why is he so cute?

Kai Uesugi smiled, took her hands, and pressed them close to her flushed earlobe: "Uncle won't know."

"Dad has a gun..."

"Uncle won't know."

"Dad is amazing, he caught a lot of bad guys..."

"Uncle won't know."

"Dad, he..."

Hanabi stammered for a long time, unable to think of anything to say, and could only plead pitifully, "Hanabi will make bento for Kai-kun... Kai-kun... Kai-kun, please, please don't bully Hanabi..."

"not enough."

"Hanabi can earn money by drawing, and cook delicious food for Kai-kun every day..." Hanamaru Hanabi thought about it carefully and seriously.

"Not enough."

"Hanabi will listen to Kai-kun. If Kai-kun is not feeling well, Hanabi will stay by his side and keep him company..."

"It's still not enough."

Hanabi Hanabi was so nervous her heart was pounding, her little brain practically short-circuiting: "Hanabi, Hanabi... Hanabi can't think of anything..."

She quickly pleaded, "But Kai-kun, please don't bully Hanabi, okay? Hanabi cries easily..."

Her weak voice sounded like she was really about to cry.

Kai Uesugi couldn't help but chuckle, hugging her slender waist through her thin clothing: "Just kidding, can't Hanabi tell?"

Feeling the close embrace of her chest, Hanabi, who was like a startled little rabbit, felt a little relieved, but she was still bothered by what had just been said:

"So... will Kai-kun still touch fireworks...?"

"meeting."

Following her slender waist, he wrapped his right arm around her and touched her flat, soft abdomen.

She only felt a ticklish sensation where she was touched. "Then... Kai-kun, please be gentle..."

"It will be very light."

"Um......"

Sitting on a park bench, feeling the sunlight filtering through the green leaves and falling on her face, Hana Maru leaned against him, lazily closing her dreamy eyes.

An elderly woman walking her Shiba Inu saw two figures leaning against each other on a bench ahead, shook her head, smiled faintly, and then silently turned and left with her dog.

Chapter 88 Is this considered a date?

I gently inhaled her sweet fragrance, and no matter how long it took, the flutter in my heart was like cherry blossoms in spring, blooming generously in my chest.

"Hanabi."

Hearing his voice, Hanabi Hanamaru, who had her eyes closed, finally realized the distance between them.

So close.

My waist was tickled from being touched.

She frantically escaped from his chest, quickly hiding her small hands between her legs. Her cheeks were flushed, and her heart was racing. At the same time, she secretly looked around in panic to see if anyone was watching her.

It seems...no...

"Kai-kun..." the girl called his name in a weak voice.

"Does Hanabi think this counts as a date?" Uesugi Kai smiled, thinking that her reaction was normal.

He didn't go forward to embrace her, even though the feeling of holding her slender waist would have filled him with wonderful emotions.

"Hanabi... I... I don't know..." Hanamaru Hanabi's cheeks were burning, and her little brain, which had been burned, had no idea how to answer the question.

"Are you hungry?" Seeing that she looked like she was about to burst, Uesugi Kai immediately changed the subject.

"A little..."

What would you like to eat?

Hanabi Hanamaru hesitated for a moment; she knew he couldn't handle spicy food very well.

"Eel rice".

"Don't you want to eat spicy food?" Uesugi Kai asked, slightly surprised.

I don't want to... today.

Kai Uesugi kept gazing at her shyly bowing her head, feeling that she was a shining treasure all over, his gaze deeply attracted by that feeling, unable to look away even a fraction.

He stood up.

"Let's go. I know a really good restaurant that serves eel."

Hanabi Hanabi glanced furtively at Kai Uesugi, who had stood up beside her, but instead of responding directly, she reached out and grabbed the hem of his shirt.

"what happened?"

"...Hanabi...can't stand up..." Hanabi was very embarrassed and deliberately whispered to avoid the question.

The sunlight dappled through the leaves on the girl's cheeks, and the sunlight swayed gently in the breeze.

He knew what was going on.

"Is it too comfortable?"

Uesugi Kai means "to lean against someone's chest".

Hanabi Hanabi paused, then whispered, "Kai-kun...it tickled when I touched you just now..."

He touched his waist, but there was nothing strange about it.

Kai Uesugi sat down again, leaning close to her soft body, and said with a smile, "Want me to hug you?"

Hug...hug...hug...hug...

Hanabi Hanamaru kept repeating the word he had said in her mind, and after a long silence, she suddenly shook her head and said, "No...don't hug me."

why,

Why are you so adorable whether you agree or refuse?

Suppressing the urge to hug her in public, Uesugi Kai calmed himself down and said:

"Alright, I'll stay and rest with Hanabi for a bit, then we'll go eat eel rice later."

"Okay," Hanabi Hanabi replied softly.

------

A grilled eel restaurant was the second location of Uesugi Kai's first date.

His first time was just now at Shinjuku Central Park.

Kabayaki is a dish that is grilled with a unique sauce, primarily soy sauce with a hint of sweetness.

On the grill, the delicious eel is gradually taking shape under the skillful hands of the shop owner.

The rich broth flows over the boneless, crispy eel, which is grilled to a golden brown. The dripping oil sizzles on the red-hot charcoal, and the wonderful aroma fills the air.

Just one sniff, and your mouth will involuntarily fall in love with the smell.

Hanabi Hanabi stared blankly at the eel enveloped in aroma, sitting obediently on the round stool, waiting.

The shop manager, wearing a white headscarf, really liked this expression, because it was a great honor for his little shop.

What's more, she's such a beautiful and quiet girl.

He wanted to better showcase his grilled eel skills honed over many years.

The crust is slightly charred, oozing hot oil, and the sauce, repeatedly applied, sizzles and pops.

This incredibly fragrant sauce convinced Kai Uesugi that it was the foundation of this eel restaurant.

Furthermore, the store manager has excellent skill control, which can be seen from his nimble movements.

The moment the eel released its perfect caramelized aroma, he lifted the spatula and placed the golden-brown eel on top of the soft, sticky white rice.

The rich, fragrant sauce slowly seeped through the tender gaps in the eel.

The white rice was drizzled with a beautiful color.

At this moment, the luster of the eel, the brilliance of the sauce, and the overflowing rice all complement each other within the black rectangular lacquerware.

Two bowls of "eel soup" arranged in the order of "fish-rice-fish" appeared in front of the two.

Hanabi Hanamaru's eyes reflected nothing but the magnificent eel rice.
