Draft Recycling Factory Short-Short: 'Just Get Vitamin D Anyway'

Even though it's not rare these days to find people who only consume organic or natural products, my grandmother was like a pioneer of that lifestyle, and she had very strong opinions about ingredients and medicine since way back.

Ever since my grandmother heard on the radio or somewhere that 'Vitamin D is the only vitamin the body can produce on its own,' it became a rule in our house that if you're in trouble, just get Vitamin D no matter what.

Since she said Vitamin D is abundant in mushrooms and fish, we ended up having grilled fish and mushroom miso soup almost every day.

When I asked, 'What's for a snack today?', one out of every three days it would be a Vitamin D tablet instead of candy.

If I got hurt, I would be told, 'Put some Vitamin D on it!'

When I was little and failed my kindergarten entrance exam, my mother was apparently scolded severely by my grandmother, who said, 'It's because you didn't give him enough Vitamin D.' My mother still holds a grudge about that to this day.

Also, my grandmother, who mistakenly believed that Lipovitan D was packed with Vitamin D, passed away last year without ever realizing her mistake.

I've grown into a fine adult now, and I've found someone I love, just like anyone else.

After dating for two years, I finally went to her parents' house the other day to greet them.

I was nervous as I was shown into the living room, and the tea they served was super sour, filled with plenty of lemon slices!

Looking closely, maybe because he was nervous too, my father-in-law-to-be was crunching away on Vitamin C supplements!

'Hahaha! I'm so relieved to see such a wonderful young man! Thank you for taking such good care of my daughter.'

'What are you talking about?'

Dinner was lemon rice with broccoli, bell peppers, and a colorful salad!!

Trembling (from the sourness), I whispered to her and asked.

"Could it be that your house is, anyway, Vitamin...?"

"It's C!"

I am participating in Factory Manager Snow Honda's #DraftRecyclingFactory.

This is a short-short story I wrote titled 'Anyway, Vitamin D' based on a draft by Torafugu-ko.

Thank you very much, Torafugu-ko!

There are only a few drafts left that haven't been recycled yet! What an amazing project. There are so many interesting works lined up, so please give them a read😊
Snow-san, thank you so much!

I've been introducing articles every day on my own in the morning Ohatsubu race😊

Here is what I introduced today.

Maru-san, thank you as always for your wonderful insights😊

And one more thing. Nii-ni-san has beautifully colored my work, so I'd like to introduce that as well.
