After lavishing affection on Subordinate for a while, the female master, entering a moment of reflection, invited them into her hermitage.
“It’s gotten late today, and since Boss has had some sake, you should stay over.”
Both readily accepted the female master’s offer and were led to a Japanese-style room. The room, centered around an irori (traditional Japanese hearth), excited all who entered.
“It’s always nice to come here.”
The subordinate nodded in agreement with Boss’s comment. “Wait here for a moment,” said the female master, leaving them by the irori.
Listening to the crackling of the irori and feeling its warmth, even Subordinate, who would usually seize any opportunity to tease Boss, sat quietly.
“This is nice,” Subordinate thought, glancing at Boss sitting beside her. The boss noticed her gaze, smiled, and casually commented about the warmth.
Subordinate felt a stir of emotion but didn’t want to ruin the mood, leaning against Boss.
“What’s up?” The boss asked, stroking Subordinate’s hair. Subordinate closed her eyes, enjoying the touch.
“I’m just tired from everything today.”
The subordinate then shifted her head to enjoy lying in Boss’s lap. That’s when the female master appeared.
“Oh my, you two seem very cozy.”
Laughing, the female master approached as Subordinate, with a murmur, hugged Boss’s neck and sat up.
“Dinner’s ready.”
The female master laid dishes before them, emitting an indescribably delicious aroma.
Subordinate’s stomach growled audibly. She picked up her chopsticks with a slightly embarrassed look and said, “Let’s eat.”
“Let’s eat,” echoed Boss, starting with the miso soup. The rich broth and perfect salinity seeped into his weary body.
Meanwhile, the Subordinate bit into a grilled ayu (sweetfish). The flesh was refreshing and packed with flavor.
Savoring the deliciousness, Subordinate hugged herself, fully enjoying the taste. Then, Boss approached with a mischievous smile, squeezing lemon over Subordinate’s ayu.
The sudden act brought out a wicked smile from Subordinate as well.
“Oh my,” she said, biting into the lemon-drenched ayu. Tears rose in her eyes from the exquisite harmony of the lemon’s acidity and the fresh fish.
It was beyond criticism. Moved, Subordinate was filled with emotion.
“I’m glad you both enjoyed it,” said the female master, smiling warmly at their hearty eating. She mentioned that all the ingredients were sourced from the mountain, taking a bite of her mixed rice.
Their conversation flowed as they enjoyed the delicious meal, and the night deepened smoothly.

After enjoying the delicious meal prepared by the female master, the conversation flowed, and the night deepened smoothly.
Feeling full, the two spent some time lying by the hearth, basking in the ultimate luxury. Then, good news arrived.
“The bath is ready~.”
At the female master’s call, they both responded affirmatively. After a pause, Subordinate asked if they should bathe together. Boss, feeling relaxed, suggested bathing alone today.
Subordinate, though slightly disappointed, resignedly lay back down by the hearth.
Excited, Boss made his way to the bathhouse. Upon opening the door, he was greeted by a simple yet comforting space that exuded the warmth of wood.
First, he poured hot water over himself, enjoying the refreshing sensation after the heat.
Then, Boss soaked in the bath, a luxury that soothed his usual fatigue and felt like a small, everyday indulgence. He couldn’t help but sigh in contentment.
While Boss hummed to himself in the bath, hurried footsteps approached from the corridor.
Without hesitation, Subordinate burst into the bathhouse.
“I can’t wait any longer. I’m joining you.”
Saying so, Subordinate boldly made her way into the bathtub already occupied by Boss.
“Hey, it’s going to be crowded.”
Feeling Subordinate’s soft touch, Boss made space for her to fit snugly against him, then gently stroked her head.
Subordinate sighed contentedly, squinting her eyes in pleasure.
As Boss attempted to stop, Subordinate caught his hand.
“Don’t stop.”
Insisting, the Subordinate guided Boss’s hand back to her head. Despite his reluctance, Boss continued to pet her.
“Have you gotten tired of petting me?”
Subordinate asked with puppy eyes. Boss laughed softly, then hugged her.
“I never said that.”
Whispering in her ear, Subordinate’s cheeks flushed slightly.
“I still can’t believe it.”
With a mischievous smile, Subordinate looked up at Boss.
“Then, do something even more amazing than petting.”
Boss struggled to restrain himself, remembering they were in the female master’s home, albeit temporarily.
While it was questionable enough to share a bath in someone else’s house, crossing further lines was something even Boss hesitated to do.
But… Subordinate’s kiss silenced the boss’s words.
Surprised but accepting, Boss embraced the sudden intimacy. Just as they were about to deepen their connection.
“The female master is here too. I’ve brought some sake… “
Opening a small window above the bathtub connected to the house’s interior, the female master peeked in.
What she saw was a man and a woman entwined in her home. Yet, she left the sake without losing her smile, saying, “Take your time~,” before retreating.
Blushing, the two ended up washing each other’s backs in silence.
