Zoku Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei 05
So the monk
couldn’t help but open his mouth.
“How is it?”
“Are you a little warmer?”
Like that.
It’s said that the monk suddenly realized what he was doing and regretted it.
“As one who expected thanks in return
for giving someone a favor, I’m disgraceful human being!”
“I was shamelessly showing off an act of kindness!”
Even if something looks like an action done for someone else,
humans in the end want to show off their act of kindness.
You are young, but you have already taken steps in realizing that.
That couldn’t be!
I’m still a long way away!
Teacher!
I baked some cookies. Please have some.
Tasty, right?
I was careful with the ingredients. I used Hokkaido mountain butter
and ordered the nuts from Spain.
Because I took so much care with the ingredients and in making them with my hands,
the texture when you chew on it is the best!
Although it did take that much effort and time…
And this wrapping paper and ribbon…
Showing off an act of kindness…
Just now, with a small voice, you said, “showing off an act of kindness,” right?
No,
how could I have…
I worked so hard to make them!
It’s okay to at least say thank you, isn’t it?
That’s showing off your act of kindness.
You expected a thank you from me as a reward.
That’s not an action of goodwill. It’s a demand.
It’s thank you theft.
Thank you theft…
So mean!
I ended up saying what I was thinking again.
