The Passionate Daily Life Starting from the Tachibana Family

Chapter 268: A Beautiful Girl’s Feet Don’t Smell!



Ding dong—

Ding dong, ding dong—

"Coming, coming! I swear, if it's you again..."

The sound of hurried footsteps echoed from inside as someone rushed across the floor in slippers.

The door handle turned, and when the door opened, three figures came into view, making Sasaki Fuyumi swallow the rest of his sentence.

Surprised, he blinked and asked:

"Hamazaki-san… Sasaki-san? What are you two doing here?"

Then, noticing Tachibana Yuuka helping support them, he expression turned to confusion.

"Yuka-nee, didn't you go to play basketball? What's going on…?"

As he asked, Sasaki stepped forward to help, lifting Hamazaki Reina, who appeared to be a bit abnormal, onto himself.

The moment she heard the boy's voice through Tachibana Yuuka phone earlier, Reina had a flash of clarity, instantly realizing that the girl she had been playing basketball with was likely Sasaki's sister.

After confirming that she hadn't heard it wrongly, she quickly made up her mind and pretended to have twisted her ankle.

Thus, she "had no choice" but to follow Sasaki's sister to their house.

Now, standing in front of him and hearing his questions, Reina forced a slightly embarrassed but surprised smile.

"Uh, haha… This is your house? Yukina and I were playing basketball, and I accidentally twisted my ankle. So we had to trouble Yuka-senpai to bring us over."

"You twisted your ankle? Is it bad?"

"Not serious, not serious, just a minor sprain. I'll be fine after a little rest."

Sasaki glanced at Hamazaki Reina and Sasaki Yukina, who were hopping around like limping cats.

As he helped Hamazaki into the house, he turned to Yukaz who was standing beside him and asked:

"You knew I was home, so why didn't you call me to come help? Are you an idiot?"

Of course, Yuka wasn't an idiot.

The park wasn't far from their house—just a five-minute walk on a regular day.

But with two injured people to support, that short distance suddenly felt much longer.

She had originally thought about calling and taking them directly to a hospital or clinic.

But no matter what, the two girls refused to go.

With no other choice, Yuka had to bring them back herself.

On the way, she did feel tired, and the idea of asking her idiot brother for help crossed her mind.

But these two girls were so pretty, and during their conversation, she found out they went to the same school as her brother.

If she called him for help and they got close, she'd just be inviting competition for herself.

Yuka didn't want to see her idiot brother getting cozy with other girls, so there was no way she'd let him come to help.

She could manage the extra effort, but she definitely wouldn't let him enjoy being surrounded by beautiful girls.

However, things didn't go quite as she expected.

It seemed like her idiot brother already knew these girls.

"You're the idiot!"

She retorted at him, then casually asked as they entered the house:

"You know them?"

After they stepped inside and closed the door, Sasaki replied to her words, casually: "Yeah, they're in the class next to mine."

They were just ordinary classmates, so he didn't bother explaining much.

After helping Hamazaki to the couch, he stood up to get the first aid kit.

Meanwhile, Yuka went into the kitchen, opened the fridge, and grabbed some ice cubes.

Not seeing Koharu or Otome in the kitchen and with Rinka absent from the living room, she couldn't help but ask:

"Where's Koharu and the others?"

"They went to the convenience store."

Carrying the first aid kit, Sasaki walked out from the inner room.

He approached the couch, knelt down, and placed Sasaki Yukina's foot on his leg.

"This might hurt a little, try to bear it."

Yukina was surprised that Sasaki came to help her with the medicine first, even though both she and Reina were injured at the same time.

But she didn't refuse his offer.

"Huh? Oh, um, thanks."

Seeing the tender interaction between them, Hamazaki Reina, sitting nearby, became a little annoyed.

"Hey, hey! I twisted my ankle too, why aren't you helping me first?

We knew each other first, you traitor!"

Sasaki rolled his eyes at her before focusing back on Yukina as he carefully removed her shoe.

"Don't make a fuss if you didn't actually twist your ankle. Yukina looks like she's in real pain."

"Haha, so you figured it out, huh?" Reina scratched her head sheepishly, sneaking a glance at Tachibana Yuka, who was busy tying up the ice pack in the kitchen.

