ONCE YOU GOT HOME FROM THE GROCERY STORE, THE DAY WENT ON NORMALLY BUT SOMETHING INSIDE YOU STILL FELT LIKE SOMETHING WASN'T RIGHT. Maybe it was because they have mentioned you being a slut when clearly you and Hitoshi weren't even dating or maybe it was the fact that they said something about your parents. You went to bed that night with a heavy heart and even though Hitoshi and Eri tried their best to cheer you up—and of course it worked a little—you were still down in the dumps the next day. But other than your ever troubling thoughts, it was also a little too hot today.
"Am I the only one dying of the heat?" Hitoshi whined as he was sprawled out on the couch, Eri sitting on the floor in front of the couch while the fan faced both of them directly. "No..." you answered while you walked down the stairs, your face being cooled down by a small toy fan in your hand. "I am also dying of heat..." It was only nine in the morning but the sun was literally burning all of you to toast or maybe even human barbeques. Naomi whose hair is now put in a bun walked in the living room with a tray filled with homemade popsicles.
"Thanks mom!" Eri jumped up and grabbed one for herself and one for Hitoshi. You walked closer to Naomi who had a wide smile on her face as you grabbed one for yourself. "Remember these?" she asked while you rolled your eyes, laughing lightly. "Yeah, I do mom. You always made these at the old apartment..." Naomi gave a warm smile while you turned around, walking over to the chair near the sofa before firmly placing your butt on the cushions.
"Can we go swimming today?" Eri questioned as she tilted her head, biting off the last bits of her popsicle. "Unless you want to go to a public pool with lots of pee, people, and probably male ejaculation juices, sure... I would love to go!" you sarcastically responded which made everyone in the room look at you with concern. You removed the popsicle from your mouth and mouthed a small 'what'. Naomi cleared her throat before awkwardly laughing. "I guess that's... something..."
Standing up, you finished your popsicle before going up the stairs again. "Where are you going, (your name)?" Hitoshi asked while he sat up, wiping the sweat that was dripping on the side of his forehead. "I'm getting the inflatable pool..."
"Since when did we have an inflatable pool?" Naomi showed a confused expression.
"...We just do. Don't ask."
For a whole hour, you, Eri, and Hitoshi managed to make a small pool in your front yard, the sprinklers were turned on and the hose that filled the inflatable pool had just stopped dispensing water. Eri brought in her bath toys along with plenty of rubber ducks before asking you to put her inside. Once that was done, you looked up at the blue sky; staring at the fluffy white clouds before sighing. "Don't you think your father is going to complain about the water bills—?" Naomi smirked as she leaned on the front door's frame, crossing her arms on her chest. "Yes he is. But he can't do anything about it so, he better suck it up, buttercup!"
