Chapter 637 - "Peaceful Times"

[……We came a little late huh. It doesn’t seem like we can get a good seat…… What should we do? Kaito-san, me, and Iris-san don’t have afternoon lectures today, so why don’t we eat outside?]

[Hmmm, I’m fine with that but…… Iris-san, have you brought a bento today as well?]

[……No…… I didn’t…… bring any…… today.]

Alyssa and I often eat at the school cafeteria, but Iris-san sometimes brings a bento depending on the day, so I asked her if she brought one today, but it doesn’t seem like she did.

If that’s the case, we might as well eat outside as Alyssa suggested.

[Well then, let’s go eat outside…… Where should we go?]

[That’s right. Alyssa-chan is a Transcendental Beauty of a Lady who knows what peak cuisine is…… Let’s go for hamburgers!]

[……Iris-san, where would you like to go?]

[You’re ignoring me!?]

Well, to be honest, Alyssa eats just about anything…… so I should just focus on Iris-san’s request here.]

[……I’ve never…… really tried…… hamburgers…… before…… so I’d like…… to try it out.]

[I see. Then, let’s go to the hamburger joint in front of the station.]

[……Unnn.]

[What’s with this difference in treatment…… I don’t understand.]

Ignoring Alyssa’s grumbling, we left the cafeteria and headed for the hamburger joint.

Thereupon, as if she suddenly remembered something, Iris-san spoke.

[……Should we also…… invite “Fae”?]

[Ahh, you’re right. Alyssa…… Did Fae-san attend school today?]

[She should have attended today…… but she’s probably sleeping around the library again, isn’t she?]

Fae-san is one of my classmates who is a good friend of mine. Her name is Murakumo Fae…… Her name may give you the impression that she’s Chinese, but she was born and raised in Japan.

I heard that she was technically 1/4 Chinese, but I haven’t really heard the details about that.

She is Alyssa’s childhood friend and best friend, and I had known her since high school. She was very smart, especially with things related to computers, but she was a lazy person who finds things bothersome, often skipping class.

Well, even when she’s such a person, she’s still going through college without a hitch…… which makes me think that she’s somewhat of a great person.

[……If we also have to look for Fae-san, the day may end before we find her, so let’s just go by ourselves.]

[Well, you’re right.]

As Alyssa said, Fae-san isn’t a person we can find just by trying to find her. It’s apparently likely that Alyssa, who has been with her for a long time, could find her…… but it isn’t 100% sure that we could find her.

That’s why we decided not to search for Fae-san this time, and the three of us headed to the hamburger joint.

After we finished ordering at a famous hamburger chain in front of the station and received our orders, we sat down together at a four-seater table.

Incidentally, I’m on the cheeseburger faction, while Alyssa is on the teriyaki burger faction. As she had never eaten one before, Iris-san had ordered an orthodox hamburger.

[Even so, I’ve been wondering about this for a while…… Iris-san, do you have a criteria for the day where you bring your bento? It doesn’t seem like it’s on the days of the week, isn’t it?]

[……Unnn…… I make my bento…… together with Dad’s bento…… and on Dad’s rest day…… I don’t make one.]

[Heehhh, I see…… What does your father do, Iris-san?]

[He’s the president of a trading company, you know?]

[Heehhh, so that’s why his vacation days are all over the place…… Wait, why the heck are you the one answering…… Alyssa?]

I was taken aback by Alyssa’s reply before Iris-san could answer, but we continued our idle chit-chat.

[Even so, bringing bentos is also great. Mom isn’t that great of a cook to prepare me a bento…… and I sadly don’t have the cooking skills either, so I admire you a bit.]

[……I see…… Then…… Why don’t you ask Alyssa to make it?]

[Whaa!? W- Why me!?]

[……After all…… Alyssa is…… a very good cook.]

Indeed, as Iris-san said, Alyssa’s cooking skills are top-notch. She comes over to my home quite often and has served me her home-cooked meals on several occasions…… All of them tasted really great.

[No, well, I certainly am a Super Transcendental Beauty who can make everything from mom’s cooking to foods served in 3 michelin star restaurants but…… that doesn’t mean I should just make him bento…… N- No, well, if Kaito-san really insists…… I’m fine making it. Well, there’s obviously a fee……]

[Seriously!? Is it alright? If that’s the case, I’d be very grateful but……]

[Eh? Y- You’re interested in that? Ahh, please wait, your face is too close…… Even Alyssa-chan needs to prepare her heart……]

[No, Alyssa’s cooking is really good, so if it’s around the same price as the school cafeteria’s lunch, I’d gladly pay, you know?]

[I- I- I- Is that so…… W- Well, I’m not really a professional, so y- you can just pay for the ingredients. T- Then, shall I start making you bentos tomorrow?]

[Yes. Thanks, Alyssa. I’m really looking forward to it.]

[……G- Geez, you’re so aggressive sometimes, that it’s bad for my heart.]

[Unnn? You said something?]

[It’s nothing!!!]

This was an unexpectedly pleasant turn of events. I am really looking forward to lunch tomorrow.

[……Alyssa…… You’re blushing.]

[Shaddup! What are you giggling for there…… Ahh, geez! This is what happens to mouths who say too much!]

[……Ahh…… Wait…… I don’t like mustard——— Spicy!]

For some reason, Alyssa took a mustard-smeared nugget in one hand and began shoving it into Iris-san’s mouth.
