Eli found himself captivated by the sight of Mia's delicate, white skin, his internal struggle evident in the flicker of his gaze.

"B-Brother?"

"....'Deep breath'...N-Nothing" Eli stammered, a bead of sweat forming on his forehead as he fought to control his surging hormones.

With careful deliberation, he began to scrub Mia's back, the touch of his soapy hands gentle yet charged with an unspoken tension.

Mia's sudden moan sent an unexpected jolt through Eli, and he couldn't ignore the palpable shift in the atmosphere.

"..." Something deep within him twitched in response.

Eli, biting his lips, continued to scrub her back, his mind racing with conflicting thoughts. How did he find himself in this situation, acting as Mia's personal bath attendant?
