Dinner with Aoko
"Wow, okaasan," Kaito praised one night, "This is really, really good... Definitely a contender for the ongoing 'Best Meal Cooked by Okaasan' competition!"
Aoko, tonight's dinner guest at the Kurobs household, just chuckled quietly while her classmate continued to speak in awe of the main course. Little does he know, Aoko thought, That I was the one to pick tonight's main dish! As Kaito had not yet developed the ability to read the minds of his evil, revenge-seeking classmates, he did not slow in his shoveling of food even though Aoko could not stop her giggles.
The girl realized that even though he could be the sort of complete pervert who has no qualms with flipping her skirt while in school, Kaito was the type of boy who wouldn't showcase any manners less than perfect in front of his own mother. Aoko would not allow this to ruin her revenge, though; she'd just have to ask the question for the magician.
"Hey, Kuroba-san, I've never tasted anything quite like this before. Would you mind terribly to give me the recipe? I think otousan would love to have it sometime!"
Kaito's mother, well aware of the revenge, began to list the ingredients for the girl, with Kaito paying little attention to the conversation. That is, until his mother revealed the final ingredient.
"Then, you beat the mix until it's well-blended and use a little bit of it to top each piece of salmon," Mrs. Kuroba instructed.
"WHAT!?" Kaito yelped, immediately leaping away from the dinner table and toward the bathroom.
"Wow!" Aoko exclaimed. "He took that even harder than I could've hoped for!"
"He sure did." Mrs. Kuroba chuckled along with Aoko.
Meanwhile, Kaito remained in the bathroom, severely regretting his guiding principle to avoid hurting anyone.
