Chapter 6

6. Age Incident

I digested the surprising event when I told Alex my age.

It seems like Alex thought that I am about 15 years old.

Even though it’s unreasonable no matter how you look at it, I am not surprised anymore since Alex told me that he mistook me for a woman at first.

After two months passed since I arrived here, I am finally allowed to help Alex with his work.

The types of flowers are different, but it’s still fun since I can utilize the knowledge I have on how to raise them.

It was awkward with my co-workers at first, but they welcomed me warmly without being cruel just because I have black hair.

In the course of these peaceful days, I am recently absorbed in domestic chores.

“Haruto, did you know that the 『bento』 you made me is really famous in the work site?” Alex said so on one occasion.

The lunchbox I felt like making for Alex on that day became considerably popular. I completely became the ‘lunch boy’.

Bento, Japanese boxed lunch.

​

I originally lived alone so doing housework is my specialty.

However, when I came to this world where I had no one, the feeling of being needed even for something trivial makes me happy above everything else.

Today, I also cheerfully made Alex’s favorite sweet tamagoyaki.
