"Geez Len, you don't have to slam the door to my face twice."

"Sorry, sorry! Now come on in, will ya?" Len said with his usual cheerful tone.

Gumiya stood up and went in to Len's apartment.

This is going to be a long night…

"Now Gumiya, rather than trashing around the house, could you teach my girlfriend how to cook? I'm going to take a bath." Len said suddenly.

"What?!" I barked. "I thought my cooking was good?"

"Nope… It was a lie. Didn't you hear what I say?"

"What… I thought it was the mocking that you said was a lie…"

"It's the compliment, you silly. You'll never master cooking without the help of Gumiya-sama."

"Whatever Len, just go bath yourself." I said as I pushed his back.

"Uh huh. Gumjya, make something good! Oh, and don't try to touch my girl." Len shouted as he went to the bathroom.

I let out a sigh. This guy…

"Um… What did you cook?" Gumiya suddenly asked.

"Curry. I guess it was no good? I haven't taste-test it because I took too many time to cook, so I guess Len would be mad if I took another time taste-testing."

Gumiya spotted the curry at the coffee table. "Is that your curry?" he said while pointing it.

"Oh, yup. You… Don't have to taste it, though. If Len said it was bad, then it must be really bad. We could just make another dish."

"That's okay. I need to know how well do you cook so I know what to teach you." He sat on the floor, next to the coffee table.

I closed my eyes as he took a spoon of my curry, afraid of his reaction.

After a few seconds, I opened my eyes. I saw Gumiya frowning.

"Um… This is actually good, it just needed a little spice and the carrot is a little bit hard. You need to cook the carrot much longer and the meat is actually good." He said.

"Oh, um… Thanks?"

"Now, Len took very long time to take a bath. I think we have enough time to make another dish, or you would like to make a better curry?"

"Um… I think I still have leftovers so let's just cook curry, I really want to perfect my work on this dish."

"Right. Let's move on then." Gumiya stood up and went to the kitchen.

Before I went to the kitchen, I quickly took a seat on the floor and took a little bit a spoon of my curry.

It tastes…

THE WORST!

I threw my hands everywhere, trying to find a glass of water, but didn't find any. I ran into the kitchen and opened every single cupboard on the kitchen to find a glass, but failed to find one.

"Um… What are you looking for?" Melochin asked.

I gestured myself drinking something.

"Oh… It's right here." He opened a high cupboard and gave me a glass. I quickly fill it with water in it and gulped them.

That was the worst meal ever.

I wonder how Gumiya stayed calm after eating my dish of junk?

Suddenly, Gumiya laughed.

"What?" I asked in confusion.

"You should've seen your face when you search for a glass of water there." He said.

"Shut up, I didn't know my meal is THAT bad, because you did say it's not bad."

"Oh, so I guess it's my fault? I'm sorry then." He said with a giggle.

What is with this person…

"Anyway, let's prepare the ingredients. I'll let you handle the meat, since the meat that you've cooked was pretty good. And then, I'll need you to chop off the carrot." Gumiya started to boss.

I nodded and started to slice the meat. When I was done, I grabbed the carrot and started chopping it.

"Oh! You might want to chop it like this." Gumiya, who was behind me, corrected the position of the carrot and my hand, making it felt like he was embracing me.

I blushed. He's not trying to flirt, right?
