Since I’ve Entered the World of Romantic Comedy Manga, I’ll Do My Best to Make the Heroine Who Doesn’t Stick With the Hero Happy. - Chapter 67: In The Room Next Door.

“Ah! It collapsed again!”

Shiho Fujise looked at the Dashimake egg on her plate and muttered in disappointment.

This was her second attempt to make a dashimaki egg, and while it was the best she could do, it was clearly not as good as the previous two dishes.

“If you were making dark matter yesterday, or even just an hour ago, you’re doing pretty well, you know.”

“Yes, you are. It’s a little misshapen, but I don’t think that the taste will change that much.”

“But isn’t the texture of a rolled egg also important?”

“I guess.”

“I know, right? I really want to make something fluffy and soft! Okay, can I try one more time?”

“Yeah, sure. I got plenty of ingredients.”

“I just looked in the big refrigerator and it was full of stuff.”

With that the three of them ate what they made and began to cook again.

“By the way, Hisamura-kun and Sei-chan haven’t come back yet.”

“Yeah, it’s taking longer than I thought.”

It has been more than ten minutes since they’ve left the kitchen.

“I’m sure Hisamura-kun is comforting Sei-chan, but will she be okay?”

“Eh? Sei-san? What happened?”

Rinke was surprised at Shiho’s words and asked.

Rinke thought that the two of them were just going to the other room to get some bento boxes.

“Sei-chan was depressed, so Tojoin-san took care of her and left her alone with Hisamura-kun. Right, Tojoin-san?”

“If she stays depressed, it’s going to make me sick.”

“I didn’t notice at all.”

“Sei-chan did her best to hide it, too. I don’t think anyone other than me, Tojoin-san and her boyfriend Hisamura-kun would have noticed.”

“You make it sound like I’m close to Shimada-san.”

Tojoin seemed a little uncomfortable with her words.

“We’re good friends, right? Even today, because Sei-chan asked you to, you even lent me this kitchen.”

“It’s not a favor, it’s a punishment. If it wasn’t a punishment, I wouldn’t be helping you cook, my love rival.”

“Love rival?”

Rinke’s eyes widened as another piece of information came up that she didn’t know about, and she muttered the words quietly.

“Eh? You guys are love rivals?”

“Oh, did I not mention that?”

“Oh, I never told you that. Huh, that’s embarrassing.”

“O-Oh, I didn’t know that. Can I ask who you two like?”

“It’s a guy named Yuuichi Shigemoto. He’s in the same grade as us at school.”

“Ahh, Shigemoto-san?”

“Eh? You know him?”

“My brother brought him home a while ago, and that’s how we met.”

“I see. Rinke, please don’t fall in love with Yuuichi. You and I have built a good relationship this way, and I don’t want to ruin it.”

“O-Okay.”

Rinke took it to heart with some trepidation as Tojoin gave her a very nice smile and a warning.

“That’s why I’m not that close with Shimada-san. Fujise-san is a love rival, while Shimada-san is more of a normal rival.”

“Rivalry? Is that in terms of sports?”

“Yes, I suppose so. I’ve been almost unbeatable in my studies and in sports, but this was the first time I’ve ever been beaten that badly.”

“It’s also amazing that you have never lost a single time before.”

Rinke met Tojoin for the first time today, so she had no idea how superhuman Kaori Tojoin’s abilities were.

She has never fallen out of first place in any grade in her studies, and she’s better at sports than most people in the club.

However, for the first time in her life, she has lost in a head to head fight against a person named Sei Shimada.

She didn’t have any players from the basketball team but she still played against Tojoin on equal footing.

Rather, Tojoin, who had three basketball players on her team, had the advantage, but she was still completely outplayed by Sei.

When you are beaten up that badly, you have no choice but to admit defeat.

“I’ll definitely pay her back for that, sooner or later.”

Tojoin said with a fearless smile on her face.

“Fufu, I’m glad to see that Tojoin-san has become friends with Sei-chan.”

“No, we don’t get along that well… Oh, forget it. By the way, Hisamura-kun and Shimada-san are really late. I wonder if they’re kissing or something.”

“K-Kiss!?”

Rinke’s cheeks reddened as she reacted to Tojoin’s casual remark.

“No matter how much they want to, they probably haven’t done it. I mean they’ve only been dating for two weeks.”

“Oh, you’re so pure-hearted, Rinke. If it were me, I’d kiss Yuichi passionately on the exact day we started dating.”

“E-Exact day…–”

The words made Rinke blush even more, but Shiho didn’t look any different and just smiled.

“Fufu, I’ll be the one that goes out with Shigemoto-kun so you can have that fantasy with someone else, Tojoin-san.”

“Oh, that’s very nice of you. Although, you’re the only one who’s allowed to say such delusional things in your dreams.”

“If I was dreaming, I’d be doing something even more amazing, so don’t worry.”

“Hey, hey, I can’t tell if you guys are fighting or getting along.”

“We’re getting along.”

“We’re having a fight.”

“Which one is it…?”

If it had been just Shiho and Tojoin, there was a good chance they would have been arguing the whole time, but the presence of Rinke ended the argument right there.
