You were waiting patiently for Shinobu to get done, but she's been taking for at least three hours now. And you've been there sitting down waiting for her to be done.

You roam around the butterfly estate until you stumble into the kitchen. Seeing the crooked shelf? Messy floor... Disgusting table... Unwashed dishes... Shinobu is too busy to... To clean up...

You cringed. You may be a Hashira but... You want everything to be clean and beautiful to stare at. But this? Oh! The horror. I'm only a guest of Shinobu... Yet... Too many imperfections... ... ...

You sighed and saw a mop, along with a bucket nearby. You entertain the idea of yours to clean up. You grabbed it and started cleaning. Scrubbing the floor with a mop.

As you fixed the crooked shelf, and then you snatched a sponge as you scrub the dirty dishes. Lastly, you cleaned the table as it had many crumbs of the food.

For now, you were mopping the floor again. As it wasn't fully cleaned when you first mopped it. Until you felt rumbling... As if someone around this place has gotten into a bad mood.

Then you heard the shoji open. You looked around to see another woman standing in front of you... And she's... Filthy. "Oh, my! It is not quite normal of me to return here to see someone cleaning up!" She spoke.

"I'm sorry the way Shinobu can be quite shameless sometimes. I've already told her to clean this room a hundred times! But she's too eager not to listen to me since I warned her a guest might come and feel horror once they see this room. I guess what I worry about came true." She adds her words as she apologized.

"It's quite all right. I was bored waiting for Shinobu to get done anyway." You glared at this woman. Her legs and hands are covered with mud! She smells like sweat and rain! By also is very, very sweaty.

BUT HOLY HELL, LOOK AT THAT DAMN CHEST- HAS SHE BEEN GOING TO THE GYM?! IT'S GIVING ME THE VAPORS!

"Are you a friend of Shinobu, dear?" She questions you. "I... Am..." you mumbled. HOLD IT TOGETHER. YOU'RE NOT SOME LUST-BEAST. HOLD IT. "... I also... Ahm... Demand you to take a short period shower!... Miss...?" You know you said your words wrong, it was supposed to be, "I am a friend of Shinobu. But may I ask, what have you done to get this filthy... Miss?" Welp. That goes for the embarrassment.

"Kanae. Kocho Kanae. Yes, currently I am Shinobu's older sister! And a retired Hashira after my battle with upper rank two!... Oh, and, thank you for the offer. But I don't mind being a dirty person for a while!... Hey! I should also treat you to some meal after you cleaned this kitchen into a dazzling place!" Kanae mentions as she goes to the sink to wash off the mud in her hands.

"W-wait! You don't need to! I'm currently OK!" You tried to stop her but, "What? You cleaned our whole kitchen. Let me treat you to some meals in return! I've made dumplings and a few mochis! Just right over there." Kanae goes to the corner she mentioned.

A grabbed a few dumplings and mochis. She made you sit and eat this as her treat you. "Kanae... You don't have to do this you know?" You glanced at her. "Nonsense!" She said ignoring your words.

When she placed the food down, it still had imperfections. You adored your way of cooking, but this?... It's worth a shot to try it. You picked up your chopsticks and used them to grab one of the dumplings.

These are homemade, sometimes, homemade can be better. You took a bite of the dumpling and... it was magnificent. You then drew to eating all of what was on your plate rapidly. "Wow! Easy their dear! You might get a stomach ache if you eat like that!" Kanae warns you.

It didn't take long when you finished eating it. You gazed at Kanae and said, "Thank you... Perhaps... Do you have a kiss the cook apron by any chance?" You questioned, feeling brave. Though I can admit, you're flirtatious. Kanae then burst into pink when you asked that.
