[#Weekly Short-Short Note Secret Theme: A Little Shallot on the Wall] Kindness

Suzumura-san was using the wall of a bento box, and I thought 😳💡
There are all kinds of walls, aren't there? 😳💡
Viva 🙌 Suzumura-san 🙌

The secret theme is "A little shallot on the wall."

🏠🏠🏠

"Eat plenty."
"That's right. Don't be shy."

She and her mother smiled as they offered me the food. Today, I was visiting her home to ask for her hand in marriage. The conversation had gone smoothly, and it was time for dinner.

My relief was short-lived, however, as a new tension struck me. On the magnificent table filled with homemade dishes, there was also a plate of pickled shallots.

"Sh... shallots, I see."
I gulped. I absolutely hate shallots.

"Oh! Do you like shallots? I'm so glad!"
"It's a traditional flavor passed down through generations."
"O-oh, is that so... ha ha ha."

If I could just overcome this wall of shallots, my relationship with her parents would be secure. As I tried to summon the courage to just eat a few shallots,

"Now, now, you two. It's hard to eat like that, isn't it?"
Father-in-law! You understood how I felt!

As I turned around in joy, my father-in-law smiled and tossed a shallot into my mouth.

"I didn't know you liked them that much."
"To faint from being so moved by shallots..."
"As expected of our traditional flavor."
