Yuki Rurikawa/The Door to Summer

A Cheeky Middle Schooler's Weakness

Backstage Stories

Part 1

Izumi	We're holding a newcomer welcome party today!
	I got a little bit excited for that and bought some takeout sushi!
Muku	Whoaaa!!
Citron	Sushi, it's really delicious! Amaebi, is there one? I like amaebi!
Sakuya	I want to eat ikura!
Kazunari	Uni for me!
Tsuzuru	Wait, wait, don't rush!
	Ah, Muku, Yuki, if there's also something that you want, tell me. I'll pick it for you.
Izumi	(As expected of Tsuzuru-kun. At time like this, he's the best at displaying onii-chan power–)
	Okay, I'll leave the tea here.
Masumi	I want it. The tea that you brewed yourself.
Muku	Thank you, Director-san!
Tenma	Hm, this sushi is just so so.
Yuki	Hold on, trashy actor! Don't just eat the toro ones!
Misumi	Is there any onigiri~?
Tsuzuru	There are no onigiri today. We have squids and scallops, though. What do you want to eat?
Misumi	Then, I want this triangle sushi!
Tsuzuru	The ebi one? But where's the triangle...
Kazunari	Tsuzurun, maybe he's referring to the tail.
Misumi	Great answer, Kazu~! I'll give you Super Triangle-kun~!
Kazunari	Hurraaay! I don't really get it, but I am happy!
Yuki	...... Here.
Izumi	Eh?
Yuki	I'll give you the tuna one.
Izumi	Is it okay? Thanks, Yuki-kun.
	(What a rare sight. He always makes spiteful remarks and all, but he actually has this kind of cute side, huh.)
Tsuzuru	Yuki, do you hate tuna?
Yuki	Not really, I just don't feel like eating one right now.
Tsuzuru	I see. Then, do you want to eat anything else? It will be gone soon, you know.
Yuki	... Cucumber roll, then.
Izumi	Eh, there are still shrimps and salmons, you know, are you okay with that?
Tsuzuru	You've only been eating tamago rolls and kanpyo rolls since a while ago, right?
Yuki	This one is good. ... *munch*
	...uh!!!!!! ~~~~~~~!!!!!!!
Izumi	Yuki-kun!? What's wrong, are you all right!?
Yuki	Move!! Why, why did they put wasabi here!?
Izumi	Ah, you're right. Isn't it normal, though?
Yuki	It's not!!
Izumi	... Could it be that you only ate tamago rolls and its kind because you can't eat wasabi, Yuki-kun?
Yuki	... Is that bad?
Izumi	(I see....)
	That's not it. Everyone must have food that they hate, see.
	Ah right, Yuki-kun, what's your favorite food? I'll make it for dinner tomorrow.
Yuki	Nothing in particular, you don't have to worry about it.
Izumi	But it looks like there's a lot of wasabi in today's sushi, you know. So let's eat Yuki-kun's favorite food together with everyone.
Yuki	Then... Omelette rice.
Izumi	(Omelette rice... He said he's not good with wasabi. Somehow, that's just like a middle schooler, huh.)
	Yuki-kun is cute, huh.
Yuki	... Well, I am cuter than you.
Izumi	... He's not cute, after all...
