Some Relaxation!

"It's like they're melting all my stress away." Aoi sighed in relief as the masseuse worked on her back, she was never pampered before but now she was loving it.

The other girls were getting massages at well, some had one in the past but most were new and were really enjoying it.

Fuyumi was one of the girls who never had a massage.

Although this couldn't compare to her time with Ethan... Fuyumi blushed, she missed her master but she loved that he would go far to spoil them.

She thought of her life before being bought and wondered what it would've been like if she wasn't... Maybe it would've been the same as always? Trying to put her family back together?

She closed her eyes, trying not to think too much of it.

After the massage, half of the girls went to the resort room while the other half went to the bar to get some drinks.

Selena was counting the girls as they were in the elevator. "Harley, Rebecca, Fuyumi, Meru, Ty Lee and Kushina, okay head count done! Everyone's here. Make sure you don't get lost or taken." Selena clapped.

The elevator doors opened and the girls stepped out, the bar was not full but there were some people lingering around.

Fuyumi adjusted her robe, she felt a bit nervous, she made her way to the bar and sat down on a stool.

"Fuyumi?" Fuyumi's eyes widened. "Shoto?"

She looked to her left and yes, it was her younger brother Shoto... But not exactly her brother...

"Hmm... I figured it would see someone familiar but I didn't think I'd see you here." Shoto commented as he came closer. "Is there anything I can get you?" He asked with his normal, neutral face.

Oh she missed it.

"Strawberry milkshake?" Fuyumi asked. "What are you doing here?"

Shoto turned and got what was needed and started to make her milkshake. "Working." He answered as if it was obvious.

"Right... I didn't think I'd see you." Fuyumi wanted to reach out to him.

"Me neither... Are you here with your owner?" Shoto asked as he continued to make her shake.

"His sister, my master is busy." Fuyumi looked sad at that fact.

"... Is he hurting you?" Shoto asked, a frown forming on his face. Something she hasn't seen before, mostly scowls of rage because of their father.

"No no! He's very kind and sweet." Fuyumi assured him.

"... And generous if he allowed you to come here." Shoto hummed as he finished making her drink and placed it in front of her.

"Yeah... He really is." Fuyumi took her milkshake and took a sip. It was really good.

"Shoto, are you happy working here?" Fuyumi couldn't help but ask.

"Hmmm." Shoto closed his eyes to think about it and then smiled. "Yes actually, sometimes there are customers who aren't as nice as they should be, but there are people who like to talk and I like to listen, I have my own problems but after hearing others, sometimes I wonder about what I want, what I really want, I was brought here to bartend because of my ice and fire quirk."

Fuyumi nodded, it made sense in a way.

"I wanted to use my ice only to be a hero to spite my father but... Now I'm spiting him by not being a hero and being something I enjoy doing. So... Yes I am happy." Shoto smiled softly.

"I'm so happy to hear." Fuyumi smiled back.

"... Are those your friends?" Shoto looked behind her.

She feared to look back. "... What are they doing?" She asked softly.

"Harley Quinn and Rebecca are having a drinking contest with very strong liquor from the cyberpunk world... Now they're on the table."

"... I don't know them." Fuyumi looked embarrassed.

"... I find that hard to believe sis." Shoto smiled a bit teasingly.

She drank her shake, wanting the sweetness to distract her from the embarrassment and the shouts of Harley and Rebecca.

At least she saw her brother and he was happy here.

Wonder what Ethan was up to..?
