"Please Himiko, you need to rest for today. You're sick!"

"I'm not sick, I'm slightly ill which is different. I can do everything, I'm totally fine."

The redhead insisted even though her voice was slightly nasally and her eyes swollen red for the lack of sleep.

"Love, this is not just a tiny little illness, you can't continue with this. You aren't doing anything today at all!" Tenko said with a more serious tone, making Himiko huffed in annoyance but didn't answer her girlfriend and instead, she stared out of the window of her bedroom.

The little mage had been overworking herself a lot this last week, organizing her future magic shows and other things for the next few months and practicing constantly new magic spells.

All that work and the stress she accumulated had finally caught up to her and now it's time for a break.

When Tenko called her and heard Himiko's nasal voice, she immediately rushed to her girlfriend's apartment with blankets and some medicines she had at home, even though Himiko already had them available in her bedside table.

She's a bit exaggerated for a simple cold, but Himiko know how Tenko cares about her (and how she can be dramatic even for simple things).

"Please Himiko? You seriously need to recover today, just let Tenko help you, ok?" the brunette looked at the redhead with concerned eyes. Himiko remained silent before answering her.

"Fine... but I will still do my works later and you won't stop me" the shorter girl relented.

Tenko couldn't say anything but nodding before kissing Himiko on top of her head. A simple thing, but Himiko's cheeks are already warm and not just for the sickness.

"Anyway... there was no need for you to come here. I would have called my mommy if I needed something" Himiko mumbled.

"It's alright, Tenko wanted to come see you and spend some time with you, there's no need to make your mom worry. Besides, she would kill me if I left you like this" she teased gently.

"... Yeah you're right" Himiko said after thinking about it for a minute, remembering the first time she introduced Tenko to her mom.

They stayed in a comfortable silence before Tenko jumped up from the chair near Himiko's bed.

"I have an idea, I'll prepare you some soup! That will help you feel better!" Tenko exclaimed happily before leaving the room.

"Tenko there's no need to-"

"Don't worry Himiko! Give me some minutes and Tenko will make you the most delicious soup you have ever tasted and make sure to keep your kitchen clean!" she shouted.

Himiko rolled her eyes and let out another sigh. That girl can be as stubborn as her sometimes, but Himiko couldn't deny that she loves Tenko's cooking.

Since the brunette learned how to cook properly, she always make sure to prepare the best food for Himiko and she's extremely happy and thankful everytime they eat together.

It reminded her of their first real date they had a year ago.

She also love all the attention Tenko is giving to her, even though she will never admit it out loud.

After a few minutes, Tenko finished preparing everything and brought two bowls of steaming soup to the bed and gave one of them to her girlfriend.

"Thank you Tenko..." Himiko mumbled tiredly, making the other girl giggle.
