Izumu Karin, 17 years old. A cafeteria owner's only daughter, who's poor at cooking

Karin's childhood friend who's very good at cooking. Kakihara Reiji, 17 years old.

Sensei: That was wonderful, Izumi-san!!

Sensei: ...However the result wasn't as good

Karin: That...that was just an accident that happens once in a while
Sensei: "once in a while" becomes "always" if it happens everytime!
2 students: You could call this an art at some level

Page 4

Sensei: Don't get involve in the cooking for cultural festival!!
Karin: But Sensei...

Reiji: Sample

Karin: ...Reiji....

Page 5

Karin: Did you see him!?

Karin: Argh! He's so annoying!!

Karin: He said "sample", who does he think he is!?
Black hair: She's still on that?
Brown hair: ...yep

Brown hair: Kakihara's good at cooking even though he's a boy~~

Page 6

Brown hair: His mother passed away when he was just little, so he is used to do all of the chores
Black hair: Uuu~~ It's so sad
Karin: It's obvious that he's good, my mother is his master after all

???: Well, even if he wasn't good at cooking, Kakihara is still pretty attractive and his grades are good too, right?
???: Yep, I heard he's good at sports too and a lot of clubs wants him to join

???: You can't relax even though you're his childhood friend. Someone would take him away, you know?
Karin: HUH?

Page 7

Karin: Ta...take him away!? I don't know what do you mean by that!//If you want him, just take him...He's not not mine anyway
???: Easy to read reaction~~
Text: Let me have one

???: ...Karin, what...is that?
Karin: Eh? it's a fried egg....

???: I...I see...

Page 8

Reiji: ~~~Urghhh
Karin: Wai...who said you can eat it!

Reiji: It's crunchy because you put in too many sugar//You should've put in broth and sauce too and...don't put in strange stuff
Text: I don't know what it tastes like anymore...
Karin: I made it with desert in mind!
Reiji: It's too early for you to do variation because You can't even make the basic fried egg

Karin: ...Are you picking a fight with me?
Reiji: I'm just warning you not to waste resources

Page 9

???: It always got me thinking
???: Could it be they're indirectly showing off how good of a couple they are to us?

Both: NO WE'RE NOT!!

Page 10

Karin: I'm home

Yukari: Welcome home, Karin

Karin: What are you looking at?
Yukari: An advertisement of that shopping center in front of the train station

Page 11

Karin: Oh the shopping center that was finished about half year ago? I've never gone there yet though, what's wrong?
Yukari: Oh, it's nothing. I just saw in the advertisement that they have 9 restaurants there...//I thought they could be our big rivals

Karin: Oh don't worry

Karin: No matter how many of those chain restaurants around, they still can't compete with mom's cooking!
Yukari: Haha I'd like to think that way too

Page 12

Karin: Dad, we had a cooking practice today

Karin: And Reiji mocked my cooking again//I think he doesn't know what the real flavour is!
Karin: But I won't lose to Reiji, because I already promised dad that I will protect mom and this cafeteria!

Page 13

Yukari: You guys had a fight again?
Karin: It was his fault, he came to me and started to speaking ill about my cooking

Yukari: But you guys were so close when you were little
Karin: I forgot~~~

Yukari: I even have the picture when both of you took a bath together~~
Karin: EH!?

Karin: N...No way...
Yukari: Hahaha~~

Reiji: Good afternoon

Page 14

Karin: I don't believe that I ever took a bath together with Reiji!!

Yukari: Ahh welcome Reiji-kun
Karin: Eh...!?

Karin: Wai...

Karin: Wha...what are you doing here!?
Reiji: I...I'm not here for you that's for sure

Page 15

Karin: Gah!
<slams door
Yukari: Hey Karin!

Yukari: I'm really sorry, I don't know what got into her...
Reiji: It's ok, I'm used to it

Reiji: I was thinking if you would taste the kakuni* I made
*Kakuni: Japanese food, stew made with cubed meat or fish
Yukari: Wow, it looks good!

Yukari: Wow, it's delicious

Page 16

Reiji: Really!?
Yukari: Yes, I'd even allow you too sell it at our cafeteria~~

Reiji: I removed a bit of the fat meat as you taught me the other day and the taste became fresher
Yukari: It would taste bad if you remove it too much so you have to measure it correctly and that's the hard part//But Reiji-kun you did it wonderfully, you're really good at cooking

Reiji: No, It's because I have a great sensei

Page 17

Yukari: Haha, no matter how many times you flatter me, I can only give you my daughter you know?
Reiji: Eh?...that's not
Karin: What are you saying mom...!?

Yukari: You improved your cooking skill naturally since your mom passed away...

Yukari: With your skill I can leave this cafeteria to you with relief in the future
Reiji: Eh?...N,no

Reiji: I still have some way to go
Yukari: Haha no need to be embarassed~~

Page 18

Karin: I'm going now
Yukari: Have a good day and be careful

Reiji: Hey, morning!

Karin: ....Morning

Reiji: What's wrong? you look sleepy//You can't improve your cooking skill in one night you know? you need to have sense
Karin: I wasn't practicing cooking!

Page 19

Karin: My dad's death anniversary is near you know?

Reiji: I see...Well what did you make this year?

Karin: A yukata*//it matches with mine
*light cotton kimono worn in the summer
Karin: I want to make different stuff this year because the years before I always made sweater or socks, I'm afraid dad got bored with them.

Reiji: Well obviously you can't present your cooking to your dad in heaven

Karin: Do, don't make fun of me!
Karin: I can cook too you know!?
