Go-Toubun no Hanayome √AE

Chapter 34:Quest of Invitation

Yotsuba:"It's a tradition for third years to run a food stall of some kind, so we're going to take a vote on what we should make."

Fuutarou:"Looking at the patterns of previous years, we've come up with this list, showing the most popular food choices, with Takoyaki at the top, followed by Choco-bake, Yakitsuba, Frankfurter, Churros and Octopus crackers. Of course, if there's anything anyone wants to do that's not on the list, feel free to let me know."

Nino:"I vote for takoyaki. No real sense in doing something new when the old way works just fine. Plus you went through the trouble of making that list, I don't want to make it meaningless."

Maeda:"My takoyaki skills have improved from my part time job, I'll show you how to make them!"

Takeda:"This is gonna be fun, yeah?"

While the support for Nino's option was big, there were concerns from other classmates.

Fuutarou:"Any other ideas?"

While other options were brought up, there wasn't anything big for a large number of people to cling to. But right before the time for new options ended, Fuutarou noticed something.

Fuutarou:"Miku. Any ideas on what to do?"

Miku:"Huh?"

Miku began to ponder for a second. With some hesitation, Miku gives out her first answer.

Miku:"Pancakes..."

Yotsuba:"Hmm, I don't see that from the data we've gathered."

Fuutarou:"But that might just work. Nice idea."

"I think that'll be good too!"

"That's a cute idea!"

"Thanks, Miku-chan!"

Miku blushed at the praise.

As the bell rang, the class decided to leave the situation as is. As soon as it ended, many students began to ask Yotsuba questions. A group in a band asking if they could participate, a girl asking for invitations to the rest of her family, and a design made by the fashion club. Fuutarou, Miku and Nino were looking at the crowd that gathered around Yotsuba.

Miku:"Yotsuba's pretty popular."

Fuutarou:"Why am I not the one being relied on?"

Miku:"Reputation. Most people still see you as the villain."

Fuutarou:"Geh. I should give the extra invitation papers to Yotsuba. I'll need an extra one as well. I'll need to ask the manager to do me a favor."

Miku:"Hm?"

Fuutarou simply nods, as he signals the number one. Miku picks up on this and nods back.

Nino:[Hmm, an invitation...] "A stall, huh? I can't wait to see what we'll make."

Miku:"Yeah, I'm eager too."

Nino:"Huh!? Just remember that they'll be real people getting the food! You got experience from our trip during the summer, and while you did fine, barring some suspicious plates I had to confiscate. There won't be a fancy kitchen, you'll only have a stall. You better not give anyone food poisoning!"

Miku:"I'm aware! I've tried my best to improve everyday."

Nino:"Fuu-kun, what's Miku's death rate right now?"

Fuutarou:"She hasn't given me anything life threatening for a while. Either way, I'm looking forward to what you girls can make."

Miku:"I'll save the best for you!"
