Today was Friday, late afternoon as the school bells rang, and signaling the dismissal of classes as students continuously left the school premises to either go back to their sweet home or have a jolly time somewhere with their companions.

Its been almost two weeks after that incident and Lucas was finally discharged from the hospital, although the burns on his body was completely cured thanks to that stinky ointment that he had to endure through a week without any baths at all, his left ribs still need more time to completely heal and must refrain from any physical activities until then.

The University was very considerate enough to excuse him for anything that he missed, although everything seemed to be rushed for him just to keep up with the class discussions, not that he mind though.

At last the end of another tiring school week… All he could think about is going home and sleep, thanks to his current state; he doesn't have to do any household chores for the time being.

FLASHBACK

"The doctor called us that Lucas must not do any kind of physical labor, which includes workout or chores for at least a month. So everyone will be doing their usual chores before until Lucas fully recovers, got it?" Esper announced, as the rest of the girls all reacted negatively to what she said.

"What?!" "No way!" "But!"

"No buts… Vanessa will do the laundry, Gloria will be on dishwashing duty again, Lily will do the sweeping outside the house, and Flannery will do the dusting… Just like old times…" Esper shook her head, and then used her psychic move and gave Vanessa a pile of dirty laundry, Gloria was given the kitchen gloves, the stickbroom was for Lily, and a softbroom and dust pan for Flannery.

"So you'll do the cooking again?"

"Of course I will."

"Just great…"

END OF FLASHBACK

"…Okay, I take that back." Lucas suddenly regretted about it, Esper's cooking wasn't really satisfying, as if you're eating cafeteria food. His smile turned upside down, thinking what kind of food Esper will cook up again, now he feels what her other sisters were feeling.

"HEY!" Suddenly, a familiar voice called out to him from behind as a heavy hand slammed on his shoulder, sending a powerful downward force that immediately sent a painful sensation from his ribs.

"Argh! Dammit Lee! How many times do I have to tell you to stop doing that to me?! That's the fourth time this week! Can't you see that my ribs hurts like hell everytime you do that?!" Lucas suddenly burst out to his pink blob friend.

"You're hurt, and you still managed to say all that? Nah, you're fine…" Lee smiled at him.

"Ugh… never mind." Lucas sighed, being tempted to send a force palm Lee's way but deciding not to, and went ahead of him but Lee quickly followed him.

"C'mon, don't get angry with me man. I'll make it up to you." Lee walked beside him and placed his arm around his shoulder, causing the Lucario to stop and stare at him.

"Make It up to me?"

"Yep. Why don't I treat you to the hot springs this weekend? We have our own private hot springs located at our vacation house near here. It would sure remove that stress you're doing from that extra work you've been having from school right?"

"Uhh… just the two of us?"

"No silly. I'm going to invite the Eevee sisters! The more the merrier right?" Lee made a happy, innocent smile at him while patting his shoulder lightly.
