Author's Note: Tsurugi Yuuichi has recovered from the surgery in this story.
It is September 11, 6:00 PM in the Tsurugis' household. Dinner is being served already. "Today I stir-fried a big plate of spinach. You all have to eat a little more." Tsurugi's mother said as she put down a big plate filled with stir-fried spinach on the dining table. "Okaa-san, green vegetables are what I hate the most. I only want to eat fish and chicken legs." He said while looking at the spinach.
"You can't do that. Every time you see a green vegetable you won't eat it unless forced to. If you want to be a better soccer player you have to eat all kinds of food." His mother said while wagging her pointer finger. "Different kinds of foods are nutritious in different ways and are good for the body in different ways. You shouldn't be a picky eater." said his brother, Yuuichi. "You don't like to drink milk, and you don't eat apples either."
"But I eat eggs and tofu, and I love to eat cheese. Those things are all nutritious." Looking at his mother, Tsurugi asked, "Grandma is a vegetarian. Does she not get enough nutrition?"
"It's not like that. Being a vegetarian is great. As long as you eat all kinds of vegetables, legumes, and fruits, then it's very good for your health. Now eat up those greens on your plate." She said as she put one whole serving of it on his plate. "You want to be a good soccer player, right?" He could do nothing but nod and eat the contents of his plate.
