I’ a short break after our h ratin is still the best
I ate a bit tooa bit heavy in ood
Everyone else has gone into the workshopMy father learnt Ray was interested inswords so he enthusiastically took him to the workshop
Misha and Sasha also disappeared
It’s been a while and they still haven’t cohter fro away
Leaning back in my chair I can hear noises from the kitchen
My mother? Let’s take a look
It was actually Misha inside
“What you doing?”
Misha turned around with her usual deadpan expression
“Gratin”
I can see the stone ovens litIs she actually h
“What about it?”
“Making it”
“You are?”
Kokuri Misha nods
“Arnos’ ue with that but why?”
Misha blinked a couple tihtdinnerDid my mother teach the by myself”
I see
“You wanted ratin?”
“Nn”
“Well, ratin is the best there is”
Misha nods again
“Arnos’ favourite food”
“……Does thatbecause it’s my favourite food?”
It’s only a little bit but Misha suddenly looks shy
“I like Arnos’s happy face”
She’s saying solad”
Misha smiles at my words
“Arnos is close with Sasha”
“That’s right”
Sasha exposes all her e back and talks toat tio
“So with that?”
“It’s nice” Misha stares into my eyes“But I’m a little lonely”
“I seeDoes it feel like I’ve stolen your older sister?”
Misha’s eyes opened slightly and she shook her head
“Opposite”
Misha suddenly points at htly
Unusually for Misha, she’s assertively looking me in the eyes
“I made friends first” Her voice becomes thinner“……But Sasha is closer now……”
I unintentionally laugh
“So even Misha can think like that”
She looks down and says in a sood………”
Our feelings don’t always go the ant them too
“I’m not on better terms with Sasha than you”
“Really?”
Misha stares doubtfully at me
“She just talks more”
“…I speak less……”
Misha’s voice gets even quieter
“That’s one of your good points Misha”
Her face relaxes slightly
“Really?”
“YeahI can feel calhs shyly
“I’ seems to have been solved
“Ah”
Misha suddenly notices so a pot from the oven
A delicious scent of white sauce and cheese drifts out
“I did it”
Misha joyfully puts the pot on the table before taking a wooden spoon and scooping up so it in one gulp
Did it go well? Misha’s nodding while tasting her gratin
“Is it delicious?”
Misha turns around to face ratin and pointing the spoon at me
“Eat?”
“Ah, no, I just ate a while ago”
“…………………………………I see…………………………”
Misha stares at the gratin on the spoon
She somehow looks lonely
Oh, she did say she liked seeing
In that case, no matter how full I aed my mindI’m a bit peckishCan I have it?”
Misha sratin
Moving forward she brought the spoon tothat I open my mouth
“………”
I’m not a babyI can eat by myself
When I didn’t open my mouth she tilted her head to one side
“…Aaahn……”
Did she think her intention wasn’t coain
WhateverIt’s fine I guessDo what you want
I opened ratin
Umu, this is exquisiteShe’s only just learnt from my mother but she can already perfectly replicate ratin taste
“…How is it………?”
“Exquisite”
Fufu Misha laughed
“One s it to ain
“………Aahn……”
Did you think I wouldn’t open my mouth if you didn’t do that?
