Chapter 116: Confused
As if it were a law of today's world, it was inevitable that a new day would arrive and everything would begin to move once again, surely it would be a nice touch to add a few more details so that a more vivid image of what a new day brought would be formed, but at this moment, we should focus directly on the room that Shizune used in Rena's apartment, since right now in it was a beautiful woman who had just woken up and who was covering her face with her hands while giving light turns in bed.
"W-What did I do?" The reason for that question was precisely because all the memories of the previous night had come to Shizune's mind… And it was not difficult to guess that she was now experiencing quite a lot of embarrassment.
Last night she had actually given herself enough time to not just do it once since those feelings were still overwhelming her, and when she was satisfied, she had moved as quickly as she could to clean up the mess she had made, both in the room as in herself, and she didn't even take the time to return to the "celebration" since she was too busy with it. When she thought she was done, her body gave way and she fell directly into bed, prey to sleep and fatigue, which brings us to the current situation.
Shizune kept recapping everything that had happened and what she had done, and that only made her shame grow, but she suddenly felt a sense of worry… Or, rather, worry for different reasons. First of all, she took her cell phone and quickly went to the messages section, specifically where Kurono's contact was, and what she found... Well, we could say that the blush that was forming on her was for different reasons, although mainly it was because of the message that Kurono had sent her.
"You don't need to delete them." It was a simple message, but it was enough to make it clear to Shizune that Kurono had already seen everything, which continued to embarrass her. She didn't respond to the message since she didn't think it was necessary, and in the end, she didn't actually delete anything and just put it aside and then got out of bed to left the room.
Her second concern was that she did not know what had happened to Kazumi and Akira after she was busy with other things, so she went to the living room and found a somewhat peculiar scene. Throughout the place you could see beer cans that were possibly empty while on the table there was an equally empty sake bottle, it was practically a disaster since the furniture was somewhat moved around as well and some decorations were thrown away as well, Shizune felt like as if a tornado had destroyed everything and at the same time it told her that it would take some time to fix the place, but the main thing and what calmed her down a little was that she saw Akira's figure sleeping peacefully on the couch while she had a blanket covering her.
Looking at the time, Shizune would try to wake her up at that moment, but her attention was suddenly taken by her cell phone once again as a new message seemed to have reached it.
"I'm sorry I'm not there right now, but I wasn't planning on staying all night either… I think things got a little crazy and I don't remember most of it. I had to run to get to the gym, also apologize for the mess that was left, I will make it up to you in the future. Give my regards to Rena-chan and Akira-san, and thank you for the occasion, it was really fun." Shizune carefully read the message belonging to Kazumi, which clarified why she was not there, but also left Shizune calmer as she knew that she was fine, so she only sent a simple message in response and also thanked her for being able to be with them. Shizune was going to put his cell phone away once again, but just after sending the message, the notification of a new one had arrived. "If you want to do it again, don't forget to invite me, haha. By the way, you disappeared last night, how much did you and Kurono talk about? Was it something… Private?"
Even though it was a message, Shizune could perfectly sense Kazumi's joking tone in it. However, that itself had caused embarrassing memories to reappear in her mind and she had to shake her head a little in a futile attempt to push them away.
She was going to tell her that they had only talked and that in the end, she fell asleep, but the sound of footsteps coming down the stairs made her distracted once again.
"Yawn… Good morning, Mom." Rena had just woken up too and was kind of worried about what she had been through, just like Shizune. "Wow, this place really is a disaster."
"Sigh... Good morning, I'll go get something to start cleaning everything, can you wake up Akira-chan?" Shizune was already fully awake after what had happened, so she already wanted to get to work and clean up the traces of the celebration.
Rena agreed and it took a while for Shizune to return with some garbage bags among other things, and she was met with the scene of Akira sitting on the couch while Rena gave her a glass full of water.
"How are you feeling Akira-nee?" Rena was quick to ask about Akira's condition since she didn't look well at all.
"I feel like my head is going to explode." Akira knew that she had possibly overdone the drinking last night, although, like everyone else, she had enjoyed the occasion quite a bit, so she couldn't complain too much. "Good morning, Nee-san. Need help?"
"Don't worry, Akira-chan. Actually, I think you better go take a shower while me and Rena tidy up the place a little, it must be a little difficult for you with how you feel." Rena also said something similar, and although Akira felt a little guilty, it was true that her condition left her a little limited, so she continued with the suggestion and said goodbye to go take care of herself a little.
"I think we have some medications if needed, what exactly happened after I went to sleep?" Rena was already worrying about Akira's condition, although it should be pretty obvious who the culprit was that had left her in that state.
"I honestly wouldn't know what to tell you since I also feel exhausted quickly, but if she's just having a hangover, it shouldn't be something so worrying, a little rest will be fine for her." Shizune was already moving around the place while fixing the scene, Rena also repeated the same thing, although she was aware of her pregnancy and did not try too hard while the two of them simply chatted, although, from that talk, a question came out from Rena... A somewhat peculiar one.
"I guess it's all a mystery then, but I'm still curious. It seems like Akira-nee went through a lot, her makeup is a mess, especially her lipstick... But she was wearing makeup last night?" And that was a question that even Shizune couldn't answer.
