Girl Reading While He Cooks in the Kitchen

character: kirigaya_suguha. A black-haired teenage girl with short hair and a green hairclip, wearing a white tank top and denim hot pants that reveal her long legs, sitting at a kitchen table fanning herself with a magazine on a hot summer day, her skin glistening with a light sheen of sweat from the heat. Her boyfriend [ref: 752867242482789185]—a young man with tousled black hair and gray eyes wearing a dark hoodie with the sleeves rolled up—stands at the stove cooking a pot of meat and potatoes, secretly dropping a throat lozenge into the simmering broth as a hidden flavor enhancer. Bright summer sunlight streaming through the kitchen window, cicadas chirping outside, a casual and intimate domestic atmosphere with Suguha watching him cook with an amused and affectionate smile despite the sweltering heat.
