All right so since this is from the novel I'll just post this here. >_> Some more translations from Good Haro, she posted them on 4chan.
Spoiler:
The atmosphere in the general ward was a little different from Dr. Sanetoshi's exam room and Himari's private room. For a place performing cutting-edge medical treatments, the decor was awfully antiquated––like something out of a fairytale. Kanba and I still weren't used to it. But, Himari seemed pleased that everything was to her tastes, and the two boys helping Dr. Sanetoshi seemed reliable and kind even though there was something off about them that I couldn't quite put my finger on.
We came up with a scheme to make Takoyaki in Himari's room so those two wouldn't notice.
"Isn't the smell gonna give us away?" I peered hesitantly out of the room and Kanba shot me a look. He'd already mixed the ingredients and started cooking the Takoyaki––he's better at this than I give him credit.
We had the Takoyaki cooker and ingredients spread about the floor and smoke was pouring out the window, let alone the smell. If someone saw it there's nothing we could say to cover it up.
"It really does smell wonderful!" Himari said admiringly
That's not really what I'd meant. But, I'm just glad that Himari's smiling. The penguins were all drooling as they stared at the takoyaki cooker.
"Shoma's dashi really makes it. You can use octopus or cheese even." Kanba quickly poked a takoyaki with a skewer.
"Ooh, they're coming along nicely." Himari's eyes glittered.
"Alright, behold!" Kanba made a stupid pose, rolling up his sleeves and then grabbing a skewer and quickly flipping a takoyaki, making it perfectly round.
"Wow Kan! You're really good at flipping them!" Himari clapped. Penguin Three copied her.
"It's nothing. This and Okonomiyaki are the only things I'm better at than Shoma." Kanba said with pride and then looked over at me. "Shoma, [you keep look out and] tell us if someone's coming. I don't want anyone to get mad at us."
"Man, who crowned you king of takoyaki-flipping. I'm pretty good at it too, you know." The hall outside Himari's room didn't even seem like it was part of the same building. It wasn't really very busy today, but I didn't think there was any way the smell and the smoke could go unnoticed.
"Himari, they're hot so be careful." The way Kanba deftly flipped the takoyaki out onto plates, he almost looked like a jolly food-stall keeper.
Himari put on sauce and aonori and then piled the plate high with bonito flakes. With a "let's eat!" she blew on them several times and then scarfed them.
"They're hot but delicious. Takoyaki really is best when eaten with family." Himari said as she started feeding the penguins takoyaki off her plate. The penguins waited in a line with their mouths open and stuffed their faces like plump little baby birds.
"We thought you were getting tired of hospital food, so eat up." Kanba smiled, satisfied.
"Hey, leave some for me." I said, just to be sure, turning back from the door where I was keeping watch on the hallway.
"Mmm, these are delicious." Kanba said like he couldn't hear me as he ate a takoyaki from my plate while preparing to make a second batch.
"Kanba!"{uh oh, eating Shoma's food=heads will roll}