"Who twists their ankle and still smiles so brightly? Even for someone as carefree as you, that's a bit much."

Sasaki spoke, then turned his attention to Yukina, who, in her discomfort, looked a little more delicate than usual.

"I'm going to take off your sock now~"

Yukina wasn't usually shy or introverted, but it was her first time having a guy hold her foot.

Not to mention, the way Sasaki asked for permission before removing her sock made her feel strangely embarrassed, as if he were undressing her.

That unexplainable feeling of awkwardness showed on her face, causing a soft blush, like the bloom of cherry blossoms, to spread across her pale, delicate cheeks.

To avoid showing her flushed expression, Yukina turned her head away and responded softly.

"Mm-hmm~"

"..."

Seeing her friend tilting her head, with her soft hair falling naturally to cover her face, and her shy look as if letting others do whatever they want, Hamasaki Reina raised her eyebrows and said helplessly:

"Are you two flirting or applying medicine?"

Knowing that Reina had a thing for Sasaki, Sasaki Yukina turned her head back, teasing her with a playful smile.

"What's wrong, Reina? Are you jealous?"

"Tsk, annoying~"

Their playful exchange made it clear that Reina had feelings for Sasaki, but Sasaki, keeping his smile, didn't show any particular reaction.

He held Yukina's slender calf, feeling the smooth, jade-like softness beneath his fingers.

Slowly, he slid his index finger into the knee-high sock, along her graceful leg.

The touch of her warm, soft skin against his slightly cool fingertips gave Yukina an unfamiliar, tingling sensation.

Her face flushed even more, and she bit her lip, her teasing of Reina now cut short by the sudden rush of embarrassment.

Hamazaki Reina, now lacking a conversation partner, shifted her gaze toward Sasaki as he continued to remove Yukina's sock.

As Yukina's childhood friend, Reina had seen her take off her socks hundreds of times after all, they had even slept together often.

But…

Sasaki's fingers were long, pale, and gracefully structured.

His slender fingers gently peeled off the delicate black sock, revealing the girl's smooth, round, marble-like calf beneath.

His movements were so careful and tender, it seemed less like he was removing a sock and more like he was unwrapping a fragile, exquisite gift.

This thought popped into Reina's head, and for a moment, a glint of realization flashed in her eyes as she watched him.

He likes legs.

While most guys are drawn to a girl's face or chest, there are some who prefer legs or butts.

A few even have a thing for hands, feet, or other unusual parts of the body.

It's normal, nothing strange about it.

With that thought, Reina shifted her attention to her own legs.

Unaware that the girl beside him was speculating about his preferences, Sasaki placed the sock neatly on top of Yukina's shoe and then carefully held her small foot in his hands.

Her foot was pale and delicate, just about the size of his palm, and it felt slightly damp with sweat.

Considering they had just been playing basketball, the sweat wasn't surprising.

But before he had time to react, Yukina, realizing that her foot was sweaty, curled her toes in embarrassment.

Her five pink toes were as slender and cute as strawberry jelly candies..well that's it.

Because of the owner's shyness, they were arranged together obediently.

Sasaki was not too perverted, however, he just had a special liking for cute things, so after noticing Sasaki Yukina's actions, he couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Because Sasaki was squatting and her feet were held in his hands, the distance between them was naturally very close.

But, miraculously, the boy didn't smell any odor on her feet at all.

It was a hot day, and she played ball outside for so long that she was sweating.

Her feet should have a little bit of sweat and acid smell...

But it didn't…

Just like the sweat stains on her feet were just ordinary water...

Why is this?

Although he really wanted to get closer to make sure her feet really had no odor, but Sasaki was afraid that the two of them would think he was a pervert.

So, he hesitated for a moment, and decided to give up.

Being curious about everything will only harm him.

Collecting his thoughts, Sasaki looked at the foot in his hand, judging the extent of her sprain.

With the bright light in the living room, he did not find any bruises or swelling on Sasaki Yukina's feet.

There was just some abnormal redness around the ankle meridians.

Because he often gives massages to Yukiha, Aunt Kyouka and others.

Sasaki had watched many, many videos about massage on the Internet.

After a quick assessment, he thought that she must have been injured before and was now stimulated again.

