Valentine’s Day Cooking!
Jurina sighed and relaxed. She had rarely been able to get some time off like this since succeeding***, and she had been waking up even earlier in mornings to do runs now due to her workload - which meant she didn’t see Seika as much anymore, despite the promise to run with her in the mornings.
This though, was a good chance to talk. Last time, they had talked about Jurina…Or well, Miyuki. She had felt it was one-sided though, and wanted to get to know more about her friend too.
“So Seika…” She sat down on a seat, observing the younger girl. “Tell me more about yourself.”
“Me? Eh, nothin’ special, really. I live with Mama and Papa on Atamistar, and I have two younger siblings - they both challenge me for being super loud! Hehe!”
“My family runs a hotel, so I met Yuko-san and the last Acchan there once. I wasn’t into 00 at the time, but I guess meeting them made me look into the group more!”
Jurina stared at the opposite wall as Seika talked. She smiled.
“So your life was normal, then.” It wasn’t like she expected Seika to have gone through what she had at school - the other girl seemed too nice for that.
“Atamistar…” Jurina pondered while looking at the fridge, hungry but not wanting to say it out loud. “I want to visit there some time. You should take me next vacation!” She said it only half-jokingly - she’d much rather go to another planet than spend another holiday season alone.
