My stepmother's burden is my ex-girlfriend.

Senior Sister Ya Shuang also said that she was "a little serious this time."

"A little" is just a cover-up. The fact that these two people, who rarely reveal their inner thoughts, use the word "serious" should represent a considerable degree of determination.

What are they getting so serious about? Senior Ya Shuang wants to be with Senior Xing Bian even after he graduates. And what about Xiao Yue? So far, she hasn't done anything particularly significant, but it must be related to Chuan Bo.

Even though both sides maintain the status quo and their relationship seems good enough, they still say they want to "get serious".

And what about me—I don't know how many times I've asked myself this question.

Am I... taking this seriously?

Do I... think it's necessary to take this seriously?

"—Yui! You're taking too long to undress!—"

As my consciousness surfaced from contemplation, Xiaoyue, completely naked, stood before me.

She stood with her legs spread apart, seemingly fearless, a towel draped over her shoulders.

"Xiaoyue...aren't you going to cover yourself up at all?"

"Why are you covering it up—? We're all girls!"

Xiaoyue let out a slightly lewd "ee-hee-hee" laugh. Okay, while she's right, I don't think it's necessary to stand with your legs spread so wide in front of others.

We've now arrived at the women's changing room. Since we're going to enter the bathhouse, we obviously need to take off our clothes. However, I was thinking about something... and I rarely bathe with others, so I hesitated for a moment in front of the lockers.

I was trying my best to avoid being seen, facing the locker, and hurriedly took off my shirt—but it seems there are others who aren't as shy as I am.

"You're only shy because you're embarrassed! Being naked here is normal, so just take your clothes off like it's perfectly normal!"

"I know, but..."

"Take it off! Take it off now! Hurry up! Let me see!"

"Why do I think I heard you tell me to take my clothes off for you?"

Xiaoyue, sometimes she says things that don't sound like something a woman would say... Well, I know she's joking, and she seems to have toned it down a bit lately.

"Well then, everyone, I'll go in first."

It turns out that Xiaoyue wasn't the only one with such a brazen attitude.

Without hesitation, Chairman Hong stripped naked and walked towards the bathhouse, showing us his firm, pert buttocks.

Seeing her back, I felt a little moved for some reason.

On the one hand, seeing the naked body of such an important figure as Chairman Hong moved me; on the other hand, her fair and delicate skin was so beautiful it gave me goosebumps… But the biggest reason was that her posture and every movement of her walking were so natural and unpretentious, completely the unique demeanor of someone accustomed to being the center of attention.

In fact, Xiaoyue squinted and stared intently at the president's buttocks.

"The president—she's so petite, but she has an amazing figure. Although her bust size is just average, it only accentuates her naturally curvaceous hips—"

"Stop talking."

I covered Xiaoyue's eyes with my arm. Perhaps in the near future, wearing bath clothes in public bathhouses will become the norm.

"Little Yueyue, even though you say that, you have a great figure!"

As for Senior Sister Ya Shuang, who was also completely naked with a towel draped over her shoulder, she said this.

The senior student stared at Xiaoyue's body from head to toe, and said:

"So slender, so petite, with curves in all the right places... I remember you used to be into sports?"

"I only occasionally help out with other people's club activities~ I'd like to say..."

This time, Xiaoyue looked at Senior Yashuang and grinned.

"Big sister, you have a supermodel figure! Why are you doing those pointless things?!"

"Don't say it's meaningless! I'm happy, so what's it to you!"

After removing her revealing outfit and the vanity hidden in her bra, Senior Sister Ya Shuang now looks tall, slender, and upright, like a model or a swimmer.

Despite being nude, it looks artistic, not pornographic at all. It evokes images of nude paintings or the Venus de Milo. The tightness of her waist, in particular, is nothing short of miraculous, even for a woman like myself.

"Big sister, you're not involved in any clubs or anything, are you?! How can you have such a tiny waist that it looks like it's about to break?"

"Hmph, isn't it? Isn't it? I was thinking that if I could just shrink my waist, maybe I could make my bust look bigger~ I'm working super hard to get in shape!"

"I admire you so much! I have the utmost respect for you!"

Under the flattery of Xiaoyue, who had suddenly become her subordinate, Senior Yashuang struck various poses. Xiaoyue made a camera gesture with both hands and started cheering, "Very good! Not bad! Click, click!"

Perhaps having noticed the senior's actions, the student from the east end leaned closer with a puzzled look and whispered something in my ear:

"(Excuse me... Ms. Yui, which upperclassman...?)"

"(That's what you call respecting ghosts and spirits but keeping them at a distance, Dongtou.)"

Dongtou had no idea about Yashuang's vanity; he must have been shocked to see her body change so drastically. She exclaimed, "Haaah~..." as she gazed at the gentle hills.

But then again... no wonder they're the school's most talked-about beautiful student council; both Asahi-senpai and President Kurenai have amazing figures. And Asuha-in and Higashi-tou are even more stunning, not to mention Akatsuki, who, thanks to her exercise, has a healthy beauty hidden in her curves.

The people around me are all of such a high caliber.

Taking a bath with girls like them is a bit daunting... I thought to myself as I reached behind me and unhooked the small back clasp of my bra.

"...Sigh, little Yueyue..."

"...Yes, Boss..."

"...I think she's like Yuuko's type..."

"...Yes, a girl with such a serious and pure personality..."

