Chapter 35 Susan
When aunt Dayana left, I stayed alone with little Charlie.
"Cousin, teach to be so strong!" I smiled at his innocent words and played for a bit with him. I taught him a bit of swordsmanship and tell him so stories. Little Charlie was spellbound by my words and heard carefully.
But after playing with him for around one hour, soone knocked on the door.
"Mrs. Dayana, I’m Sara’s daughter!" A sweet and a bit immature voice ca from outside the door. I signaled little Charlie to wait and went to open the door.
When the door was opened, I was greeted by the image of a beautiful young girl.
The girl was a bit tall, around 1.7 ters, with a slender body and small breasts. She had short black hair and brown eyes and was wearing a simple white dress.
Although the girl could not be considered stunning, she had a kind of humble beauty. When she saw open the door she put on a startled expression before blushing a bit. I could see she was a bit timid.
"You are?" I asked once I finished examining her. The girl panicked a bit hearing my question, but she quickly composed herself. "I-Is Mrs. Dayana at ho? I-I’m Sara’s daughter, the nanny..."
"Oh! Aunt had to leave early today, but she told that soone would be coming to take care of little Charlie."
"Y-Yes, m-mom could no co today s-so she sent instead..." The young girl lowered her head timidly and grabbed the hem of her dress.
"Is it so? I understand. Co inside then."
"E-Excuse ..." The girl lowered her head again and entered with a flustered expression.
I could not help but smile seeing it. It looks like it’s her first ti dealing with a noble so she is a bit nervous.
Shaking my head, I asked to confirm. "Is this your first ti speaking to a noble?"
"Y-Yes, I-I apologize if I did sothing w-wrong."
"Don’t worry." I waved my hand calmly. "It’s not as though I’m going to eat you. Calm down first while I bring little Charlie."
The girl blushed as an apple and nodded repeatedly. I wanted to give her a bite, but I suppressed the impulse and left.
When I brought Charlie the girl was already calr. She looked at with an apologetic expression and bowed slightly.
"I-I’m sorry about before, I was a bit nervous. Mother did not tell anything about a young master."
"I could see it. And please don’t call young master." I answered and then patted Charlie’s shoulder. "He is Charlie, my aunt’s son."
"Y-Yes, mom told about him."
I nodded. "Can I ask, miss, what is your na?"
"S-Susan." She stuttered a little. "I’m 16 this year."
"I see, I’m Claus. Tell , Susan. Is this your first ti taking care of a child?"
Susan put on a hesitant expression before nodding. "I normally take care of my brothers, but it’s my first ti as a nanny."
I frowned once I heard her answer. Susan panicked seeing my expression and put on a flustered expression. "I-Is sothing wrong?"
"Nothing." I smiled wryly to relieve her. "It’s just that I’m not sure if it’s alright to leave Charlie with you."
"D-Don’t worry, young master. Mom explained to everything so I know what to do!"
"Mmm." I deliberately put on a doubting expression. Susan panicked even more and was near tears, but she could only stare at with a pitiful expression. I was smirking inside , but I did not show it on my face.
"Let’s do it. I’ll stay for a while to see how you work and if I see everything is alright, I’ll leave then."
"O-Of course! I don’t mind!" Susan nodded frantically and sighed relieved. I could only smile wryly seeing it.
Actually, Susan was pretty good as a nanny. She not only took good care of little Charlie, but also was pretty good at housework. I could see she was pretty experienced doing it.
I’m not sure if her mother was also like this when she cos, but I have to admit that Susan did not commit any mistakes, despite her unreliable first impression.
She looked at nervously a few tis while doing the housework, but I just smile to relieve her. She then would blush and move her gaze away. It was obvious she was a very innocent young girl.
After a few hours, she finished most of the housework. She then looked at nervously.
"Young master, I’ll cook lunch. Will you eat here?"
"No no, I’m going to visit my grandparents for lunch. Right, I told you not to call young master. Call Claus."
"I’m sorry, young master."
"..."
"C-Claus..." Susan put on a pitiful expression and blushed embarrassed.
I then smiled and kissed her hand. "Well, young lady. I’m going then."
Susan’s face turned completely red. She nodded repeatedly and went to accompany to the door. But at that mont, I created a thread of mana near her feet.
The thread was completely invisible, and it was impossible for a commoner without mana to detect it. Susan continued walking without suspecting anything and "accidentally" tripped down.
"Kya!" Susan scread and grabbed my hand instinctively. I tried to hold her, but I also "tripped down" at that mont and fell while holding her waist.
When Susan opened her eyes, she noticed that she was over .
"S-Sorry!" She instinctively apologized and tried to stand up. But I was holding her waist. Susan looked at with a flustered expression. "Y-Young master?"
I just stared at her in daze. Susan blushed when she noticed my gaze and looked away.
At that mont, I whispered sothing to her ear.
"Beautiful."
Susan turned completely red. Although she had been complinted before, she felt shy knowing that the one that was complinting her was a handso young noble.
Moreover, she had read so books about young nobles falling in love with a servant, where the developnt was sothing like this. She wondered if it was what was happening now.
Seeing her embarrassed expression, I held her waist even tighter and kissed softly her face.
