“You don’t have to go this far…”
Rachel ca of their trip She was holding a bag of ingredients in her hand Minjoon quickly took the bag of food and put it on the table Rachel sighed exhaustedly
“I’m a cook I make food for tens, hundreds of people every day If I can’t even cook once for my disciple when he’s sick… I’d be a horrible cook, no?”
“…Thank you But I’in with, I was just tired Please don’t worry too much”
“You should’ve toldto say to that”
Minjoon spoke with an apologetic tone before closing his redients froht with an emotionless face
“I told you to rest well Are you doing that?”
“Yes, I a that as always?”
Minjoon didn’t kno to answer that It felt like she’d scold hiardless of what he said In the end, he decided to just be honest about it
“…I don’t cook often, but I cook o overboard, though”
Rachel looked at Minjoon silently Why did those eyes of her look so stressful to hiht now? When Minjoon turned away to look at the carrot on the table, Rachel opened her ain?”
“Uood food, and I think I was charetables on TV I think it was a cos”
“Do you knohen you start hating the job you used to love?”
“I don’t really know”
Instead of responding, Rachel took out her sword Watching the carrot get cutaway like tofu under her was pretty beautiful to watch The sound of the knife hitting the cutting board, the sound of the carrot getting cut, and the sound of Rachel’s sleeves sliding up and down her ar to the noise of the knife, Rachel whispered at hiet associated with your work”
It was clear what Rachel meant by those painful memories Minjoon didn’t know quite how to respond Rachel didn’t say anything more than that Instead, she asked a question Her knife didn’t stop , and her voice still carried a hint of worry in it
“Where’s Kaya right now?”
“She’s bringing her family over They’ll be here soon”
“Good I know I’ll just , but the world needs old people like me at times It looks like I’ll unfortunately have to take that role today Don’t make Kaya like me If you collapse in the kitchen, then Kaya would start hating the kitchen You knohat Ithat told Minjoon that his health was very iht for a second Hoould Kaya live without him? Of course, Minjoon knew of Kaya in the world before he returned to the past But that Kaya wasn’t one that lost Minjoon That was just the Kaya who didn’t even know of hi the industry for a decade because of him, like Rachel did…
“…That’s an advice I would never be able to forget Thank you”
Minjoon responded seriously Rachel nodded As far as she knew, Minjoon would keep his word no matter what He’d probably worry a lot ood enough
“Would you like to help?”
“…Can I?”
“I have a higher probability of collapsing froht now It’d be odd if I was the one to collapse after telling you not to overwork, wouldn’t it?”
“Where should I start? No, ere you thinking of lio, and a Caponata on top of that Don’t have dessert It’s unhealthy”
“Ah… It’s siht”
Rachel turned to stare at Minjoon,hiht you were going toht”
“Maybe if you collapsed just yesterday I don’t see the need to do that right now, though Youa stomach ache if you eat too much now”
“Mredients for the zucchini soup, please”
“Yes, chef”
Minjoon cal the onions and garlic, Kaya and her family arrived at the house They all looked at Rachel confusedly, htly
“It looks like my teacher really wanted to feed us well before we left”
“Oh my… Thank you, Ms Rachel Should I help…?”
“It’s fine, redients”
“Do you trustyou to sit still?”
Kaya put so to help Grace looked at Kaya disapprovingly for a bit before showing a sazines where you appeared, Ms Rachel I always thought about cooking your dishes totoo busy”
“It’s always difficult to start anything It’s still not too late Please tellI can’t tutor you, but I can give you a few tips”
“Really? Thank you so much”
As the two of them talked, Jemma watched the three of them cook quietly It was an everyday lunchtiether But this ti were Minjoon, Kaya, and Rachel The s to behold
“Minjoon, wat are you lio, and a Caponata”
“…I knohat the soup is, but I don’t knohat the others are”
“They’re all Mediterranean Caponata is a dish that has stir-fried vegetables with fish or octopus served with a wine-based sauce Salsa sallio sauce… Here, look”
