“Hey, look, it’s the Vice Commander.”
“Aren’t they an ordinary person…?”
“Right… How can they do that all weekend long?”
“Can you do it? Stay in the room all weekend and keep it up?”
“Is that even possible? Even if you did it, you’d need breaks. How can you go for two whole days?”
“I know, right.”
I overheard such conversations.
I just wanted to buy some hair ties at the convenience store.
But since the Commander said that in front of the Agents, it’s been like this every time.
Whenever I walk in, the Agents start whispering amongst themselves… and it’s mostly that kind of talk.
“………”
“Can you ring up these hair ties, please?”
“Y, yes!”
The small Agent at the counter looked shocked as she responded.
I guess she overheard it too.
It was something I chose to do, but man, it was super embarrassing.
I mean, it was the Commander who said it in front of everyone, not me.
I just told them to speak…
“Ugh…”
“Eek…”
“Ha.”
This is seriously so embarrassing.
Of all times, to bring up that incident right now.
I really didn’t see it coming.
But I mean, why would they say that when they were enjoying themselves all weekend too?
Of course, I made requests to the Commander over the weekend, but the Commander suggested doing more even when I was struggling.
“It’s tough, you know? If you do it from behind, you won’t lose that much stamina,” they said while spewing nonsense about it.
We fought a lot too…
“…Tch.”
“The bag is right here…”
“…Thank you.”
Anyway, after that comment from the Commander, the way the Agents looked at me changed a bit.
A lot.
I’d wonder if I should feel good about this or not, but for now, maybe it’s not… bad?
At the very least, it didn’t feel like they were throwing a fit about me being next to the Commander.
Instead…
– S-Sob… I can’t do it for two days straight…
– Isn’t that addiction, not fun…?
“…Hmph.”
Though it was a misunderstanding, it was somewhat a gain that the Agents who had their eyes on the Commander were now intimidated.
I did spend two days with the Commander, but I definitely didn’t go without resting for a full 48 hours, so the Commander phrased it a little weirdly. That’s how the misunderstanding happened.
Even if it were me, going without rest for 48 hours…
“…I mean, the feeling would be good.”
Not because I’m a weirdo, but objectively speaking.
Objectively, sex with the Commander was enjoyable.
Our bodies seemed to match well… aside from the initial pain from their size, there were no issues.
“………”
Speaking of which, how did I end up thinking about this while just walking down the street?
Of course, it was a situation where I couldn’t help but think about it.
The Agents were talking way too much, so naturally, I couldn’t help but have these thoughts.
It’s not like I’m a perv or anything.
I wasn’t doing anything weird for 48 hours straight or anything like that.

“Hmm…”
I was looking at the notebook with the Commander’s name written on it again.
The characters weren’t that different from what I saw last time.
However, compared to a previous document, there were slight differences.
The part where the Commander’s name was written in the old document could hardly be seen, while the recent writing looked slightly more legible.
“What’s wrong?”
“I’m just wondering.”
“?”
The Commander looked more puzzled at my words, but I couldn’t help it.
What was I supposed to do about the difference between the old and new writing?
The solution was simple.
“Could you write your name for me? Just like last time.”
“That’s not hard. Who’s asking?”
Saying that, the Commander immediately began writing.
They really do seem kind.
I watched as the Commander wrote their name in the notebook just like last time.
For sure…
“Is it better than last time?”
“My handwriting?”
“……..”
“Just kidding. Just a joke.”
“…Then that’s good. Anyway… I think it’s better than before.”
I had no choice but to conclude it was better than before.
Still… It’s not completely clear yet, but I realized the name isn’t super long.
So, did being closer to the Commander help with that?
But all that happened over the weekend was practically just me being stuck to the Commander.
…Is this it?
“Hehe…”
“What’s up?”
“I just had a slightly ridiculous thought.”
It was genuinely just funny.
I couldn’t help but laugh.
From a common-sense perspective, it’s absurd.
The solution to a problem is to have sex with the Commander.
Of course, I’d get closer to the Commander doing that, but calling it a solution wasn’t quite right.
What we did wasn’t about solving any problems; it was fundamentally because I liked the Commander.
“If this keeps up, I think the issues will be resolved eventually. Probably quite soon.”
“Well, that’s a relief.”
“Yes, all thanks to someone.”
“Guess who?”
“I’m not telling you.”
The Commander sent an eagerly expectant gaze my way, so I said that.
Though it was clear that it was all because of the Commander that things got better.
Honestly, I was really grateful.
“But hey, Lindera, why do you have your hair down?”
“…It’s my room.”
The Commander suddenly asked me a random question.
“Isn’t it usually that you let your hair down outside and tie it up when you’re relaxing?”
“I find it more comfortable this way.”
“Really?”
“Yes.”
While others might tie it up when resting, I thought it was better to let my hair down like this while sitting comfortably on the bed.
How do I put it… a sense of liberation?
Not that I was ever restricted, but it felt completely fine to be all relaxed unlike when I was outside working.
Having long hair could be a hassle at times, but I still enjoyed having it down.
“Do you not like it when I have my hair down…?”
Leaning against the Commander’s shoulder.
Looking up at the Commander, I said that.
If the Commander preferred me tied up, I thought about tying it for them.
Since it’s only natural to do something for someone I cared about.
“Not at all. I actually like seeing you like this. You look cuter when you’re resting in your room like this, right?”
“…Is that so?”
“Yeah. It’s nice when your hair is tied up while working, but that’s just for work, right? It’s fine to let it down when you’re resting like now?”
“Yes.”
I couldn’t really split it so distinctly, but that was roughly how it was.
It didn’t really matter that much.
It’s genuinely… just if I want to let it down, I let it down.
There was also the really pure reason of tying it up due to convenience while typing away furiously since long hair might get in the way.
“So when you’re with me, it means you’re comfortable?”
“Um…”
“Or is it just overinterpretation?”
“……..”
Could it be?
Thinking back, the Commander might be right about that.
When I was with anyone else besides the Commander, I almost never let my hair down like this.
“It might be so, considering it’s you, Commander… Yes.”
“……….”
“……….”
The atmosphere between us felt a bit awkward.
Yet, it seemed that the awkward silence wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.
“Say something… please…”
“No… I was just a little surprised…”
“……….”
And so… we fell silent again.
Neither the Commander nor I said anything, as I leaned against their shoulder and they gently stroked my hair.
We didn’t really do anything more.
We just spent time like that, had dinner together in the Commander’s room, and then went to sleep.

“Hehe… Hehe…”
In Midori’s room, which was empty except for her, she was enjoying her hobby while tapping away at the keyboard.
“Hehe… Uhee… Hehe…”
With a silly laugh, she focused on the monitor and then focused some more.
She commented and left likes every time a new post came up.
When someone commented “Why is she here 24/7?” on Midori’s comments, she would report it as networking and even go for an assassination in return.
Midori enjoyed working in the office, but she just couldn’t quit her hobby that she started long before.
“Hehe… This is definitely Dolores! She’s posting about dating all flustered!”
Then, Midori went back to rapidly typing on the keyboard.
As the sound of the keyboard continued…
– Buuuuuung~!
“Uh?”
Midori’s phone rang.
Since it was late at night and her phone rarely rang, she quickly grabbed it from her bed.
“Ugh!?”
She was startled as soon as she checked the text.
– Let’s go on a date this weekend ( ≧ᗜ≦)
“Nana!?”
Nana’s sudden date proposal arrived out of nowhere.
