"Thanks again for making us breakfast." Satoko smiled as she walked beside Rosa.
All of them, including Rika and Maria, were now walking outside. It was another bright sunny day, and Rosa was getting another view of the countryside. Rosa was holding Maria while Satoko and Rika walked on each side of her.
"You're welcome." Rosa smiled. "I'd say all of you have me beat, but I'm happy I could do something for you kids for a change."
"I liked your eggs, though." Satoko smiled.
"I'm happy to hear that." Rosa turned to look at Satoko on her right.
"So what are we doing today?" Riksa said, making Rosa turn to look at her.
"Haven't figured that out yet." Rosa sighed. "I still don't know much about this place, so I'm not sure what all we could do."
"What do you normally like to do?" Satoko asked. "You never told us what you like or anything like that."
Rosa looked up and thought about her answer. In all honesty, no one ever asked her that question.
"I'm not sure." Rosa frowned as she stopped and looked down.
"You're not sure what you like?" Rika frowned as she turned to face Rosa.
"I guess relaxing is something I love." Rosa nervously laughed. "I guess I just never…"
"We could go to our hot spring then!" Satoko smiled.
"Hot spring?" Rosa's eyes went wide as she looked at Satoko.
"Remember? Shion told you about it when you tried on your swimsuit!" Satoko explained as those memories came back to Rosa.
"Oh, that…" Rosa sighed, remembering Shion doing that. "I didn't pack a swimsuit, and neither did you two."
"It's a private hot spring, though." Satoko smiled. "You don't have to wear anything."
"I…." Rosa blushed heavily.
"And I brought some towels in Maria's bag just in case." Rika smiled.
"You did what?" Rosa opened her bag while holding Maria with one arm and saw Rika pack a few towels as she said. She looked up at the both of them standing before her, smiling. "You two planned this from the start, didn't you?"
"Maybe." Rika smiled.
"Oh ho ho ho ho!" Satoko laughed. "We felt you'd want to relax after yesterday and thought it was a perfect time to bring up the hot spring."
"Of course." Rosa sighed.
"I think Maria would like it too." Rika pointed at her in Rosa's arms.
Rosa looked down and saw Maria smiling like she'd been since meeting all of them. She smiled back at her.
"I guess a hot spring would be nice." Rosa dropped her shoulders.
"Great!" Satoko smiled as she turned around. "Follow me!"
"I think I'd go insane if I had these two as daughters," Rosa mumbled as she followed.
"Did you say something, Rosa?" Rika asked, walking beside her.
"Oh, just talking to myself." Rosa giggled.
Satoko and Rika led Rosa to a nature trail before going off the path. After passing through a few trees, they led Rosa through a small clearing. After a few minutes, they arrived.
"This is your private hot spring?" Rosa's eyes were wide as she stood looking at it.
"Yep!" Satoko smiled. "Anyways, let's hop in alre…."
"Satoko?" A familiar voice said, making them turn toward the water.
"Rena!" Maria smiled as she started reaching for the girl in question.
"Rosa and Maria are here too?" Rena quickly got out of the water and stood in front of Rosa. "I didn't know you were coming!"
"I didn't either." Rosa sighed. "These two decided to surprise me with this."
"Surprise?" Rosa raised an eyebrow.
"Rosa spent the night and made up breakfast." Rika smiled.
"Rosa spent the night with you and made you breakfast!?" Rena's eyes almost popped out of her head as Rika nodded. She then turned to Rosa. "I would have wanted to spend the night."
"I'm sorry, Rena." Rosa sighed. "I swear I didn't plan to stay the night."
"Maria fell asleep next to Satoko, and Rosa didn't want to wake them up." Rika giggled.
"What!?" Satoko's face turned red as Rosa giggled.
"Oh, that sounds so kyute!" Rena smiled as she danced in place. "It must have been so adorable!"
"It was." Rosa smiled. "Satoko was smiling and looked so,"
"Let's just hop in already!" Satoko interrupted, starting to undress. "Aren't all of you coming in too!?"
"Of course." Rika smiled as she did the same.
"Do you want to try the hot springs, Maria?" Rena smiled as she walked up and grabbed Maria, who was still smiling.
"You know, you could have asked before taking Maria." Rosa sighed.
"How else are you supposed to undress, though?" Rena giggled as she started undressing Maria. "Don't want to get your pretty dress wet, do we?"
Maria giggled as Rena also tickled her. Rosa continued smiling as she watched Rena playing with her daughter. She watched Rena carry Maria into the water with her, both still smiling.
"Rosa!" Satoko waved, now in the water. "What's taking so long!?"
"You can't enjoy the hot spring outside of it." Rika giggled.
"Fine, just hold on." Rosa sighed as she started to undress.
Rosa blushed as she took off her clothes. She went from trying out clothes she wasn't used to to stripping outside to enjoy a hot spring. Thankfully, it looked secluded, like Satoko and Rika told her, so she wasn't worried about strangers seeing her. Once she had everything off and folded, she slowly entered the water.
She slowly placed one foot in, feeling the relaxing warmth from the water. She then brought her other foot into the water before walking in deeper. The look of shock on her face stayed as she got more into the water.
"This is amazing." Rosa now had the water over her chest.
"We knew you'd like it." Satoko smiled.
"Maria seems to like it too." Rena giggled as she held Maria in the water like she was swimming. Maria kicked her legs as Rena moved her through the water.
"I didn't expect this treatment when I won my free trip." Rosa smiled before closing her eyes and leaning back as she went under the water. She popped up instantly as she brushed her hair back with her hand. "I've never even gone to a resort with a spring this nice."
"Even more reason for you to stay." Satoko giggled.
*I knew that was coming." Rosa sighed as she found a place to sit.
"Awe, you're doing so good, Maria." Rena smiled, still holding her like she was swimming.
"She's a natural." Rika smiled.
"So Rena," Rosa said, getting her attention. "Why were you here alone? Don't you think that's dangerous?"
"Sorry." Rena giggled as she held up Maria. "I was feeling sore from yesterday and thought taking a dip would be helpful."
"Sore?" Rosa raised an eyebrow. "From what?"
"Well,"
