[04:41] Yuri
    Why're you looking up something like that?
[04:44] Yuri
    Whoa! So big!
[04:46] Saku
    These are Maine Coon cats.
[04:48] Saku
    Actually, I've been taking care of a cat myself.
[04:50] Saku
    I was just wondering how
    big they normally get.
[04:56] Yuri
    Senpai, that's pretty careless of you.
[04:58] Saku
    Huh? Wh-What do you mean?!
[05:01] Yuri
    They say if you get
    a pet while living alone,
[05:03] Yuri
    you ruin your chances at marriage!

    Let me know if taking care
    of your cat is too much for you.
[05:27] Yuri
    I bet my parents will
    take it in if I ask them.
[05:30] Saku
    Oh. Thanks a lot.
[05:37] Saku
    Now, time for lunch...
[05:57] Saku; Internal
    If taking care of my cat
    is too much for me, huh?
[06:05] Saku; Internal
    I guess it could be...
[06:11] Saku
    I'm home!
[06:13] Saku
    Yukichi? Hey, Yukichi!
[06:25] Saku; Internal
    Well, maybe if my cat was a normal cat.
[06:34] Saku
    Jeez!
[06:36] Saku
    You're cleaning in the dark again!
[06:38] Saku
    I keep telling you to do it

    They're for tomorrow's lunch?
[08:44] Saku
    I see. I guess it can't be helped.
[08:47] Saku
    They look so good, but I'll
     have to wait until tomorrow.
[08:51] Saku
    I see. They're for lunch...
[08:56] Saku
    Huh? You'll make me something else?

    I'll definitely have to work overtime again.

    Can't we just give all these progress

    Today, I'd like to show you a recipe I recommend
    for dealing with exhaustion and stress!

    It's a stamina curry sauté of sliced
    beef and summer vegetables!
[12:21] Empress
    Everyone, please be ready to jot it down!
[12:23] Empress
    Now, let me show you the ingredients
    and how to make it!
[12:27] Empress
    First, peel the tomatoes by parboiling them.
    Then cut them into wedges.
[12:30] Empress
    Cut the bell pepper vertically into strips.
[12:34] Empress
    Then, heat olive oil in a frying pan over low heat and add the garlic.
[12:38] Empress
    Spice lovers can also add takanotsume peppers.
[12:42] Empress
    Once the garlic becomes aromatic,
    add the beef and bell peppers.
[12:45] Empress
    Season with salt and pepper.
[12:47] Empress
    After the meat browns,
    add one teaspoon of wine vinegar.
[12:51] Empress
    Boil out the alcohol and add
    the tomatoes to sauté them quickly.
[12:54] Empress
    Add one tablespoon of curry powder,
[12:56] Empress
    and finish it off with
    a sprinkle of minced parsley.
[12:59] Empress
    Please give this recipe a try!

    Yuri-chan gave this to me, but...

    make your own lunches yourself!
SIGN    Make your own lunches yourself~ (LOL)

[16:35] Glasses Manager
    That's true.
[16:36] Female Employee 1
    That's the least you can do!
[16:38] Male Employee 1
    Maybe I should try making
    my own lunches, too.
[16:40] Saku
    No! I-I-I really can't cook at all!
[16:42] Yuri
    What are you talking about?
    You're plenty good at it!
[16:43] Female Employee 1
    If you consider yourself a bad cook,
    the rest of us are completely worthless.

    No, no, no, no...
[16:47] Yuri
    So true! So true!
[16:49] Saku
    I mean, it was my cat that...

    Huh? What are you saying?
[16:57] Female Employee 1
    Huh? Is Fukuzawa-san an oddball type?
[17:02] Saku
    I-I baked them!
[17:04] Yuri
    Huh? Did you spike them with something?
[17:07] Saku
    I looked up the recipe online...
[17:08] Yuri
    Huh?!
[17:10] Saku; Internal
    I've become such a blatant liar!
[17:12] Saku; Internal
    I'm sorry, Yukichi!
[17:15] Saku; Internal
    I mean, something like that's
    normally impossible.
[17:18] Saku; Internal
    A cat shouldn't be able to do
    all the housework for me.
[17:21] Saku; Internal
    Why didn't I think of that until now?
[17:24] Saku
    Okay!
[17:25] Saku; Internal
    I'll just keep quiet about Yukichi.

    Is your cat doing well?

    Huh? How did you know about my cat, Chief?

    The calcium necessary for health
