Episode 31 "Her Real Face Gradually Begins to Be Seen"

"Charlotte's homemade food is really delicious."

Charlotte made breakfast for me as well so i went

along with her generosity and ate the breakfast made by her.

White rice and standard miso soup were lined up on the table.

There was also fried spinach and bacon, umekomi-yaki (grilled fish with plum flavor), and egg cheese rolls, which is a kind of cheese wrapped in an omelet.

It was all delicious and I felt like I had gotten a lot out of this morning.

"Fufu, even if you flatter me, nothing will come out anymore “

"No, it's really delicious. I could eat every day. "

"Well, that is--"

When I said what I sincerely thought, for some reason Charlotte turned her face away from me.

What happened?

I feel like her ears are red.

--Kui kui

As I stared at Charlotte, Emma, who was sitting on my lap, pulled her clothes.

"What's wrong?”

"When I have brother, I have a lot of food. I want to eat with my brother every day. "

"Eh, Emma! Don't say anything extra! “

Charlotte responded sensitively to Emma's non-malicious words.

Charlotte's face, which turned to me, was bright red of embarrassment.

Judging from Emma's words and Charlotte's reaction, it seemed that she made elaborate breakfast because I was there.

What should I do.

Charlotte may have just been enthusiastic when she cooks for others, but I'm glad to think it was for me.

"Well, it's different, I don't usually cut corners, you know ?”

"Haha, you don't have to panic, it's okay."

"Hey, you're laughing.......! You're actually making fun of me in your mind, aren't you ......?

"No, i am not !"

"Muu ..."

Yeah ...

For some reason, Charlotte was sulking.

I'm really not making fun of you .......

However, Charlotte, who has bulging cheek and looked like a child, was very cute.

It's been a few days since I met her, but I felt like I was getting along well, and I was happy.

"--By the way, it's about time for tests, right? “

As I was washing the dishes after eating, Charlotte, who was also washing the dishes next to me, brought up the topic of the test.

By the way, the reason we were washing the dishes together was because I felt bad asking her to do it alone every time, so I forcibely helped her.

"Yeah. However, since it is a test after a long vacation, the examination range will be out of the range of the first semester, and about half will be out of the summer vacation assignment, so I was exempted “

As expected, the school did not tell Charlotte, who has just studied abroad, to take the test.

I disn't know how far she was studying in England, but it's unlikely that her class speed and scope will be exactly the same as us.

Perhaps she will participate in the test in the mid-term test.

"Oh, by the way, I heard from Professor Hanazawa that Aoyagi-kun can study the best at school, right? I also have to do my best not to lose to Aoyagi-kun. "

Best at school?

Certainly, in the grade, it is best to look only at the test results, but what did the Miyu-sensei say that I was the best at school ...?

It may be said based on the results of the national academic ability test, but I wanted her to stop saying that I was the best at school.

Well, that's another rhin about Miyu sensei but, Charlotte seemed to be very confident in studying.

She was fluent and familiar with Japanese, and from the usual situation, she was definitely the type who can study.

Maybe Charlotte will be the biggest obstacle to my goal ...

Well, even if that happens, I have no choice but to do my best in the end.

"I will do my best not to lose to you. ...... The athletic festival is waiting for us as soon as the test is over, and we'll be busy for a while ... "

"That's a sports festival ...?”

Hmm?

What's wrong?

I just talked about the athletic festival without any thought, but Charlotte got stuck looking at my face.

"Well, what's wrong? “

"No, nothing! …… Well, by the way, Japan is also focusing on exercise unlike Britain ……. It's also a staple in manga ... "

Charlotte said nothing, but it looks like something was up.

Maybe she’s not good at exercising?

I was curious and tried to step in a little bit but--

"Oni-chan, play? 』\

Emma, who had spare time, clung to my leg, so I missed the timing to speak.

――By the way, I played with Emma until the last minute I went to school
