I don't own MMPPP.
Hanon yawned lazily, stretching and then hopping to her feet.
"I must make a bento for Tarou-chan!" She announced awkwardly.
Hanon didn't know where the idea came from, but she decided it was a good enough idea.
She took out several ingredients, including rice, condiments, and such.
After a few hours, it was complete - and she knew Nagisa would be so jealous.
It was gorgeous, with rice balls and shrimp rolls -- !!
But.. What was it missing?
She knew for a fact the beautiful lunch box was complete in every aspect, according to her eyes.
Riing.
Hanon picked up the phone wearily. "Hello?"
"Hanon-chan!" A voice cheerily rang out.
"N..Nagisa-kun."
She immediately realized that she was missing the most important ingridient -
Her love.
It wasn't that she stopped talking to him or anything; but they weren't as close.
Like they were ever close.
Her eyes widened. Of course.
"Hanon..? Hanon-chan?"
"Ah.. Yes?"
"I scored tickets to a Christmas concert..!"
"Really."
"Yeah!"
Hanon paused. Her love.. could it possibly have stopped longing for Tarou and went for Nagisa?
"Hanon-chan!" He said brightly. "Will you come?"
"Ahn." The aquamarine mermaid smiled warmly, and hung up.
Maybe Nagisa wouldn't have to be jealous after all.
Maybe Nagisa could have the bento - filled with spirit and happiness - himself.
