Chapter 3 - Chapter 3- Eating Soba

With Momo's almost out of this world culinary skills, the first plan in conquering Todoroki's affection is a failure.

"What am I going to do now? The probability of Shoto liking me had decreased with this fatal mistake." cried Momo.

"That's right, your cooking skills is humanly impossible." replied Izuku, just floating around aimlessly inside the bathroom.

"Please don't mock me anymore Izuku-kun."

"Alright fine, let's proceed to plan B then." suggested Izuku.

"What's on your mind Izuku-kun?" asked Momo.

"Now, you have to attack on his likes and interests." said Izuku.

For their second plan, Izuku instructed Momo to take the initiative to explore Shoto's likes and interests.

"So, what does that boy likes or his hobbies?" asked Izuku, trying ti get information.

"There's really not much I know about Todoroki since he's the quiet type."

Suddenly something came to Momo's mind.

"Oh wait! I know, he likes soba noodles. It's his favorite food I heard." called out Momo.

"Then we'll go with that." answered Izuku.

It would seem that the plan and situation is in Momo's favor as there's actually a new soba shop opened nearby their school so this is a perfect opportunity.

After the afternoon class is over, Momo tried and talk to Todoroki before he can go home. She then walked towards Shoto's seat.

"Uhm, Todoroki?" queried Momo.

"What is is Yaoyorozu?" replied Shoto, sorting out his bag on his desk.

"There's a oba shop that opened near here and I heard they make really good sobas. I heard you like soba so I just want to ask, will you accompany me to eat there? It's my treat." asked Momo quite nervous.

Todoroki went wide eyed by what Momo had just said. It's true that he really likes soba, it's his most favorite food. There's no reason for him to decline such a very good offer so he agreed.

"Alright." replied Shoto, looking quite excited for the soba shop they are about to go to.

The both of them then exited their classroomand went ahead to to go to the said shop.

Momo and Shoto walked side by side with only a few distance away from each other. Momo's face was flustered by this situation.

'Kya! It's like we're a couple walking home together from school.' thought Momo.

Of course, it's not only Momo who felt this way. Todoroki also has a shade of red on his cheeks from this situation, although Momo didn't notice it due to her fantasizing her mind out as they walk.

Finally after a while of walking, the two of them finally arrived at the supposed shop. The shop is new of course with a very homely feel to it.

They went inside and saw quite a number of people eating inside the shop, mostly of them are couples/lovers.

This made the situation even more tense for both Momo and Shoto. They then looked for an empty table to sit into.

"L-let's order now shall we?" suggested Momo.

Shoto just nodded in agreement.

Just in time, a waiter walked towards them and gave the both of them a card with different variety of selection of sobas to choose from.

Shoto gladly took the card and began browsing his way towards them to pick his order.

Momo also took the card on the waiter's hand. Incidentaly, she touched the waiter's hand while taking the card. It's so cold, almost like touching ice.

When Momo looked at the waiter's face, her pupils dilated upon seeing a very familiar face. It was none other than the toilet bound spirit, Izuku-kun.

Izuku signaled Momo to keep quiet. "Sshhh."

Momo nodded and just changed her attention to the selection card.

After a while of picking, the both of them had their orders.

Both Shoto and Momo selected their orders and gave it to the waiter.

"I'll have your order in a few moments." said the waiter as he left both of them alone.

Momo was still trapped in the thought of what Izuku is doing here.

'What's Izuku-kun doing here? He's a ghost right?" brainstormed Momo in her mind.

She was so fixated in her thought that she almost forgot Todoroki was with her. Momo was cancelled back on her thought when Shoto called out to her.

"Yaoyorozu?" called Shoto.

"Y-yes?"

"Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Momo awkwardly laughed.

Their order came brought out by the waiter. The both of them then began eating their sobas.

"Wow, this is so good!" exclaimed Shoto in a suppressed manner, happily eating his soba.

Although Momo isn't really a soba enthusiast, she must say it is very delicious.

The plan seems to be working. Izuku just looked at the both of them at the corner of the shop happily chatting while eating.
