The sun rose the next day and
The man wakes up early in the morning
I went deep into the mountains
The woman also saw the man going into the mountains, but
I didn't go out of my way to ask where he was going.
Since their relationship was just a formality anyway.
"hey_"
The man saw a person taking a walk in the mountains
called out
But that person didn't really seem like a human either.
I don't really have a reason, but that's how it seemed.
“What’s up? You’re coming to see me.”
He was the god of this mountain.
And the reason the man became trapped in this mountain, too
It was a mountain god.
I have something to tell you.
"It seems quite important?"
Well, you could say that.
"say it"
I've married a woman
"Really? Congratulations. You'll become human soon."
What? The reaction is pretty bad.
I thought you were going to overreact.
"Well, you'll find out later."
The man was puzzled by the mountain god's reaction, which was lukewarmer than expected, but
He went back without saying much.
"fool"
The man looked around the mountain for a long time.
It seemed as though he was checking to see if there were any dangerous beasts.
If a woman dies
Because I can't become human
The man surveyed the mountain for quite a while, then
I turned toward the cabin.
The man was about to enter the cabin
I stopped in my tracks.
Mmm, the scent is nice.
The man leaned against the pillar for quite a while
I looked at the woman.
I just stared at it without any emotion.
Later, if a woman asks a man why he looked at her like that back then
The man often answers like this.
Because it’s pretty
But the man at that time was just
Really just
I just stared
Without thinking
The woman enjoyed the scent of the flowers for quite a while, then
He saw the man staring at him.
To the woman to the man
“Why are you staring at me like that?”
He said
The man [at]
"just"
... answered.
The woman enjoyed the scent of the flowers again, asking why it was so bland.
The man approached the woman.
Oh, I had something to ask you when you came.
"what"
“What kind of flower is this?”
Small purple flowers at the woman's fingertips
They were huddled together.
Why are you asking me that?
The woman frowned at the man's curt reply.
"Wait, didn't you say you've lived here for a long time?"
So I asked because I thought I knew why.
The woman said, "It's my fault for asking you."
I tried to turn around and
The man spoke in a low voice
"Iris"
"what?"
This flower is called an iris
What? You were going to tell me anyway.
"Is it okay to talk to your wife like that?"
It’s not like I took you as my wife because of my feelings.
Even if there are no feelings between us
You have to keep your promises.
When I said that
The woman saw the man's image.
This man
It's quite grimy, I wonder when it was last washed.
Please wash up.
When was the last time you washed up?
"...I don't know"
As a woman who values cleanliness
It was nothing short of a shock.
This is also something that must be followed as a basic rule.
I really can't take this anymore, I'll wash up today.
The woman grabbed the man's arm and dragged him into the bathroom.
Now, wash up.
I'm leaving.
After telling the man to wash up, the woman left the bathroom.
I turned around.
However, the man grabbed the woman and made her look at him, and
The woman's eyes widened.
“Why? Is something wrong?”
“..”
It's okay, tell me.
The man hesitated for a long time, then
He soon opened his mouth.
“How do I use this?”
There was shampoo and conditioner at the man's fingertips.
After all, to a man who has lived in a deep forest for thousands of years
Shampoo and conditioner were unfamiliar items.
“Ah... haven’t you ever used this?”
The man kept his mouth tightly shut and nodded.
Really? Then I'll wash your hair.
Sit here.
The woman seated the man on a small chair and
I made him lean his back against the bathtub.
The woman turned on the shower water.
The man flinched, perhaps because the water was cold.
Oh, sorry, I didn't even adjust the water temperature.
After the woman confirmed that the water had warmed up
I started washing the man's hair.
The man's expression seemed much more relaxed.
The woman felt
I didn't realize it until just a moment ago because it was covered in dust.
The man's hair was very good.
It's probably because I've never bleached or permed my hair.
On the other hand, women engage in entertainment activities
My hair was in very bad condition because I bleached and permed it constantly.
Because the woman was touching her nice hair for the first time in a long while
I felt good without even realizing it.
The woman washed the man's hair completely.
I handed the man the body wash.
You can do this too.
Just squeeze it out little by little and let it clump on your body.
"okay"
The woman who heard the man's answer
I came out of the bathroom.
I wonder if about ten minutes had passed.
The bathroom door opened and
Along with the steam billowing out the door
A man with water dripping from his head came out.
Come here
I'll dry your hair.
Originally, even the way to dry a man's hair
She was a woman who tried to teach him and tell him to do it himself, but
The woman who wanted to touch the man's hair once again
He said he would dry my hair.
Sit here
The woman, while sitting on the sofa, told the man to sit under the sofa, and
As the man sat down, he started drying his hair.
The man's soft hair
He tickled the woman's hand.
You're so lucky
"why"
Because my hair is nice
"Don't you like it?"
"huh"
The man said nothing more after that.
The woman didn't really say anything either.
(Some hints came out today..)
