My Wife in The Web Game is a Popular Idol

25 - It's love, isn't it?

"Kazuto-kun. I'm going to prepare the lunch now, so just relax in the living room, kay." (Rinka)

"Okay." (Kazuto)

I'm led to the living room, and Rinka urges me to sit on the couch.

This is the second time I've come to this house.

The whole room smells so good.

"You can turn on the TV if you want." (Rinka)

Rinka, standing in the kitchen, tells me so.

She has her hair in a ponytail and is wearing an apron, just like before.

What a pretty precious sight, there.

"......For now, let's turn on the TV." (Kazuto)

I pick up the remote control on the table in front of me and turn on the TV.

A daytime variety show is on.

Moreover, the show is featuring idols, and there is a conversation going on about Star☆Mines.

The idol group that keeps evolving and progressing with the tremendous energy of Kurumizaka-san as its center...... and so on.

There's also an evaluation of Mizuki Rinka as a girl who can be called a diva.

"After all, they are amazing." (Kazuto)

Can you believe it?

I play online games with these girls every days off, you know?

And even now, now I'm coming over to Rinka's house.

"......?" (Kazuto)

I pick my smartphone up as I receive a call from Kurumizaka-san.

"Hello, Kurumizaka-san?" (Kazuto)

"Ah, Did you decide to have lunch at Rin-chan's house?" (Nana)

"Yeah. What are you going to do for lunch, Kurumizaka-san?" (Kazuto)

"What should I do, yes........ I'd like to eat Rin-chan's home-cooked food too, so can you somehow deliver it to me?" (Nana)

"Of course I can't......." (Kazuto)

She didn't say it in a joking tone.

But rather, in a serious one.

"I'm hungry, .......Right now, I'm looking up at Rin-chan's room from behind a telephone pole with binoculars." (Nana)

"Are you dressed all in black? You'd better stop it, because you will definitely get reported." (Kazuto)

It's been almost a month since I've known Kurumizaka-san for whatever reason.

I've come to understand her to some extent.

It's not that she's ruining her image on TV, but she's going in a bit of a weird direction.

For better or worse, she's energetic and foolhardy.

"I'm gonna the convenience store to get some Anpan and milk!" (Nana)

"You should go home, really......." (Kazuto)

"Then, See yaa~!" (Nana)

She ends the talk with an unnecessarily cheerful voice and hangs up the call.

......Well, she seems like a good match for the cool type of Rinka.

A few minutes later, Rinka calls me for lunch.

I get up from the couch and take a seat at the dining room table.

When I first look at the table, I find that a bowl of mouthwatering fried rice has been prepared.

It has a savory smell that makes my stomach growl.

Carefully chopped green onions and boiled pork were mixed in, and the overall color of the dish, including the rice, is wonderful.

If it's only for its appearance, it'll be on par with what is served in restaurants.

"This is amazing, Rinka. Absolutely this will be so delicious." (Kazuto)

"Of course. I've loved cooking since I was a kid, so I'm pretty confident in my abilities." (Rinka)

Rinka says it without any modesty.

This dignified behavior is something only a cool idol can do.

Suddenly, Rinka sits down next to me with her own bowl of fried rice.

She seems to want to eat next to me.

"Let's eat, Kazuto-kun." (Rinka)

"Y-yeah....... Let's dig in." (Kazuto)

After putting my hands together, I take the prepared spoon in my right hand and scoop up a bite of the dome-shaped fried rice.

Bring it to my mouth and chew.......

"So delicious......!" (Kazuto)

I'm not a gourmet food critic, so I can't describe exactly how really delicious it is.

It's just dαmn so delicious.

That's all I can say.

This's the first time I have eaten a girl's home cooking.

Even if it was burnt to char, I'll have definitely enjoyed it.

"I'm glad. It seems to have suited your palate." (Rinka)

"It's really delicious. It's the best fried rice I've ever had." (Kazuto)

"Fufu....... Actually, I've put something special in that fried rice." (Rinka)

"...... something special?" (Kazuto)

I stop the spoon and look at Rinka's face.

For some reason, she has a suspicious smile on her face and her eyes were glowing.

"Yup, something special. Fufu." (Rinka)

"......" (Kazuto)

...... Is this fried rice okay to eat?

I guess it's just a matter of feeling, but I suddenly feel like my stomach is starting to feel sick.

N-no, no.

There's nothing weird in it.

Probably I just want her to say something cute like "it's a love~"!

That must be it!

No, please let it be true!

"What's wrong, Kazuto-kun? Aren't you going to eat?" (Rinka)

"Ah, yeah......." (Kazuto)

"I'll give you mine if you want." (Rinka)

"I can't let you do that. Rinka has to eat well too." (Kazuto)

"I don't mind. I'm happy just to see you eating deliciously, Kazuto-kun........" (Rinka)

Rinka smiles, looking truly happy.

I have no choice but to eat it.

I shake off the bad premonition that is sticking in my brain and continue to bring Rinka's special fried rice to my mouth.
