When Satoru got home from school, he's a little worried about next week because he doesn't know how to cook. He was afraid that he was forced to do it thanks to Kyon and his friends. He's also concerned that Haruhi is now the judge of next week's competition. Without hestitation, Satoru had no choice, but to get help from his mom.
" Mom, I need your help!" Satoru said. Satoru's mom looked at him.
" What is it?" said Satoru's mom. Then Satoru told his mom about next week. " You're being forced to compete in a cooking contest?! Ugh! That Kyon! Why is he always forcing you to do this? Have you tell you can't?" asked Satoru's mom.
" I tried! But he wouldn't listen to me and forced me to do it!" Satoru said looking more worried. " And what's worst about it is that he forced Haruhi to be the judge!" Satoru said. Satoru's mom facepalmed.
" I swear he never stops..." Satoru's mom said to herself. " Well what does he want you to make?" Satoru's mom asked. Then Satoru gives his mom the answer. " Ramen? You have to make Ramen?" said Satoru's mom. Satoru nodded.
" And it has to be from scratch!" Satoru said looking even MORE worried. Satoru's mom realizes that her son's in a pickle now. But unfortunately, she has no choice, but to teach him.
" Okay, but it's not gonna be easy. It's gonna require patience and perfection!" Satoru's mom said.
" That's what I was afraid you say." Satoru said looking more nervous. At the kitchen, Satoru's mom taught him how to Ramen from scratch. Satoru did it like 5 times until he got it right.
" Perfect! I think you're gonna win this competition!" said Satoru's mom being positive.
" Hope I don't choke this time." Satoru said looking nervous. Then Satoru's dad tried to figure what's going on.
" What's going on?" asked Satoru's dad.
" Satoru's friend, Kyon forced him to compete in a cooking contest. They said it has to be a ramen made for scratch!" said Satoru's mom. Satoru's dad now looks worried. " Which, one question: Why is he forcing you to do it?" Satoru's mom asked.
" He said I need to improve my cooking skills than just using a microwave and eating fast food. That's why I was forced to do it!" Satoru said. Satoru's parents looked at each other.
" Well I'm sure it's not that bad! I mean, Kyon was right. You need to cook for yourself if you're ever going to move out on your own." Satoru's dad said. Satoru was afraid his father might said that. But Satoru's mom comforts him.
" Your father's right, sweetie. You can't stick to fast food forever. I mean, yeah, it's me and your father's fault we got you hooked on fast food. And we need to stop doing that! That's why you need to cook your meals." Satoru's mom said. Satoru thought for minute, trying not to be stubborn and selfish...and accept his parent's words.
" Okay. I'll do my best!" Satoru said being positive. He had to be prepare for next week!
