Kunimi was looking forward to a relaxing afternoon without volleyball practice, but when a random girl on the streets suddenly collapsed, his own plans had to wait. Reluctantly he helps her, though to the boy's disliking, she turned out to be a real...
I was still wondering what had happened yesterday. I even lost some sleep over it, but I'm sure if I just ask Kunimi about it I will be fine. Before class started I took the bag with me and went to the door of the classroom of class 6. Strangely Kindaichi from my class seemed to have the same thing in mind. Did he know someone from class 6?
It was none of my business anyway, so I tried to get back to what I was doing. I was about to ask a girl who sat near the door if Kunimi was there, but I learned soon that I wouldn't need to ask.
"Kunimi!" Kindaichi yelled through the entire classroom and just entered. He was friends with Kunimi? I figured I'd just follow behind my classmate to Kunimi's desk.
They had just greeted each other when I already interrupted them. "E-excuse me?" They turned to me as confusion was evident in Kindaichi's expression. "Kunimi, right? I figured you might want your bag back." I chuckled awkwardly extending the bag to him.
"Oh, right. I almost forgot. Here's yours too." He said, taking his bag and gesturing to the one next to his chair.
While I went and grabbed it, Kindaichi still seemed really confused. "Do you guys know each other?"
"That's what I'd actually like to know as well." I said, looking at Kunimi. My response just seemed to confuse my classmate even more, but Kunimi knew what I was talking about. He sighed.
"You don't remember anything, do you?"
"No, not really. When I woke up I just noticed that someone must have been there and then I found your bag."
"Yeah, sorry. I should have paid more attention to which bag I was grabbing, but I really just wanted it to be over with..." he sighed yet again. "So basically, what happened is, you collapsed on the way from school, I came to help you, you were about half conscious, I looked for your student ID to find your address, I carried you home, lay you on the couch, got you a cold towel and left. Please don't ever do that again..." he explained.
"Oh my god, really? And I don't remember any of that? Did I say anything stupid?!" I panicked at the thought. He said I was half conscious after all.
"You called me Mom, demanded a hug and then clung to my torso like glue." He bluntly said. How embarrassing!! My face blushed a deep red as I hoped the ground could just open up and swallow me then and there. You could literally see my soul leaving my body.
"I'm so so so sorry!!And thank you so much for your help! I owe you big time!! God, that's so embarrassing... How can I make it up to you?"
"How about we never talk about it again and leave it at that." He sighed tiredly.
"You are right! I should make you lunch!" I said in a cheerful tone, forgetting my embarrassment from before.
"But that's not even what I-" "What would you like in your bento? Are you allergic to anything?" I cut him off. He's getting that food! If he wants it or not!
"You won't listen, will you?" He sighed yet again. With all his sighing, he sure seems like he's done with everyone's crap. "Are you feeling better by the way?" he asked.
"Um, yeah. When I woke up I was completely fine. Thanks again."
I glanced over at Kindaichi. I forgot he was here too for a moment. He looked still really confused and also a little awkward, because he didn't really want to interrupt the conversation. He was about to say something when the bell rang.
"Oh, class is about to start." I concluded. "See you tomorrow!" I waved goodbye to Kunimi as I left the classroom, Kindaichi following my actions.

School had finally ended, and I decided I'd go to the grocery store real quick before going home. After all, I still had to prepare the bento for Kunimi. Though he didn't tell me what he wanted to eat. I'll have to guess and hope he likes it.
I figured I'd make some rice, egg rolls, fried chicken and veggies. That is good, right? Delicious and healthy! He seems to be very muscular, so I think health is important to him.
So, I bought the ingredients I needed, hoping the food would turn out ok in the end. I don't know why, but I really feel the need to make him like me...

I was yet again on my way to the classroom of class 1-6. I had the bento I made with me. It didn't turn out all too bad. Okay, maybe I burned the chicken and egg rolls a little, but hey, I never claimed to be a master chef.
Kindaichi showed up next to me. "Bringing him the promised lunch?" he asked. I smiled and nodded as we entered the classroom together.
"Kunimi, good morning!" Kindaichi greeted his friend. Kunimi turned to us, his expression tired and indifferent as always. "Morning." He lazily mumbled.
"Here's your lunch." I smiled calmly and extended the bento to him.

"I told you you didn't have to." He sighed.
"And I told you you're getting lunch!" I smiled, staying persistent.
It was lunch break. Time to try (L/N)'s bento I guess. But jeez, she can be really persistent, it's almost annoying, but she means well. At least she's not one of those energic loud annoying people. She's usually quite calm I guess. Even when she was embarrassed she didn't make a scene or yelled like a typical tsundere. (L/N) is okay to get along with.
I opened to bento box to see what food she chose to pack. It all seemed to be things I liked, though the chicken and egg rolls were a little burned... I'm not sure if I should eat that...
But it would be rude not to eat it. I took a bite and it was actually not that bad. Quite delicious even. I guess I should be grateful she was so persistent.
