Far from tearing the silk, Himekoās screams echoed through the Kirishima household in the morning
I, who heard her voice muttered, āHonestlyā¦ ā, as I was turning the eggs in a rectangular frying pan
Iām currently making Dashimaki Tamago, itās one of my specialties,with a strong flavour of bonito flakes.
It was a bit disappointing that I had some chopped up potherb mustard to clean out the refrigerator. However, I just ate it because it gave the dish a fun texture
[Nnn, why didnāt you wake me up?!]
[No, I mean, just look at the clock]
[Itās almost 7:30!]
[You can justā¦ dash to school, right?]
[If I dash to schoolā¦ Uhm, I think Iāll manage it]
[Your school is close anyway]
Himeko, who still has her sleeping habits, sticks out her tongue with a small, āteheā.
I had my thoughts about the move. However, the fact that her school hours were greatly reduced was something she was really happy about
[Onii, whatās that?]
[Itās my lunch. I made it from yesterday leftovers with some dashi rolls added. I found something similar to this at the school cafeteria yesterday]
[I see. Moreover, whereās my part, Onii?]
[Alright, alright. Hereās your lunch]
[As expected from Onii, I knew youād understand]
I felt a chill when I remembered yesterday's cafeteria problem. Well, a crowded cafeteria counts as a problem for me.
The way people were rushing towards the food was like soldiers in a battlefield. It must have been something usual for students in the city
But I wasnāt trained for something like that. I didnāt have the courage to charge into the battlefield(cafeteria) every day, let alone once a while.
So I prepared a lunch box. I also made one for my sister since I thought that the same thing happened in her school too.

āāā
Although we had plenty of time to spare, it wasnāt the time to relax.
After a quick breakfast and preparations, Himeko and I left the house at the same time and locked the door
[Hot...]
[Itās hot...]
The moment we stepped outside, both Himeko and I said the same line
Unlike in the countryside, there was no bare ground, and the asphalt stored the heat. There were no trees to block the sun, and the early summer sun was baking my skin
Unlike Tsukinose, the temperature in this town is extremely high during summer. Both Himeko and I walked to school together, feeling depressed from this heat
[Well then, Iām going this way, see you later]
[Ok]
I parted ways with Himeko, after quite a while, I missed the coolness on the countryside
The number of people and the lack of greenery made me aware that I had arrived in a new place
Itās not that I hate the idea of moving. I just need time to get used to this.
(Ah, speaking of which)
As I was thinking about the countryside, I remembered something a bit bothering.
It was the ridged flower bed a the back of the school building that had reminded him of Tsukinose
Zucchini flowers bloom in the morning and wilt by early afternoon.
Thatās why, the only time to pollinate zucchini is at the morning
In my mind, I saw a girl who works hard but is always in a hurry
(I wonder if sheāll be okayā¦ )
I went to the flower bed right after I passed the school gate
