Living Normally In An Abnormal World - Chapter 16: Hot Spring Trip

Chapter 16: Hot Spring Trip

Today, as I mentioned before, we’re going on the one-night, two-day hot spring trip that Mana won in the shopping district lottery.

And this time, I’m going without cross-dressing for the first time.

Apparently, there’s a family-only open-air bath at the inn, but it’s better to mention that there will be a man coming if we were to visit.

If a man shows up without anyone knowing and causes trouble, it could be a big problem.

Moreover, it seems that it just opened the other day. In that case, it’s even more important to contact them. And apparently, the most necessary item while doing so is a swimsuit. Mana told me to wear one, so I will.

By the way, in this world, men not only wear skirts but also have to wear bras. It’s reversed, but if it were my previous life, it would only be a punishment game. Especially when I found out that there were men’s bikinis, I was terrified from the bottom of my heart.

Even I can’t accept a bikini, though I can tolerate a skirt. So I chose a sports bra and pants.

Women also wear bras, but only those with large breasts; slender people don’t seem to wear them.

—

……I’m not disappointed or anything. It’s not like I wanted to see a bare busty older sister’s chest or anything.

—

It takes about two hours by car. Yuuna was so excited that she couldn’t sleep last night, and now she’s sleeping soundly in the car.

Ah, she’s drooling, how cute.

—

And we’ve arrived.

“This is the first time we’ve gone out without cross-dressing, isn’t it?”

“I wore a wig even when I went to school. But please wear a hat, just in case.”

Mana said and put a hat on my head.

“Okay.”

Now that I think about it, is it really cross-dressing just to wear a wig? Well, since it didn’t cause any problems, I won’t think too deeply about it.

“Yuuna, we’ve arrived.”

I wake Yuuna up by poking her cheek with my finger.

“U~n, Nii-cha, carry me~”

Yuuna acts spoiled when she wakes up and tries to find me with her hands. She’s so cute I can’t stand it.

“Okay.”

I carry Yuuna on my back and head towards the inn.

—

“Welcome. Is this Kinoshita-sama, who contacted us last week?”

“Yes.”

Mana is talking to the receptionist. But her voice is soft, and I can barely hear her next to me.

“And according to your contact, you’re bringing a man, right? Is that your child?”

“Yes, that’s right. But just in case something happens…”

“Don’t worry. We just opened today, so we won’t do anything to ruin our business.”

“Thank you.”

“Just in case, could you have your son sign here?”

“Yuu-kun.”

“Yo.”

I write my name where the receptionist is pointing. And when I’m done,

“Please take good care of us for the next two days.”

I bow and greet with a smile. Not only are we staying here, but it’s also clear that I’ll cause some trouble, so I have to act sincerely.

“……Well, here are your room keys.”

“Thank you.”

Mana takes the keys and we head to our room.

“The pen that child used…… it’ll last for five days, right?”

……Let’s pretend I didn’t hear that.

—

When I think of a hot spring inn, I imagine a traditional Japanese-style building. The tatami mats have a rough texture, and the shoji screens have holes in them, probably made by some stupid lord.

I feel like making some holes too. ……But it’s just a thought, so it’s not a problem.

I put down the luggage in the corner of the room and put Yuuna down.

“Nii-cha, carry me more~”

Yuuna pouts, but I say,

“Nii-cha wants to lie down on the tatami.”

So I lie down.

“Then I’ll lie next to Nii-cha~”

Mana also lies down next to me. Haha, it’s two against one. Now what will Yuuna do?

“Nii-cha, your body is wide open!”

Yuuna pounces on me with her hands outstretched and says, “Too!”

“Gufu!”

It hurts, but she’s so cute that I forgive her.

“I’ll lie on top of Nii-cha~”

“Okay, but just for a little while.”

“Yes!”

“Okay, let’s sleep now~”

“Hehehe, good night.”

“Suya~”

For now, it’s 3 o’clock…should I set the alarm for 6 o’clock?

—

I woke up. It’s exactly 6 o’clock. Well then,

“Let’s take a bath!”

“Yeah!”

Even though they just woke up, they’re already full of energy.

We head to the changing room, and I put on my swimsuit while Yuuna and Mana undress.

“Nii-cha, it suits you!” 

“Yuu-kun, it looks good on you!”

“Thank you, thank you.”

Sorry, I feel a bit complicated. Is it because I didn’t choose the swimsuit myself? Should I pay more attention to fashion? Well, it doesn’t matter.

