I woke up to the sound of clanging pots. "What on earth is going on?" I thought to myself. I got up slowly from the futon. Ouch. My back hurt like hell. A fragrant smell hit my nose as I inhaled the aroma. Peeking around the kitchen, I see Giyuu preparing some kind of dish. What is he doing here?
"..Giyuu?" I managed to fumble out.
Giyuu turned around, hands still locked onto the pot. He smiled a little bit before returning to his normal face.
"Did you sleep good?" He asked concerned.
"Yeah. It was fine." I said as I rubbed my eyes.
Just then, a yawn escaped from me. "Come on.. at least try to act like you slept!" I yelled at myself in my mind.
"Seems like you're not good at deceiving people." Giyuu walked over with a pot of fresh vegetable soup and rice.
"You didn't have to make me this. I could've done so myself." I couldn't say it without averting my eyes.
Giyuu looked at me with a gentle reaction and said, "I wouldn't allow you to do it anyways."
He paused there. Was I seeing him blush? No. That's insane.
Giyuu cleared his throat and motioned towards the hot pot of soup. He scoops a mount of rice into the bowl, and sprinkles furikake on top before adding soup in before handing it to me. He does the same for himself.
"ittadakimasu." I say before digging in.
The immediate taste catches me off guard. It was delicious!
"Giyuu, This is amazing!" I exclaimed.
Giyuu was surprised by the sudden compliment. He turned away for a second to keep his composure.
"It's not that good.." he mumbled with reddened cheeks.
"Have some tea." He poured a cup of genmai cha for me and then himself.
After eating the hearty meal, I planned on taking a walk through the garden. Giyuu had tasks to do, so we said our goodbyes before heading off.
"One more thing," Giyuu said.
I watched him curiously.
"How are you?" Giyuu asked with a sarcastic face.
"Isn't that obvious?-" I replied. Then, I laughed the second I realized he was joking. How could he be this goofy and serious at the same time? Such a complex person. I bowed to Giyuu before letting him go. I don't think I asked him how he was. Perhaps, maybe next time.