"...If you take off your clothes and find you have a super hot body..."

"...It will make you burn with lust, right...?"

I felt a chill for some reason and quickly covered my chest with a washcloth.

"You could even say that she is the most erotic of all."

"Yui doesn't even need to take her clothes off to be a queen of eroticism, senpai!"

"What are you talking about?!"

Please don't give your female classmates or friends evil looks without hesitation!

"Hey! She's angry!" The two of them frolicked like children and dashed off to the bathing area. Seriously... the two of them together were more than the sum of their parts; no one could control them.

I was ready to take a bath, but the other two—Higashi-san and Asuha-in-san—hadn't finished taking off their clothes. Higashi-san was still wearing only a bra on her upper body, while Asuha-in-san had only taken off her outer garment.

"What's wrong with you two?...Are you shy?"

This reminds me of something Higashi-san once said: "Even if we're all girls, we'll still feel shy when we're naked"—maybe Asuha-in is the same type as her.

Asahi-no-in placed her hand on the buttons of the women's shirt and pursed her lips unhappily.

"No...no, there's nothing to be ashamed of. It's perfectly normal to take your clothes off at the bathhouse. I'll be there in a bit, please go ahead, Irito-san."

"Oh, I see... That's good then."

Why insist on showing your competitive spirit even at a time like this? Just when I thought she was cute, Asuha-in started unbuttoning her women's shirt one button at a time.

As for the other one—Dongtou—he was only wearing a bra on his upper body and a skirt on his lower body, and he was in such a state of being barely clothed that he put his hands behind his back as if he was fighting with something.

"N-I'm sorry...this bra was just altered, and I'm not familiar with the back clasp position yet..."

"Are you sure you can do it? Do you want me to help you untie it?"

"Thank you so much..."

I went around behind my classmate on the east side and reached out to grab the bra strap across her fair back.

This bra... has three rows of back clasps. The strap length can be adjusted to fit the cup size. And she's fastening it at its shortest setting right now... does she think it'll get bigger?

With a touch of reverence, I unfastened the small back clasp—

--The meatball bounces around!

I thought I heard that sound effect. No, it was just my imagination. It's impossible for full breasts to produce that sound simply because they're freed from the constraints of a bra and bear the weight of gravity. No, but just now, I really did…

"Phew—thank you—"

"No, it won't happen..."

I felt as if I had seen something frightening, and I fled towards the bathhouse.

...Speaking of this...

We've known each other for half a year... and I still haven't seen Dongtou's naked body...

Irito Yume ◆ Four Fruits

"Wow! The hot water is golden!"

Xiaoyue looked down at the hot water in the large bathtub and exclaimed excitedly.

The hot water in the bathtub was less golden and more a murky brownish-red, with no bottom visible. After rinsing myself briefly, I slowly immersed myself in the tub, starting from my toes, and placed the washcloth I was holding on the edge of the tub.

"call……"

So comfortable... I walked quite a bit today, and now taking a bath feels like a full-body massage. I feel a little shy if people see me looking so relaxed and lazy, but thankfully the murky spring water helps to conceal my body.

"Ah, this is truly paradise on earth..."

"Senior, you talk like an old man."

"It's nothing serious, that's what soaking in a hot spring is like~ Little Yueyue, do you know? This hot spring seems to appear in the Nihon Shoki."

"The Nihon Shoki? That's not history anymore, it's practically mythology!"

"Of the thirty volumes in the Nihon Shoki, only the first and second volumes describe the Age of Gods."

The Red Association president, who puts a towel on his head, speaks like a living Wikipedia.

Senior Sister Ya Shuang immersed her chin in the brownish-red hot water and said:

"Anyway, it's definitely a paradise on earth—because even gods have bathed in it. Probably..."

Seeing how relaxed she is, it's hard to imagine that she was just now full of energy saying, "I must win over Senior Xingbian!" Or is she just conserving her energy?

Xiaoyue sat on the edge of the bathtub, looking back.

"By the way, where are Dongtou and the others?"

"They should be here soon."

Say everyone is here.

Two girls walked barefoot through the steamy air from the changing room.

Higashi-san is a little taller than me. So when Asahiya-in stands next to her, she looks even smaller.

However, the two have equally high profiles.

This is because──

──Bouncing──Bouncing──

"Excuse me... what's wrong?"

"No, it's fine."

"Then why do you keep coming over to look at me!"

Asahi-no-in turned around to avoid the eyes of the student from the east looking up from above.

The student in the east corner also leaned forward, his eyes following her.

With every gesture and movement of theirs, a certain part of their body swayed... a surge of movement—

──Bouncing──Bouncing──

"""

Faced with four fruits closing in, we were speechless.

We already knew they were big, and we had actually touched them and knew they were very soft.

However—once you add snow-white skin and the elasticity that allows it to bounce back to its original shape no matter how much you shake it, it becomes uncharted territory.

The same goes for Higashi-san and Asuha-in-san; despite looking big and heavy, they didn't lose at all. You ask what they lost to? Gravity.

The one from the east end seems to be called bell-shaped, a shape that makes the teardrop-shaped lower nipple appear quite heavy. As for the one from Asuhain, that seems to be called bowl-shaped, presenting a beautiful hemisphere, with its rounded outline clearly visible. However, it would be more accurate to call it a large bowl rather than a bowl.