Also, I try not to look at Yuuna and Mana’s naked bodies too much. Even though our chastity concepts are reversed, I shouldn’t take advantage of their nakedness as a man.

I open the door first.

Outside, there’s fresh air, a lush green view, and the sound of the hot spring flowing. This is truly a hot spring.

“Yay!”

Yusna immediately tries to get into the hot spring, but I stop her.

“Wait, Yuuna!”

I’m a bath lover, so I want everyone to follow the proper manners when it comes to hot springs.

“What’s wrong, Nii-cha?”

“It’s ridiculous to try to enter a hot spring without knowing the manners! I’ll personally teach you the manners!”

“Yuuna, I’ll teach you too~”

Mana teaches Yuuna manners…I should teach her something stupid.

“First, let’s wash our bodies and hair.”

“Yuu-kun, you’re in the middle.”

“I’ll wash your back, and you wash mine, I understand.”

Yuuna is on my left, I’m in the middle, and Mana is on my right.

“Then, Nii-cha, wash my hair first!”

“I’ll wash Yuu-kun’s hair.”

“Mama?”

“After you’re done, Yuu-kun will wash mine, okay?”

“Okay.”

I wash Yuuna’s hair. Meanwhile, Mana washes my hair. It feels so good that I can’t help but narrow my eyes.

Then I gently wash Yuuna’s hair too. Her beautiful black hair, just like Mana’s, deserves to be treated with care. And Yuuna is so cute that she’ll surely grow up to be a beautiful woman like Mana.

“U~n♪”

Yuuna lets out a happy voice. I can tell that the strength is just right.

“Yuu-kun, does it hurt?”

“No, it’s fine.”

Now I wash Mana’s hair and Yuuna washes mine.

“It feels good, Yuu-kun.”

“I see…then I’ll keep the same strength.”

“Ni-cha, what about me?”

“Yeah, it’s fine, it feels good.”

Then we wash our bodies. First, we wash ourselves, and then, just like in old manga,

“Right, face right!”

Everyone faces right at my command, and Yuuna washes my back while I wash Mana’s.

“Left, face left!”

Everyone faces left at Yuuna’s command. Now I wash Yuuna’s back while Mana washes mine .

“Okay, now right again!”

Everyone faces right at Mana’s command.

We repeat this a few times, and then,

“Let’s get into the hot spring!”

“Yeah!”

Our family is so easygoing, it’s a big help.

“Don’t put towels in the hot spring, and don’t swim.”

“Yes!”

“Let’s go in.”

“Fufu…I’m looking forward to it.”

We get into the hot spring. I sit cross-legged, leaning against the wall. Yuuna sits on top of me and leans against me, and Mana sits next to me.

“Ahhhh~~~”

We all let out voices of comfort. And I rest my head on Mana’s shoulder.

“What’s wrong, Yuu-kun?”

“Just let me stay like this for a while.”

“Okay.”

Mana also rests her head on top of mine.

“Hot springs are nice.”

“Yeah.”

“Ehehe~ It feels so good~”

—

We enjoyed the hot spring for a while.

—

After getting out of the hot spring, we

“Ahhhh~~~”

Drink a post-bath drink.

Yuuna – Fruit milk

Me – Coffee milk

Mana – Beer

“This drink is so satisfying!”

Mana is a working adult, so she must have some stress from work. Let’s make the most of this holiday and have some fun.

“Next is dinner, right?”

“Yeah, I’m looking forward to it.”

“Crab! Crab!”

“There won’t be any crabs.”

“Eh~!?”

“Instead, there will be sea urchin.”

“Yay!”

“Fufu…let’s go back.”

—

And so we enjoyed the hot spring inn.

—

Then, in the middle of the night,

“Nii-cha, Nii-cha.”

Yuuna shook me awake. She seemed to be in a hurry. Did a ghost appear or something?

“……What’s wrong?”

“I need to pee.”

“Ah, I understand.”

I rub my sleepy eyes and hold Yuuna’s hand as we head to the bathroom. It’s scary in the dark for me too, so I can’t help it.

“Nii-cha, are you there~?”

“I’m here~”

I’m really sleepy, but I’ll endure it for my sister.

Yuuna comes out of the bathroom.

“Are you okay?”

“Yes, thank you!”

We go back to our futons and lie down. As usual, Yuuna buries her face in my chest.

“Yuuna.”

“What?”

“You can call me ‘Otou-cha’ if you want.”

“No, I like Nii-cha.”

“And call me ‘Oyaji’ in the future.”

“Absolutely not.”

I don’t understand.
