Ch.6 Together with Omanju. But Something's Strange About the Tip

"Is the hot water okay?"

"Kyu... Kyui..."

"Is that so. If it gets too hot, you can move out."

Even if it's a monster, this one is still just a baby.

Because, to begin with, I don't really know what kind of animal it's supposed to resemble.

So, I figured I'd just treat it the same way I treat dogs and cats, and I filled a bathtub with lukewarm water, rinsed it off, and let it soak in the water.

It doesn't seem like It's afraid of water, so It should be fine.

Cats and the like will scratch you, but this one doesn't even have claws.

"......!!!"

"Mou, what is it? Uriuri."

"......! ......!!!"

Even when I playfully poke Its face, It still looks at me with such intense eyes.

...Well, I've gotten used to it by now, so it doesn't really matter.

In the end, it seems I don't smell bad or anything like that.

"...Phew...But, Okaa-san's really energetic today..."

Splash.

"Phew..."

"......!? ......??"

There was no particular dirt in the bathtub, and the cover, which Is normally not there, is there as if it's normal.

...I can't believe she even cleaned the bathroom.

Normally, she'd only go as far as draining the water.

"I wonder why she's so energetic... Maybe the new medicine is starting to work..."

I take a quick look and saw... Omanju lying on its back in the bathtub, staring intently at me.

While floating in the bathtub filled with water...even when I turn Its back around, It turns Its head and stares intently at me.

...Honestly, it's kind of scary.

"...Do I really smell that bad?"

"Kyu!? Kyuikyuikyui!"

"Haha, That's not it? I hope so."

It made me laugh when it chirped like it was saying, "No, no!"

Right? I don't smell bad, right?

Even Mitsumiya-san said to me, "Yuzuki-senpai, you're a guy, but you don't smell!" even when I was sweating in the summer.

The girls at school, the older ladies, and the part-time workers have never told me I smell bad.

Women are extremely sensitive to smells, so if a man smells bad, they'll tell you directly that he smells bad, precisely because they won't see him as a potential romantic partner.

If that's not the case, then it should be fine.

...I've been told by some guys that I smell bad though, so I'm still worried that maybe I do.

But when I ask Okaa-san, my teachers, and my friends who never bullied me, they all say I don't smell bad, so I'll just believe that I don't smell bad.

Okaa-san and others say things like, "It actually smells nice," but I interpret that as them being polite and saying, "It doesn't smell that bad."

Well... I do have body odor, you know?

I'm a human being too, after all.

But, if I had to choose, I do think It smells good... Well, it's my own body odor, so it's not like I'm built to faint from my own body odor.

"Sniff sniff... Maybe I should start using deodorant properly..."

I gently stroked my shoulder.

...My shoulders are so sloped that my clothes slip down easily and look sloppy, I get stiff shoulders easily, and I tend to be mistaken for a girl, so there's nothing good about them.

When I see my hair sticking to my shoulders like that, I really think I need to get it cut soon.

"I need to get a haircut... and then save up more money from my part-time job, eat some meat, and get a more manly physique..."

"!?"

That's right, I need to work hard and become more manly.

No matter how much I train, I can't build muscle. In fact, I only gain fat, which is a sad state of affairs. I'm not growing taller, and I can't grow a beard either.

...My male parts down there were only the size of a primary school student's, and there was no hair growing around them, so changing clothes for swimming lessons and things like that in middle school was embarrassing.

I didn't get to see others' because I'm not allowes to change clothes with the boys during middle school, but...the size difference at that point was...yeah.

I'm not very confident...as a man.

"...I need to stop. It's the day Okaa-san is healthy and I got to see Omanju. I have to be positive."

I splash out of the bathtub, and using the bath bucket... I gently move the still wide-eyed Omanju aside and sit down on chair.

"!?!?!?!?!?"

……Hmm?

Is this child staring intently between my legs?

"...No way, It's a monster."

Humans aren't interested in the private parts of dogs and cats either, and remembering how I used to have one and didn't mind bathing with it, I was convinced that "the human body must be a novelty for them."

I guess dogs and cats, or anything dangling around that you can look up at from below, would catch your eye.

"...Oh, the spot where you bit me earlier is bright red...oh no..."

I see myself in the mirror, with one side of me looking just like a girl's chest.

This makes me look just like a girl.

How embarrassing...

"...Since it's a monster baby, I wonder if it wants to suckle from other species too..."

Pushing aside my overly long hair, I begin by examining myself.

After that,

"!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?"

...Let's give this child a wash, as It's staring intently at this alien species It has never seen before.

◇◆◇

"Mmm..."

I wake up when the morning sun hits my face.

...Yesterday, one of the part-time workers didn't show up, so I was standing for over ten hours, even though I had breaks. I was fully prepared to be exhausted, but...I'm surprisingly okay.

"Omanjuu...?"

"Kyui."

When I turned towards the source of the distinctive smell of living creatures, my nose happened to waft into the fur of the manju-shaped animal.

……Fur?

"...Omanju...Your fur grew so much overnight..."

"Kyui."

"...Fuhehee...so soooft."

"!?"

I hugged it tightly... I hugged Omanju, which seemed to have gotten slightly bigger.

"Haa... so cute..."

"Kyu-kyuiiiiii..."

Hmm.

I feel lighter, and the tingling sensation in my chest, which had been bothering me lately, has calmed down. I seem to be in better condition than I thought.

When I mentioned this during a school health checkup, I was told things like, "Oh, that's because you're in your growth spurt," or "Girls like you just experience that temporarily due to female hormones."

It was so itchy and painful that I would unconsciously scratch it...it was really uncomfortable, but I'm fine this morning.

...It still feels a bit tight, but if it doesn't itch, then it's all good.
