At night.
"I'm back."
Samui walked wearily into the house.
"Welcome home, you've worked hard," Mabui greeted with a smile, quickly approaching the entrance.
"I left dinner for you, do you want to eat some?"
Samui leaned against the wall, taking off her high heels, and shook her head.
"No, I'll skip it. Perfect for losing weight."
She took a few steps to the living room and collapsed onto the couch.
Mabui said, "You've been coming home late recently."
Samui sighed. "Lord Hokage has been working late, there's nothing I can do."
She looked up at the clock on the wall and asked, "What about Yugito?"
"She's already asleep."
It was already past 9 PM, and many households in the village had already settled for the night.
Samui pouted. "She's carefree, sleeps early."
Mabui just smiled. "I'll go run a bath for you, you should relax."
"Mm..."
Samui flipped onto her side on the couch, lying down.
Her head rested on the soft cushion, and her gaze drifted down to her long legs, tightly wrapped in black stockings.
What came to her mind, however, was the image of Makoto's hands playing with them.
Makoto really liked two parts of her body, one of which was her legs.
Samui was well aware of this, which is why she always made an effort to display her physical advantages whenever Makoto was around.
The sound of running water came from the bathroom.
At this moment, Yugito, dressed in pajamas, came out of her bedroom, yawning and rubbing her sleepy eyes.
She walked to the table and poured herself a glass of water.
"You guys are so loud... Samui's back."
Samui glanced at her. "Did we wake you up?"
Noticing the sharp tone, Yugito chuckled awkwardly and said, "No."
She finished her water and immediately came to Samui's side, using a pleasing tone to say, "You've worked hard all day, let me massage your legs."
Samui didn't hesitate and enjoyed the service.
Looking at Yugito, who was kneeling in front of her, Samui said, "Have you thought about what I told you before?"
Yugito's movement paused, and she stammered, "What... what thing?"
She cautiously looked up, meeting Samui's gaze, and instinctively shrank back.
Samui continued, "I'm planning to tell Lord Hokage to cancel the living allowance the village gives us. Now that Mabui has her own job, and my salary is pretty good each month."
Yugito was stunned. "What... what do you mean?"
Samui kept going, "The village is in a development phase, and as Lord Hokage's secretary, it's my duty to help relieve the village's burden."
"Don't worry, we'll still take care of you. Even if you just eat and drink for free in this house, it's fine."
She emphasized the words "eat and drink for free" with a heavy tone.
Yugito lowered her head and bit her lip.
After a while, Mabui came out. "The hot water's ready. You can take a bath now. I've also left a towel in the bathroom."
Upon hearing this, Samui stood up and walked toward the bedroom, leaving Yugito sitting on the floor alone.
Mabui hurried over and looked at her, saying, "When did you wake up?"
Yugito looked aggrieved, and Mabui, seeing the situation, quickly understood what had happened.
Remembering Samui's earlier reminder, she said, "I'm going to sleep."
"Mabui!" Yugito, seeing this, panicked and quickly grabbed Mabui's clothes from the floor.
Yugito looked at her longingly, but Mabui remained unmoved.
She said, "Yugito, look at the time. Samui only comes back around this time every day. Do you know how hard she works? It's all so that the three of us can live a better life in the future."
"I..."
"Yugito, if you don't want to share the burden, that's fine, but remember, in Konoha, we're the only three who are friends. No matter what, we won't leave you behind."
Mabui shrugged off her hand and returned to her room.
Yugito stood in place, her expression shifting between red and white.
After a long time, she walked to the bathroom door.
"Samui..." she said softly.
"Mm," came a faint voice from inside.
"I've made up my mind... I'm willing."
From the bathroom, Samui's voice came again, "Go to my room and wait. There's a bag in the wardrobe. Put on the clothes inside."
Yugito asked, a bit stammering, "Do... do what?"
"Teach you how to win a man's heart. If you're this reckless, what if you upset Lord Hokage?"
"Oh..."
Yugito went to Samui's bedroom and took the bag from the wardrobe.
Reaching in, she pulled out what seemed to be a headband, but it had two black cat ears on it.
Yugito reached in again, and pulled out a cat tail…
She dumped the contents of the bag, and her face visibly turned bright red.
These... these are clothes for people to wear?!
Images of Samui and Mabui in these extremely embarrassing outfits, posing coquettishly in front of Hyuga Makoto, flashed through her mind.
Did she really have to do the same as them…?
She had been the one to lead the way in this kind of thing in the past, but ever since the Fourth Raikage died, Yugito had completely lost interest in Makoto.
She had been living in a daze every day, unable to even practice due to the seal on her body.
She couldn't integrate into the village the way Mabui did.
The neighbors were always very warm towards Mabui and Samui, because Mabui's gentle nature made it easy for her to get along with others, and Samui worked with the Hokage.
But Yugito… she felt out of place.
Sometimes she wondered if it would be too painful to spend the rest of her life like this.
Thankfully, Samui and Mabui were there to accompany and care for her.
Samui and Mabui managed the house very well, and their living conditions were quite favorable.
Samui's salary was generous, and since Mabui managed the house, her role was mostly just helping with the housework occasionally.
Did she really want to keep doing nothing?
But…
Yugito looked at the cat-ear headband in her hand and tightened her grip on it.
She didn't know how much time passed, but soon, Samui, wrapped in a towel, appeared at the door, her hair covered with a drying cap.
Having just bathed, she looked fresh and beautiful.
She calmly said, "Why haven't you changed yet?"
Yugito blushed and asked, "Does the Hokage... like this kind of style?"
Samui then said, "It depends on who it is. I think you look pretty good in it."
She walked over to the side of the bed, sat down, and took a bottle of red nail polish from the nightstand, starting to touch up her toenails.
"Hurry up and change."
"....."
Seeing that Yugito still hadn't moved, Samui said, "Let me tell you, there are plenty of beautiful women around the Hokage. Who knows, maybe one day he will get tired of me. If you want to see that day, you can leave now."
Yugito struggled internally for a long time, but eventually took a deep breath and began to unbutton her nightgown.
