Chapter 188 (2/2)
Yukino-kun’s face lit up into a smile
“Wah! You really made food for me!”
“Yuki-chan, where’s your thanks?”
“Thank you, Reika-oneesan!”
“You are very welcome I only hope that it suits your taste…”
I watched a little nervously as the children peered on at the lid being lifted
“Chirashi+zushi+! It’s so pretty!”
“Did Reika-oneesama make this? I want to try it too!”
“It looks good”
Ooh, at least the appearance seemed okay
Thank goodness
The one who put the strips of nori seaas me, you know
“You’re so good at cooking, Reika-san I heard from your mother that you often cooked at home”
“No, it is e”
Apparently Okaasa about me outside the family
Was that why she was so worried about the food I brought?
My cooking would have revealed quite a nus about us
Honestly, as if one parent hadn’t been enough…
“Since Reika-san went to all the trouble, how about you try soht now, Yuki-chan?”
“Yeah”
Madam Enjou served some onto a plate for him
I could feelin anticipation
Yukino-kun tried a bite
“Yuood, Reika-oneesan!” he exclaimed
The little angel was soodness!
His mother, Mao-chan, and everyone else praised it too
We did it, Akimi-san!
Since the boxes weren’t all that big the chirashi+zushi+ disappeared in no time
I was soooo relieved!
“Mood at cooking, Kisshouin-san”
Enjou had finished everything on the plate too
I guess unlike Kaburagi he was totally fine with homemade food
Oh, or had he forced himself?
“I didn’t force myself”
Gyaah! He read my mind!
I kneas scary!
“No, it’s just written all over your face”
Really?
Oh ain!
I was terrified at having any an aardly eating cake
“Reika-oneesaushed in admiration
“She really is,” added Yukino-kun
Uuu, the purity of these children was uilty…
“I actuallyteacher,” I admitted almost immediately
“Really? But that means you still made it, Reika-oneesama”
“Well, I suppose Since I had help, getting all the praise to myself made me feel bad for her”
Although, I really did help, and although we arranged the toppings together, the praise belonged to Akimi-san
“Huhu, you’re a upright person, Reika-san Who was it that taught you?” asked Mrs Enjou
“It was Akimi-san from the Naruto me as a personal favour”
“I see The daughter of the Narutomi family is still a student, if I remember correctly”
“She is”
After that Mao-chan said that she wanted to try cooking lessons too
Although since her ood cook, she could honestly just have her teach her
When Yukino-kun finished his cake he began opening his presents a his friends
It was ti him react happily to the last one
I hoped it was fine…
“I wonder what it is”
“It’s pretty big”
“Hurry and open it, Yukino-kun”
“Okay Wahh, what is this?”
Since he had asthet him a humidifier
Not just any huh
There were two layers of transparent globes, and between the in a mixture of water and blue oil
There were dolphins, whales, clownfish, even the manatees that he had been fond of in Okinawa
It made for a rather cute piece of interior decoration
A mini-aquarium that doubled as a humidifier
To be honest, the humidifier was the less impressive half
“So cute! There’s dolphins swi about”
“There are the manatees you love so much too, you know?”
“Eh-, where?”
While he was happily looking for manatees I contentedly handed him one more box
“Yukino-kun, open this too This is a little extra”
“Eh? This too?” he asked in surprise “Hmm?”
Opening it up, Yukino-kun looked a little confused
“What is this?” he asked in wonder
Inside the box were nuinners’ to some really difficult ones
“Those are puzzle rings,” I answered “Have you heard of thele them”
“Oooh!”
They were perfect for killing time
Since I knew he had to stay hoood to play with by himself
When I was ssaw puzzles and stuff too
The children see to solve them
“Hmm, this is hard”
“I can’t do it at all”
“Wahh! Yukino-kun’s Oniisama solved one!”
Earlier, one of the girls had asked hiently passed them back
Mlad that everyone had fun with them
I had actually brought Jenga and boardgames with me too
Would those be a good idea?
That hen one of the staff announced Kaburagi’s arrival
