Today’s work went especially smoothly. o(* ̄▽ ̄*)ブ I actually went home earlier than usual~

To celebrate this memorable event, I decided to cook for myself today.

To be honest, my cooking is the most delicious–or at least, it suits my tastes perfectly. However, because I am usually too busy with work, I essentially have little to no time to cook for myself.

Since there was an extra person living with me now, I politely asked him what he would like to eat.

At my words, this guy unexpectedly perked up and suddenly said he would go shopping with me to the supermarket.

I was a little moved by his proposal.

I usually order things online and have them directly shipped to my home. It had been a long time since I went to the supermarket.

Thinking about it carefully, the last time I went to the supermarket with others was in elementary school… Wait, it seems like ‘others’ was this sand sculpture?!

In this way, to revisit our childhood, we chose to go to a supermarket with the same name as the one we had gone to when we were younger.

As soon as I stepped through the doors, I felt as if I had gone back in time.

After so many years, the atmosphere in the supermarket didn’t change at all. Even the music on the radio was similar to the one in the past.

We found an empty shopping cart and began wandering around aimlessly.

Several times, this sand sculpture wanted to sit in the cart like a child and have me push him, but I righteously refused.

I would never allow him to do such a shameless thing in a public place with so many people!

This guy seemed a little depressed after I refused, so I allowed him to push the cart when he had asked.

He safely pushed the cart in the beginning, but it wasn’t long before this guy discovered a new way to play with it.

He used the cart as a scooter. After a few quick steps, he would put all his body weight on the cart and used the inertia he had gained to slide a short distance.

QAQ I could finally understand Squidward’s feelings in Spongebob. Having such a sand sculpture by my side, I really wanted to beat him up!

But that wasn’t the end. When he passed the vegetable section, this guy suddenly took a cauliflower and gave it to me affectionately, as if he was giving fresh flowers to a beauty.

Hehe, cauliflowers as fresh flowers? So to him, anyone who can cook well are beauties?

Expressionless, I put the cauliflower back in place and told him, “This chef doesn’t want to make cauliflowers tonight; this chef wants to eat tofu1.”

I didn’t think there was anything wrong with my words, but he suddenly blushed. 

After pondering for a while, I realized my words were indeed a little ambiguous.

But this guy isn’t a girl. →_→ Why was he blushing like a girl?!


Translator’s Note:

1. Most of you probably know this, but “eating tofu” means to take advantage of someone in a sexual way.
