“Hmph! This time, I can’t even forgive you, Sihyun-ssi!”

Spica was heading home in a fit of anger.

It was because she’d been dragged to a week of incredibly grueling training at the end of the year, without any mental preparation.

She was even planning to go out and have fun with him the next day!

He abandoned her and went out with only Sihyun-ssi!

This was really too much!

Standing by on standby from dawn till night for four days straight!

It was the end of the year and the weather was chilly, so she was planning to stay at home, all cozy and cuddly, but a whole week… A whole week of not being able to sleep properly or rest well, having to focus intensely on spartan training! In the end, she couldn’t even call Sihyun-ssi for a week! She couldn’t even see his face for a second! The special training was so hard that she wanted to quit!

Even if she got too excited while doing some perverted play and ended up getting reported for insertion on the subway with other people around, and even got called to the police station together to be lectured, wasn’t it still too much?

“Hmm…..”

Come to think of it, Spica’s anger had completely subsided.

No. Surely, Spica had a conscience, so what she felt just now couldn’t have been anger.

That’s right. Passion! It was passion!

She hadn’t seen Sihyun-ssi for a week, so the longing to see him had caused an explosion, turning into burning passion!

Yes! Of course, it was! Because she had a conscience!

Spica’s passionately moving feet came to a halt.

Come to think of it, it wasn’t that a week had passed, but that only a week had passed.

Would Sihyun-ssi’s anger have subsided after a week?

She hadn’t done it in the house, but outside.

What had she done to Sihyun-ssi, who only lightly allowed skinship over clothes?

She got excited and caught up in the mood, forgetting that there were people around and getting completely absorbed.

Wouldn’t he let her off with just inserting her fingers?

Even she thought that inserting it all the way was too much.

When she thought about it, just the fact that he worked so hard to protect her from being locked up in jail at the police station, shouldn’t she be unable to face Sihyun-ssi for the rest of her life?

Although she had already done so much that she couldn’t bear to look at his face.

If she could, Spica wanted to turn back time.

“Ugh….”

The flow of time flows from the past to the future, and humans do not know how to escape from this great flow.

Magic to return to the past has never been discovered.

They had already contacted her that all the training was over, and if she was too late, Sihyun would worry, so she couldn’t run away somewhere and then come back.

“Ha… I have to go.”

Spica gave up and moved her feet.

——————————————————————————————————————————————-

“Huff… Huff…..”

Spica stood in front of the house and composed herself.

As she took a deep breath, her white breath briefly obscured her vision.

“…….”

She missed Sihyun-ssi.

– Click

“I’m home~”

In the end, Spica decided to go inside as if nothing was wrong.

Her heart was pounding, so she didn’t know if it went well, but she worked hard to remind herself to go in as if nothing was wrong.

Fortunately, she didn’t make any mistakes during the short greeting.

“Oh~ Spica, you’re here? Welcome home~”

As soon as she came in, she smelled the delicious smell of meat being grilled.

A presence could be felt from across the kitchen, running towards the entrance.

“Weren’t you cold? You worked hard~”

“Ah.”

Spica, who was about to say, ‘Sihyun-ssi! I missed you!’ only let out a short groan and lost her words.

Her mind went blank for a moment because of the cute and lovely Santa who appeared in front of her.

Seeing the real Sihyun after a few days was a culture shock to Spica.

“Spica? Are you okay?”

“YesImokayImverryokay.”

“You don’t sound okay…”

A bright red dress and pure white fur.

The outfit, which was obviously inspired by Santa Claus, accentuated Sihyun’s fair skin.

The small shawl covering her shoulders fluttered every time Sihyun moved, making her very cute, and the legs revealed by the mini skirt that couldn’t cover all of her thighs were incredibly sexy.

“Santa?”

“Hehehe. How is it? Cute? I thought Spica would like it, so I wore it.”

“Too, too cute.”

“Right? When else would I wear it other than now?”

Sihyun smiled brightly, showing off her outfit to Spica.

Spica could feel something welling up as she looked at her.

“Spica?! You, you’re bleeding from your nose!”

“Ah.”

It was a nosebleed.

Spica was so excited to see Sihyun that warm, viscous liquid was flowing from her nose.

When she rubbed her nose with her finger, her finger turned red.

“You must be tired! The training must have been too hard… Let’s go in and rest quickly!”

“That’s not it…”

“Come on! Come in! Don’t do anything until mealtime and just rest.”

Spica was led into the living room by Sihyun’s hand.

Spica, who was seated on the sofa, had to stay still without even getting up, being watched by Sihyun.

Sihyun left Spica and returned to the kitchen.

The clattering sound from across the wall was rhythmically heard.

The sound of cooking sizzling in the frying pan.

The smell of chicken, which she had smelled as soon as she entered the house, being grilled to a golden-brown perfection.

And the scent of various spices.

It seemed that Sihyun had put in some effort because Spica was coming home after a long time.

Judging by the clothes she was wearing, it was also a slightly belated Christmas celebration.

The living room was warmly heated.

The empty feeling she felt every time she came home.

The sound of someone else moving around in the kitchen for her.

The food she had prepared to eat alone.

Someone welcoming her home.

The hollow ‘I’m home’ that echoed.

“Ah…… Home.”

Spica felt like she had finally come home.

——————————————————————————————————————————————-

Smooth and savory warm mushroom soup.

Pasta made in authentic Italian style and salad made with fresh vegetables.

Shrimp that was well-fried and seasoned with cream and chili, respectively.

Roast chicken that was moist inside and crispy on the outside.

Finally, cake to celebrate Christmas, served with tea.

Spica and Sihyun finished their meal full.

Sihyun was worried that she had made too much while making it, but Spica, who was eating home-cooked food for the first time in a week, ate everything without leaving a single bite.

It had been much longer than a week since she had eaten food made by Sihyun.

“Was it delicious?”

“Yes! It was the best, Sihyun-ssi!”

“Really? I’m glad.”

Her stomach was full, her back was warm, and Sihyun-ssi was next to her.

Spica’s painful memories of the grueling special training from the past week were already fading.

Come to think of it, Shaula unni would soon be busy retiring.

It was really grateful that she had taken a week to look after her younger sister in the midst of all that.

If she was retiring, she would have to hand over her skills like she taught her this time, prepare for her life after retirement, and be busy preparing for her wedding since she was retiring while getting married.

It was the end of the year for both herself and Spica, so it was a precious time, wouldn’t it be natural to slightly increase the intensity of the training in order to shorten the training time as much as possible?

Besides, wasn’t it Spica herself who asked her to end it as quickly as possible, saying that she didn’t care if it was difficult?

Shaula unni had simply listened to that faithfully.

Come to think of it, Sihyun-ssi wouldn’t have been angry and put her in boot camp for a week.

Even though what she had done was really unforgivable, how goddess-like and kind was Sihyun-ssi.

Spica knew that Sihyun waited anxiously every time she went out to fight the demons.

He always welcomed her back as if he didn’t care at all, but she knew that he was always praying for her safe return.

Spica knew that Sihyun’s game progress wouldn’t happen at all during the operation period, no matter how long it was.

“Thank you, Sihyun-ssi!”

“Hm? For what?”

“The training was hard, but I feel energized because I have Sihyun-ssi!”

“It’s nothing. It’s a reward because Spica is working hard.”

“Thank you, Sihyun-ssi.”

A friendly atmosphere flowed between Sihyun and Spica.

Spica, who was on dish duty for the evening, was doing the dishes.

Sihyun was watching Spica doing the dishes from the table.

Sihyun had finished the dishes that came out in between cooking, so there wasn’t as much as she thought.

Spica quickly finished the dishes with her skillful hands.

“Done!”

“Good job, Spica.”

“Sihyun-ssi!”

After wiping her wet hands, Spica hugged Sihyun, who was approaching her.

A week of hard training.

They had eaten and it was late, so it was obvious what lovers who were meeting after a long time would do from now on.

“Sihyun-ssi…. Bed… Would you like to go…?”

They had both washed up, so all they had to do was go straight to bed.

The warmth of the two people sharing a hug.

Eyes meeting eyes.

Faces getting closer.

The two people’s lips touched….

“Ah. No.”

“Eh.”

They didn’t touch.

Spica was pushed back in vain when Sihyun pushed her away with a refusal.

“I’m glad to see you after a week, but I’m still not over it, okay?”

“Eh.”

“After doing something like that, you left the house for a week without saying a word. I understand because it’s training, but I’m still not over it. We’re using separate rooms for the time being.”

“Eh.”

Only then did Spica realize that she had misunderstood.

From Sihyun’s point of view, it wasn’t that Spica had done something wrong, so he sent her to a week of hard training.

She had been thinking that even though Spica had done something wrong, he had broken his promise to go out and play with her and left the house for a week.

“Well, good night, Spica~”

“Ah… Ugh…. Sihyun-ssi…..”

Spica’s muttering of ‘An oh-heh-n day….’ did not reach Sihyun, who was walking away and returning to her room.

Spica hurriedly called Magical Girl Shaula.

– Beep.. Beep.. Beep..

– The person you are calling is not available. After the beep,

Spica turned off the phone without listening to the entire voice message.

Presumably, Shaula unni had met her lover after a week, so she must be having a hot night right now.

So of course she wouldn’t answer the phone.

There was no one to clear up the misunderstanding.

“Sob…. I should have knelt down and begged as soon as I came….”

It was already too late and Sihyun had already gone into her room.

The flow of time flows from the past to the future, and humans do not know how to escape from this great flow.

Magic to return to the past has never been discovered.

She had no choice but to shed tears of hot regret.

Fortunately, it seemed that Sihyun-ssi’s anger had been more than 90% resolved.

However, the fact remained that she had to embrace her boiling lust and sleep alone tonight.

Spica sadly moved her feet to her room.

The blanket was fluffy because Sihyun had washed it while Spica was away.
