MELODY OF LOVE: Arrived Marriage
Okinawa 21: Ganbatte
Onsen and lodging.
At 11:00 p.m., Melody et al decided to spend the night in a private Onsen plus Neil and Ayumi's family-owned lodging.
Neil said, this free night stay as a sign of gratitude for agreeing to the proposal for cooperation on the construction of five-star hotels in Hokkaido area. Yudha received it well considering the Tachibana family were Kazehaya's longtime trusted business associates. It is a form of appreciation.
The onsen equipped with the inn was very beautiful. Privy. So, the place is equipped with a small house of traditional Japanese style with onsen/private hot spring as facilities.
Like traditional houses in general, each house is equipped with a spacious yard with a warm water pool. There is a high fence barrier for the impression of privacy. Flowers and various ornamental plants also add to the beauty of the place.
Melody and Yudha who are a couple must stay at the same place. Even specifically for the two of them, they can VIP class service. Nao chooses a room with Sai and Neil. Shuhei, Alvin, and Yura have their own rooms, though not as big as Melody and Yudha's. Ayumi and Mia are in the same room.
After entering their 'house', Melody and Yudha remained silent to each other. Yudha had already slipped into the toilet. Melody scanned every corner of the mini 'house' room.
There's only one room.
Yeah, one room. Melody looks at the fuuton/folding mattress in the room. There is a short dining table with a wide variety of dishes and drinks on it. Eating lesehan?
One box.
The room was only a box but had a design like a house. Sliding windows and doors are also available. The toilet is outside the room. Right in the back, near the hot tub.
"You don't want to take a shower?" Ask Yudha. Since this afternoon, Yudha finally opened her voice as well.
"Ha-just there's a hot pool outside of that, right?"
Melody was quite surprised because Yudha who had been upset this morning wanted to talk to her again.
"Eh."
"..."
Yudha knew what Melody meant."You can face north, and I'll go south."
The short conversation felt a bit stiff. Awkward for things they don't really understand.
According to Yudha's command, they both bathed together. Melody believed that Yudha would never peek at her shower.

.
He slowly put his feet into the warm water. He was at the end of the pool and facing north, turning his back to Yudha at the south end of the pool.
The smoke of warm water at night is quite successful in hiding the body without their clothes.
Soaking in hot water in summer is a little unusual, it should be done in winter, but because it is at night, it feels comfortable too. The warm water seemed to propel a tired and achy body.
While soaking, Melody heard a gurgle of water from the south. He knew that even if he did not see it, Yudha had finished cleaning herself. That way, he could be a little free in this pond because Yudha returned to his room.
He wanted to relax in this pool.
.
.
.
Half an hour later.. Melody felt dizzy from taking too long to soak. It was time to get out of the pool. He also cleaned himself with soap.
"Ahhh, kimochi. My fatigue is reduced. But why am I so dizzy like this?" Melody.
Kimochi: Delicious.
Melody was going back to her room. However, when he got up, the dizziness in his head made him lose his balance, he then fell in the shallow pool.
The sound of water from the fall of Melody was quite loud and reached Yudha's ears.
Out of worry, Yudha thoughtlessly ran outside and checked what was happening. He saw Melody sitting in the pool holding her head.
Yudha immediately grabbed a large towel near the pond and used it to cover Melody's body. He then lifted Melody's body from the water and brought her into their room.
.
.
.
In the room..
"You okay?" Ask Yudha. His voice sounds much better. There was no upset tone in his intonation.
Yudha who Melody knew is back.
"Hm, just a little dizzy."
Melody replied weakly.
"Moment.."
Baka: Stupid.
Gomen: Sorry.
In a quick motion, Yudha confirmed the location of Melody's towel. He did not want to be taking advantage of the naked Melody. Although the towel used is quite large, but can not also cover perfectly. The towel was even wet from the pool water.
"I'll buy you a cold drink, you change your clothes. There are traditional clothes for women. You can wear it for a while."
Yudha's Order.
Melody just nodded. He was too upset to think of anything else.
.
.
.
After returning from buying a cold drink, Yudha then offered the drink to Melody. Guava flavor, Melody's favorite. Melody looks happy to receive it.
They then ate the dishes that had been provided by the inn.
"Yudha, thank you for helping me out."
"Eh."
"Bo-can I hold your hand?"
Ask Melody
Yudha raised her eyebrows. He put down his chopsticks and extended his hand.
Melody took something from the side. He tied it to Yudha's hand.
"What'sthis? A bracelet?"
Melody nodded. "Today I made it, taught uncle at the festival. Said uncle, the thread used to make the bracelet was a sacred thread from the temple. I hope the bracelet protects you."
"Hm, fetish bracelet, huh?"
"Sse-like that. Sorry, maybe it's not much."
"I thought you'd buy me a head massage because you'd see me in office overtime a lot. But thank you."
"He? I-I should be more sensitive to your wishes, I'll buy me that thing tomorrow."
Yudha smiled. "No, I'm just kidding. Let's continue eating! I'm so hungry"
They continue the dinner—dinner late at night.
Melody drank a few sips of water that was on the dining table. To be honest, he didn't really like the taste of the drink. It was like the sake that he drank when he married Yudha back then.
The drink made him dizzy, but his dizziness was different from what he felt in the pool of warm water earlier. It feels a lot hotter.
Sake: A traditional Japanese drink.
Yudha snatched Melody's mini-glass. "It's sake, you can get drunk if you overdo it!"
"I'm hot, Yudha. It's so hot." Melody started whining.
Yudha remembered that Melody couldn't stand alcohol. The drink he gave me had already been consumed by Melody. Stupidly, he didn't buy more. He went and wanted to buy Melody another drink. But when he opened the door, the door of the room was reluctant to open.
"Can't open?" Mumbled Yudha.
"Yudha, hot sekalihh. Panassh." Melody's whining sounded awkward in Yudha's ears.
The sound was getting more strange. He even got creeped out because of it.
Yudha tries to ignore his strange thoughts, he then looks for an AC remote, but nowhere. AC room is not to be blamed. He opened the window, but it didn't help.
The little window was just like ventilation.
"Yudha, I got a text from mom on your phone like this, you know what that means?"
Yudha then approached Melody and took her phone. Although Melody did not open the message, but the short message can be read even though it does not have to open the message menu.
From: Mikan's mother
'Yudha-chan, Melody-chan, ganbatte."
.
Ganbatte: Passion.
