Aira's hands fumbled anxiously to the side, trying to reach the raven-haired young man who was sound asleep beside her.
Truthfully, Aira didn't want to wake her husband, but she needed to use the bathroom at that moment. However, her legs were cramping, making it impossible for her to move.
"Renji-kun," she called out in a pained whimper. Renji's eyes snapped open, and he quickly turned on the bedside lamp. His face filled with shock and panic as he saw Aira lying on her back, writhing in pain.
"Where does it hurt, my wife?" he asked anxiously. Renji's drowsiness vanished instantly, even though it was past midnight and he had only been asleep for a few hours.
"I need to go to the bathroom, but my legs are cramping, and I can't move," Aira said, her voice trembling with pain as she struggled to get up.
Without hesitation, Renji slipped his hands under Aira's thighs and carried her to the bathroom. He pushed the door open with one hand and carefully placed her on the toilet seat.
