“Sure! But that’s all we can do, I have to meet up with Yu Yan after this.” You pull out your phone to text Yu Yan to get her schedule emptied in a bit.
“Don’t get too careless with me, my cute little miscreant. You can’t insinuate you have another date in front of me. Don’t be cruel.” A playful Kata pokes your nose.
“S-Sorry, but it isn’t like that. I have to deliver heavy news and I need to soften the blow as much as I can.” You try to explain.
“Oh, you’re preparing that little mischievous one’s favorite? I don’t know what type of impression Nina gave you, but not all women use food to combat their sorrows.” Nurse Calamity thinks less of her friend.
“Yup! I wanna make some pizza! I just want to show I care.” You shrug. A wise part of you believes if it’s worked before, why change strategies?
“You don’t go for half-measures, do you? It’s very thoughtful; my cousins think ice cream is enough to do the trick.” The nostalgic Nurse recalls some embarrassing memories from her childhood.
“Isn’t that just a movie trope?” You say that knowing full well that Scarlet exists in this world.
“Oh, absolutely, adults drink, dear.” Kata giggles. Maybe she wasn’t recalling embarrassing childhood memories… “But isn’t it absolutely charming when people act so innocently?”
“I think you’re right.” You nod. Oh boy, you remember those silly girls, like Vera, who vehemently told you to not pull the fire alarm. How naive. It was a genius idea. “Uh, are we doing this?” You don’t know if you should send the text to Yu Yan now or later.
“I haven’t changed my mind.” Your cooking partner winks. “Let’s get dirty.” How can she say that? You’re handling food!
“Thank you!” You’re ready and begin telling her the instructions for the dish. It’s Pizza, it’s not complex, so it should be easy, right?
Yes! It was easy! Thanks to your incredible chemistry in the kitchen more than anything else. With how tight the space was, it felt more intimate, your passionate dancing moves weren’t as outlandish, but they were intense. The friction made it all better. This all translates perfectly to a perfectly cooked dish. A pizza that knows no equals. With cheese so good it might as well come from the Goddess of Cheese (Pascaline) herself. Yes, this will surely cheer up Yu Yan as much as cooking it together enriched Kata’s day.
“<span class="mu-i">Voila~!</span> We’ve outdone ourselves yet again, handsome!” Kata pulls the pizza out of her outdoor oven. You’re at the back of the house. “We truly have a one-of-a-kind connection...”
“Yeah, in the kitchen! It looks amazing! Thank you, Kata!” It’s hard for you to believe how good this looks!
“What are you thanking me for? We made this together and had a blast, didn’t we?” Kata hands over the box. “Enjoy it! Now go before it gets cold, or all of this will be for naught.”
