Izumi You took a bite of the crepe and looked at Saiki with an apologetic look: "I'm sorry, Saiki-san and Shikimori-san originally agreed that I would treat you today, but I didn't expect this to happen. In the end, it's you, Saiki, who will treat me."

I had originally been very enthusiastic about inviting others out for a meal, but in the end, I let others treat me. Who among my family members understands this feeling?

[Don't worry about it.]

Shikimori consoled him, "It's okay, Izumi-san. When you find your wallet, just bring it back next time. Maybe it will fall at your doorstep."

"It would be great if it really fell at my doorstep, but that's probably not going to happen."

(Who knows!)

Shikimori took a bite of walnut and custard sauce, "Thank you, Saiki."

[fine]

Izumi Yu: "But this is really delicious."

"Eh? You, why are you here?"

A middle-aged man who was dressed simply, had a small mustache, had some gray hair, was a little fat and looked very amiable came over.

There was also a mature and charming woman who looked to be in her 30s accompanying him. She looked a bit like Izumi You, but you could tell at a glance that she was as young as a child.

Izumi You: "Huh? Mom and Dad, why are you here?"

The woman whom Izumi You called mother frowned and touched her face, then sighed and said, "Come to buy something, and You, you kid, you left your wallet at the door."

"Oh... ah, sorry."

Izumi reached out and took the wallet.

“It turned out that it really fell at the doorstep.”

Shikimori asked Izumi quietly, "Who are these two Izumi-san?"

"Oh!"

Izumi Yuu responded and introduced: "Saiki-kun and Shikimori-kun, these two are my parents."

"Mom and Dad, this is Saiki-san and Shikimori-san. They always take care of me."

Shikimori bowed and greeted, "Hello! Izumi-san's father and mother."

[Hello, uncle and aunt.]

Izumi's mother held her face and said happily: "You are the Saiki-san and Shikimori-san that my Yuu always talks about."

"I'm sorry that you guys take care of my Youduo. This child is always so reckless."

Izumi Yu's father: "Well, now I see that you two are really the same as Yu said, which makes me feel relieved."

Shikimori replied: "That's not the case. Izumi-san is very kind and gentle to others. The students around him also like him. It is normal for classmates to help each other."

"We are relieved to hear you say that. By the way, what are your plans next?"

After Izumi put away his wallet

"No, I wanted to treat Saiki and Shiki to dessert, but my wallet disappeared, so it was Saiki who treated me..."

Izumi Yu's father: "Is that so? Then, Yu, why don't you invite your classmates to your home? We have already bought some food."

Izumi Yu's mother also agreed: "This is a good idea. I will also cook a good meal to entertain your classmates."

Izumi looked at Saiki and Shikimori and asked nervously, "Is this okay?"

The "I'm fine" style smiles and indicates that there is no problem.

Izumi Yu's father: "Haha, really? That's good."

"So what about you, Saiki-san?"

[Yeah, that’s fine with me.]

Originally, Qi Mu wanted to go back and rest early after watching the movie, but it would be okay to go for a meal. Anyway, he would have to cook when he got home, and if he cooked something himself, he would only be able to eat instant noodles.

Izumi Yu clenched his fists: "Great!!!"

……………………In the evening

Saiki sat in the living room of Izumi's house and looked at the food train that was set out.

Shikimori: "It looks delicious, Saiki-san."

[Yeah! It looks delicious.]

(Home-cooked meals are delicious, too.)

Chapter 52 Izumi's Past

Qi Mu looked at the table and saw spaghetti with meatballs in meat sauce, shrimp and broccoli salad, fried chicken, minced meat with miso and bean sprouts...

[It must be delicious.]

Izumi Yu's mother was very happy to see her son bringing his friends to her home: "You're welcome, eat more!"

Shikishou: "Thank you. I'll be welcome then."

[You’re welcome.]

"Then I'll get you some food."

Izumi Yu's mother picked up the kitchen tongs to help her pick up the spaghetti meatballs, but she dropped it halfway.

As luck would have it, a fork fell on the plate of spaghetti meatballs, and then flew into the air and hit Izumi You's face.

Just as the fork was about to hit Izumi Yu, Saiki stood up and grabbed the fork in his hand.

“Pah pah pah!!!”

Izumi's parents clapped their hands at the same time, "Oh! That's amazing."

(Is this the time to clap?)

Shikimori couldn't help but complain: "This... I can feel your strong blood relationship."

In fact, she also wanted to take action just now, but Qi Mu acted too quickly and was overtaken by her.

Izumi Yuu asked a little worriedly, "Sorry, Saiki-san, are you okay?"

[fine. ]

"I'm so sorry, Saiki-san. Come on, let me pick up some more food for you."

