145-a hungry vegetable




'I heard you were coming early in the morning, so I've prepared a meal for you.

 Toki-san brought me to the dining room of the mansion.
 An aristocrat's dining room. The table was so big that I thought it was the easiest way to describe it, and there was a huge array of sumptuous food on it.
 There was a full course meal with a lot of guts. From the appetizers to the drinks, everything was so big that I thought it was American size.

'That looks so good!

 Especially that steak. That steak in particular looks so hot you'd think it had just been cooked. It's definitely delicious. It's absolutely delicious.

'Mom, is it still morning at ......?

'Yes, it is.

'This much food in the morning is too much for you. ......'

'Is that so? But I eat at least this much every morning, and I thought I would need at least this much to feed Nanaka a full meal.

 Perhaps it was because she had seen so many breakfasts, but Rin was chiding Toki.
 She's not a big breakfast eater, and she's not a big eater, so she must have decided at a glance that she couldn't eat this much.

 On the contrary, Toki-san is a healthy daredevil and eats as much as a glutton on TV.
 The Toki-san I know would easily finish this full course, which, to put it mildly, would be no less than 3,000 calories per person.

'I understand how you feel, but please don't think of Nana and your mother as the standard. Neither I nor Toki can eat this much.'

'I'm sorry, I wasn't considerate enough.

 Perhaps it was because Rin scolded him, but Toki-san seemed depressed. Well, it would be a shame if we couldn't finish it.
 Just because you're rich doesn't mean you're going to waste your food.
 It's partly because she's not that interested in food, but also because she only eats what she needs when she needs it.
 It's not because of that, but her house has very little food loss.
 Is it because I'm eating all the food? Hahaha, that's not a problem.

 But that doesn't mean that Toki-san is a person who wastes food.
 Because Toki-san is the one who raised Rin. Naturally, his values are similar to Rin's.
 Regardless of the truth of Toki's claim that he usually eats this much food, it is true that Toki can eat this amount of food ...... and that's the point. It's like when you go back to your parents' house and your grandmother serves you a huge amount of food.
 This is the kind of thing where a child is so happy to be home after a long absence that they lose control of themselves.

 After all, even my own daughter, Rin, rarely comes back here, and the same goes for Toka-chan and Ron-san. I, on the other hand, hadn't been here in about six and a half years.
 It's hard to tell from his expressionless face, but I think Toki is having a great time.
 I'm sure that even the head chef would have stopped him from eating this amount of rice. ...... He must have been so excited that he overcame that restraint.

I'm not sure what to do. I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that.



'I know that. You're just too excited because Nana came back after a long time.'

'No, I'm not excited. It's just that I made a slight mistake.'

'Don't worry, your mother is as clumsy as she looks...'

'Ri, Butane!

 I'm not sure what to make of this.

'That's strange, she should be up by now. ......'

 I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea.
 I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea.

'Nana-sama!

'Owa...... are you okay, Toca?'

 I was hugged from the front with great force, but because I remained immobile, it was as if my head was buried in her stomach as she jumped into my arms.
 I asked her if it hurt, but apparently my fears were unfounded.

'I'm fine! I haven't seen you in two weeks, Nana-sama. ...... You smell good. ......'

 Toka-chan hugged me tightly and nuzzled her face into the back of my hair, looking very happy.
 As I was thinking about what to do, Rin tugged on Toka-chan's ear.

'Don't trip, come back here.

'Ouch! It's fine, you always monopolize your Nana, so please let me spoil you once in a while.

'That's fine, but you should wait until you've eaten. I was waiting for you.'

'Oh, that's right. I went to pick some flowers. ...... Hmm?

 Lin turned her hand to the dining table as Toka-chan booed without releasing me.
 Tooka-chan looked at the table once and then made an awkward expression, hugged me tightly once and then looked at the table again and tilted her head honestly.
 I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one.

'Isn't that a lot of ......?

'I've already done that part, so it's fine. Nana seems to be starving, so if you have any left over, give it to her.

 As if she didn't want to go through the same thing over and over again, Rin said and turned to her seat.
 When Toka-chan peeked at me from above, I responded with my best smug face.

'I'll take care of it!

'You're so reliable.

'Are you finished? Then let's eat it before it gets cold.

 Toki clapped his hands lightly as he looked at Toka and I smiling heartwarmingly.

 After we had finished eating, we moved to the guest room, where Toki-san had arranged for us to relax.
 I was caught by Toki-san and placed on her lap.
 Toka-chan and Rin-chan were sitting on the sofa, facing each other.

'Woo ......, that was delicious!

 I'm so happy to have eaten so much this morning.
 I was able to eat until I was satisfied with my meal, with Rin and Toka sharing about 70% each.
 The steak was good, but the fish was good too. It was boiled white fish, but I wondered what kind of fish it was.

'I thought I ate almost enough for three people, but where the hell did it go?

'That's not a big stomach, it's digesting in an instant. It's physically pushing the food in by keeping the stomach empty.

'That's too much force.

 Rin and Toka were talking about this when they saw me leaning my back against Toki-san, satisfied.
 I hate the fact that they dare to whisper, even though I can hear them whether they are whispering or talking loudly.
 Incidentally, while listening to their words, Toki-san was rubbing my stomach.

'I'm not as good as you, Nanaka. I'm glad to see that you're becoming more and more energetic.

 Even so, Toki-san had already eaten her share of the food, so there must be room for more.
 In terms of the amount of food he could eat, he might even have more than me.

 But I'm not going to step on such obvious landmines. If I pointed out such a thing in this situation where Toki-san was in control of my life and death, what was waiting for me was a severe punishment.

'Nanaka, you can't.'

'What, I didn't say anything!

'I felt an evil spirit.

'That's terrible.

 The hand that was placed on my stomach crawled around on my stomach.
 d*mn, just the person who trained Rin-chan to be ticklish is a terrifyingly skilled tickler.
 I fainted like a caterpillar at the pranks played on me for so many unreasonable reasons.

'Well, now that we've eaten, and the light is here, it's just about time. Let's talk about our plans for next weekend.'

 As I was fainting in agony from Toki-san tickling my stomach, Rin suddenly said something like that.

'Phew, phew ...... next weekend is a long way off, is there anything going on?

'No, it's not that far away.

 That's what I think.
 It's probably not so much the difference in our senses of time, but the fact that we've spent so much time together recently that my sense of time has become longer.
 However, next weekend is about ten days away, so it's still a long way off.

'There are some big tournaments coming up. It's the domestic qualifying round of the World Gamers Championships, or WGCS.

 As if to answer my question, Rin-chan said so with a grin.
