“Fuwaa~”

Miyu, who was sleeping on my lap, yawned loudly. She looked like a cat.

“Eh? Did I fall asleep?”

The way she rubs her eyelids is also cat-like.

“You slept soundly.”

Miyu slept on my lap for about two whole hours. How can she sleep on someone’s lap for so long?

“Now then, we have to go shopping for dinner soon.”

“Okay~”

◇◇◇◇

After that, We left the apartment together.

Miyu immediately wraps her arms around me. In the past, I used to feel embarrassed because I could feel her breasts, but now it’s just an everyday thing. I’ll say it again, we are definitely not dating. Really. Miyu’s apartment is next to mine, but we’re not living together. 

We live in Amakubo 3-chome, which is just a minute walk from Tsukuha University. I know a minute walk sounds like a joke, but I’m telling the truth.

Tsukuha University is a comprehensive university built in Tsukunama City. It has a huge campus that stretches more than 4km from north to south, and it’s like having a city inside the university campus.

A minute walk from the campus is very nice, but it has its drawbacks. It takes 15 minutes to walk to Sakura, where there are many supermarkets and drugstores. There are also restaurants in Amakubo 3-chome, but we want to save money as much as possible.

“What do you want to eat today?”

This is the standard phrase Miyu asks me every time we go shopping.

“Anything is fine.” (TLN: what are u, a girl?)

I gave her a lazy reply.

“I always say that’s the problem, don’t I?”

Miyu complains with her lips pouting. She told me that it would be better if I tell her what I want.

“Everything that Miyu makes is delicious.” (sheesh)

“Complimenting me won’t get you anywhere.”

Miyu turns her face away. We’ve known each other long enough to sense that she’s hiding her embarrassment.

“No, it’s true.”

We headed east along the road lit by the setting sun. Even though it’s called the Academic City, it is still a rural area. Except for the endless rows of street trees. There are only a handful of stores.

We walked for 20 minutes. We arrived at Midori, a large supermarket.

“I’m thinking of going mainly with mushrooms and fish, is that okay?”

Miyu asked me as I pushed the cart. She seemed to have decided what she wanted after all.

“For tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and the day after that~♪”

She threw vegetables, fish, and meat into the cart. I’m not good at cooking myself, so I let Miyu handle it. As I watched her throwing the ingredients into the cart, I saw a familiar face.

“Asakura-san, Good evening.”

It was the guy who had been targeting Miyu during the day. He looked a little frightened. Suddenly, Miyu stopped humming.

“Good evening. So, what can I do for you?”

Miyu’s voice switched to a cold one.

“It’s not so much of a question. What’s up with you and that guy over there?”

He seemed to be curious about me being next to Miyu, but it was best not to talk about it.

“Not only did you approach me with an ulterior motive, but you’re also prying into my affairs? That’s disgusting.”

Miyu verbally stabbed him last time, and she’s going after him again.

“No, I’m sorry. Please excuse me.” 

The male student backed away from us. I believe it was Yasui.

‘I wish she could be more gentle with him.’

If Miyu could do that, she wouldn’t have much trouble.

“It’s still cold, so how about some hot pot?”

Miyu was already back to her normal smile. I knew this expression fit her best. As soon as we came back home, she started to fill the refrigerator with food.

“I’m going to get ready, so wait a minute.”

“Yes~”

She’s frying in a pan and chopping up mushrooms with a knife. I don’t know how she does it so skillfully. I don’t think I could ever imitate her.

“It’s done. Can you help me carry it?”

“Okay~”

We quickly served dinner and started eating.

“These sauteed mushrooms are delicious.”

“I am glad then, I’ve been experimenting with some recipes.”

The menu consisted of sauteed mushrooms, grilled hokke(fish) and rice.

“Thank you as always.”

We talked as we ate.

“For what?”

“Like, you cook for me all the time.”

“I just want to do it. And it’s enough that you say it’s delicious.”

I could tell that she was genuinely saying that.

“I hope so.”

“Stay still, you have a little mushroom on your mouth.” (TLN: I’m pretty sure the guy should be doing this ._.)

Miyu wipes my mouth with a wet wipe. I was embarrassed at first, but I’ve gotten used to this scene.

~~~~~

After seeing Miyu off to her room, I laid down in my room.

‘Miyu’s really worth it, isn’t she?’

I don’t know what kind of girl would take such good care of a guy she’s not even dating.

‘I want to do something about it’

I want to help her get over her trauma in case she finds someone she likes.

‘Well, I’ve wondered if she has feelings for me…’

In the end, it must have been a misunderstanding, Because we’re this close to each other, and yet, she didn’t seem to be that aware of me.
