​30 minutes later in Jay's Room...
​Jay was propped up in bed, accepting the care being lavished upon him.​【OK, this is unexpected.】​Iris lifted a spoonful of broth to his lips.​「OK, Jay, open wide.」​「A'ight. ...Opens his mouth then Iris spoon fed him... 【Not gon' lie, it's good.】」​「So, how does it taste?」​「...Swallows... It's really good.」​「...Giggles... Thank you.」​「You know I can feed myself, right?」​「Oh, you want me to stop?」​「No.」​「...Smiles at him... I thought so.」​Lisa, sitting by the bed, gave him a gentle shoulder massage.​「Is this OK?」​「Yah. Ever since I start blacksmithin', I can finally relate to y'all shoulder struggle.」​Lisa blushed, surprised by the direct observation.​「Wh-wh-what do you mean by that?」​「Well, c'mon now, Lisa, not even you are that naive.」Jay said teasingly. ​Lisa's face turned scarlet as the implication hit her.​「Oh, it was that?」​「...Chuckles... Yep.」​Rina entered the room, interrupting the intimate moment.​「Iris, the bath has been prepared.」​「...Confused... A bath? ...Coughs...」​「Yep, a bath. We can't have you sweaty the whole day, now can we?」 Iris replied.​「...Hmm... I guess not.」He slowly stood up.​「OK, then go with Rina. We'll join you in a bit.」​「What?」Jay asked a bit perplexed.​Rina immediately linked arms with him, not taking no for an answer, and led him out.​​In The Bath...
​Jay slowly lowered himself into the water, surrounded by the women.​【The water is the right temperature, buh the temptation I'm facin' now is not relaxin' me at all.】 「So, why are all of you in here?」​「Well, it's better in groups.」 Liani said, attempting to sound casual.​「I understand that's a thing women love to do, buh I kinda feel outta place here.」​「There's no need to be shy.」 Liani teased.​「...Blank expression... I never said I'm shy, though.」​Saalin shifted uncomfortably.​「What do you mean by that?」​「Just that y'all be surprised how much self-restraint it takes just to sit here and do nothing.」 Jay confessed honestly.​Rina, now accustomed to her new role, took the comment in stride but still felt the tension.​「Oh, that's right. Even though you're some of our husband, you're still a man. 【Maybe if we— No, Rina, you can't think like that.】」​Iris sighed, deciding to end the uncomfortable avoidance.​「Honestly, Jay, you can't tell me that you didn't notice.」​「Oh, I did, buh preferred to stay quiet.」​「Huh? You know I was referrin' to Saalin and Liani!」 Iris clarified.​Jay's logic was brutal and direct.​「Yah, I did. I mean, on our trip to Rina's home country, they weren't cool with being nude while I was around, buh now they are. One plus one does equal two still, right?」​Liani's jaw dropped.​【Wow, Iris was right.】 「If that's the case, then why didn't you say something?!」
