POV: Teruhashi Kokomi

Today's another day I visit Kusuo's house for Ms. Saiki's cooking class.

Mom: Welcome, Kokomi-chan!

T: Thank you for inviting me, Mrs. Saiki.

M: You don't have to be so formal, you can call me Mom.

I blushed from the thought.

T: Oh I couldn't.

She noticed that I brought a bag with me.

M: What did you bring with you?

T: Some cake I bought from the bakery.

M: Ku-chan would love it.

Kusuo, who was in the living room, walked in when I mentioned the cake. He wanted to eat the cake in the dining room, but Ms. Saiki stopped him.

M: Ku-chan,

S: What is it?

M: Can you eat the cake in your room? I want to have a personal talk with Kokomi-chan.

Kusuo noticed that I was getting nervous.

S: Are you going to be ok?

T: I think so.

Kurumi noticed Kusuo's hesitation.

M: Don't be so worried. I'm just going to talk to her.

Kusuo decided to trust her than walked to his room.

T: Kusuo can technically still hear us.

M: You know he's not that nosy.

As expected from Mrs. Saiki, knowing her son very well.

M: Alright, let's begin.

When we were preparing the ingredients, Mrs. Saiki wanted to start the conversation.

M: Kokomi-chan.

T: What is it, Ms. Saiki?

M: I want to thank you for being with with Kusuo.

T: No no I should thank you for allowing me to be with him.

M: Why wouldn't I approve you, you're such a sweet girl.

T: Well, as sweet as I am, I pale in comparison to Kusuo on many things.

M: Everyone pales in comparison to Ku-chan. 

T: I know, but as much as Kusuo tries to console me, I still have a feeling that I'm not worthy to be with Kusuo.

M: If all the girls had the same thought as you did, Kusuo would never settle down. And I'm so happy that it was you that's brave enough to be the one.

A short silence happened before Ms. Saiki continued.

M: Kokomi.

T: Hm?

M: I don't have to tell you that Kusuo's a special boy.

T: He sure is.

M: But I think you notice that Kusuo is usually more alone than a normal person.

T: From what I've seen, Kusuo just doesn't like to deal with people around him.

M: His friends are very cheerful, I'm surprised that they are still such close friends to Kusuo.
