88 – Enemy and Friend

Preparations for the cultural festival were well underway today. I was waiting for them, looking at the clock in front of the downtown area, where they showed up even earlier than the scheduled time.

Before, I invited the acting team to a screening and helped them with their acting guidance. Today was the day we gathered to buy props and materials for the background.

Should I say it is quite authentic?

It was a good thing to work hard to prepare for this and that.

The problem was that the woman’s intentions were unknown.

“…… “You came quite early.”

At the sound of the voice she heard, she turned her head and looked that way.

“Oh~~ Hohoho! Mr. Minsu! Aren’t you so excited? “There are still thirty minutes left for the appointment?”

“…… “That goes for Shiraishi as well.”

I was worried that she might come wearing an award ceremony dress like she did when she went to the movie theater, but fortunately today Shiraishi was wearing ordinary civilian clothes. Still, it seemed like she liked to stand out, although the clothes were full of booties and the pattern on the skirt was flashy.

“Ah… hello.”

He said hello to Elena who was standing next to him.

She quietly lowered her head.

She, too, was not wearing a maid uniform, but rather a plain outfit of a white blouse and jeans.

She let out a sigh of relief as it seemed like some of her worries were relieved.

A duo wearing an awards ceremony dress and an old-fashioned maid outfit will definitely stand out even more than before.

I suddenly felt her gaze on me and raised my head to see Elena staring intently at me.

To the point where it feels a little burdensome.

“……… Why… why?”

The moment I asked that, she stretched out her hand.

When her hand touched my shoulder, she flinched and was surprised.

“On her shoulder…… “There were stitches still attached.”

Throwing away the item she had taken away, she spoke in a nonchalant manner.

It’s burdensome….

For your information, I ate all the cookies I received.

I brought it home and thought about it carefully, but an hour after I took a bite, I found that there was nothing wrong with it, so I ate it all.

It was an ordinary delicious cookie.

So I didn’t know her intentions and fell into even more confusion.

Why?

Considering that Elena tolerates the gathering to prepare for the cultural festival, it is clear that Elena has also lowered her emotional hurdles to some extent.

Sometimes I couldn’t figure out why he was making meaningless actions or looking at me.

If you think about it simply, it would be to be wary of me.

If I only think about it that way, I can’t understand the meaning of the cookie that was secretly given only to me.

For reference, her arms exposed through the blouse were white and clean without any blemishes.

When I accidentally saw the body in the bathroom, I couldn’t believe Yu-Ah’s brag-filled story that her entire body was full of scars.

***

The young lady was quite excited.

Whether it is in school life or in relationships with friends.

It had been a long time since I had seen such a young lady, or perhaps it could be said that it was the first time I had seen her since she started going to school.

Especially in front of that boy.

“It’s also hot. Shiraishi, should I wait in the shade over there?”

“Yes. “I do that.”

He smiles and follows the girl walking side by side with him.

“Wait here for a moment.”

After moving for a moment and sitting on a bench under a large tree, the boy said that.

He went to a nearby convenience store and took out some ice cream from a bag.

“Now, here.”

“Ah… yes… !”

From noble mtl dot com

Even though she was only receiving the ice cream, the young lady looked at him with longing eyes, with a smile on her face as if she had received a big gift.

“Elena too… Here you go.”

“……… ….”

A little shyly, he offered me ice cream as well.

“…… Thank you.”

He sits side by side on the bench and eats ice cream while waiting for them. The young lady spends leisurely time chatting with the boy.

That was a rare experience for both the young lady and me.

I have always been busy as an employee of the Shiraishi family and as the young lady’s nanny.

“Ah, Minsu… !”

Miss Kato was seen waving his hand from afar.

“Aki-chan and Elena too… ! “You came first!”

“Miss Haru~!”

The young lady stands up and shakes his hand.

Midday of the weekend. A promise I made with friends. Days spent leisurely waiting for them.

If it weren’t for the deviation of the young lady who ran away because she couldn’t bear her previous life, would he have been able to live such an ordinary time?

No. If it weren’t for the help of someone who helped her adapt to life here and get along with everyone.

I turn my gaze and look at him.

As a result of the investigation, it was discovered that all the events omitted from Aiden’s report were related to the boy.

He was silently taking care of the young lady without showing any signs.

