Epilogue: The Girl Standing in the Kitchen

"Mr. Yoshida, your beard."

"What? I shaved!"

"You missed a spot."

"Huh?"

Sayu told me, standing in the simple kitchen preparing a rolled omelet. I headed back to the washroom, and sure enough, I had missed a spot on my chin. I clicked my tongue at myself in disdain, turned on the electric razor again to tidy up the facial hair I missed.

"But actually..."

When I stepped back out of the washroom, Sayu started speaking to me, without looking up from the frying pan.

"It's kinda like you, having that little spot of missed beard."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Exactly what I just said."

She turned off the stove as she responded, then shifted the freshly-cooked fluffy omelet from the frying pan to a plate.

"Okay! It's ready."

"Looks delicious."

"Help yourself to as much rice as you want. Oh, take this, too."

She handed me a bowl and the plate of rolled omelet, then began filling a bowl with miso soup. As always, the soup looked so good that I feel like, with her cooking skills, her true calling in life might have been a housewife.

A few weeks had gone by since the night Sayu cornered me in only her underwear.

By now, seeing Sayu doing the housework was second nature.

It was difficult to explain the situation to Mishima after... But in the end, we smoothed things over amicably.

"Well, it is you, Yoshida-sempai. You'd never have it in you to put a hand on a high school girl."

Although she was a little rude about it, Mishima more or less accepted the circumstances of our situation.

The thing that had been bothering me lately was how friendly Goto had become all of a sudden. For some reason, she started inviting me out to lunch; whereas she'd normally just eat a salad alone, she was now ordering much heavier meals whenever we ate together.

Of course, I'm not unhappy with this sudden turn of events, but not knowing the reason for it has me on pins and needles; it's gotta be bad for my heart.

"I wanted to show you my true self, Yoshida."

She kept making comments like that with a charming smile on her face. She was toying with me, just like she always did.

The environment around me in the office may have changed a little, but things at home with Sayu stayed trouble-free.

I set the plate of rolled omelet down on the table and opened the rice cooker. While I fill my empty bowl with steamed rice, my eyes happen to shift towards Sayu, pausing to take in her appearance.

"Hey. Why're you wearing your school uniform today?"

Sayu smirked in response and looked to the side, glancing in my direction.

"Does it suit me?"

"It'd be a problem if a high school girl's uniform didn't suit her, wouldn't it?"

"That's not what I mean..."

She retaliated, pouting.

"I just thought I should sometimes try to show that I'm still a high school girl."

"'Sometimes,' huh? Uniform or not, you're still a high school girl."

"Well, yeah, but..."

Sayu walked into the living room carrying two bowls. She had made steamed rice, rolled omelet with sausages, and miso soup.
