The longer he deals with the daily repetition, the more he comes to appreciate it. He doesn't like every part of the work Jade expects him to do, like cleaning the bathroom, but even that doesn't matter. It's a relaxing pattern and almost refreshing, despite breaking out in a sweat. He definitely feels better when he's done.
"Didn't forget the milk this time."
More at ease than before, he pours them both a cup of tea and then plops down beside Irvin, more interested in stroking the dog than having tea with Jade. He can touch Irvin whenever he wants to. He can't do that with Jade. He doesn't want to -- Jade probably already thinks of him as clingy and that's not how Shinjirou wants to be seen. It's embarrassing.
