I Saw My Female Friend, a Beautiful and Neat Girl, Holding a Romance Book Titled “How to Get Your Male Friend to Like You” and Decided to Give Advice on Love~ In Fact, the Guy She Likes Seems to Be Me!?~
The next day, at lunchtime, Hizakura spoke to me, looking more energetic than ever.
“Kanzaki-kun! If you like, would you like to have lunch with me again today?”
“Okay, is there something you want to discuss with me?”
“No, I just wanted to have lunch with you today,”
You don’t have anything to discuss with me, but you want to have lunch with me ……?
I thought that if she had the time, it would be better to have lunch with someone she likes, but I couldn’t say such a thing when Hizakura had invited me, and since eating lunch with Hizakura, with whom I had a deeper relationship yesterday, was not something I didn’t want to do, but rather something that made me happy, I decided to accept it.
We sat together on the bench that had become our usual bench, and as we opened the lid of our bento for each other, Hizakura asked
“Do you always make your own bento, Kanzaki-kun?”
“Yeah, I don’t have much to do in the mornings, so I at least do the cooking myself.”
“That’s great.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes.”
“But my cooking skills are nothing compared to the omu-rice from Hizakura that she made me yesterday, so I need to improve my cooking skills.”
“Cooking skills…”
Hizakura thinks about my words for a moment, then, as if she had just had an idea, she leaned forward and said.
“Kanzaki-kun! I’m not going to say that I’m a good cook, but if Kanzaki-kun still thinks my cooking is delicious, then shall I teach you how to make it?”
“Eh? Is that okay?”
“Yes! I want to teach you!”
“If you’re willing to go that far, then perhaps”
As the conversation progressed, I began to learn how to cook and she began to teach me how to cook.
I started to eat dinner, thinking that the progress of my relationship with Hizakura has been amazing lately.
After a few minutes of eating together, Hizakura put an omelette in my mouth.
“Kanzaki-kun…..A-Ahhnn~”
“…… Eh?”
…… ahn?
Oh, you mean that thing that lovers often do to each other,…….but
“Why are you doing that to me?”
“Umm,……, I want to thank you for all the help you give me on a daily basis! I usually ask you for relationship advice, and even if I don’t, you’re always there for me at school!
“You don’t have to thank me, we’re friends ────hn!?!”
When I was about to say that she didn’t have to do that because we were friends, Hizakura interrupted me and put an omelet in my mouth.
When I finished the omelet, I was about to say something to Hizakura, but she looked sulky and puffed up her cheeks.
“…..Why is Hizakura sulking?”
“I’m not sulking, okay?”
“You look like you’re sulking.”
“That’s not true.”
Hizakura seemed calm when speaking, but her cheeks were puffed out as usual…However, there was one thing I wanted to tell her, so I told her about it.
“Hizakura’s tamagoyaki was delicious and had a different seasoning than yesterday’s omelet rice.”
“….!!”
When I told her that, Hizakura stopped puffing her cheeks out and said with a happy look on her face
“If you like it, I’ll continue to make it for you.”
“Oh, thank you.”
When I expressed my gratitude, Hizakura turned her face to the side and muttered in a voice too small for me to hear.
“It’s really …… not fair.”
I couldn’t make out what Hizakura said, but her expression seemed to be somehow happy…and she continued on.
“That’s right, Kanzaki-kun, from today onwards, you can have fried eggs or whatever, but one thing I want you to try is my cooking.”
“Why?”
“Because I think it would be useful for you to know what my dish tastes like when I teach you how to cook.”
“I see…… that’s the case, then I’ll eat them every day.”
“Yeah. …… the way you eat, ahhh~~, that’s fine, right?”
“Just change it.”
“No.”
“Why not?”
“Because you can’t!”
“That’s why. ────”
“No is a No!!”
“O-Okay, okay, that’s fine.”
I was so overcome by her momentum that I decided to accept her ahhn
” ……”
If I accept Hizakura’s aahn, does that mean that I have decided to eat Hizakura’s food every day from now on?
……That thought gave me a moment, but I tried not to think about it as much as possible as I ate my lunch with Hizakura.