Holding her soft and wrinkle-free soles, he asked softly:

"Is this a recurrence of an old injury? Have you been injured before?"

Even though she was shy in her heart, she was a gyaru girl who used to be a fashion model, so Yukiha would not easily show her shyness in front of others.

After adjusting her mindset a little, she nodded: "Yeah, you noticed that. I was indeed injured in junior high school, and I have been doing rehabilitation exercises since then."

"I thought I was almost well enough to play ball, but I didn't expect I still couldn't jump."

"If you are injured, take good care of yourself."

After giving the instructions, Sasaki poured some of the medicine onto her ankle.

The cool but not irritating liquid suddenly touched her skin, causing Yukina Sasaki, who was sitting on the sofa, to tense up a little.

"Relax~."

Noticing her change, Sasaki said a word of comfort and then began to massage her according to the technique of releasing the medicinal power.

"Hmm~"

Sasaki Yukina responded softly, feeling the cold medicine gradually warming up under his warm palms, her breathing became heavier with some discomfort.

Although she was not the shy type, this level of close contact was still a bit too stimulating for a young girl like her.

To be honest, this kind of stimulation was even more powerful than watching movies by herself in bed at night.

The collision of flesh against flesh becomes boring after watching it too much.

However, the warmth that envelops the body and mind is what stimulates the soul the most.

Suddenly feeling like if she didn't do or say something, she was bound to feel weird, the girl took a deep breath and tried to find a topic to talk about.

"Seriously, Sasaki, where did you learn your massage skills? Not bad~"

Different from Sasaki Yukina's itchy heart that feels like a cat scratching.

Sasaki entered a state of concentration and didn't think too much about it.

While answering, he slightly increased the force of the massage along the meridians.

"My aunt works very hard.

When she comes home, I always give her a massage. Well, I am self-taught. Practice makes perfect."

"Is the strength appropriate now? How does it feel?"

"It hurts a little but when you press it, it feels comfortable and painful, a little swollen and hot."

"You press it so strangely~"

Sasaki Yukina couldn't help but squeeze her thighs together as she bit her pale pink lips, finally voicing her feelings.

"Just bear with it a little longer."

After massaging for another two or three minutes, Sasaki was about to let go of her foot when he suddenly realized how unusually quiet it had become.

Reina wasn't speaking, and Sister Yuka...?

His eyes widened in realization as he quickly turned his head toward the kitchen, only to see Yuka standing next to the armchair, expressionless, staring directly at him.

"....."

This was one of those moments where panicking would only make things worse.

If he freaked out, everyone would be plunged into unbearable awkwardness.

Just play dumb.

With that in mind, Sasaki casually placed Yukina's foot down and stood up as if nothing had happened.

Then reached for the ice pack Yuka was holding and said:

"Yuka-nee, you're here, so just give the ice pack to Reina."

Watching her idiot brother act so oblivious made Tachibana Yuka furious.

He had never massaged her feet, but here he was, giving his "first time" to someone else!

What an idiot!

Her chest heaved with anger beneath her sports jersey as she took a deep breath but finally chose not to embarrass him in front of his classmates.

She would deal with him later tonight!

Ignoring her silent fury, Sasaki handed the ice pack to Reina, who, despite not actually being hurt, pretended to apply it to her foot and asked:

"How are you guys planning to get home later? Should I call you a cab?"

Glancing at Tachibana Yuka and relieved that her intimidating aura had diminished, Reina sighed with relief and playfully placed the ice pack on her foot before responding,

"No need, no need. Yukina rents a place next door. We'll head over there after this."

"Next door?"

Sasaki remembered that the house next door had once belonged to an elderly woman, but she had since moved to the countryside, leaving the property with a rental agency.

Now hearing that Yukina was living there, he looked at her in surprise.

"So, we're neighbors now?"

"Yeah, looks like we'll be seeing a lot of each other from now on~."

Glancing down at Reina, who was still pretending to ice her foot, Sasaki smiled and nodded.

"Got it."

"When are you moving in?"

"Probably this Sunday, if everything goes as planned."

"Do you need help moving?"

"No need. Between me, Reina, and Ruri, we don't have much luggage, so it won't be any trouble for us."

Noticing Yuka's sour expression, there was no way Yukina was going to let Sasaki help with the move.
