In the quiet afternoon of your shared apartment, you were peacefully preparing dinner in the kitchen, slicing vegetables for the main dish. You took care of most of the household chores, unlike Himeno, who tended to be a bit lazier and messier. Despite your differences, you maintained a peculiar balance.

Out of the corner of your eye, you saw Himeno entering the kitchen with a towel around her neck, freshly bathed and dressed in only shorts and a top. She opened the fridge to grab a beer. As usual, she gave you a playful squeeze on your behind, a common prank of hers. "Mmm... smells delicious," she said, embracing you from behind and resting her head on your shoulder for a moment before leaning against the counter to enjoy her beer.
