Thanks to Erina-san, we were all able to pass the second stage of the advancement exam. We had to cook a noodle dish and since we were rebels to the new system at Tohtsuki, we were called last to the separate dining halls, where almost no ingredients were left. Thankfully, we were able to harness the amazing versatility of potatoes (udon made out of potatoes) we all passed. 

Right now, we're all in the city, in the major shopping district of Sapporo. Luckily, they are allowing us to sightsee before we board the train. I wrap my scarf tighter around myself as another wave of cold air hits my skin. 

Everybody starts to split off into groups and all Soma and I have to do is share a glance before we scurry off ourselves. We see an ice cream truck, which is confusing since it's cold so why would you want to eat ice cream? But we get some anyway! 

When I lick it, my eyes widen in surprise. I look at Soma and he has the same look on his face as me. 

"What kind of milk are they using to make such good soft serve ice cream?" Soma exclaims, looking at the ice cream in awe. I laugh, eating more of the ice cream.

"Hokkaido is amazing!" I add, nodding. When we finish our ice cream, I grab a map for us. 

"It's only right if we go try out some more food," Soma says, smiling at me.

"Right, we might as well." I agree. "Try out everything.." I cough out the last bit, looking at Soma from the corner of my eye. He lets out a snort.

"Right, right."

We come across a nice little fried chicken shop and I feel my mouth watering as I watch people inside eat. When someone exits the restaurant, the smell of the chicken leaves with them. I pull on Soma's coat, asking him to look inside.

"Let's go inside." He grabs my arm, pulling me to go inside the restaurant. When we get to the counter to order, Soma orders us two meals with my favorite drink and his. He also pays for both of our meals. I feel touched but I try not to show it. The bare minimum should not make me this happy...

When the meals come out to us, I immediately take a long sip of my drink. Soma watches me with a look of amusement and I raise an eyebrow at him.

"You must've been thirsty." He chuckles.

"Yeah, I haven't drunk anything all day. This hit the spot." I take another long sip. "Ahh, so good."

He shakes his head, following in my footsteps, and takes a long sip of his drink too.

"Oh, you're right. That was refreshing."

"I'm always right."

"Ehhh..." His face scrunches up as he bites into his chicken. I throw a fry at him and fake a glare. He picks it up and happily eats it. I playfully roll my eyes as I watch him eat.
