Miyabi Kurosawa POV
Tokyo, Japan
October 8, 2012

It seems that dinner was incredibly filling with how Ai, the twins, and the Saitou couple are leaning in their seats. I took it upon myself that I was the dishes. As I'm doing so, I could feel a stare at me, although I can't catch the person who is doing it though, so I simply continue washing the used dishes.

"Aw man, I'm not going to lie kid, with how good that food tastes you can open up a restaurant and flourish with no problem."

I hear Ichigo-san compliment my cooking. I simply chuckle at the high praise.

"Please sir, I'm simply a good cook that's all."

"A 'good cook', you're way better than just that, honestly."

I simply smile and shrug it off. Ai then jumps in the conversation.

"The president is right y'know? It's been a long time since I had your cooking but it's definitely better than before."

"Well, you know me Ai, constantly keeping myself learning in whatever way I could do so."

Ai then laughs at that statement as it is true that I'm somehow still studying even in just a hobby.

"It got me curious though, what led you to making homemade baby food and mocktails?"

She asks me with pure curiosity in her eyes as they sparkle, she has her chin on her palms to support her as she leans against the table.

"I tried out a lot of different part time jobs and it eventually landed me a gig in babysitting. It can quite tiring but also satisfying, there was this couple that often hired me to babysit for them. They were also the ones who taught me how to make homemade baby food, even gave me some of their personal recipes.

As for the mocktails, I went into a cafe about 2 years ago and worked part time as a server. Due to a low amount of staff, the owner decided to train me to be a barista for coffee. As time went on, the menu expanded and now included mocktails, leading to him training me again to make them and viola! That's how I learned to make them."

I tell her happily about the experience I had while still cleaning the dishes. This makes the Saitou couple and Ai surprised, primarily because I was a minor that had a part time job before being 15.

"Wait, since we're the same age, you wouldn't be able to pass the requirements of having a high school diploma and age of 15, right?

"That's quite simple really, I lied about my age, which they bought since I looked quite tall and acted mature for my age, and I was already a high school graduate around the time I had skipped grades in advance, so currently, I could apply for college right now."

I casually say to them, thinking that there wasn't anything abnormal at what I said. Thinking that it was really silent, I looked up from what I'm doing and see them with shocked expressions, it seems like the twins are shocked too, interesting.

"What?"

"You do realize that you just admitted to lying about your age right?"

Ichigo-san points out, mouth still wide open in surprise.

"Yep, what're they going to do about it? I'm already of legal age and have the perfect requirements so they can't sue me anymore, also it's their fault they didn't do a background check on me so, totally nothing illegal on my part and everything wrong on their screening process."

I say with a triumphant smirk as I tell them a fake story at what really happened. They seem to buy it and it makes me laugh loudly, making them confused further.
