Chapter 10: The scent that ties us
MC: ughh.. (it’s already morning… I’ve been so tired since the bar has become so busy)
Adonis: Good morning. You slept 97 minutes and 32 seconds longer than usual today.
MC: 97 minutes… huh? I slept that much later?
Kamikaze: Looks like your tiredness has caught up with you. Your body is adjusting to the sudden business.
MC: I never really had any confidence in my own physical strength, but maybe I’m getting a bit tired because we have a lot of customers who saw us in the magazine coming.
Gimlet: Compared with before, now it’s a sort of luxurious worry, isn’t it? But don’t strain yourself too much.
Tequila Sunrise: Let’s start raising our strength with some muscle training before we get even busier! If the little lady doesn't have much strength, you’ll notice a difference just by stretching every night before bed for around 3 minutes
Gimlet: And if you forget to do it at night, you can do gymnastics with me in the morning. Whenever you move your body lightly in the morning, you can spend the entire day feeling refreshed. If it’s alright with you, let’s get up at 5:30 and start
MC: 5:30?? Work doesn’t finish until late though.. Do you wake up at 5;30??
Gimlet: I always take a nap before work. So it makes up for the lack of sleep. Also, I think the most important thing is a smoo–
Adonis: Hey, how about I change duties with you. I’ll be in charge of the cooking. With the current state of your body, I can’t bring myself to make you work!
MC: Huh? I’m in charge today?? Sorry! I completely forgot!
Tequila Sunrise: Hahaha, I had a feeling! We’ll help you too, so just take charge for now.
MC: I’m sorry to keep everyone waiting! So instead of having breakfast, we’re having brunch!
Jack Rose: I’m actually really excited about this since we just woke up. *bark* No, you can’t have this..
Salty Dog: It smells delicious!! I really want us to eat it all together!
Manju: *bark*
Blue Moon: It smells good. Is this French toast?
Gimlet: Master made it. Even though she said she wasn’t good at cooking
MC: I don’t know whether this is my best dish or just something I can make really well
Kamikaze: It’s okay to keep this conversation while eating, right? I’m starving.
Tequila Sunrise: Well, let’s dig in!
Adonis: This flavor…
MC: Why are you pushing against your chest? Is it that bad?
Adonis: Oh my gosh… you’re the best! You made French toast that can bring forth happiness from all who eat it
Salty Dog: I want seconds!
Kamikaze: It’s crisp, yet fluffy. It’s not just Adonis, I feel happy just eating it.
MC: You’re all exaggerating. Ah, I’ll give you your seconds.
Gimlet: I also think it’s so delicious! This French Toast has the scent of rum
Blue Moon: When I eat this French toast, it brings back memories from so long ago
Salty Dog: Yeah! This French toast Tastes like the young master’s! Ah, I want another!
MC: You already ate your seconds?
Tequila Sunrise: Salty dog, wait! I haven’t even had my seconds yet!
Kamikaze: She didn’t make that much! There aren’t that many ingredients to make so much!
Jack Rose: huh.. I haven’t eaten any yet..
Blue Moon: Slow down. If you keep eating it like that, you won't be able to savor the flavor.
Jack Rose: Breakfast…is gone? Everyone was saying how delicious it was, all I wanted was just one bite.
MC: Don’t feel so down! I’ll go buy more ingredients and make some more!
Salty Dog: I want to go to! Since I ate so much
Jack Rose: Thanks, you two
MC: I really didn’t think everyone would get so happy over French toast
Salty Dog: It was so delicious! I was so happy it made me remember the times the master made French toast for all of us
Jack Rose: Just the scent of it all really took me back. It was like when Ms. Sumire would make us breakfast.
Glasses Wearing Male: Sumire?
MC: Ah! You’re here!
Glasses Wearing Male: Nice to see you today. I just so happen to live around the area.
MC: I’m sorry you have to see me like this. We ran out of ingredients this morning for breakfast.
Jack Rose: Um… You know Ms. Sumire? You seemed a bit surprised to hear her name earlier…
Glasses Wearing Male: Oh, no. It was just a name that sounded important and lingered on my lips for a moment. I’m sorry for stopping so suddenly like that.
MC: Sorry for stopping you. Please come to the bar again someday. As someone who is important to us, we hope to see you again.
Glasses Wearing Male: I am indebted to your gratitude. I’ll see you later.
