Christmas (Part 2)

"Next, it's your turn, Sawamura!!"

"Yeah!!! It's finally my turn!!

The moment I've been waiting and waiting for!!

What on earth is inside this package..." Sawamura was unusually excited, staring at the package before him with intense curiosity, ready to enjoy the moment the mystery was revealed.

"Ah! That one's mine!

It's a machine that lets anyone easily slice hard-boiled eggs!" Miyuki interrupted Sawamura the instant he saw the package.

"Ah...! I got spoiled before I even opened it..." The surprise vanished from Sawamura's face in an instant, replaced by a disgusted expression as though he had been spoiled. He muttered viciously.

"A tool for easily slicing boiled eggs, commonly known as an egg cutter!

It's hard to cut boiled eggs with a knife, but with this, you can conveniently slice them into rounds!

Even someone as clumsy as you can slice them easily and toss them into a salad!" Miyuki proudly pitched the product, not forgetting to take a jab at Sawamura at the end.

So what exactly is this thing useful for? Sendou thought helplessly.

"Hahaha!

It really is convenient! I always got frustrated when cutting eggs before...

Wait, I don't make salads... And I'm not clumsy!!!" Sawamura had been happy at first, but suddenly caught on.

"Hahaha!

I'm just stating facts!

After all, you can never hit the ball when you bat!!"

"That really hits the mark, Senior Miyuki!!" Kanemaru Mama quipped.

"Damn it! You're treating me like an idiot!!

I was so looking forward to the gift exchange... Give my expectations back, you Goggles Catcher!!!"

"Hahahahaha!" Miyuki laughed loudly.

"Ah!!

And you're acting like it's no big deal!!

No, wait!

I hit the ball yesterday!!!"

"Hahaha! That one doesn't count!!"

"Why?!!

Damn it!!!"

"You're so damn noisy! Sawamura!!" Senior Kuramochi cursed.

"But, Senior Kuramochi!!!" Sawamura shouted.
