The green demon that easily knocks down the aspirations down to hellā¦ā¦ It was quite an abominable story, but I had a feeling that one day, this day would come.
As soon as I became friends with Raz-san, Iāve been receiving vegetables from her farm every now and then. I knew it was inevitable that bell peppers would appear, and I was wondering if I would be able to accept it without looking uneasy.
Fortunately or unfortunately, no bell peppers had ever been given to me in the past, so I may have been a little carelessā¦ā¦ But I didnāt expect that it would show hereā¦ā¦
With the situation like this, there are only two options for me to choose from.
One is to honestly tell them that I hate bell peppersā¦ā¦ The benefits of this option goes without saying. Raz-san and Tir-san arenāt the kind of people who would force me to do something I donāt want, and if I choose this option, I can avoid the situation where I eat bell peppers.
However, what makes me hesitate to do thisā¦ā¦ is my petty pride. Even if the two of them were actually older than me, telling two people who look younger than me that āI hate bell pepper, so I wonāt eat itāā¦ā¦ I honestly donāt want to say it. This petty desire of mine to look good just wonāt go away.
In that case, the second optionā¦ā¦ is to not tell them that I donāt like bell peppers and just endure it while eating them. The advantage of this option is that I can protect my petty pride. The disadvantage is that I have to eat the bell pepper.
At first glance, it seems like the advantage is small compared to the disadvantages, but picking this option makes it so that I donāt brush away Tir-sanās consideration, so itās a difficult decision to make.
Should I be honest with my dislike of bell peppers or keep silent about itā¦ā¦ As my mind was feeling troubled by what is truly the ultimate challengeā¦ā¦ A helping hand came from someone I hadnāt expected.
[Tir, that wonāt do. Kaitokun-san slightly dislike bell pepper-san. Thatās why, you should take out something else.]
[Y- Yes, well, thatās right. I guess you could say that I slightly, or rather, just a tinsy little bitā¦ā¦ dislike it.]
[Iām sorry about that. In that case, how about tomatoes?]
[ā¦ā¦Ah, yes, I like tomatoes.]
Yes, Raz-san rebuked Tir-sanā¦ā¦ Arehh? Have I told Raz-san that I donāt like bell peppers? No, I shouldnāt have told herā¦ā¦ I mean, Iāve been trying to keep this secret from being known by others as much as possible.
[ā¦ā¦Raz-san, errr, how is it that, ummm, you knew that I donāt like bell peppers?]
[Errr. Kuromu-sama told me beforeā¦ā¦]
When I tilted my head, Raz-san told me about her previous interaction with Kuro.
It happened about two years ago. When Razelia-san was working in the field. While Razelia was working in her field as usual, Kuromueina visited her and told her about Kaito.
[I think Raz will also get along well with Kaito-kun, and there will be opportunities to give him presents like vegetables or such things.]
[Yes! Raz also wants for Kaitokun-san to eat the vegetables I made!]
[Unnn. Razās vegetables are really delicious and Iām sure Kaito-kun will like themā¦ā¦ but thereās one thing I want you to be mindful about.]
[Something I need to be mindful of?]
[Itās not that Kaito-kun canāt eat them, but he doesnāt like the taste of bell peppers. Thatās why, when you give Kaito-kun vegetables, Iād like it if you donāt put bell peppers in them. Of course, with how kind Kaito-kun is, if you give him bell peppers, Iām sure heāll accept it with a smile, but I donāt think itās good to unreasonably make him eat something he doesnāt like.]
[Ayaya, so thatās the case. Raz doesnāt like meat either, so I know how he feels! I understand. Iāll make sure that Kaitokun-san doesnāt give him bell pepper-san.]
Razelia remembered about having such a brief exchange.
ā¦ā¦Ah, Iām falling in love with her all over again. What a perfect consideration, she has.
Anticipating that Raz-san would give me vegetables, for her to have talked about this beforehandā¦ā¦ So thatās why there had never been bell peppers in the vegetables that Raz-san had given me.
Moreover, by not saying that I canāt eat bell peppers, and saying that I just slightly dislike bell peppers insteadā¦ā¦ It makes them think that āI can eat it, but I donāt like it very muchā, which protects my petty pride.
And to top it off, probably quite a while agoā¦ā¦ It seemed like she had told Raz-san as soon as she found out about my dislike for bell peppers, but she didnāt tell me about it, something I would have been thankful to her, and was just secretly supporting me instead.
If it hadnāt been for this exchange, I wouldnāt have known that Kuro had told Raz-san about it.
To be honest, Iām a little, no, Iām really moved. If I had to describe it, it was just as I had said earlier. Iām falling in love with her all over again.
No, seriouslyā¦ā¦ As long as baby castellas arenāt involved, Kuro is an impeccable lover. Unnn, seriouslyā¦ā¦ as long as baby castellas arenāt involvedā¦ā¦