While the young lady and Miss Kato were talking, the boy who was absent-mindedly holding a stick in his mouth looked over in shock.

He seems to have noticed my gaze and is turning his head and pretending not to notice.

“Wait a minute… “I’m going to go to the bathroom.”

“Oh, yes.”

“Please come back~!”

Do you run away to the bathroom when you’re nervous? The boy stood up hesitantly and fell away from the group. I could tell that he had moved away for a moment to avoid me.

It was easy to guess how my presence would be viewed by the person helping the young lady with her academy life.

I felt the need to resolve that misunderstanding in some way.

I guess cookies alone weren’t enough.

I am not as scary a person as I thought.

I felt like I needed to let him know that I also wanted her to be happy.

***

Wash your hands that have become sticky with ice cream.

Even while Haruna and Shiraishi were chatting, the woman kept watching me.

Is that surveillance?

I was so nervous that I left the table without even thinking about eating ice cream.

I can’t even walk around comfortably like this….

It was nice to get together to prepare for the cultural festival. She actually tried to create a situation where Yuuki and Shiraishi could be alone together if it weren’t for that woman.

The screening held before that was actually Yuuki, the female protagonist Shiraishi’s counterpart.

She invited Yuuki to spend time alone together.

Or going on a date just for the two of you under the pretext of buying props.

However, I couldn’t create such a blatant situation because I was sensitive, so I just led everyone to gather together and go buy props.

“But surprisingly, Shiraishi….”

She mumbled and shook off her wet hands.

This is what I felt while looking at her recently, but these days, Shiraishi’s appeal to Yuuki has decreased considerably.

Now, she was starting to wonder if she really liked Yuuki.

If I am doing something useless….

I looked in the mirror and sighed softly.

Is what I am doing right?

I wasn’t sure if I was truly leading Shiraishi correctly.

I leave the bathroom and head to where they are.

In the past, I would have come back right away because I was worried that I would be in trouble because I was caught by strange men again, but now I have Elena.

I think most men would not even be able to approach her because of her energy.

I thought as I got closer.

“…… Ahahahaha.”

As expected. There were several men in front of them.

I approached them with the feeling that living as a pretty girl must be quite tiring.

“…… Get out of the way. “I won’t tell you twice.”

“What, I just asked for your number!”

“You look free, let’s play together!”

The energetic men were eagerly appealing to the girls, and Haruna smiled bitterly.

And then Elena slowly got up and stood in front of them.

“Huh? No way, that red hair… Shiraishi?”

“Really? “The daughter of the Shiraishi family?”

As expected, her men made a fuss about her, recognizing that she was famous in public.

The voices got louder and they started hitting harder.

No, I was about to attack.

“Here’s the number… “Quaaa!!”

The wrist of the man who was holding out his cell phone was caught by Elena. His arm was immediately bent in the opposite direction.

For a moment, Yoo Ah’s exaggerated joke came to mind.

– Elena. The enemy is merciless –

– Arm pulled out. –

Those men were clear enemies to her.

I remembered Elena’s gaze, which had been watching me just now.

If I too am treated as her enemy….

“Get out.”

After letting go of their arms, the men left in a hurry.

All he did was flirt with pretty women who seemed leisurely. In return, I saw the backs of men whose arms were almost torn off.

“Eh, Elena… There’s no need to go that far….”

“Yes. “I cannot forgive men who dare to make unpleasant remarks to the young lady of the Shiraishi family.”

Ugh….

I think back to my journey with Shiraishi.

What was noteworthy was that despite all this commotion, Shiraishi did not even bat an eye and was just looking at his cell phone with a bored expression.

As if seeing Elena like that was familiar.

Just then, I took out my cell phone when it vibrated in my pocket.

It was a phone call from Shiraishi.

Although she exchanged numbers a while ago.

“…… Hello.”

There was no need to answer since it was right nearby, but I connected the call.

“Minsu? “Where are you? It’s time for an appointment soon, but I’m contacting you because you seem to be late!”

“…… “Look behind you.”

“Yes? Ah… ….”

Shiraishi stood up, looked at us, and waved his hand happily.

“Mr. Minsu~!”

I just left for a moment. Shiraishi motioned as if to come quickly. Next to her is Elena.

I joined them, avoiding the gaze that was still staring at me.
