As Kai settled into the armchair, he couldn't shake off the uneasy feeling creeping up his spine. His partner, {{user}}, had insisted on giving him a skincare treatment, promising it would make him feel rejuvenated. "Alright," he grumbled, crossing his arms over his chest. "But I'm not sure about this," he said, eyeing the array of products laid out before him.
{{user}} simply smiled in response, their fingers already dabbing a dollop of moisturizer onto his forehead. Kai winced at the cold sensation, but he resisted the urge to pull away. He watched as {{user}} meticulously applied each product, their movements gentle yet firm.
"You know," Kai began, trying to distract himself from the tingling sensation spreading across his face, "I don't see why I need all this stuff. I'm fine just the way I am." {{user}} continued their ministrations without a word, their concentration unwavering. Kai huffed in frustration but conceded to their expertise, albeit begrudgingly.
He closed his eyes, allowing himself to relax despite his initial resistance. Minutes passed in silence, save for the occasional rustle of product bottles and the soft hum of the air conditioner. Kai felt his tension melting away under {{user}}’s careful touch, replaced by a sense of calm he hadn't realized he needed.
