Hanamaru #154: The Charm of Deliciousness
Hanamaru
*Munch* *Munch* *Munch* Mmhmhm, this shaved ice is so tasty, zura.
Umi
…
Hanamaru
The ice is so soft, it just melts in your mouth like cotton candy, and the fruit is so juicy, sweet, and tart it just fills your mouth with fruity goodness…
Umi
*Whimper* You really do have a way with words, Hanamaru. I can practically taste it myself just looking at you. I… I should've…!
Hanamaru
U-Umi! I'm so sorry. You could've been first place, but I wound up winning despite being last the whole time…
Umi
Oh, Hanamaru… No, I shouldn't be doing this. Regardless of how it happened, the truth still stands that you came in first. You earned that shaved ice.
Umi
So don't pay me any mind. I may not be able to eat it this time, but I'll make do with enjoying it with my eyes.
Hanamaru
Oh, Umi! You got it, zura. I'll be sure to eat enough for both of us, zura!
Hanamaru
*Munch* *Munch* *Munch* Ack! Brain freeze! But it's still yummy. *Giggle*
Umi
*Whine* No, I can't stand it after all! I just can't shake this feeling of regret! It's because of this weakness of mine that I can't–
Hanamaru
Take this!
Umi
Mmph?! *Munch* *Munch*
Hanamaru
How is it?
Umi
It's good… It tastes so good! How could one spoonful bring about so much joy?! So this is the power of super-loaded shaved ice, limited to ten servings a day…
Hanamaru
I'm glad you liked it! Good food really is best when shared, zura.
Umi
Hanamaru! Thank you so much. You are too kind to offer a spoonful of your precious shaved ice to me after I squandered my opportunity.
Hanamaru
Not at all, zura. I just wanted to share this deliciousness with you, Umi.
Hanamaru
*Munch* Mm! This shaved ice tastes even better after seeing you smile, zura! *Munch* *Munch*
Umi
H-Hanamaru? Might I sample the effects of my smile on it for myself?
Hanamaru
All done, zura!
Umi
What? You've already finished it?! But… I thought you just said that delicious foods are meant to be shared! Hanamaru!
Hanamaru
Well, tasty foods can also cause people to lose sight of themselves… That's also a universal truth, zura.
