“Yurina-san, I made some food. How is the girl doing?”

“…..Thank you. The girl. Much better.”

I had placed 3 servings of fake porridge on a tray and carried it to Yurina-san, who was busy nursing the sick girl. I made this fake porridge using chopped pasta and soup stock made from the isekai version of kelp, zircoot plant. The girl seemed to be doing a lot better compared to when we first brought her here. She was sleeping peacefully on the bed and her fever had gone down too.

When I changed the towel on the girl’s forehead, she opened her eyes. 

“He-Hello. I’m Keigo. How are you feeling? Are you feeling alright?”

“…….Where am I….?”

The girl seemed to be in a state of confusion. 

Anyway,after that, Yurina-san talked with the girl. She asked the girl about a lot of things. It turned out the girl’s name was Tanya. She was an orphan and she had been living in the slum. Yurina-san empathized with the girl upon knowing the girl grew up in similar circumstances as her. 

After hearing the girl’s story, Yurina-san assured the girl. 

“You can stay here until you recover.”

“Then let’s eat first before our food gets cold.”

And so, the three of us started to eat the fake porridge. Ash stood up on his hind leg, looking up at us with his big eyes.

“Give me food!”

Looking at how adorable Ash was, Tanya smiled at Ash. 

Ash, good job!

If she was able to hold a conversation and eat on her own this well, then she wouldn’t need someone on a stand by to nurse her but just to be safe, Yurina-san and I decided to take turns nursing her for today. By the way, the bed Tanya was sleeping on was the guest’s bed. She was staying in the guest room, not in our bedroom.

“Yurina-san, go and take a break first. I will wake you up in 3 hours and then we will swap places.”

“Yeah. Thanks.”

After she said that, Yurina-san went into our bedroom to sleep together with Ash. Having her stomach full with that fake porridge and hot rumi fruit wine I had made, Tanya-san also fell asleep not long after that.

Feeling bored and didn’t have anything to do, I decided to take out a stack of paper and started jotting down some new product ideas from my head. And so, after writing for a while, I also started to feel sleepy and ended up flopping my head on the table.

By the time I realized it, I had already fallen asleep on the table.
