After researching nearby clinics, Aira comes back to her senses and wonders if she's being too obsessive.

It's been a week since Himari gave her that tip about birth control pills, but Aira hasn't gone to any clinics to get them yet.

"...This makes me seem like I'm sex-crazed."

That might be underselling it since Aira has a hard time denying it.

After becoming a prisoner of the pleasure Ema gives her, Aira has been trying to figure out how to increase the number of days they can make love.

Before she realized it, she ended up researching birth control pills obsessively. She has amassed plenty of knowledge but has yet to put any of that to use.

However, she found many unexpected benefits during her research, such as cancer prevention and period pain reduction. The more she learned, the more interested she became.

"I don't remember learning any of this in school..."

In the introduction of the article she's currently reading, it says that birth control pills help with emotional instability caused by hormonal imbalances. Aira tends to get depressed before her period, so she's especially drawn to that part.

Of course, some people experience side effects such as nausea, but they can be quite useful for people who have no issues with them.

"...Maybe I should go to a clinic."

She'll need to pay for them, but the benefits outweigh the cost.
Just as she opens up her schedule book to put that in, the front door opens.

"I'm home~"

Ema smiles happily when Aira goes to meet her.
Aira loves her so much that even seeing such a casual expression makes her heart skip a beat.

Ema said that her period ended a few days ago, so today might be the first time they make love in quite a while.

While filled with such anticipation, the two of them sit around the dining table.

Today's dinner is Napolitan. Ever since Aira first made this dish,  Ema has frequently begged her to make more.

After they put their hands together to show respect for the meal, Ema takes some kind of pill.
Aira gets a little worried.

"Did you catch a cold?"
"This isn't cold medicine. It's a birth control pill."

Aira blinks in surprise.
Ema scratches her cheek, looking a little embarrassed.

"Since we're both women, I figured it would be better if we had our periods at the same time."

Aira's beloved girlfriend was thinking the same thing as her.
Just like Aira, Ema wants to make love more often.

"...Are you feeling nauseous? I heard that there are some side effects when you first start taking them."
"I'm feeling fine... Aira, you seem to know a lot about this."
"I've been looking into them myself."

The two of them look at each other and laugh.
Reflecting on the fact that her thoughts aren't one-sided, Aira's love for Ema spills.

Aira wants to continue holding this love that's too big for just two hands together with Ema from now on.

Aira can't help but smile at what she happened to discover.
If Ema wanted to hide something, putting it under the bed is too cliche.

"How many are there...?"

Inside the cardboard box, there are about 10 sets of lingerie.
All of them surely match Ema's tastes.

"...And all of them are sexy."

Some are one size fits all and some are limited to certain bust sizes.

Taking a glance, she sees C70, Aira's own size, listed on some of them.

"...She really is a hopeless pervert."

Ema must have been waiting for a good opportunity to get Aira to wear these.
Looking at some of the other designs, she finds underwear in Ema's size as well.

"Ah..."

Aira hadn't really thought about it, but she already knows Ema's sizes.

"...Maybe I shouldn't be saying that about others."

Quite a while back, Ema said she likes to wear matching outfits, so perhaps she's waiting for a chance to invite Aira to wear matching designs in different colors.

Maybe it's because Aira is only 19, but although Ema can be a bit pushy, she never forces Aira to do anything she doesn't want to.

After observing Aira's reactions, Ema has carefully drawn a line between what is acceptable and what isn't.

Aira pretends not to notice anything and puts the cardboard box back in its original position.

Since it will be a request from her beloved, she'll treat Ema by putting these on sooner or later.
That might make her sound a little arrogant, but she can't help thinking that way.

However, she's still too embarrassed to put these on herself, so she'll wait until Ema decides to be pushy and invites her.
