"Hu'er?" Jiu Lin got in the room. Hu'er seems to be looking for something. Things are all around again.
"Yes?" She looked at him and saw he was holding something. "What's that?"
He raised it a bit. "It's boiled water for you to bathe. Let me put it so the water won't be cold."
"Oh yes. Go on." She nodded and went back to what she was doing.
He went towards the big barrel with half full of water. He poured the boiling water in and tried it with his finger. When he felt it was okay he nodded, "Done." He looks back to se Hu'er sitting on the bed and watching him. "What were you doing earlier?"
"Oh. I was just looking for the things I bought," she answered and stood up. Hu'er couldn't say what it was directly because she wanted to surprise him.
"Did you see it?" He looks at the table full of things that Hu'er found. It looks familiar to him but he didn't know what it is for.
She nodded. "Yes. I did." Hu'er step up to make him look at her instead of the things on the table.
After a while both of them are still not speaking. He felt off and asked her, "...Do you need any help with bathing?"
"No. No, I don't." She shook her head and smiled. Took his hand and guided him outside.
He stopped before stepping out of the door and asked again. "Are you sure?" His eyes are begging her to say that she needs his help to take a bath. However, no matter who pitiful he looks, she is determined to bathe alone.
"I can scrub your back…?" he hesitantly suggested. Yet his eyes are shining as if he made a good suggestion.
She does love letting him scrub her back, but this time wasn't the time for him to scrub her back "I'm fine. You go and take your own bath downstairs."
"You sure?" He gave his all and acted cute at her. His ears are all down, even his tail looks wilted.
But Hu'er pushed him lightly to step out of her room. "Very sure."
"Okay…" he pouted.
"Be good." Hu'er tipped toe and gave him a deep kiss before closing the door.
Jiu Lin was stunned, standing there dumbly. His lips start raising and he chuckles happily.
He went down and did as he was told. Jiu Lin took his bath as fast as he could. He wanted to go up immediately to be with Hu'er.
Jiu Lin finished taking a bath so fast and went upstairs to see Hu'er checking herself out in front of the mirror.
Her pink dress falls down until it touches the floor. A thin white belt hugs her slender waist creating such an attractive curve. Her breast part looks full and round yet completely hidden. The sleeves are so long that her hands can't be seen yet her white fingers will occasionally peak out when she sways. Paired with a fluffy white robe she looks stunning.
Hu'er turned towards him. Jiu Lin is even more stunned now. Her face looks so good. Her eyes are drawn and looks pointy and small. Her eyelids and cheeks have a light pink color making her look so vibrant. Her lips are pink and shiny making him look at it longer and deeper.
He took a deep breath. Hu'er is like a blooming pink flower in the middle of a snow.
This is what she wanted to do. To amaze him. But she controlled her emotions and didn't let him see how happy she was. "What are you in daze for?"
He can't help but ask, "Are those things that you looked for are the ones on your face?"
She nodded, "Yes."
"It's very pretty," he muttered embarrassingly.
"Thank you. Now, come on, help me with my hair." She bekond him to come to her.
He blinked and nodded at her. "Do you want it to be rope?"
Hu'er sat down on the bed and answered, "Yes." before setting all of her hair at the back for Jiu Lin to access it with no problem.
"Little rope or big rope?" he asked again. He took the comb and started making sure no knots were left behind.
She thought about it before deciding on her hair style. "Little rope."
"...All of your hair?" Jiu Lin put the comb away.
She shook her head and pointed at the front, middle forehead where her hair is divided. "Two. Here." She took two thin parts of her hair and let him see it. "Then, combine it at the back."
"Okay." He did what she told him and one by one made her two small parts into a rope. "Should I combine it to the very end?"
"No. Do it half way." After he did it Hu'er taught him how to put her hair that become a rope half hidden behind the hair.
After combing her hair, Jiu Lin stood up and looked at her with satisfaction. "You look really pretty." She giggles.
"Shall we?" He gave her his hand to help her up. With a full smile, Hu'er took his hand and stood up.
"Wait up." Jiu Lin took his hand back, went to her back and fixed her clothes. "Done."
He laid his hand again, "Let's go?"
Placing her hand back. "Let's go."
Jiu Lin unconsciously squeezes her hand. "Hey." She playfully patted his arms.
He chuckles, "Sorry, can't help it."
The two played around as they go out of their house and walk towards the gates.
When they finally got in front of the gate leading to her Daddies' house they both stopped. "I'll miss our alone days." Jiu Lin muttered.
She chuckles and leans her head to him, "I will too. Even so, we will always be together." Looking at his eyes, smiling.
He also couldn't help but smile, "Yes."
She nodded and said, "Let's go?"
Jiu Lin hummed and put his hand on the gate. He took a deep breath and push it open.
