Suzuka 149 Handmade

凉风 #149 手製 てせい

Yamato was motivated by Tsuyoshi recent competition and he gave his best in his practice. He stopped to grasp a breath and shouted 6 more laps. Suzuka told him to have a rest since he had been running continuously. Yamato replied he's fine. Yamato remarked that there would be more competitive athlete in the university and he need to improve his speed. Suzuka said that she understood but she remarked that it should be fine if he maintained his current practice. She continued that if he kept thinking about the future and hurt himself, it would then create problems later. She told him to be considerate. Yamato was puzzled her her mood.

On the way home, Yamato complained that he's hungry and wondered what's for dinner. Suzuka reminded him that Ayano san was out and would be home late. Yamato was surprised and Suzuka reminded that Ayano san told them to get their own dinner. Yamato then wondered where's Ayano san going once every week. Yamato suggested that they'd get something to eat then. Suzuka had a thought and suddenly told Yamato that she just remembered a task she had to do. She asked him to wait at home. Yamato asked where she's going but Suzuka ran off, telling him she'd be back soon.

Lying on the bed, Yamato complained being hugry and where Suzuka has been. It's 6pm and he decided to call Suzuka. Suddenly someone knocked on the door. It was Suzuka and Yamato asked where she had been for so long. She came in but Yamato thought they were going out. He saw a bag and asked what she's planning. Suzuka put on the apron and told him that she would cook their dinner. Yamato was stunned and Suzuka pinched his face. He asked if she went to buy ingredients before. Suzuka then asked"Wouldn't Yamato like to try his girlfriend hand-cook dinner?" Yamato liked the idea but wondered why she wanted to do that. Suzuka assured him telling him that she would follow the recipe book. Yamato looked at Suzuka and was happy to see her in apron for the first time. Suzuka realized Yamato's noticing her. Yamato asked what she's going to cook and she answered curry which was less likely for failure. Yamato told her not make it too spicy since he couldn't handle spicy food. Suzuka was surprised and stuttered. Yamato saw the habanero, a mexican world hottest chilli. Suzuka panicly told him it was for garnishing only. Yamato complained that she was going to put that in. Suzuka threw two ingredients on Yamato's face and told him to leave so that she can focus. Later, Suzuka finished the curry with rice. She told Yamato to eat first as she need to prepare the salad. Yamato hesistated and checked the curry rice. Suzuka told him that it's rude to sniff here and there. Yamato apologized and Suzuka told him to taste it. Yamato had a try and it tasted very good. He finished his portion and asked for a second serve. Suzuka was so happy. Yamato remarked that she succeed even though it was her first time cooking curry. Suzuka commented that she had been practising and studying over the 3 years time and didnt have much spare time. She continued that she wanted to at least do something that felt like a couple for the day. Yamato apologized and said that he was rushing with his practice because he wanted Suzuka to see his achievement. He added that he would probably spent most of the time on trac pratice when he entered univeristy. Thus it's good that there's time to relax with her like now. Suzuka agreed. Yamato praised Suzuka on her improvement in cooking skill as he tried the salad. He collapsed with a swollen lips after tasting the habanero chilli which Suzuka used as garnish. Yamato asked why she used it and even grind it into powders. Suzuka explained that it looked beter with some red colours.


P/S: Like the chapter even though I hope for more development with other characters. Suzuka put in effort in cooking for Yamato and done well, though her salad disaster prevailed in the end.
