[bunniefuu]

Kenta-san.

Yeah?

I

Want more.

Want to try a kiss?

Wait!

Let's stop here for today.

I've already heated up the bathwater.

Do you want to take a shower first?

Then

I'll go take a shower first.

Want to try a kiss?

I can't believe I was still hung up on that old thing.

Fukuyama-san.

You haven't been smiling much today.

I don't usually smile that much

Yes you are, for sure.

No, I'm not

Did you two have a fight?

Right, you have to prepare

extra delicious meat after a fight.

Extra delicious meat

What's this?

This is a special salt plate I prepared for today.

Rock salt?

This board was cut from a large block of salt.

We're going to grill the meat

directly on the salt plate today.

Presenting

The extra delicious meat!

To be honest,

Seeing that she didn't bring up what happened that night

relieved me.

It's amazing to be able to grill meat on a salt plate.

It already smells so good!

If you overcook the tenderloin, it will become tough.

Just make sure it's cooked through.

Let's eat!

So tender, it melts in your mouth.

The saltiness is just right.

It really brings out the natural sweetness of the meat.

Using thick-cut meat was a good choice.

This is even better than what

you'd get at a fancy restaurant!

Who is there?

What's wrong?

Dad?

[A sizzling new life for newlyweds]

[Zero days dating, let's get married first and then fall in love]

I was just happened to be nearby

Is that so?

What do you mean "just happened to be nearby"?

At least call first.

Sorry.

No worries, thank you for coming.

Want to have some barbecue together?

Sorry, the tenderloin is all gone.

But it's no problem.

Wait for me a moment.

Don't bother

It's great to see you doing well.

Dad too.

Does Kenta usually cook?

I cook sometimes too.

It's really nice to have a barbecue in the courtyard.

When the weather is nice,

we all grill lots of things here together.

I see.

I've even learned to start a fire myself!

You?

Sorry to keep you waiting.

I heard you likes to drink.

Speaking of alcohol, I actually brought this.

You don't have to.

It's shochu!

[Japanese distilled liquor]

Dad, you're such a glutton!

Adding sparkling water makes it really refreshing.

Well then

Kenta-san, what are you doing?

It's a light side dish that goes well with shochu.

Chicken skewers,

cut into pieces and threaded onto bamboo sticks.

Grill it slowly on a salt plate.

Then, finely chop the perilla leaves.

After the meat is cooked

top it with plum paste and perilla strips.

The perilla plum chicken skewers are ready!

Please eat while it's hot.

This looks so delicious!

Delicious!

The saltiness of the rock salt is perfect.

Paired with perilla and plum sauce, it's very refreshing.

Great!

Is it because you grilled it over charcoal?

The meat is especially tender.

That's one of the reason

It's because Kenta-san grilled it, it's extra delicious!

Maybe so.

Chihiro-san

Cheers!

This is really good!

The aroma of sake lees is intoxicating,

and it goes down so smoothly.

Good!

I'm going to eat this with the chicken skewers.

It goes really well with the plum meat skewers.

Right?

I'll try some too.

She fell asleep.

I'm so sorry, I left all the cleaning to you.

It's no problem at all.

She makes a special trip from Tokyo to see me every week.

She must be tired.

Chihiro.

Dad.

Isn't she pretty?

Wink one eye.

I finished drawing it.

You must be worried about her.

Chihiro is an only child.

And her mother passed away early.

Yes

I always stayed in the university,

buried in my research.

I see.

I made her pretty lonely before.

Although I thought I was doing

my best to raise her with love,

but there were probably a lot of things I didn't notice.

That's why

Seeing her so happy with you

My heart just warmed up.

Father-in-law

Thank you, Kenta-kun.

Once again, I entrust Chihiro to you.

It's me who should be thanking you

For raising Chihiro into such a wonderful person.

Kenta-kun,

Father-in-law,

Kenta-kun,

Father-in-law,

Kenta-kun,

Father-in-law,

Kenta-kun,

Father-in-law,

So you're awake

I want to have some coffee.

Coffee? Coming right up!

Kenta-kun, wait a minute!

Let me make the coffee.

Here you go.

- Thank you.

- Be careful, it's hot!

- Thanks.

- Here you go.

It smells so good!

Then I won't be polite.

Let's drink.

It tastes good just like always.

This is so good!

Father-in-law, you make a really good coffee.

It's the only thing I'm good at.

You used to make coffee every morning

when Mom was still around, right?

You remember that?

Whenever I miss this taste, I'll come find you.

Chihiro.

Dad, don't get so sentimental all of a sudden.

Sorry.

Chihiro.

You married the right person.

You too?

Chihiro-san

Kenta-san.

Sorry, my dad suddenly came over today

It's okay.

I had some drinks

so I couldn't drive him to the station.

It's totally fine.

My dad also said he wanted to have a drink with you.

I should be thanking him

He gave me a lot of encouragement.

Could you come to the courtyard when you're free?

Okay.

It's a home theater.

Of course, I also prepared popcorn.

Welcome to the VIP seats.

Thank you.

I'm starting.

It's so delicious, warm and good.

It's great to see you happy.

Kenta-san.

Are you still bothered about what happened that night?

You're also thinking about it, aren't you?

It was ages ago.

Would you like to hear me out?

It happened,

when I was in the second year of middle school

Senpai?

Want to try a kiss?

A kiss?

I guess not.

I really liked that senior back then.

Okay.

So, does senpai like me?

I guess so

Then summer vacation started.

I haven't seen her since then.

Thinking about it carefully

After that, I didn't know how to

get along with women anymore.

I carried those teenage

insecurities all the way into my 30s.

Thank you for telling me.

The time we've spent together has been truly happy.

But, this tremendous happiness

Makes me worry that it will disappear one day.

I can't help but become anxious.

I keep dwelling on things from so long ago.

It's really embarrassing.

Not at all.

Feelings are very delicate.

Everyone has their own unique struggles.

Chihiro-san.

I raelly like Kenta-san.

That's why,

I'm not going anywhere.

It took us a long time to get here.

I'm,

suddenly starting to get nervous

Like I said

Happiness won't run away.

I won't let happiness slip away.
