Volume 1 Chapter 3.4 - Shimizu-sans Bentō
Shimizu-san’s Bentō 4
Since I took the initiative to talk to him, I wanted to at least know the reason for his sigh.
“Well, I forgot something today.”
“What did you forget? “
“My wallet. Thanks to that, I couldn’t buy lunch. I was wondering what I should do.”
Indeed, looking at Hondō’s desk, there is no bread, which he usually eats during lunch break. But if that’s the only problem, the solution is simple.
“If it’s just a matter of money, why don’t you borrow some from Matsuoka? He can at least lend you some money for lunch.”
Matsuoka should be the first person Hondō would turn to in this situation.
“That’s true. Toshiya would have lent me the money if he was around, but he’s away during the lunch break because there is a soccer club meeting today. I wish I could have realized that I had forgotten my wallet before Toshiya left.”
I looked around the classroom, and Matsuoka was nowhere to be seen.
“Well, there’s nothing I can do about it, I guess I won’t have lunch today. I’m sorry for worrying you, Shimizu-san.”
“I’m not worried about you.”
