Naturally, I finished solving the problems faster than Touka.
I decided to lie down on the bed while Touka finished solving the problems.
“What’s for lunch today?”
I muttered to myself with my face to the ceiling in a voice loud enough for Truka not to hear me.
“I wonder…”
In the morning, she said she was going to make lunch, but I still don’t know what she’s going to make, as well as Touka.
“I’m done!”
Within a few minutes after I lay down on the bed, Touka stretched her arms to the ceiling as if to let me know that she was done, extending her body, which had been in the same posture for a long time.
“Well then, it’s good to be done and the time is good, let’s go to the living room, shall we?”
“Yes!”
I walked downstairs into the living room and looked at the dining room table, where we always eat, and saw several plates and various ingredients.
“Mother-in-law? What are these?”
“This is tacos… . It’s a dish that you eat by putting various ingredients in this thin tortilla dough and wrapping it, but today I want to put whatever I like on my own and eat it with the three of us.”
It’s true that you can wrap and eat the food together while talking, and it seems like you can connect with each other and have a wider range of conversation,…….
“Wow, that’s great! This all looks so good…….”
Touka took a seat and muttered while looking around at the dishes on the table.
“I’ll show you how to wrap it up and you can try to imitate me!”
Mom then placed the thin, circular tortilla dough on the plate before arranging the vegetables on top of the dough to serve as a base for the other ingredients.
“I put teriyaki chicken, stir-fried ground beef, or corn on the cob on top of the vegetables that have become the base of the tortilla at ……. Then fold the dough from the edge of the dough on your side of the body toward the middle, and next fold it from the left and right toward the middle.”
Mom said it was done and bit into the finished product.
“I’ll try it!”
Touka put vegetables and ingredients on top, wrapped the dough and made one in no time, as if imitating mother.
“This is ……, I’ll eat it!”
She took two or three bites without saying a word.
After there was nothing left in her mouth, she finally began to speak.
“Delicious ……. It is very delicious.”
“I’m glad to hear that. Please eat a lot more.”
“Yes!”
After watching this exchange, I made and ate the same.

After eating lunch and taking a short break, Touka and I decided to start studying for the afternoon.
Normally we would have continued where we left off, but after some discussion we decided to do math.
“Did we do two rounds of the default part of this problem book that we always use?”
“As I recall, the assignment was to do two laps of the book and then go over the problems that we had made mistakes on. I think there was also a test after the summer break. ……”
“I see. Then we’ll finish the first round today and do another round tomorrow. Then we’ll do the wrong ones after the first day of school gets closer. I think that would be better.”
I put away the old paper printouts and long English problem books that I had been using until a while ago, took out the math problem book and practice notebook, and put them on the desk.
“Touka …… I’m in your care.”
“Yes!”
As expected, I have the answer, but it’s much easier to understand if I ask Touka to teach me, so I’m sorry for Touka, but I basically ask Touka about questions I don’t understand.
I don’t understand this one either……And this one too……

After a long time, I finally finished about a third of my math assignments.
“Thank you, Touka. It was seriously easy to understand and it helped me a lot.”
“No, it’s fine! I’m almost done with my math assignment.”
I took a lot of time with mathematics, so I wasn’t able to advance the task much, but it was good that I was able to solve the math problem even if it was just one round.
“It’s almost time to go……”
“I…..see. There is also another assignment tomorrow.”
“Do you still want to go over the assignment at my place tomorrow?”
“Yes!”
We made a promise for tomorrow, and then we decided to disband.
“Oh, yes. Touka, you can call me tomorrow when you get home, or you can press the intercom as soon as you get there.”
“Y, yes! Thanks.”
