After enjoying such a hearty meal with Eguchi-sensei, she asked me to let her do the dishes alone when she saw me gearing up to help her once again.
And upon seeing her pleading expression which clearly conveyed that she’d feel ashamed if she let me do that chore, I could only raise the white flag and not push it anymore.
Nonetheless, before doing so, I thanked her for the meal in a straightforward manner. When she moved to the sink, I approached her and hugged her from behind, whispering the words of gratitude directly into her arm. My arms wrapped around her smoothly and settled just above her navel.
I got to feel the weight of her plump bosom but only for a moment. I retreated quickly as soon as I closed my mouth, not daring to tease her further.
Well, she might get pushed over the edge if I did that, and given our current task, she'd certainly feel conflicted.
For now, it's best to only walk around her boundary.
