Take Responsibility For My Stomach! ch3

p1
>Mrm...

>Fwah...

>Guess I'll get up...

p2
>Let's see. I've gotten breakfast all ready...

>I wonder how that thing I put aside yesterday is doing...

>Oh. It's looking nice and firm.
>Eh? What's that!? Is that perhaps jelly!?

p3
>Morning, Ritsu. It's something like that.
>Amazing! Is it some kind of sweet!?

>You'll find out later tonight.
>Eh~? Can I have a taste?
>No. No tasting! You'll have to wait just as much as I am.

p4
>Come on! It's no big deal~
>It is a big deal, physically speaking.

>I'll be making it into something good tonight.
>Hmm... Fine, I'll wait...

>Good girl. Right, then. Let's have breakfast.
>Okay~

>Campus Grounds
>Phew~

p5
>Today's breakfast was delicious!
>Glad to hear that.

>You'd make a fine wife, Ruka~
>Hmm. I wonder about that.

>I'm no good at anything outside of cooking.
>You'd make better suited to it, Ritsu.
>Eh... You think so...?
>Yeah. You'd be a fine mom.
>...Is that supposed to be a compliment?
>Ah.

>Alright, I'm heading this way.
>Okay. See you tonight.
>>Art Building
>>Childcare Building

p6
>>Art Room 3

>Ah.
>It's Kanou-san.

>Rare to see you here first thing in the morning.
>Well, y'know. I've been putting off my assignments for too long...
>Let's all do it together~

>You better get your act together quickly~
>Yeah.

>Okay then.

p7
>Good night~
>You're gonna sleep!?

>Man... I've been so busy looking after my girl lately...
>Y-Your girl!? Since when did you have a kid...?

>...
>Kanou-san...?

p8
>Oh dear...
>She really is a sleep.
>In a way, that's kinda just like Kanou-san...

>But
>now that I see her up close...

>F-For now, let's put a blanket on her!
>Mm...
>Y-Yeah!

p9
>Ooh...

>That's a big pile of manjuu.
>I'm guessing this is a dream.

>Mm Yummy~
>Well, it's fine to fill my stomach in a dream, right?

>Okay, next is~

>Ah~
>This sweet bean

p10
>bun.

>Mm...

>Ah, Kanou-san. You're awake.

p11
>>Bags of snacks and bread

>You were munching something in your sleep so we fed you one to see what would happen...
>It was just so cute that we gave you a whole bunch of them.
>Ehe

>I ate... Ritsu... I thought she was manjuu... I'm sorry...
>Eh?
>You ate Tsukada-san...?

>Uuh...
>I don't think I could face Ritsu...

>I'm home...

p12
>GYAH!?

>What's wrong, Ritsu!? Did something...

>So salty...

p13
>Pft

>Ahahaha! You ate that jelly!?
>I-I couldn't help it! I was getting hungry and thought a little jelly couldn't hurt...

>Ah, that's hilarious.
>You really are the best, Ritsu.

>Well I'm feeling the worst right now!
>What the heck is that jelly anyway? It's not sweet at all...

>Fufu. Well, y'see...
>I wanted to help you out today, Ritsu.
>?

p14
>Here.
>I've got one ready.

>So this was for gyouza...?
>Surprised?

>Okay. The real issue starts here...
>I want you to make half of them...

>but can you skill match up to mine?

>You shouldn't underestimate me.
>My grades in drawing and manual arts are 3.5...! That's above the average.
>That sounds questionable...

p15
>I regret everything...!

>Of course an arts student like you would win, Ruka...
>It's nothing to do with that. There's a trick to it.

>Try making the curves on just one side instead of both of them.
>Eh? That's all?

>No way... To think something so trivial could make such a difference...

p16
>E-Erm...

>I think it's good that your works have such personality, Tsukada-san.
>You're clearly trying to force compliments on something that doesn't deserve any!

>That shape is just fine.

>What's important is that we made them together.

>Ruka...

p17
>Why are you putting them in seperate frying pans...?
>Ah, this?

>I didn't want your to contaminate mine so I'm keeping them seperate.
>That's way too cruel!!

>Okay.
>Let's open it.

>Ooh!!

p18
>It looks delicious!

>The shape doesn't matter once it's fried up, huh?
>Never mind that! Let's eat already! I'm starving!
>Yeah. Okay...

>Let's dig in!

p19
>The meat's juice

>are penetrating through me~!
>Mm~<3

p20
>Delicious! This is amazing, Ruka!
>Really? Glad to hear it.

>The moment I put it inside my mouth...

>Hah...
>It's penetrating me...

>Actually, there's no meat in it.
>Eh? Really!?

>Instead, I've pack the meat's umami into that jelly.
>So that's what the jelly is for... No wonder it wasn't sweet...

p21
>It's a little something I thought of to expand the range of what you can eat on your diet.

>I could've never thought of something like this~

>I'm really glad you're by my side, Ritsu.
>Thank you.

>Ritsu...

p22
>Let's both keep doing our best.
>Yeah! You can count on me!

>By the way, have you been sneaking bites all this time?
