Chocolate Orange
One year, Naru goes back to England for Christmas to spend time with his parents. Jokingly, Mai asks him to bring back gifts. And to her surprise, when he returns to Japan, he does have something for her.
“Yes.” He puts a Chocolate Orange on his desk.
Mai stares at the packaging. “Is that…chocolate?”
“Yes. A Chocolate Orange.”
“…I don’t know what that is, but it sounds yummy! Thanks, Naru!!” She takes it and cheerfully leaves his office.
Naru sighs at how easily pleased she is and gets back to work.
But five minutes later, Mai comes back. “Naruuuu, how do I eat this?” In her hands, she has the Chocolate Orange partially unwrapped, with the pieces still all stuck together.
He sighs. “Give it here.”
Mai hands it over. Naru wraps it back up. Then slams it on his desk.
“EEP!” Mai jumps in surprise.
“There.” He hands it back to her, cool as a cucumber.
“Th-Thanks…?” Flustered and confused, Mai leaves his office with the Chocolate Orange, wondering if something bad happened in his past involving chocolate to provoke such a violent reaction.
