Everything began with me oversleeping.
Oh no!
Mikan Gives Up On Being Human?
Give me my lunch!
What about breakfast?
I don't have time to eat.
You need to eat, how will you wait till lunch if you go without breakfast?
It's fine, just give me my lunch quick.
Come on, dear.
Quick!
Tada.
It's rolled omelet and meatballs.
Alright I get it, give it to me.
I'll be off now.
I want to eat that.
I'm hungry.
What Goguryeo did
in the year 313
to oust the Lelang Commandery....
I can't take it anymore.
My stomach...
I should try and put some strength into my abs.
Oh no, how can I not make that noise?
Maybe if I press down on my stomach like this?
That's making even more noise.
Then how about I stretch out
my stomach like this
and twist like this.
What was that?
What do I do?
I can't stop it.
I smell something good.
World History
Shh.
What?
Give me just one bite.
Please.
Can't be helped.
Hey!
Alright.
Thank you.
Hey!
You two, what are you doing?
Pay attention!
Oh my gosh!
Yay, lunchtime.
Lunch pack, lunch pack.
How wonderful.
Huh?
Thank you for the food.
What is this?
Huh? It's really gone?
Tell me I'm dreaming.
Mikan, what's wrong?
My chopsticks...
You don't have your chopsticks?
No.
They might have some in the teacher's room.
That's right.
I went there to borrow some last time and...
It's you again?
I am not your mother.
Here, this is the last time I'm lending you these.
I can't borrow chopsticks there anymore.
I suppose you're right.
Then you can borrow mine.
After I quickly eat my lunch.
One of us who finishes first can lend her their chopsticks.
Okay.
Sorry.
You can take your time.
That looks tasty.
I want to hurry up and eat.
Why does Mother keep forgetting the chopsticks.
Wait.
This morning I'm pretty sure...
It's rolled omelet and meat balls.
Alright I get it, give it to me.
I'm off.
It was me, wasn't it.
To think that this lunch in front of me
feels so far away because I have no chopsticks..
Isn't there some other way?
A straw?
[Has tried it before] They bend too easily.
This might work.
Look at her...
No.
I can't do this, no matter how hungry I am.
I want to eat.
I want to eat so bad.
I want to eat.
It's good.
I'm happy.
Uh oh.
She's eating more and more with her hand.
Oh no,
now that I've tasted the side dishes, I want to eat the rice too.
Rice...
I want to eat the rice.
Rice.
If I were a dog,
I wouldn't need chopsticks.
A cat would be okay too.
Oh, or even an elephant.
An elephant uses its nose...
Mikan, Mikan!
Huh?
Here, use mine!
Use mine too.
Thanks.
Thank you so much, both of you.
Thank you for the food.
A bit longer and I might have given up on being human.
But it looks like
you've done quite a bit of that already.
