Taiyou was surprised not only at Sakura being there, but at how her apparel had changed . It wasn’t strange, lewd, or eccentric by any means . It was actually pretty normal: an apron . Sakura had been wearing that apron when she greeted him in the entrance hall .
“Umm…why are you here?”
Taiyou was so dazed that it took a tremendous amount of effort to ask that .
“I’m just here to visit a relative . ”
“Relative?”
“The house of my younger sister and her mother-in-law . ”
Sakura said calmly but with a hint of mischief .
She was referring to her half sister Youran and her half sister Pochi’s mother-in-law, Kohaku .
So sure, you could say that this was the house of her relatives . It was a reasonable explanation . Not that Taiyou was the kind of person to accept it head-on . This was Sakura they were talking about . She always enjoyed wordplay and scheming things beneath what she said . Clearly, there was a whole other reason for her coming .
“So what’s the actual reason?”
As if she saw Taiyou’s flabbergasted face, Youran asked in his place .
“I made a promise . ”
“To come over?”
“No . ”
Sakura giggled .
“Something about wanting to make someone gasp in surprise . ”
“Well then you succeeded . ”
Youran said as she looked up at Taiyou with blank eyes . As a matter of fact, he did feel that way right now . Who would have expected Sakura to be here, and this quickly? He had not anticipated in the slightest that this would occur . But now that he understood her intentions, he had calmed down a considerable amount .
“I was legitimately surprised . ”
Taiyou said honestly .
“Yes, as I intended . ”
“Did you come over here right away after that?”
“Yes, after contacting Azumaysan . ”
“Oh, Kohaku-san . Yeah, she would play a prank like that . ”
“So yeah, here you go . ”
Sakura said, giving Taiyou slippers . This action was reminiscent of how a resident of this home might treat a guest, but Taiyou paid it no heed, putting the slippers on .
“Hey, what about mine?”
Youran objected, having not been offered any herself .
“Don’t worry . I’m sure that you will be just fine, Shingetsu-sama . ”
“What? How so?”
“Now then, please make your way in . ”
Ignoring Youran, Sakura invited Taiyou inside . The moment the door was opened, he could smell a lovely aroma . Breakfast was on top of the table: brown toast, sunny-side up fried eggs, and bacon .
“I received some helpful advice in the making of this food . I made sure that the toast was of the puffy variety, with low heat . The fried egg yolk is soft-boiled . ”
“Did Kohaku-san teach you that?”
“No, the Hayakawa sisters did . ”
“Yeah, they’re more knowledgeable in that regard . ”
That made sense to Taiyou . When it came to household affairs and anything related to Taiyou, they understood that the most . Heck, they understood that better than Taiyou himself . He didn’t even realize until now that he preferred springy toast to crumbly toast .
“So where is everyone?”
“They have gone out . Apparently they went to Miyagi-san’s family’s house . ”
“Aoba’s?”
“Yes . Apparently her mothers were on some overseas trip and said ‘we brought back gifts so come and get some’ . ”
“Hm, that tone sounds a lot like Atsuko-san . ”
“I’m sure that the one who suggested it was Mio-san . ”
Youran said, and Taiyou nodded .
Aoba’s three mothers: Atsuko, Mio, and Nazuna .
On the surface, Atsuko appeared to be the most assertive one, but when it came to push and shove, Mio was the most adamant one when it came to Aoba . It wasn’t difficult at all to imagine that Mio had proposed such a thing .
“In other words, the only ones in this mansion are the three of us . ”
“Yes, it would appear so . ”
“Is that right . ”
Taiyou nodded, reaching the dining table . On the table was breakfast for one- just one . Noticing this, Youran asked,
“Hey, what about my portion?”
“Don’t worry . I’m sure that you will be alright, Shingetsu-sama . ”
“Seriously, how is this alright!?”
Youran raised her voice, and much like earlier, Sakura ignored her . She handed some freshly brewed tea to Taiyou . Of course, there was none for Youran .
“Here you are . ”
“Thank you very much . ”
(I wonder if she’s plotting something again?) thought Taiyou as he drank black tea and stuffed his face full of toast, bacon, and egg .
“Delicious . ”
That was his honest opinion .
The breakfast was already perfectly appealing to the eye, but that sense of perfection was also captured in the taste as well .
“This is seriously good, Sakursan . Super good . ”
“That is only because the ingredients were good . ”
“I must say that there are some girls who can cook with good ingredients and make the food taste like garbage . ”
“Yes, well that is a talent in and of itself . ”
“To add further, there are also those who make you lose your appetite with how they cook the food . ”
“Oh? How so?”
“Like cutting cabbage to shreds with a katana . Only takes one second for a perfect finishing touch . ”
Taiyou said, shrugging his shoulders and smiling .
“I could probably guess who you’re talking about . ”
“By the way, they can also make a sashimi garnish . And that also takes one second . ”
“Well, I almost want to bring a high-speed camera along with me now . ”
“Let’s do that when the time comes . ”
Taiyou laughed, asking for seconds .
