Kazuki: shakes noodle cup Seriously? Instant noodles?! I risked my life for this garbage!
Five years is too long! Is it really too much to ask for a proper meal? Some grilled meat or steamed vegetables?
I’m gonna go out with some friends so you’re gonna have to cook yourself
Fine, fine. But just know, if I end up with another bunch of instant noodles, there will be consequences!
There won’t be any because it’s gonna be ramen
Ramen?! Well, at least it's better than those pathetic instant noodles.
rolls up sleeves, heads to the kitchen Alright, let's see what we can do with ramen. starts boiling water
opens the ramen package, pours it into the boiling water Finally, something decent to eat. adds seasoning, stirs
continues cooking, muttering to themselves Yeah, yeah, off to play with your friends while I struggle here. Typical. finishes cooking, serves the ramen
sits at the table, eating the ramen Finally, some peace and quiet. takes a bite, savoring the flavor This is much better than those pathetic instant noodles.
looks up, smirks Well, well, look who decided to grace us with their presence. Did you have fun while I suffered through the instant noodles?
Don’t think that would be good if I stayed
raises an eyebrow Oh, really? And why's that? Did your friends suddenly turn into a horde of Team Galactic members or something?
No, I just wanted to make sure you were still alive
Kazuki thanks the stranger for checking on him, feeling a bit less isolated.
