Author Note: No Ero.
The first day of the part-ti job was several seconds after the interview.
I had currently just left the sweets restraunts staff changing room. Work has already begun.
From the outset, there was no reason to refuse soone introduced by an existing employee. I was employed just from appropriately exchanging so words back and forth.
Yup, thats not bad look.
A womans voice with a calm feeling sounded.
It was the owner of this Sweets Restaurant. I believe her na was Saki or sothing. It helps that I dont have to rember her na as long as I just call her Owner.
She looks to be about 20 from her looks. Apparently she was a company employee who dealed with food, and a woman who possessed a soft atmosphere despite her bundled hair giving of an even more mature impression.
Also, if you could make your face a little softer-
Soft, is it?
Yes, because there tis when you may speak to custors even when working in the back.
I intend to go about as I normally do. Also, I dont want to be talked to custors.
Perhaps thinking that she had no choice, the owner simply sighed without pursuing any further.
Well then, first head to the kitchen, ok?
Yes.
Are the working tis fine?
Its fine. Im with Mai, and the final exams are over for us.
Heeh, no honorifics, huh?
She continued to talk about trifling affairs, probably so as to stall for ti.
When the owner opened the kitchen door, the hustle and bustle which could be heard from the outside quieted a little.
I could confirm that several people were cooking sothing, but with my knowledge I couldnt figure out any more than that.
Sakaki-san, hes the newcor whos starting from today.
I see.
Its fine to have expectations this ti. He was recomnded by that Mai-san, after all.
Id like it if you stopped that sort of thing.
To put it in a single word, the man called Sakaki was a large person. Strictness was transmitted from his expression, but he didnt appear to be the noisy type.
What do you an by this ti?
A kid who joined a little whilte ago scread when it beca busy and up and quit. Also, even though hes like this, Sakaki-san is soone who says things straight out.
He doesnt seem that proficient with words.
See? Ah, but hes good at teaching so listen to him without fear.
Sakaki-san glared this way with eyes like a bear. It seed as though he was evaluating whether or not I could be eaten.
While leaving a little distance between us, I, for the ti being, didnt avert my eyes. How to say, if its atmosphere alone, then it was slightly similar to Reins, even if not completely.
Here.
Ok.
Then, Ill leave the rest to you, okay? Ill be in the office, so please call if you need anything.
Saying just that, she easily relinquished .
While following after Sakaki-san, I vaguely surveyed the kitchen.
So we have an oven, huh?
Were making sweets, after all. First off, take this to the show case area.
Huh, w-w-wuuuut!
It was at such a ti that the voice of an unknown man approached from the side.
Furthermore, it was directed towards .
So the new part-tirs you, is it!? I welco you!
hello.
Who?
Atari, soone you know?
Yes, thats right! Hes the benefactor who helped and Yuri get together. This is the man who changed us who hadnt progressed from childhood friends for ten-odd years!
Atari-kun gladly spoke that while knocking my shoulder.
Did I do such a thing? I dont rember. Was I the type to do sothing like a good deed?
Hm, aah, sorry, sorry. Youd be shocked with this coming out of the blue, huh? Since then, Ive also done a lot of thinking for Yuris sake. Right now Ive quit the soccer club and am currently saving up money for the future.
Heeh, arent you diligent?
Its not sothing to be praised for, ysee! Tell if you need anything, I wanna be of help to you!
I may really not like it here.
Seeing Sakaki-san mutely return to his work was, to so extent, relieving.
For the ti being, lets just do what Im told.
When it neared 3 oclock, it beco crowded like a sweets shop.
Its just, according to what the owner said, the real numbers apparently co after 7 oclock in the evening. This place also served as a restaurant, so there are many custors who co normally for dinner.
Book, is the shortcake from earlier still not ready!?
Im bringing it now!
My task is to just bring the prepared goods to the store, but even so its quite painful.
However, Sakaki-san and Atari-kun are also struggling to work in silence. I dont dislike this atmosphere.
Welco!!
Upon nearing the cash register, Mai and the other clerks loud reception roared.
Its basically my job to shuttle back and forth between the kitchen and the show case area mutliple tis. It helps that its not that necessary to wear a smile, though.
Book, hurry!
Book, urry urry!!!
Book, co co co!
Everyone in the kitchen had co to address as Book before I even noticed it.
Its likely because of Mais influence. Its not sothing to the extent that I should be concerned about, but Im concerned.
The kitchen had beco relatively brutal just from being crowded, and the jeers towards , who was still lacking skills, had inevitably increased.
Hey, Book, move! Ah, Yanagi-san, theres not enough chocolate!
Mai entered the interior of the kitchen. Her seemingly loud voice rung in my ears more than usual.
I inadvertently averted my gaze and ended up looking at Mai.
This restaurants uniform was, as one might expect, popular and certainly cute.
It was, as people say, of the maid uniform-classification. Despite being winter, the frilly skirt was short, possessing a black and white base the as the red ribbon acted as an accent.
Hey, Book! Go on, go go!
Im doing it!
My back was smacked by Atari-kun. As expected from a sports clubs forr mber, he was a jock.
Although I just entered today, I had worked more than the amount of money that I gained. Im glad that I could rest easy without having to unnecessarily put on a smile.
