A Man Who Cooks For Himself And A High School Girl (WN)

ike curry…”

“R-Really…!?”

Seeing her friend's surprised face, the clumsy high school girl smiled brightly.

“U-Un…It’s amazing, you know? I thought you’d probably put the wrong amount of sugar and salt, the wrong amount of water, or forgot to put in the curry roux or something…”

“That’s what you thought about me!?”

“You used to knock over pots and pans during camping in the eighth grade, but now…you have grown up…”

“UGH!?”

(She knocked it over…?)

When Asahi-san blushed after being cited for past mistakes, I rubbed my chest and thought to myself, “I'm glad I kept a proper eye on you…”

Although she was quite clumsy, she never made a single mistake in procedure or quantity.
She worked very hard in her own way, making sure that her friend would enjoy the food she prepared.

“By the way, didn't you buy potatoes when we went shopping? You didn't put them in?”

“I-It’s in there, you know!? But I think they already melted!”

“Melted…? Isn’t that impossible in just a short amount of time…?”

There’s just no way that Asahi-san would say, “The potatoes are almost gone when I was peeling them!” so she just turned her gaze away…Well, that's something we'll have to work on in the future.

“…I see.
You did your best, Hima.”

“Un…! That’s because Onii-san taught me everything I should do!”

I scratch my cheek, unsure how to respond to the high school girl who smiles back at me.

Kotsubaki-san laughed as she looked down at the plate of curry in her hand after staring at my face like that.

“…So, it’s like that, huh? Umm…”

“Hmm?”

Kotsubaki-san raised her head and looked at us again, this time with a slightly softer air than when we first met, and said,

“Why don't you two eat as well? I don't want to be the only one eating.”

“Y-Yeah…That’s right, guess we’ll do that.”

“I’ll join you too then! Ah, Hiyori, I bought some drinks, would you like some?”

“Un, thank you.”

“Then you can use the paper cups on the top shelf.”

It's still early for dinner, but we sit around the table, which is too cramped for the three of us.

The first cooking class ended successfully as Asahi-san enjoyed her first curry in a long time while laughing with Kotsuki-san.
