Thank you for giving me your contact details. This is Kaname Yako.

Thank you for reaching out.

Yuki Nomoto here.

So, your name "Yu" actually came from "Yuki", huh?

That's right.

I also actually thought that "Yako" was your first name.

It's actually your family name.

That's right. Quite unusual, isn't it?

She loves to cook and She loves to eat

This is what we wanted to give away at the end of the week after next, right?

That's right.

Gosh, there's quite a lot to do, huh?

February 14 Wednesday

Wait. Isn't it Valentines next week?

You're right. It's on a Wednesday.

Did you make plans?

Plans?

With Kasuga.

No, uhh... No plans in particular though.

Really? Aren't you going to give her chocolates?

Chocolates?

Right...

I've been able to do this much...

But, don't you think she would see it as a love confession?

What?

Well, as far as conventional culture goes, then yes.

Right? - What?

Ms. Sayama, I'm actually scared to do that.

I'm scared that our relationship might change.

There's this feeling that I want to keep it that way

and a part of me that I don't.

You're right. I mean, there's that...

Just give it casually?

Isn't it totally fine if you want to express your daily gratitude or something?

Casually?

Like, "Here's some chocolate."

No, I just can't do that!

You're right, that's too much for you.

Excuse me. - Yes!

About this one...

Yes?

There has been a change.

Change?

Overall, they want to add more pop-up specifications.

Is that so? Let's add more then. More.

Ms. Fujita, thank you for your hardwork.

Ms. Kasuga, thank you for working hard.

Excuse me for a bit.

Excuse me. - Yes?

I wanted to talk to you about my shift.

Let's talk about it at the back.

DAD

Hello?

Can't you atleast answer my calls?

Do you know how many times I've called?

Why don't you just come home already?

Your mom's got her hands full with taking care of your grandma.

It's not like you're doing much work over there either.

Wandering around instead of getting married.

Haven't you had enough?

Is that all that you're calling for?

That's harsh of you.

Do you have any idea how hard it has been for your mom?

Your grandma is showing signs of dementia.

Anyway, it's been tough everyday!

Akira came by to visit.

Isn't Akira going to help out?

He lives nearby, doesn't he?

That would be too unfair for him!

He's at his prime of life.

He's going to have it hard once the baby's coming.

It would be pitiful to have him care for her at such a time.

Besides, Akira is the eldest son.

How about you?

You're making mom do everything.

When grandma's your own parent.

Don't you have desire to help out your family at all?!

Why have you always been like this?!

Both your grandma and your mom...

How long do you think they've been taking care of you?!

Kasuga! Welcome back.

Did you just get home too, Nomoto?

Yeah.

Nomoto... - Kasuga...

Sorry. What is it?

Well...

Seems like chicken meat is cheap at the supermarket in front of the station tomorrow.

Is that so? - Yes.

You could buy them in bulk and freeze them.

It's true. I've heard good things.

Well then.

See you.

By donuts, do you mean "that"?

Yes, that. - Really?

I heard that it's all the rage again now,

especially among young people. - Really?

This restaurant is also so popular that it sells out

within a few hours of opening!

What kind of donuts could these be?

It's all freshly fried. - Woah! Amazing!

They're freshly made doughnuts.

Looks good! I'll dig right into it!

Good evening.

Oh? What's the matter?

You've been on the balcony all this time and I couldn't help myself.

Gotta be careful, you shouldn't lean that much over there.

Right.

Aren't you cold?

It is cold, huh?

You're right.

Are you close with your family, Nagumo?

What?

They send you food and all that, don't they?

It's not like I'm close with them, it's more of...

I just think they worry about me.

Is that so?

They know I quit from my work.

They ask if I'm eating well? Or if I'm doing alright?

We've always taken pride when it came to eating a lot in the past.

It was a home that taught you on how to stay healthy if you ate well.

But I couldn't always eat as much as my parents expected.

Anyway, I know you'd want me to eat too, right?

That's rather difficult for me.

Is that so?

It was the opposite in my case.

What?

In my family, my brother is the oldest son,

so he gets priority in some way.

I was given less side dishes than my brother,

and I was not given enough to eat.

I see.

It's been a long time since I've done this much unknowingly.

Kasuga, I'm sorry for messaging you this late at night.

Do you like donuts?

I'll just bring it with me tomorrow.

It was delicious.

That's so cool.

Nomoto is from the Tohoku region,

and she made grilled rice balls using Sendai miso paste.

Grilled rice balls with miso paste?

Yes.

That sounds good.

It was the first time I've had one.

Good evening.

Good evening.

I'm so sorry!

I had no idea, and yet I asked you out for some meal...

So, that's how it is.

Not at all. Although...

I'm glad you invited me out.

If so, then that makes me glad.

But still, you actually started making donuts at this time.

What?

And this much...

Well, it's...

I have this habit of impulsively cooking large quantity of food

when I'm thinking or something...

In large quantities...?

T-That's right...

Putting it that way makes me seem like a sketchy person or something.

No, not at all.

You don't really seem sketchy, I rather find it amazing.

Nomoto is amazing, really.

How exactly do you shape a donut?

Well, there are many ways to do it,

but today I will try to make it by hand.

First up, cut this into four quarters.

Poke a hole using your finger...

Like this.

It's a donut.

Let's keep making donuts in this way.

Alright.

And then, with two fingers...

Roll, roll, roll. That's it.

This much?

It would be better to make the hole a bit bigger than that.

With your two fingers. - Right.

How about this?

A bit bigger maybe? - Bigger?

It's done!

Amazing!

A mountain of donuts like the ones in a picture book.

I have to take a photo. Photo, photo...

Can I move it?

Thank you.

Looking good.

Nagumo, will a drink do for you?

Is there anything you want to drink?

I have milk so I can make milktea for you.

Well then, yes.

I'll gladly have some.

Just the right amount of sweetness.

It's delicious. - Right?

The milktea is delicious.

Really? I'm glad!

Nagumo, would you like to bring home some donuts for later?

Would you be able to eat it at your place?

Yes, as long as I'm by myself. Is that okay?

Of course. You can have it for breakfast tomorrow and such.

Thank you so much.

It's been so long since I've done something like this.

To talk with people over food.

I see.

If you don't want to answer, it's fine but can I ask...

When did it become difficult for you to eat with others?

Around grade school, I guess?

I looked it up on the internet and I found out that it's something called "Deipnophobia."

Deipnophobia - a form of social anxiety disorder, manifesting as the fear of eating in front of others.

Deipnophobia?

I heard that a lot of people get it

in grade school during school lunch detention.

Lunch detention - when you can't finish your lunch, they make you stay behind until you finish it.

Lunch detentions were around when we were kids too.

I once felt sorry for a kid who couldn't get their lunch down until the next class.

With a scary teacher, at that.

That's right.

Since then, when I go out to eat with someone,

I get so anxious about what I should do if I can't eat or what I will do

if I leave some food behind and other stuff.

That must have been hard on you.

I... I didn't know that you have a phobia of dining out,

but are you seeing a doctor about it?

I haven't gone to the hospital for it.

Is that so?

I'm thinking it might be

a good idea to go to the hospital and see if it gets better.

It was quite difficult for me to talk about it with people,

and I often had trouble getting along with others.

But I realized that it is very comforting to be told in this way

that it's okay for me to just have a drink

and that it's okay for me not have to eat at all.

I may not be able to eat it right now,

but I'm looking forward to eating it tomorrow.

That makes me glad.

You should bring some with you too, Kasuga.

Thank you so much.

By the way, how many will you be bringing with you?

Four... 5 pieces.

Six.

Six?

You're really going for it.
