"Miku, please help me get it. Never mind, I'll just come out and get it myself."
The voice from inside the bathroom said.
To prevent the person inside from running out naked, Satou quickly rushed to the sofa and picked up the freshly dried bathrobe.
However, just as he reached the doorway, the door suddenly opened, and a girl with waist-length hair emerged from inside.
Her figure was graceful, with long legs, a slender waist, and a full bust. Her long hair was wet and cascaded down her back, and glistening droplets of water flowed from her neck down to her ankles, over her smooth, tender skin.
Satou quietly swallowed, cold sweat gradually appearing on his forehead as he nervously looked at her.
Because the Five Sisters looked almost identical, Satou couldn't be sure which one this girl was.
However, Nakano Ichika and Nakano Yotsuba both had short hair, and it couldn't be Miku, so it must be either Nakano Nino or Nakano Itsuki.
She squinted slightly, looking at Satou for a moment.
Just as Satou almost forgot to breathe, she suddenly took the bathrobe from his hand, casually wrapped it around herself, and complained, "You really are something. I had to come out myself before you helped me get it."
Huh?
Satou was a bit puzzled. What was wrong with this girl? Shouldn't she be screaming? Could it be that she was extremely nearsighted?
The girl wrapped herself in the bathrobe, then walked to the sofa, crossed her fair, long legs, and began to blow-dry her hair.
The air was filled with the scent of shampoo mixed with the girl's fragrance.
"Why are you still standing there like an idiot? Aren't you going back to your room?"
She said indifferently while drying her hair.
Satou, steeling himself, went upstairs to Nakano Miku's door and knocked.
He had already memorized their respective rooms from his last visit.
A moment later, Nakano Miku opened the door, wearing headphones, seemingly playing a newly bought game.
Seeing Satou, she was a bit surprised, "Satou, why are you here?"
"Let's talk inside first."
Satou said.
Nakano Miku nodded, then opened the door and let him in.
"Is your foot better?"
Satou asked.
"Hmm, the swelling has gone down a bit."
Nakano Miku's face flushed slightly as she lowered her head and nodded.
"Oh, here are your stockings."
Satou remembered the purpose of his visit and tossed the two wads of used stockings to her.
"Ah."
Nakano Miku let out a soft gasp, caught them, her cheeks flushed, looking very adorable.
"Thank you."
She said.
"Um, are any of your sisters nearsighted?"
Satou hesitated for a moment, asking somewhat guiltily.
"Nino's nearsightedness is quite severe. Is something wrong?"
Nakano Miku looked at him strangely, asking in a calm tone.
"Is that so? Nothing."
Satou breathed a sigh of relief. This way, he could just walk straight out. Even if Nakano Nino spoke to him, he wouldn't have to respond; just walking out quickly would be fine.
"Then I'll be going now."
He said, then opened the door, only to see Nakano Itsuki had just returned to the living room and was sitting on the sofa, chatting and laughing with Nakano Nino.
The door Satou had just opened slammed shut again.
Although Nakano Nino was nearsighted, Nakano Itsuki wasn't. If he walked out like this, Nakano Itsuki would definitely notice him, and then Nakano Nino would surely suspect who had handed her the bathrobe just now.
"Satou, what's wrong?"
Nakano Miku tilted her head, looking at him strangely.
"Um, Miku, I want to stay in your room a little longer."
Satou said somewhat guiltily.
"Eh?"
Nakano Miku clearly misunderstood Satou's meaning. Her face turned red at a visible speed, and steam rose from her head, turning her into a'steam princess'.
She shyly turned her back, covering her face, and said in an adorable tone, "Satou, if you want to stay longer, it's no problem."
Seeing Miku turn into a'steam princess', Satou knew she had clearly misunderstood him and quickly said, "You misunderstood. It's just that just now, Nino asked me to hand her the bathrobe, and then I accidentally saw her body…"
Then, he quickly explained the situation.
"Of course, she came out first; I didn't intentionally look."
He added, then looked at Nakano Miku somewhat nervously, very worried that she might get angry.
Nakano Miku looked at him for a moment, then suddenly turned her head, her face puffed up like a steamed bun, "You are guilty. Hurry and commit seppuku."
She had a jealous expression.
Satou: "..."
"I really didn't do it on purpose."
He said with extreme helplessness.
"Then suit yourself."
Nakano Miku walked to her chair, sat down, put on her headphones, and started playing games, completely ignoring Satou.
Just like that, Satou waited in her room, occasionally peeking out the door to see if anyone was still in the living room.
However, to his dismay, Nakano Itsuki and Nino were chatting enthusiastically, bursting into laughter from time to time, having a very pleasant conversation, with no intention of leaving.
Satou had no choice but to continue waiting.
Soon, half an hour passed.
Nakano Miku was clearly still sulking, playing games with her headphones on, and ignoring Satou.
Nino and Nakano Itsuki were still chatting.
Satou felt extremely depressed in his heart; how long did he have to wait?
Just then, he suddenly felt something hit him. He looked down and saw a bag of potato chips.
He looked up at Nakano Miku.
"Thanks."
"Hmph."
Nakano Miku let out a soft hmph, turning her head away tsundere-like, ignoring him.
Another half hour passed, during which Nakano Miku threw him another can of drink.
Although Nakano Miku would tsundere-like hmph every time he thanked her, Satou was still very grateful for her feeding him.
In a flash, it was six o'clock in the evening.
Satou felt extremely helpless. Was he going to stay in Miku's room forever?
Would he rely on her feeding him for a living from now on?
Just then, a door closing sound came from next door. Satou was pleasantly surprised. Had Nakano Itsuki finally returned to her room?
He secretly opened the door and indeed saw that only Nino was left in the living room.
"Are you leaving? I'll go out with you."
Nakano Miku took off her headphones, stood up, and said calmly.