Fufu!
Suddenly, Mai looked at and laughed slightly. When smiling in that outfit, I received yet another impression.
Book, normally the peak ti will pass in just a little bit, so do your best!
Mai tapped my shoulder. Just like that, she returned to the reception with agile movents.
I dont like it. I just cant stomach the fact that that Mai was acting like my senior.
As Mai said, after a while the peak had passed and the kitchens interior had also beco calm.
The ti had passed by 5 oclock unnoticed, and, in just a little bit, Ill be done for today.
Say, Book. Its like this starting from your first day, but are you ok?
My knees are tired.
Mai entered into the kitchen during her free ti. Since she was also helping out for the ti being, they probably dont mind her making so idle chatter to a certain extent.
No, its ok, Mai-san. He doesnt seem reliable from his looks, but hes the type that moves if theres sothing to do.
Atari-sans kind to Book, huh? Even though he was beaten so strictly during work-
No, no, Yanagi-san was worse, he really drove him hard.
The duo looked at Yanagi-san at the sa ti.
Noticing this, Yanagi-san, who had constantly been cooking, unexpectedly turned around.
This guy is better that way.
Certainly, it feels like hell start loafing imdiately, right?
No, Im obviously gonna work.
This Sakaki-san is probably the type of person who would move 100 people if he could. I believe that people who dislike that decided to quit.
I dont really mind, but its quite a fastidious impression.
Hey, Mai! Co back ere!
Ah, Yuri-senpai!
Oh, Book really ca here. Long ti no see.
The woman called Yuri gazed at with great interest.
Even though she said long ti no see, isnt this our first eting?
Yanagi-san, please treat Book hospitably. Hes Atari-kun and my benefactor, after all.
I got it. Rest a bit.
Isnt that a little too sudden?
I wonder if its alright to take a break even though my shift finishes in several tens of minutes. Perhaps its special because todays my first day?
Oh well. Mai, I am also taking a break. Ill guide Book.
Goddiiit.
Yuri beckoned frequently, so I followed her just like that.
Atari-kun constantly waved his hand at , but I wonder what for?
Even so, coincidences really pile up, huh? To be together with Book again-
Yuri smiled widely. She was a lovely woman in her own way, who also possessed attractiveness.
The fact that she was one of our students probably ant that this girl had also been subjected to the Hypnotic Test. Lets think about whether or not this could be used to my convenience.
I only chose this place because it was nearby.
Hmmm, so, are you on good terms with Mai?
Yuri eyes lit up a little. In other words, she wanted to discuss about that topic.
Of course, theres no signs of Mai and myself having such a relationship.
Normal enough that she would introduce to this part-ti job.
Ngh, that so? Well then, why a part-ti job?
I need savings.
If I spoke of giving gifts to others, then Id just end up being asked about who Id be giving them to. Although boring, I settled things with this.
However, without ever making a bored face, Yuri placed her hand to her head and contemplated.
What is the purpose of that? Im curious.
Sorry, after thinking about it, I might be being a bit ddleso.
Its fine. If theres sothing youre concerned about, then itll save if you just say it. Im the type that will be bothered when its not said, see.
Is that so? Then, arent you going to get a girlfriend, Book?
Girlfriend?
As expected of girls, they have an interest in romance, huh?
If Im correct, Yuri and Atari-kun were dating, huh? I wonder if they want to play the role of the busy-bodied old lady?
After all, youre the one who made Atari and myself happy. I was wondering whether or not I could help you out in that sort of area.
Aah.
Shes really being ddleso.
Yuri was likely saying this due to her good intentions. No, certainly, if I had soone who could help out with won, then this would be a battle that had nothing to do with love. The comfort of having the sa na of woman is strong.
Perhaps it would be a different story if I had soone in mind, though.
Isnt there anyone? Its already December, you know?
Wait, wait, whats December got to do with it?
I gradually started to beco fed up with it. I dont like conversations that surface due these sorts of seasons.
In the first place, who exactly am I supposed hook up with?
Kokoro?
Mai?
Sunou?
Rein?
None of these people fit nicely with .
Rather, how would doing that be any different than now? Its not interesting if were in a sexual relationship.
Big bro-
Whats wrong?
No, I was just wondering about whether you have excessively sharp thoughts with regards to that?
Perhaps trying to supplent herself with the style of a senior, Yuri smiled this way as though to obstruct these thoughts.
I dont think you will know this until you actually try falling in love, I guess? But you know, I thought about wanting you to try experiencing it for yourself once, and so ddlingly-
Is that so?
.ah-
I took out the Hypnotic Test buzzer that was in my pocket and let the tone ring.
Yuri feel into a hypnotic tranc without any particular problems. Strength disappeared from her eyes that were once filled with energy.
Now then, our break ti is limited, so please guide to the room.
YesI will, guide you.
This is good.
In the first place, just because its the 12th month doesnt an that any changes will co to . This was but a number created by the calendar.
Theres no way things will change.
Even after having obtained hypnosis, my essence had not undergone any changes.
It was unthinkable for such a to beco distorted.
Rather than talking about an impossible story, I had her guide towards the break room so that we could have her try out a different intervention.