After apologizing, Izumi You's mother reached out to pick up the fork to pick it up again, but Shikimori took it away nervously.

"Forget it... Forget it, Izumi-san's mother, just sit down and let me do it!"

(Well done, Shikimori-san.)

"Oh, Shikimori-san is such a good kid."

Izumi's mother held her face with one hand and smiled with relief.

..............................

Shikimori took a bite of noodles and said, "Mm, it's really delicious. It tastes just as good as the ones bought in the store."

Qi Mu also rolled up the noodles with a fork and took a bite.

[Mm, it’s really delicious.]

“Eat more.”

"You are welcome"

After a while, Saiki and Shikimori's plates were full of food, especially Saiki's plate, which was almost overflowing.

Izumi You smiled and whispered, "I'm sorry, Saiki-san, my parents seem to be too enthusiastic."

[It doesn't matter]

Qi Mu thought that if he also brought his classmates home for dinner, his parents would be as enthusiastic as Izumi's parents.

……………………After dinner

Shikimori helped Izumi's mother wash the dishes, while Saiki sat on the sofa next to the sleeping Izumi Yu.

(It’s not a good idea to sleep right after eating, but forget it.)

Izumi's mother said while washing the dishes: "By the way, thank you so much for accompanying You like this."

"It's okay, we are friends."

Izumi's mother covered her mouth with one hand, looking a little disdainful: "Shikimori-san, don't you take this opportunity to ask something? For example, photos of You in junior high school, photos of you as a baby."

Shikimori showed an interested expression, but then he withdrew his expression: "This is not good. Izumi-san is asleep, and I am just looking at his old photos..."

Izumi's mother took out a photo album and opened it to introduce Shikimaru

"Come here, look at this photo of You in elementary school. Isn't it cute? It was during the school sports meet, and in the last half, he fell down. What a pity."

"And this, this is a photo of the child in kindergarten. Let me tell you, when the child was young, it was funny..."

Shikimori looked at the photos with great interest and did not forget to invite Saiki: "Saiki-san, Saiki-san, come and take a look at Izumi-san's childhood photos. This is really interesting."

Izumi's mother also waved and invited: "That's right, Saiki-san, why don't you come and take a look at You's childhood photos? They are really interesting. Look at the diapers when he was in elementary school..."

[This is not nice, but forget about looking at other people's childhood photos while they are asleep.]

"That's it, okay."

Shikimori and Izumi's mother turned their backs to Saiki, looking at the photo album and laughing.

Qi Mu looked at the two of them.

[Well, it’s not good to just peek into other people’s things. Even if you get permission from their parents, it’s still a bit embarrassing to look at your own childhood photos if they find out. That’s right]

This is the statement of someone who kind of regrets not having watched it.

Izumi's father: "It's okay, Saiki-san. If you want to watch it, go ahead. I don't think You will mind."

[No, I have no interest in this kind of thing.]

(If you show your childhood photos to your classmates and friends, you will feel a little shy.)

(I remember that when I was in junior high school, a few of my friends came to my house, and my parents showed their old photos and videos to their classmates)

(It was really awkward at that time, I don’t know why? Maybe some people don’t think it’s a big deal, but for me it was as awkward as singing birthday songs at a birthday party. I just don’t like this kind of part.)

(At that time, my brother, Saiki Daisuke, seemed to be jealous and took away all my photos. He also told my parents that the photos could only be shown to family members.)

Qi Mu held his forehead and said, "I thought of that strange person again."

"Hey, what's wrong?"

[No, it's okay.]

Izumi's father said excitedly: "Is that so? It's okay. Then I will tell you about You's childhood. When You was very young, two years old, he once..."

Saiki: …………

Izumi's mother watched Saiki and her husband chatting happily there and then began to wash the last dish. She lowered her head and said to Shikimori, "Shikimori-san, can I ask you and Saiki-san for a favor?"

Shiki was a little confused. "What's going on?"

Izumi's mother is trapped in memories

"When that child You was in elementary school..."

In the memory, Izumi You's mother seems younger. She is holding the child in front of her, Izumi You, who is wrapped in bandages and Band-Aids all over his body. He doesn't look like a child of his age who should be enduring pain.

(Alas, was this the case when I was a kid?)

Izumi's mother was worried and Izumi You was in elementary school.

"You, be careful of cars when you walk on the road. Look up, down and behind you when you walk."

Izumi smiled and replied, "Really, it's okay, mom. I don't want to get hurt."

After saying that, he put his hand on his mother's head, comforted her, then walked out the door with a smile.

Going back to reality.

"So I was very worried and couldn't even send him out with a smile."

Shikimori just wanted to comfort.
