=========================================

"Okay."

"No peeking."

"I'd like to, but unfortunately, the bathroom is locked."

Badr replied calmly, his mind involuntarily recalling the image of the girl sitting in the bathtub when he was summoned. The details were etched in his memory, clear as day...

Ahem, blame it on having a good memory.

Sakurajima Mai didn't respond to Badr's blatant desires. Instead, she silently pointed towards the door, signalling him to leave.

"Staying outside now would make me look like a thief."

"Just tell them you're not a thief but a pervert instead."

Sakurajima Mai's retort hit Badr right in the heart.

"Then I'd still get arrested by the police." Badr smiled. "If you insult me, I'll join you in the bath."

"Hmph."

Sakurajima Mai immediately retreated into the bathroom, locking the door with a loud click.

...This girl is adorable.

Badr thought to himself as he pulled out his phone to search for information about Sakurajima Mai. As expected, there was nothing about her on the search engine. Instead, he found a bunch of irrelevant results about other celebrities.

What kind of useless search engine is this? I'm a respectable person... uh, a respectable devil.

Unwilling to give up, he searched again but still found nothing. Meanwhile, the sound of running water from the bathroom soon stopped.

With a click, the bathroom door unlocked, and Mai peeked her head out, wrapped in a towel. Her snow-white shoulders, still wet with water droplets, glistened with a healthy pink hue.

"You didn't do anything weird, did you?"

Mai asked with a highly suspicious tone.

"Weird? Like what?"

"Weird is weird!" Mai stammered, her question making her feel embarrassed.

Badr rolled his eyes.

"Did you come out dressed like that just to ask me this?"

"...No, what about my underwear?"

"Hmm?"

"I can go without changing clothes, but not socks and underwear."

Sakurajima Mai looked troubled.

Badr tilted his head in thought. "I could wash them for you and then dry them?"

"You might as well just die now."

"Wow, so heartless." Badr remained calm. "So, you're not wearing anything now?"

"I'm wrapped in a towel!"

"Oh, that sounds nice too."

"...?? Stop thinking about perverted things."

Annoyed by Badr's teasing, Mai wrapped the towel around her hair at his face. It smelled strongly of shampoo, a pleasant scent.

Badr casually pulled the towel off and said lazily, "Why don't you wait inside? I'll buy you some at the convenience store across the street. I need a change of clothes myself."

"Are you sure it's okay?"

"What's the problem?"

"A high school boy buying girls' underwear?"

"Who cares? I'm already a pervert, right?" Badr said airily.

Sakurajima Mai was speechless.

After a moment, she said, "I'll go with you."

"I can handle it alone."

"I'm just worried you'll buy something outrageous."

"I'd like to, but the convenience store only has basic stuff."

Badr quipped, but Mai had already locked the door and resumed changing her clothes, the sound of her hairdryer soon following.

When she finally emerged, Badr couldn't help but glance at her, wondering if she was really not wearing anything underneath. Probably not; she must have put something on.

They went downstairs to the convenience store, heading straight to the hygiene products aisle. Before Badr could look closely, Sakurajima Mai had already picked out a black camisole and matching black panties and put them in the shopping basket.

"Isn't this pink one pretty nice?" Badr teased softly.

"I'm not wearing it for you, so any colour will do."

"Well, if the opportunity arises, I'd like to see."

"You'll never get that chance, idiot."

Mai said lazily, dragging out the word "idiot" as she strolled towards another section.

Badr picked out a pair of black boxers and followed her.

"Black looks pretty good too."

Mai put two instant meals in the basket and, though she heard him, shot him a withering look.

"What did you say?"

"Nothing."

Badr smiled and took the shopping basket to the checkout.

They had no trouble with the cashier thinking he was buying women's clothes. After successfully purchasing everything they needed, they returned to the inn.

They sat facing each other, eating the convenience store meals. Badr took a shower, and when he came out with his hair dry, he found Sakurajima Mai sitting on the bed, looking troubled.

"You're not thinking of kicking me out again, right?" Badr asked directly.

"No, leaving you in the hallway would cause trouble for the innkeeper."

Mai said, finally looking at the single bed.

"Can you promise you won't do anything?"

Her tone was full of hesitation.

Badr answered without hesitation, "I promise."

"Liar!"

Badr could only shrug.

In this situation, even if he thought for a few more seconds, it would be misunderstood as having bad intentions.

What can I do? I'm desperate, too...

Finally, Sakurajima Mai steadied herself and said, "It's fine if you just sleep next to me."

"Great."

"Don't make me hit you!"

It seemed she still had her guard up.

With a smile, Badr watched as Mai moved slightly inward.

He lifted the covers and slipped in beside her, feeling the warmth where Mai had been lying.

"It's touching. No one's ever warmed my bed for me before."

Sakurajima Mai: "...??"

---

In the small room, Sakurajima Mai sighed.

"Saying too many stupid things will make you an idiot."

Badr didn't mind her disdain. There was a strange kind of mutual understanding between him and Sakurajima Mai. They always seemed to tease each other, but deep down, they knew neither would take it to heart.

They lay together on the single bed, the narrow space making moving impossible.

"Badr."

Mai suddenly called out.

"Yeah?"

"It's cramped."

She said it very calmly.

"...Sorry for squeezing you."

Badr stared at the ceiling, not moving.

"Don't you have anything to say?" she asked, seemingly out of nowhere.

Badr turned his head, seeing her fair profile, her long eyelashes almost countable.

"So much has happened. There are many things I want to say, but I suddenly don't know where to start." He looked away and answered softly.

"Say something to make me happy."

She must be feeling down; Badr interpreted her words easily.

"How you're feeling now seems like a tall order."

Sakurajima Mai turned slightly, lying on her side to look at him up close.

"Badr enjoys being teased by me, doesn't he?"

"Knowing that and still teasing me, Mai, you're a queen to the core."

Saying this, Badr also turned slightly, and their eyes met.

The room suddenly fell silent.

Lying in the same bed, they quietly stared at each other.

Being so close, they could feel each other's breath.

Neither intended to look away, just quietly gazing at each other.
