Chapter 10: 10

The next morning.

“Had a good time yesterday, didn’t you?”

“Who are you? The innkeeper?”

As I waited for Ryoko and Tomomi outside my house to go to school, Tomomi, who had arrived unusually early, spotted me and made a surprised face, then approached me with a smirk on her face.

“What’s wrong? You’re early, Tomomi.”

“I didn’t want you to say that, Hiro.”

“You know that I and Ryoko are always waiting for you, right?”

“It’s a little painful to hear you say that… but I can’t help it, you know! My house is far away!”

“There’s a fine line between what’s a far enough distance on bike but… yeah”　

“And? What’s the reason you came all the way over such a long distance to here, so early?”

“Oh, yes, yes. I forgot. You got the prize yesterday, right?”

“Prize?”

“The Fujita one”

“Ahh. That one…”

Maybe it’s because I took pity on Fujita, but it completely slipped out of my memory.

“Fujita gave me a ticket too… but I don’t know what to do with it.”

“What do you want me to do?”

“But we have only two tickets, right? We can’t go with three people. It would be bad to leave Ryoko alone.”

“What movie is it?”

“They say it’s a Hollywood blockbuster romance.”

Wow… I’m honestly not that interested.

“Why don’t you go with Ryoko?”

“Then you should tell that to Ryoko, right? She’ll say that she won’t go because she would be too concerned about it.”

“You do have a point.”

That’s how Ryoko is. I wish she wouldn’t worry about such things.

“But it would be a shame to throw them away without using them. So, why don’t the three of us buy another ticket?”

“Ah… well, I guess that’s a safe choice.”

She smiled happily at my words and said, “So that’s decided!” However afterwards her face then turned wry. What is it? 

“Hiro came home late yesterday, didn’t you? That’s why we couldn’t even talk about this!”

“Yeah, and?”

“Hiro and Ryoko are next to each other, so I thought it would be nice that we could have talked about it without having to carry it over the whole day, right?”

“I’m fine with waiting for a day. If it was that bad, you should have waited for me.”

I know it’s a little late for that, but you keep coming into my house even when I’m not there. 

Tomomi scratched her head at my words.

“No, not yesterday. I was afraid I would have hit him when I saw his face yesterday.”

“I see.”

 Your life was saved, Dad.

“And if I stay out too late, I’ll get in trouble. I wish I lived next door to Hiro. Lucky Ryoko.  Then I could have Italian Mapo Tofu every day.”

“Give me a break. You want me to make all that stuff?”

“You can be a master of Chinese food!”

“Not interested.”

　I mean, is that thing Chinese food? Even though they call it “Italian” Mapo Tofu… 

“Ahh~~ I’m getting hungry talking about it. Hiro, can I stop by on my way home from club activities?”

“What? You’re coming today?”

“I’m coming. Be ready for me, okay?”

“Good morning, Hiroyuki-chan and Tomomi-chan. Sorry I’m late.”

While Tomomi and I were talking, the front door of Ryoko’s house next door opened and Ryoko came running toward us.

“Don’t run. You’ll fall.”

“Mou~, Hiroyuki-chan. I’m not that clumsy. Fu~”

“I’m not convinced by the words of someone who’s out of breath after running that short of a distance.”

That’s only around five meters, right?

“I was so flustered in the house. My hair wouldn’t stay in place. It bounced this way and that way, and it was hard to fix! Fuu~ Oh? What were you guys talking about?”

“I was talking about how I haven’t eaten Hiro’s Italian Mapo Tofu in a while. How about you,　Ryoko?”

“Ahh~ That sounds nice. It’s been a while since I’ve eaten his tofu. Do you have club today, Tomomi-chan?”

“Yep, that’s right.”

“Well then, Hiroyuki-chan, let’s go shopping after school, alright? Also, can we divide the cost of materials into three equal parts as usual?”

“Good, good. I’ll be counting on the two of you!”

“Leave it to me!”

The two laughed together in a theatrical manner. No, don’t decide on your own without the cook.

“Don’t finalize it already.”

“… What? Are you inconvenienced? Did you have something to do?”

“Well no, I don’t have anything to do…”

I just want to relax a bit since I already made it yesterday. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to stomach Italian Mapo-tofu  two days in a row.

“Ah! I get it! You haven’t made it lately, Hiro, so you must be anxious!”

Tomomi, who misunderstood what I was thinking about, made an unexpected conclusion.

“Is that so? Don’t worry, Hiroyuki-chan. I’ll help you too.”

And Ryoko is also on board. Now what?

“Don’t worry. I made and ate it yesterday, too. I’m just saying that I’ll get tired of it two days in a row. Well, I don’t mind if you hold a dinner party, but if that’s the case, we can have it in on a different–“

–occasion. 

What was it? I can feel a chill running through my spine. 

“Why did you make it yesterday, Hiroyuki-chan?”

“W-why? Well I–”

“Ne~. Who? Who did you serve it to? The Italian Mapo Tofu? Tell me! Don’t you dare say you ate it alone!”

“Hey, calm down Tomomi! What are you so mad about?”

“I’m mad too! Don’t tell me, Hiroyuki-chan.. You didn’t make Italian Mapo Tofu for Kiryu-san, did you?!”

“Eh~. Well… yeah?” 



“Haaaaaaaaah!!”

“I can’t believe it! Why? Why did you make that for Kiryu-san?!”

“That’s right, Hiroyuki-chan. You know other dishes too! So why?!”

No, seriously. What are these guys getting angry for?

“Because.. Because, Because!”

“That’s right! Because!”

“Calm down, you guys. Also, all you said was “Because!”

“I mean.. Hey, Tomomi-chan!’

“That’s right! Hiro, your Italian Mapo Tofu is–!”

“…… ‘The Taste of Childhood Friendship’, right?””

“Huh?”

They looked a little embarrassed and their cheeks turned vermilion. I give them a blank look. 

What are they talking about?

“What are you guys talking about?”

And then I said it out loud as I thought of it. C**p. When I realized, it was already too late. At that moment, the two of them glared at me with horrified expressions. That’s why! That face of yours, a bishoujo, is so destructive!

‘I don’t know anymore!　Hiroyuki-chan, you idiot!”

“Yes!　You know what?　Can’t you just think about it for a second?”

“Why do you think we even go out just to eat it together every time?”

“Why you say… Isn’t that because you guys are just hungry?”

“……I’ve had enough! Ryoko!”

“Yeah!. I’ll report it to Akane! Hiroyuki-chan made some other girl eat his Italian Mapo Tofu!”

“Huh? W-where did Akane come from?”

“I don’t know! Let’s go Ryoko!”

“Yeah!”

The two of them were walking shoulder to shoulder. I was left behind, staring at their backs.

“What are you so mad about?”

After this, I desperately apologized to her and she said “Then the movie ticket is Hiro’s treat!”. I was thankful for Tomomi’s gracious judgment. Did I understand what happened? I still don’t.
