“…Huh?”

When I opened the door, Fumi-senpai was standing right in front of me. This isn’t a dream, right? It’s not gonna turn out like, “Actually, I was still asleep—” or something?

“Sorry to bother you when you’re feeling under the weather.”

“Ah, no, no, it’s fine.”

I’m not an idiot—I can tell the difference between a dream and reality right away. This is happily reality.

Whoa! I never thought Fumi-senpai would actually come to my house! I can’t afford to have a cold anymore—I gotta get better right now.

“It’s hot out. Please come inside.”

“Thanks.”

Yay! Fumi-senpai came into my house (Shota Mizuno’s house)!

This house has only ever had me, Saotome, and that damn trash goddess come in, so this makes me happy.

“I’ll make some tea.”

“What are you talking about? Sick people should rest.”

“You came all this way, so I should at least offer you some tea.”

This is the time to bring out my dormant hospitality spirit—when else would I use it?

“Just rest.”

“…Okay.”

…I decided to let my hospitality spirit sleep a little longer.

That said, I couldn’t sleep with Fumi-senpai at home, right? Closing my eyes just made my heartbeat too loud to fall asleep.

Honestly, I respect her for wearing that huge damn hat in this heat. If it were me, I’d be cursing the character designer forever.

That thing must be killing her neck. Hope she doesn’t get a herniated disc…

“Is this it? …Ah, got it.”

Fumi-senpai came over carrying something on a tray.

“Ta-da! I made rice porridge!”

First off, that “Ta-da!” is adorable. That confident vibe is irresistible.

Also, I want to thank her with every fiber of my being for making me this feast of rice porridge. Looks like my last supper is decided.

“…I’m happy. I… I’m really touched.”

“You’re making me blush, getting so excited.”

“There’s no need to be embarrassed. I get to eat such wonderful porridge!”

“Well, I’m glad you’re happy.”

“Thank you.”

I want to eat it, but once I do, it’ll be gone. It feels wasteful to eat this precious porridge.

But it’d be rude not to eat it.

I used to make fun of them, but now I think I get why people take pictures before eating.

…But! It’s polite to eat it before it gets cold!

“Let’s eat.”

I was forced into the ultimate choice, but politeness won out.

…Why does it always win?

“It’s hot, so should I blow on it for you?”

…Huh?

It’s hot, so should I blow on it for you?…What?

W-Well, I have to ask, right? If I refuse here, Tokidoki Otaku would be ruined.

Is that okay? You made the porridge and you’re blowing on it for me?

You won’t ask for money later, right? Well, even if you did, I’d pay.

“Uh, ah… heh heh. …I’ll cool it myself.”

You big idiot!

Why am I chickening out at such a perfect opportunity?!

Stop grinning like an idiot! Reflect on yourself more!

You chicken-hearted bastard! It’s way too early for Christmas!

“Yeah? Be careful not to burn yourself.”

“Hehe, okay.”

…I wanted her to blow on it for me.
