Let's Make a Deal ch10: Stroll On a Day Off

p1
>>The reason for her shock is...

>Hello. Hitsuji Ryouko here.
>Today, we had a physical checkup at the office.
>>Checkup Results - Hitsuji Ryouko
>My weight went up...!
>Oh, so it has.
>How did this happen...?

>I forgot to eat...
>>Morning

>>Noon
>Nom nom

>Beef bowl!
>>Yoshi Beef
>>Evening

>Yeah, that makes sense...
>Today's dinner is beef stew pie packed with meat and veggies.

p2
>You looked terrible on the day of your checkup.
>That so?

>A-Are you okay? You should eat something...
>Hah...
>That won't get me the right results.

>The checkup was in the afternoon, so I had to skip lunch too!
>>Regret
>How did you get any work done?

>I worked like normal, but the section chief acted a bit distant for some reason...
>Hitsuji-san, about this...
>Ah. Never mind.
>They should do it in the morning next year.
>I feel bad for the section chief.

p3
>By the way.
>Hazama-san's memories went back to before her came over, so the same thing happened again.
>I should've erased everthing up to before the flower viewing.
>Introduce me to Adele-san!

>I need to turn him down this time.
>Making a fuss will interfere with everyone's work...
>so I'll need to be indirect...

>My Adele is strict when it comes to house gifts...
>The stone bowl of a Buddha, the jeweled branch of Hourai, the legendary robe of the fire-rat,
>a jewel from a dragon's neck, and a cowry shell born of swallows.
>The five tasks of Princess Kaguya.

>Okay!
>I'll let you know when I have them!
>Are those some trendy snacks or something?
>He probably won't be a problem anymore.
>Hazama-san's an idiot...

p4
>Now that's settled, let's have a toast...
>Hey!!
>You're having cola after dinner!?

>You'll get fat.
>Tsk tsk.
>This action has meaning.

>You should be careful about Barium when you reach 35...!
>It not only tastes bad, but if you burp...!
>Have another!

>In other words, I need to practise holding in my burps...
>Oh dear! Guess I'll have to have another!
>You just want to drink, don't you?
>It's still a long way off for you.

p5
>Getting back on topic.
>Your neutral fat and cholesterol has gone down, so that's not a problem.
>There's still the flab, though...
>I wanna get slim.

>How about going to the gym?
>It's too tall of a hurdle...

>How about jogging?
>Ufufu
>Ahaha
>Ah...

>I'd look stupid without the right jogwear.
>I'm not gonna keep it up anyway, so I don't wanna buy it...
>Giggle giggle
>Giggle giggle
>Oh my, look at that free-to-play runner, Darling.
>You're right, Honey.
>You're overthinking it.

p6
>Besides.
>I'm scared of getting laughed at for being out of shape.
>They won't laugh at you just for running.

>That's not what I think.
>Doesn't she run weird?
>That's a deep darkness.

>Hmm
>Some exercise that others can't see easily...
>>Hanging Equipment
>Not a chance!!
>>Yoga
>>Owowowow
>Body's too stiff.
>>Dance
>I don't know how to regulate that...
>...!

>How about jogging in the air?
>There's someone floating!!
>Is she getting abducted!?
>They'd do far worse than laugh at me.

p7
>In that case...

>Ryouko! Wake up.
>Mmm~

>Today's a day off work, right?
>Go wash your face.

>I've left your clothes here.
>Kay.

>I did a little thinking after that,
>and figured we could start with a stroll.

p8
>Wah.

>Even though there's so many people on weekdays...

>Feels fresh, doesn't it?
>It's like a diffrent street altogether.

>Even just a stroll does wonders for your body.
>Since you really don't exercise.

p9
>Okay~
>Let's go down the alleyways I don't normally take.
>Ah, Ryouko, not that way...

>Wah!

>Cats gather here at this hour.
>You shouldn't disturb them.

>You sure know a lot.
>You're usually asleep around this time, so I get bored.
>...

p10
>Adele-san! There's a café here!

>Looks like it's been here for a while.
>Heh~...
>I had no ideas.

>They do breakfast!

>Should we go in?

>It's fine. Go right in.
>Eeh?
>Please come with me.

p11
>...?
>Giggle... giggle
>Look, Darling. A café beginner.
>You're right, Honey.
>Giggle giggle
>Ryouko must be getting strange ideas again.

>Nobody's going to laugh at you.
>Eh?

>No.
>I just wanted to go in with you since it's a pretty shop...
>Ah. I see...

p12
>We went outside to help her with her diet...
>but we're eating in the end. Was this for the best?

>I've been out of sorts lately...
>Adele-san.

>Walks are fun.
>Thanks for inviting me!

>...You're welcome.

>Let's get breakfast here next time.
>Didn't you want to lose weight?
