Takashima/Sekka birthday 2019 - 4

A heartfelt "Thank you" - 4

[Home Ec room]

Sek: Aagh, my arm's so tired! Why isn't there an electric mixer here!?

Hin: Sekka-san, don't stop moving your hands! Meringue is essential to making a sponge cake!

Tak: Secchan, you can do it! The future of delicious cake rests on your shoulders!

Hin: Yuuna-san, if you look away while sprinkling the flour you're going to get the proportions wrong, so be careful.

Tak: Waah, sorry! I'll be more careful.

Hin: Good answer. Okay, you two, don't let your guard down until we're done!

Sek: The way Hinata keeps smiling through this Spartan cooking course is scary...

Hin: Sekka-san, you can move your mouth if you want, but don't stop your hands while doing that.

Sek: Roger! I've gotta say though, didn't expect cake to be such a hassle to make.

Hin: But the more effort and time it takes to make one, the more love you pour into it, making it all the more delicious!

Sek: We've been having all sorts of celebrations every month, huh. Cakes, feasts, events...

Tak: Yeah. Everyone's put so much love into them! It's so fun to celebrate something with your precious friends.

Sek: Ever since we came to this world, every day's been so fun, passing by before you knew it...

Sek: But when every day is this fun, it's going to feel really lonely back in the real world...

Sek: I want to take them all back with me...

Tak: Them all?

Sek: The wonderful presents I got from everyone last year, or the memories I made with them here...

Hin: Sekka-san...

Tak: Secchan, listen... I think...

Sek: Eh? Yuuna, what was that?

Tak: Ah, don't mind that. We might be in the middle of cooking, but we have to go and take those Vertexes down!

Sek: Hinata, is it okay to leave everything like this?

Hin: Yeah, I'll prepare things so we can continue right after you come back.
