To Play and Have Fun.
“Ahh, Yes. What are we playing in the first place?”
You’re the one who brought it up, and now you’re asking me about it…
“Isn’t it like shopping or karaoke?”
“Does that mean that my previous trip to buy clothes was also a game?”
The first time I brought Miyu to my house was before she told me that Miyu didn’t have any luggage with her that day, so we went to a shopping mall near our house to buy some clothes to change into. …It was definitely shopping, but …That doesn’t sound like you went out for fun, does it…?
“That… That was for a different purpose…”
Yeah, it’s hard…”
“And then there’s… Do you like going out to eat or something?”
Going out to eat is like going out to play, right? I don’t know, I feel like it’s different, but I don’t think it’s necessarily wrong.
“If having dinner with someone is a game, does that mean Kazuya-kun and I have been playing a lot lately?”
“Yeah… …Maybe, but isn’t playing is like, something you think that’s important?”
This is just a random thought that came to my mind, but surprisingly I think it’s the right one.
“Something Important?”
“For example, how do you feel when you go to buy groceries and how do you feel when you go to buy what you want?”
“Sure… In my case, I feel excited when I go to buy a book.”
“Maybe, but sharing that excitement is what play is all about, isn’t it?”
I think going shopping is a playful way to share the same excitement of shopping with others who share the same interests, such as games and comics for boys and clothes and cosmetics for girls… I don’t know man.
“I see… So the idea of sharing positive emotions with someone else is the basis of play.”
“Maybe that’s what it is?”
I’m starting to feel like a philosopher, but I guess that’s what it’s all about.
“Then, Kazuya-kun…”
“What is it?”
“Do you like sushi?”
“Well, I like it.”
“In that case, let’s go out for sushi.”
I see. Miyu likes sushi. So if I like sushi too, we can be excited about each other and share it.
“Then, tonight’s dinner is decided.”
“I guess.”
But there’s one problem, it’s that sushi has an image of being expensive… I’m not sure if I’ll be able to afford it, but I’ll take it as a sign of welcome to Miyu’s home…

“I …I’ve never been to a conveyor belt sushi restaurant before…”
Miyu and I had come to the conveyor belt sushi restaurant to eat sushi as we had talked about. When we sat down after waiting for our turn, I saw a little twinkle in her usual fragile eyes.
“Did you always go to the non-revolving sushi place?”
“No. I’ve hardly ever eaten out…”
I see now… Miyu’s family environment is complicated, and Miyu is the type of person who is rarely seen with anyone at school, so she probably didn’t have much of a chance to eat out. …I stepped on a landmine with all my might.
“…I see. Then I guess we’ll just have to enjoy the day.”
“Enjoy?”
“Well, we’re here to have some fun and eat some food, so we should have some fun and enjoy it.”
“That’s right.”
I don’t know what the point of having fun at a conveyor belt sushi restaurant is, but I guess we should just eat sushi.
“Let’s eat right away.”
“Sure.”
I took a shrimp that was just coming down the stream. Miyu waited a little longer before taking the salmon.
“It’s been a while since I’ve had sushi, but it’s really good.”
“Sushi from conveyor belt sushi restaurants tastes better than I thought it would. It’s amazing that this is only 100 yen…”
I was glad to see that Miyu looked satisfied with herself, but I had a question here.
“Where did Miyu usually eat sushi?”
She said she’s never had conveyor belt sushi before, and if she’s rarely eaten out, I don’t think she’s ever had a chance to eat sushi like this… I wondered if she was buying it at the supermarket or something. I thought to myself
“Of course I prepare it myself.”
“…………..”
What? Is sushi something you make and eat yourself? If I remember correctly, you had to be trained or something to make sushi…
“Can an amateur make sushi…?”
“Don’t you just make the sushi rice, shape it, and then put the ingredients on top? It’s like rice balls, right?”
“It’s true what they say: …A normal person would not talk about sushi in the same way as a rice ball…“
“…I see.”
“Kazuya-kun sometimes says crazy things, right?”
This time, it’s definitely Miyu who is saying strange things, but I won’t say anything …. Or rather, I’m also saying something strange once in a while too? …It was pretty ridiculous when I was saying that ‘I would buy you.’
“You’ll have to make it sometime.”
“At Kazuya-kun’s house?”
“Yeah.”
“All right. If Kazuya-kun says so.”
When I cooked dinner for Miyu on the first day she came to my house, she said a lot of things about me, but I’m pretty sure Miyu has higher specs about cooking than I do.
“Instead, it’s…”
“Hmm?”
“I want Kazuya-kun to make one sometime…”
What? You want me to make sushi too? Of course I can’t do that.
“I can’t make sushi, okay?”
“It doesn’t have to be sushi.”
“You don’t care what it is?”
When I asked her that, Miyu shook her head, albeit modestly. I would have done that even without being told, but with Miyu’s cooking specs, I think she would eat better if she made it herself…
“If that’s the case, I’ll cook dinner for you tomorrow night since I’m working the early morning shift again.”
“Really?!”
She reacted with great vigor. …Does it really make her this much happy?
“Oh, yeah.”
“Promise, right?”
“All right. But don’t get your hopes up too high, okay? I feel like Miyu’s expectations are too high…”
“It’s okay. Kazuya’s cooking has a gentle taste.”
“Gentle taste?”
“Yes.”
I don’t know what gentle taste is, but it makes me irresistibly embarrassed. I don’t know why.
After that, we ate sushi and left the restaurant while talking about other things.
“Are you sure you’re okay with paying for it?”
“It’s fine. I’ve decided to call it Miyu’s welcome party.”
“In that case, thank you.”
“Yep.”
“Let’s go again sometime.”
“Ehh?”
“I had fun today.”
The view of Miyu giggling lightly while saying that was really entrancing. Since I was able to see this happy face of her’s, I began to think that this sushi was worth far more than the price actually asked for.
