After placing our belongings in our room, we made our way toward the hot springs.
I thought about bringing a towel, but we were told that there were towels available in the large bath, free for guests to use.
Apparently, there really were places like this where you could use as many towels as you wanted. The thought made me smile; if I were really a grade schooler, I'd probably be playing with the towels. Sure enough, the changing room had a whole stack of them.
Being mid-afternoon, there were no other guests around, so there was no one to observe my father and Renji-san's tough, scarred bodies.
These two stand out in any bathhouse; their bodies aren't covered in tattoos, but the scars are more than enough to draw attention. If I were back in my old life and saw two intimidating guys like them entering the bath, I'd probably make a quick exit.
Noticing my gaze, my father tilted his head, puzzled.
"Something on your mind, Itsuki?"
