"Raana?"
Kaito opened his eyes, originally thinking it was Kumiko playing a prank. After all, the little knife girl had done such things before. She had seen similar plots in some shoujo manga and wanted to imitate them: sneaking into the bathroom while he was soaking, trying to take advantage of her master, who had his eyes closed.
The final outcome, of course, was being caught red-handed by Kaito, spanked, and then thrown out.
"Is there something wrong?", Looking at the silver-haired girl who opened the door and walked in, he felt a bit puzzled, but didn't think too much of it. He thought Raana might just be unaccustomed to the new environment, after all, cats are creatures that love familiarity.
"Mm…"
Kaname Raana extended an index finger and gently pressed it to her lips, seemingly thinking.
Then, calmly lifted her head and said with complete seriousness, "Want to take a bath, together."
Kaito: "?"
The kitty didn't seem to have any intention of asking his opinion. After speaking, she had already started undressing.
The girl's outfit was simple. On top, a black ripped hoodie paired with a white undershirt. She wasn't wearing any pants on the bottom; her bare legs, fair and tender, stepped in sandals, with pearl-like, rounded toes that were crystal clear and had a healthy pink hue.
While Kaito was still in a brief moment of daze, she had already tossed the black hoodie into the basket to the side and was lifting the white undershirt underneath, just revealing her fair, smooth stomach, a waist that could be held in one hand, and a cute belly button.
He didn't feel embarrassed or shy. Although the kitty was undeniably a top-tier beauty, perhaps due to her strange behavior and relatively young age, Kaito instinctively categorized her as a pet cat or younger sister type.
Would you feel aroused by your house cat?
The answer is obvious.
Even if the girl's skin was so white it dazzled the eyes, her curves soft like spring ridgelines, and the tiny, delicate navel was spotless and clean enough to make one want to lick it…
Still, Kaito found it hard to develop strange thoughts. If anything, he was more amused and speechless.
"Bathing together isn't a problem, but someone's already in the bathroom now."
Kitty tilted her head slightly, not understanding his meaning. Her pretty face seemed to be saying "so what?"
Clearly, at home, she always bathed with her mom or grandma and would help scrub each other's backs.
Kaito helplessly rubbed his forehead and sighed, feeling more and more like a kindergarten teacher.
"As a girl, you can't casually expose your body in front of outsiders, especially males. And definitely can't bathe together, understand?"
'Isn't sex education supposed to be very comprehensive?'
'Why doesn't Raana understand such basic common sense?'
Actually, the reason was simple.
Due to her grandmother's rules that only top-performing students could play guitar, the kitty had always maintained good grades.
But her personality was inherently lazy, she only had motivation for things or people she was interested in. Once she found something boring, she would immediately disengage.
Even when forcing herself to study, slacking off was inevitable.
And health class, which already sounded uninteresting, was naturally categorized by kitty as a "water class" and usually taken as nap time.
However, as a well-behaved good kitty, Kaname Raana bit her finger and thought for half a second before quickly finding the flaw in Kaito's words.
The girl stared with those beautiful heterochromatic eyes and seriously refuted, "Not an outsider."
'You can't bathe with outsiders.'
'But in my eyes, you're not an outsider.'
Just that simple and straightforward logic.
'Only met me today, isn't that a bit too trusting?'
Kaito didn't know what expression to make, 'Have today's girls become this lacking in caution?'
It's fine if she meets a good person, but if she ran into a big bad wolf in sheep's clothing, she might get tricked into bed ten times in one night.
He wanted to say something more, at least teach Raana how to protect herself, but the kitty clearly had run out of patience.
The girl quickly took off the last piece of white undershirt, then walked briskly to the bathtub, tested the water temperature with her hand, found it suitable, and happily climbed in.
The bathtub he had bought back then was large, big enough for three people. Kitty was also the petite and delicate type, so after getting in, it didn't feel crowded.
But… no matter how big the tub, the area was still limited.
With two people sitting inside, physical contact was inevitable.
That said, even though Raana was younger than most girls he knew, her nutrition was clearly pretty good.
Less than Ryou, more than Nijika.
Thinking that way… a certain great angel from Shimokitazawa seemed rather pitiful. Losing to Bocchi and Ryou was one thing, but even worse than a kid younger than herself?
Luckily, such a small scene wasn't enough to shake Kaito's composure. After all, when with Yumiko, he had seen more stimulating sights.
At worst, just think of it as bathing with Kirara.
Anyway, it wasn't like this hadn't happened before.
On the water's surface floated a little yellow duck, cute and clumsy in its look. It had originally been placed in there by Kaito for fun, but now had become kitty's favorite toy.
The girl's lotus root-like arms were still dripping with water, reflecting dazzling light under the warm bathroom lamp. She was pushing the yellow duck back and forth on the water surface, a childish game, yet she was having a blast.
'As expected, still just a kid who hasn't grown up…'
Kaito shook his head slightly, took the bath towel from the nearby rack, wrapped it around his waist, and prepared to return to his room first.
No matter what, bathing together with a girl he'd just met that day was just too weird. Kitty might not understand, but he couldn't be thoughtless too.
But just as he got up and hadn't yet stepped out of the tub, the girl in front of him looked over curiously.
Seeing that there seemed to be something around Kaito's waist, kitty thought he was secretly hiding another toy.
She had a personality that got excited quickly and bored just as fast. She'd already had enough of the yellow duck after a short while.
Now seeing what looked like a new toy, of course she wouldn't let it go.
So she stretched out her tender little hand and lunged forward.
But missed.
Kaito's eye twitched slightly. If he hadn't been paying attention to kitty's movements all the time, he might really have gotten grabbed this time.
The girl didn't hold back with her strength. Though his physique was extraordinary, strong enough that sniper bullets couldn't pierce him, he wasn't planning to find out how that strange feeling would be.
"No mischief!", He knocked her little head in a disciplining manner. Seeing Kaito suddenly wear a rare serious expression, kitty pouted her lips but still nodded, a bit aggrieved.
However, her curiosity only grew deeper inside.
