Wellll, to be honest, I eat the instant kind plenty . . . I can't really cook, y'know? I'm always ordering out or getting something instant I can make easy! Or goin' out like this, but I hate going out on my own, so I only do this kinda thing if I've got a date. Friend-date, any kinda date! Sometimes you forget how good the real thing is if you eat too much of the instant stuff, right? . . . Not that I don't like the instant stuff too.

Any time you got room in your busy schedule for me, I'll come eat ramen or anything else you want, Rise-chan!
