Why so grumpy, papa

Don't you just love when they abandon their kid and get a new family?

 

[riflow]

Thats true trust when a kid shares their food with you.

The dad is still on my shit list rn, his step mum clearly tried her best, baby bro obviously isn't at fault.

Thanks for the translation btw

(also i really hope someone thinks to photo copy/scan the recipe book... Theres no reason you cant scan all the pages, make some of the recipes and take photos of them, and use an online store or print shop to print out a few copies for family to share and leave the original with hiro.)

Just to clarify, did the mum pass away? Forgive my ignorance if it already said so, I can't seem to remember.

Thanks for the chapter!

Yeah, his mum passed away when he was in grade school. See Chapter 11 here.

Edit: Also Chapter 13 here.

If they get married I want him to adopt her last name. His father was horrible.

If I recall correctly MC left the house to not get in thier new family way as opposed to being kicked out.

Whew. Well... I think however things work out from here, maybe he'll be able to have a relationship with his little brother now. And his stepmom seems very sweet- maybe she wasn't super equipped to step into a parental relationship with him right away, but. Well. Family stuff is complicated.

I'm glad he didn't have to go alone.

 

[isaperv]

Such a sweet chapter.

 

[SpudWumper]

what a sweet gesture from hiro! letting her keep the recipe book

thanks for the tl

 

[TheMerDragon]

A new rival approches

Going to meet his parents before the... future marriage

Appreciate the help in clarifying. Cheers!

When so many mangas depict parents to be shit like this its amazing their government is clueless on why their birth rates are the lowest in the world

If I recall correctly MC left the house to not get in thier new family way as opposed to being kicked out.

And that was because...? The father was frequently absent and never tried to ease him to the new family and it seems the father wasn't very present after her death. And seeing they only had another child after he left, it makes the MC feel more left out.

It isn't that uncommon to start living separately after high school graduation, either in the dorm at the uni or renting with friends to split the cost and working full/part-time.

What I'm saying, the dude stayed at home till graduation and could have still moved out even with caring parents (most of my friends did so tbh). There can be many reasons for that.

Okay, from the story so far Hiro father Akira was hard working, he was home late at night and Hiro had only connection with his mother.

After Akemi died, Hiro was basically left out alone and Akira remarried, his stepmom was more involved in relationship with Akira rather than also with Hiro, hardly cooked even so Hiro still felt detached from new family and after graduation left the house.

Ayame found Hiro mother Akemi cooking book and finally learned how to cook, which naturally also helped her be closer to Aoi obviously.

Guess that spirit of Akemi resting in her cooking book made her reconnect with people after she died, Hiro seems to accept Ayame as he allowed her to keep the book so she can add her own recipes to it while raising Aoi, passing down the torch.

Personally wouldn't find Ayame fully redeeming, marrying and accepting the child from previous marriage is as much important as the person you married, thought she changed for the better.

Guess it's time for the Akira to ask for forgiveness as he neglected Hiro during his childhood and after Akemi died, work is important but also family.

Thanks for the scanlation!
