Alice's POV

Did Kurumi-chan just winked at Ryo-kun? My hands are currently full right now but I didn't miss the small gestures from them. Mou~ flirting with each other in front me. Wait...I might just be seeing things...or am I? Now that I think about it, Kurumi-chan is acting rather strange since we began. It's not her nature to do such unnecessary things while in the kitchen. No, it's not her nature to flirt. Not to mention I can hear her small chuckles.

I took a peek at what she's doing and I almost gag.

Is she trying to dress her salmon with yogurt?
Is that a strawberry jam?

"Kurumi-chan, are you out of your mind? Take this seriously, will you?" I pouted at her. She just chuckled and tilted her head.

"Oh I am taking this battle seriously, dear.~~" She gave me a grin then went back to what she have been doing.

What? I raised my eyebrows in confusion but decided to ask her later. Besides, I am almost finished. I swear she is acting strange.

Isshiki's POV

"Oh, Isshiki-senpai. What are you doing?" I turned around and saw Souma-kun holding a small lunch box.

"Just getting rid of unnecessary things. You can help me."

On the tables are papers and stuff that has been stacked in the attic for a year. Albums, documents, notes that has been forgotten etc. I can say that I enjoy cleaning all of these. It was nostalgic. Souma seated across the table and picked up a couple of notes which I remembered was Kurumi's.

"Senpai, can I keep these? Why would you trash these when it looks interesting?" He said while scanning the pages with Kurumi's messy handwriting. I pursed my lips. "Ohh! Some of these seems familiar. Oyaji used to taste-test them on me. Is this his notes?"

"I think so. You can keep it if you want." I didn't want to tell him the real owner of the notebook which is a little childish of me. I spotted an unfamiliar white envelop that seems to be out of place from the rest. I picked it up, it doesn't have dust on them and it's not worn out either. I took out the contents. My brows furrowed.
What is this doing here? This is supposed to be classified information.

I set it aside away from Souma-kun's reach and casually picked another one.

"Woah... You all look so young here, senpai." I saw Souma-kun holding what it seems to be a picture album.

"Ah. That was a year ago, I think. We should keep that."

"Kurumi is here, too."

I looked at the picture.
"That was when she first came here. It was a very memorable day." I smiled at the memory where she challenged all of us into a cooking battle as soon as she settled. It was fun, honestly.
I look at Souma who seems to be having a hard time taking his eyes of the picture. I can't blame him. Her smile was beautiful, not that it's not anymore. Her smile right now seems to be forced and sad. I got back from my work quietly while listening to Souma-kun mutter a few comments at stuff he finds.

I looked at the white envelop one last time.

I should have put this on chapter 61 >.>
I think Kurumi has this MP-like disorder where she created this exact alter of her late sister, Shiromi.
