Kotori and Keita are eating their lunch side by side.

Kotori was eating with a smile while Keita was eating with a calm face.

Each bite Kotori makes she smiles and squeals in delight while Keita eats in silence.

Kotori glances over to Keita who was eating in a somewhat sullen or deadpan manner.

「Wagame-kun, what's wrong?」
「Nothing's wrong.」

Keita answers her question as he takes another unsatisfying bite of his lunch.

「Wanna try some of my lunch? My Okaa-san's cooking is delicious!」
「... ...I don't want any.」

He says as he takes another bite.

His answer made Kotori sad and she withdrew a bit.

A few minutes later, lunch was over, but before they can go out for lunch recess...

「Okay, before we can go outside, let me see your bento boxes. If they're empty, you may go outside.」
『Sensei! Sensei! Check mine!』

The children raise their empty bento boxes and beg for her attention so they can go out and play. A few minutes in and most of the kids had left, but Keita was still there with Kotori by his side.

AsukaTenkai : For adding the story in her reading list. Thank you! Planning to read your new book, but waiting for more chapters to be added. (Even though it's like three chapters in one ha... ha... ha... If only Wattpad had a feature where you can bookmark your favorite chapters in some else's book. That will be cool.)

Thank you all for the support c:
