36th Meal
Onigiri Making and High School Girls: Revenge Part 3
“…Are you sure you don't want him to eat it?”
When she asked her so after returning to the first-year classroom, Mahiru shook his head once.
“Un. I'm sure the Ramen would be better than my Onigiri, and I felt kind of bad about keeping him from eating this...”
“In other words, you got scared, right?”
“Ugh…!”
Hiyori thinks that even if she had said it right then and there, Yuu would have accepted it…“Please eat my bento instead!” I think it's hard to say that to people who are about to go to a popular restaurant. Especially in Mahiru's case, who is not very good at cooking.
“I'm really sorry, Hiyori. Even though you helped me out so early in the morning…”
“It’s fine, but…what are you going to do about those Onigiri’s?”
“U-Un…What should I do…?”
Mahiru looks down at the large bento box in her hand and looks at a loss for what to do with it, which is quite large since it was originally intended for one adult male plus Aoba. Incidentally, although I said so in the evening, Mahiru and Hiyori brought a large amount of Fried Rice Bento that Hiyori's mother had made from the remnants of her failed rice balls. Therefore, it seemed difficult for the two of them to eat all of them by themselves.
“Nee~ Nee~ Hiyori~ Hima~”
Then, she heard her friend's voice.
“What are you two going to do for lunch~? I'm going to the store with Yukiho, and if you guys want, I can buy some for the both of you~”
“Ehh…No, we’re fine. Hiyori and I brought our own lunch…”
“Eh~ I'm jealous~ I should have asked my mom to make me lunch too. I'm sure it's crowded with people buying now…”
“Ikr~ and lunch is going to end soon~”
“!”
As Aki and Yukiho exchanged wry smiles, Mahiru looked at the Onigiri bento box and their faces alternately—and then said,
“U-Uhm, if you don’t mind…you can eat it some of my lunch. I-I think I made a little too much…”
“”Eh?””
When she opened the lid of the bento box and showed it to her friends, they blinked their eyes as if surprised about the contents.
“Uwaah~ Onigiri~ Did you make them, Mahiru~”
“The amount of food is amazing. I mean, why did you make a Bento that’s enough for more than 3 people?”
“T-That’s…A-Actually, I was going to give this to Onii-san, but I didn’t have the chance to…”
“HA!? Why are you trying to act like normie by giving him a bento box!?”
“N-Normie…?”
“There goes Yukiho’s inferiority complex time~”
“What do you mean by that!?”
“But, is it all right~? Don’t you want that Onii-san to eat it~?”
Mahiru almost choked at Aki's question, but nodded her head in the same manner as before.
“...I will make it for Onii-san again someday. So it’s okay if you two eat it…”
“.......”
“...Sigh, I see~”

Hearing Mahiru's answer, Yukiho and Aki looked at each other and then glanced at her mother, AKA Hiyori…They look at her as if asking, “Is OK to eat it?”
As for Hiyori, she thinks that Yuu should eat the bento box, but since that’s no longer possible, there’s no point in leaving it behind. Even if they take it home and eat it, leaving it in the classroom for the rest of the afternoon is probably not a good idea in terms of food hygiene.
(Well, she's right, it's probably something she could always make again and give to him…)
After thinking for a moment, Hiyori nodded back at them. Then, after a slight pause, both Yukiho and Aki nodded their heads in approval. The time between the two was only 0.5 seconds, by the way.
“I understand. Then I'll be grateful for that Nomie’s Bento.”
“U-Un. I hope you like it…”
“Yey~! Thanks for the food~!”
Mahiru nervously watches as her friends pick up her homemade Onigiri—Then after a quick bite.
“...Hmm! It’s delicious!”
“R-Really!?”
When Yukio's eyes widened in surprise, Mahiru's face lit up.
“I can't believe it, it's delicious~ I don't remember Mahiru being such a good cook~”
“Right!? She used to knock over the curry pot at camp when we were in junior high school!”
“F-Forget about that!”
“Hey, hey. What are you guys eating?”
“Ah, Ryo-kun and Yuzuru~ Look~ It’s Mahiru's homemade Onigiri~!”
“...!? A-Asahi’s homemade…!?”
“Hehehe it's delicious, you know~? Well, I won't share it with you~”
“Wha…!? F-Fuyushima, you bastard…!”
When the usual six people were getting noisy, Hiyori looked at Mahiru’s face, who was sitting next to her.
“...I see…it was done properly and deliciously…”
She was sure that's why she really wanted that “Onii-san” to eat it.
I wonder what she would have looked like if he had complimented her on how good it tasted as her friends did.
“...Come on, you should eat quickly, too. Lunch is going to be over soon.”
“U-Un, you’re right.”
As if to disguise her thoughts, Hiyori urged Mahiru to have lunch, and once again turned her attention to the Onigiri bento she had worked so hard to prepare.
