“Eh, let’s eat the Pizza first before we dive into that.” You leave the important bits for later.
“You sure? I can tell it’s a big deal.” Yu Yan intuits.
“Kinda. But we have more pressing matters here. We don’t want this bad boy to get cold.” You wiggle your eyebrows in a way that isn’t cheeky or for flirting. Rare waving.
“That’d be a damn shame, that’s right. But I’m no fatty, I don’t mind too much.” Yu Yan is more concerned about you than the food. “We can hand it to Chef Mike to heat it up later.” She points at your old microwave.
“Yu, I went out of my way to make this thing with Kata, you’re eating it at peak condition whether you want to or not.” You furrow your eyebrows.
“Okay, I didn’t know about that. That Nurse would kill us and herself if she learned we ate this thing cold. I’ll get the plates.” Yu Yan scurries into the kitchen and gets a couple of plates and napkins.
You leave the food on top of the tiny table in front of the couch and sit next to Yu Yan. The Smug Hobo opens the box, sparks of flavor come out with the aroma of a perfectly made pizza, and there it is, the most popular cheese recipe on the entire planet in all its melty magnificence. It’s so beautiful it’s shining.
“Is this radioactive or something? Why is it glowing?” Yu Yan has never seen this before.
“It’s not glowing, Yu. Bradford Jr. turned on that lamp and the light is shining on the box.” You correct.
“Meow.” Bradford Jr. turns the lamp off. Since when did you have a lamp here?
“Did you teach him to do that? I saw Susie teaching cats how to dance. It was awful.” Yu Yan wants to know if you’re some kind of cat whisperer.
“Meow?” Bradford Jr. starts dancing.
“Just like that, yeah.” Yu Yan nods. “Wait…” She realizes this isn’t normal.
“No, I haven’t. I did send him to find con— cornflakes…” You were going to say something really weird about that incident with Nina. An incident of love. And condoms. “Yeah, he’s pretty reliable.”
“Meow!” Bradford Jr. is proud of being useful!
“Cornflakes, huh?” Yu Yan knows you were going to say something else. “You’re as bad at lying as Mooriko. But whatever, let’s eat! I don’t want to pull scalpels out of the back of my head.”
“Kata wouldn’t do that…” You defend the nurse.
“You’re right, she’ll throw them directly at my face! I’ve seen it!” Yu Yan chuckles. “Bon Appetite, amigo.”
Yu Yan grabs a bite of the <span class="mu-s">Gravenriden Pizza</span>. She munches and munches, her expression is basically unreadable from how plain it is. And when she gulps it all, her verdict comes out.
“Mmm, How do I put this? This is the good stuff, a miracle on the palate, I kinda love it.” Yu Yan says with a gleeful yet petulant look on her face. “Thank you, dude.”
