Overthinking was a terrifying thing. In Utaha Kasumigaoka's imagination, she had already become a shameless noble from medieval Europe, ruthlessly exploiting a poor peasant—Sogo Doma.
Despite doing nothing at all, she got to taste delicious cooking every day...
Despite knowing how troublesome it was to make boxed lunches, she enjoyed the fruits of Sogo Doma's labor with a clear conscience...
Despite...
That was right. Even if Sogo really was like an alien, he still got tired. Why could she enjoy it all so righteously? Just because of that joke of a maid identity? If anything, shouldn't a maid be the one preparing boxed lunches for her master...
At that thought.
Utaha Kasumigaoka's expression darkened again. Damn it, she had said she already understood her own feelings, yet she had taken every little thing happening around her for granted. She had even wanted to face Sogo with a war of love, insisting that he confess first. She really was an idiot!
Sogo had already done so much for her, yet she craved even more. By now, her desires had already troubled him, and ridiculously enough, Utaha Kasumigaoka herself had not noticed in the slightest...
Fortunately, she had noticed Sogo's efforts and troubles now. That meant she had to change as well!
Watching Utaha Kasumigaoka's ever-changing expression, Sogo Doma secretly let out another sigh of relief. As long as I stop bringing boxed lunches to school from now on, Kasumigaoka will gradually give up craving my cooking, right? Then she won't start craving my body because of it either. Damn, I'm smart. As expected of me!
"Well, that's how it is. So Mashiro and I will be going to the cafeteria during lunch break. Kasu... Shiba, are you coming with us, or do you need us to bring anything back for you?"
