“—So, is there anything else that has changed in your school life?”
“No, not really.”
“Well then, I’ll give you the same medication as before.”
“Thank you.”
After school, today was hospital visit day, so I came to my usual doctor’s office.
I have been going to the doctor every month for about two years since I was in the second year of junior high school.
Recently, the communication with the doctor has not been any different.
“Should go to the supermarket and buy a lunch box…no, I’m off tomorrow Saturday, so I’ll have breakfast…”
I’ve always prepared my own meals, so it’s not like living alone has changed anything.
“What a pain…I’m in a bad mood.”
Talking to girls is inevitably tiring.
I rode my bicycle for a while and entered a supermarket.
I start from the vegetable section, but…I can’t think of anything because I don’t have the energy to cook for myself.
“…Let’s just look at the bento section.”
Why don’t I just buy two at random and eat one tomorrow?
…At times like this, none of the bentos look good.
“—i, hey.”
If I don’t have an appetite, I don’t know what I’m going to eat.
“Hey, look, look, I know you can see, Tsukasa kun !”
“I can see you. Why are you here?”
“It’s not you, it’s Mei chan ! My house is right around here !”
“Okay, you must be Mei, this is my neighborhood.”
“Hm? Is that so?”
“Yeah, but I don’t live in the house I used to live in. I live alone in an apartment I rented because the school is a little far.”
Actually, I wanted to get out of the house.
“Oh, I see… so you’re going out to buy dinner?”
“Yeah.”
“Heh….so you don’t cook for yourself?”
“Ah, sometimes I do, sometimes I don’t.”
“Oh, you can cook for yourself?”
“Yeah, my ex-mother neglected me most of the time.”
“….I’m sorry, I stepped on another land mine.”
“Don’t worry about it. I’m a minefield, so if you worry about it, you won’t be able to have a conversation.”
“…..I-I’ll still be careful !”
I don’t think you can.
“Oh, so what about your sister?”
“My mother liked my sister, so she used to take her out to eat. I cooked the….hm? Did I tell you about her?”
“Y-you did ! You were always reading a book and looking blank, so you probably don’t remember it !”
“Oh, I see.”
“….Phew, that was close.”
“Hm, what did you say?”
“Eh? Oh, so you’re buying bento today?”
“Yeah, but I don’t know what I’m going to eat.”
“Oh, I know ! That happens to me too !”
“Right?”
She understands.
“I really wish you were a man.”
“…I’m not sure if I should be happy, but I have mixed feelings.”
“But I don’t know what to do…maybe I should go to a ramen shop…”
“T-then ! I’ll cook for you at Tsukasa kun’s house.”
“Sorry, I can’t eat food made by a woman.”
“You can’t even do that…..I guess you can’t even go out to eat?”
“Most ramen shops are made by men, right? I can see the kitchen.”
“So that’s why you’re having ramen…”
I avoid restaurants with women in the kitchen.
“….How about this?”
“What is it?”
“Ehehe…you know, do you wanna go out for yakiniku with me?”
“Oh.”
This guy….what kind of high school boy doesn’t like meat?
