Kanzaki was alone at home. Playing a video game when the doorbell rang.

"Hm?"

Kanzaki got up and walked over to the door, opening it. On the other side Sugino stood, looking bruised and beaten up.

"Hey ya."

"Sugino!? Are you alright?!"

"Y-Yeah, I was at the bating cages and the pitching machine malfunctioned... Kept shooting baseballs..."

He let out a laugh and flinched in pain.

"You want to be a nurse right? Can you help me with my wounds?"

"Actually I want to do elder care." Said Kanzaki. "But I can definitely help."

Kanzaki let Sugino inside and went into the bathroom to grab a first aid kit. When she returned, Sugino was lying on the couch.

"Lets start with your face."

She sat down next to Sugino and opened the first aid kit, taking out a tube of cream.

"This will reduce the swelling."

She squeezed some of the cream out and rubbed it on the bruises on Sugino's face. He flinched slightly with each touch.

"Alright, Take your shirt off."

"Y-Yeah."

Sugino took his shirt off, revealing many bumps and bruises underneath.

"Oh my."

"Yeah, that pitching machine was brutal." Said Sugino.

She carefully started applying cream to each individual bruise.

"You should really be more careful." Said Kanzaki.

"It's not my fault the pitching machine malfunctioned." Said Sugino.

She finnished applying the cream and got up.

"I'll get some ice."

She went into the kitchen, leaving Sugino alone. She returned a few minutes later with a towel and an ice pack.

"Sugino I got-"

Without warning Kanzaki fell onto the ground, dropping the towel and the ice pack.

"Kanzaki!"

Sugino got up and rushed to her side.

"Are you alright?!"

"I tripped." Said Kanzaki. "My foot hurts."

"Um, lets see how bad it is."

Sugino bent down and removed one of Kanzaki's socks. The foot underneath was swollen red.

"Yikes."

Sugino gulped nervously.

"So... What do I do?"

"G-get the cream, it'll reduce the swelling."

Sugino grabbed the tube of cream and squeezed a little bit out.

"Here it goes."

He carefully began rubbing it on Kanzaki's wound. She flinched at the touch, causing Sugino to pause.

"S-Sorry."

"Its not your fault." Said Kanzaki. "Just keep going."

Sugino continued rubbing until the cream was no longer visible.

"Now we need to ice the wound..." Said Kanzaki. "Go to the kitchen and-"

Sugino grabbed the towel and the ice pack off the ground.

"Or I could just use these."

"B-but those are yours-"

"You need them more than I do." Said Sugino as he wrapped the towel around the ice pack.

He held the ice pack against Kanzaki's foot.

"Funny, I came here because I needed medical help from you." Said Sugino "And here I am giving it to you."

"Hen, yeah..."

The two youths looked at each other and smiled.

"Ahem..."

They both turned their heads towards the front door. Kanzaki's father was standing in the doorway with his arms crossed and an agitated look on his face.

"D-Dad..."

He obviously was not pleased to find his daughter on the floor with a shirtless boy.

"Um... I can explain?"
