Feed the Girl

Noa: "Let's get some bread today."

Hiro: "Sounds good, since we just came from gym class. We'll be there before a line forms."

Kazumi: "Normally I'd pack my own lunch but today I didn't have time. So I am a bit hungry."

Hiro: "That's probably because you skipped breakfast too."

Kazumi: "Yes that too..."

The lunch bell rings as they walk towards the lunch stands. They get their food.

Noa: "Do you always eat by the courtyard?"

Hiro: "Well, It's nice this time of year. Have to enjoy it while you can."

Kazumi: "Summer is just around the corner."

Noa: "Yeah I still need to catch up. I'm probably going to do some makeup work during summer. It sucks that we have different school terms."

In Japan, the school year starts in April. Instead of having semesters they use a trimester system. I had to finish school 1 month ahead just to be a month behind in Japan.

Noa: "There's a party similar to melon bread that my family likes to eat. It's called a Concha which means seashell."

Kazumi: "Really?"

Noa: "Yep, in fact, there are several variants across the world. But most wouldn't know that this pastry is a thread that many countries share."

Hiro: "Who would have thought that melon bread would be so world renown."

Noa: "When you think of it that way it sounds kind of funny."

The school bell rings.

Noa: "Time for Home Ec."

Kazumi: "I have that class too."

Noa: "Cool."

Hiro: "I'm hoping to take off then cya guys later."

Noa and Kazumi: "Cya."

Later during class.

Teacher: "We're making a basic dish today Beef Bowl. Everyone get in pairs. One person can prepare the ingredients...."

Kazumi: "Do you know how to make it?"

Noa: "Not a clue."

Kazumi: "I'll show you then."

Noa: "Ok I'll try to do the prep work."

- She seems like a natural. Who would have guessed that she'd be able to cook as well.

"Want to try it?" Kazumi asks with a smile on her face.

Noa: "Sure, Let's dig in."

Noa's tongue burst with flavor.

- This is almost as good as Grandma's.

Noa: "Where'd you learn to cook like that? It was delicious."

Kazumi: "When it was just mom and myself. I wanted to help mom out so I started preparing dinners. I still make my own lunches. Since you like it so much if you want I can pack a lunch for you as well."

Noa: "I wouldn't want to impose upon you."

Kazumi: "You're not imposing I already make them for Hiro I'd just have to change my proportions."

Noa: "I suppose it's ok if it's not an inconvenience."

Kazumi: "Not at all. I want to."

Noa: "Ok as long as you don't mind."

The bell rings and noa heads to his final class.
