Became the Butler of the Second Heroine of the Harem

34 – First (2)

The kiss.

It is an act of touching lips, and one of the many expressions of affection that people can do in general.

Since I kissed the young lady, when everyone moves in the flowing time, I have been still like a broken clock that has stopped alone.

The loud voice of the manager, who was holding an event at the restaurant, entered one ear and flowed out the other like a river. The taste of the salmon steak that came out in front of me went into my stomach like a highway without toll gates without passing through my head in my mouth.

As we left the restaurant, the conversation between the lady and the manager did not sound like people talking far away. Why are you acting like it’s broken?

My head was cold, but my heart was beating wildly. Like a robot that has understood my mind, I grabbed my groaning chest. Why is my heart beating so fast at a bird kiss that only children would do?

“Baby…”

“Did you ask for a name?”

Do you still…How much you like it.

“…Europe…”

“Yeah, why?”

“Just…That…Is to be done by people you like…”

When the young lady was a troublemaker, she never thought she would repeat what she said when she said to sleep in the same bed. Unlike then, it was not something to be taken lightly because he was at an age where he would know the difference between liking for the opposite s*x and liking for people.

“…I know. Earlier, people looked at it with expectant eyes, so you said force majeure.”

“Yes…I did…”

“A kiss like that wouldn’t count as my first kiss. When I kiss in a nicer space with a nice person confessing to me, I’ll make that my first kiss.”

She caressed her lips with a tender hand, and when she thought of the situation she had just said, she smiled spontaneously, like a girl in love.

First love.

In the warm spring, when flowers bloom beautifully in search of their sun, the young lady made me her sun and was blooming beautifully. Can it be so beautiful even though it is a bud that has just sprouted?

It was up to me what kind of flower that little bud would bloom into.

It can be a beautiful rose with prickly thorns, a sunflower that just looks at the sun, or a cistus that catches the sunlight and catches fire. Cistus is a horse that dies in sunlight and sows the seeds of sadness everywhere.

I am not a gardener who takes care of flowers, let alone the sun. It’s just a lady’s attendant.

“I hope that such a wonderful person will appear.”

Can I really be her sun? I answered with a confused heart.

“…Yeah, I’ll keep trying until I catch up to meet him.”

She looked at me and smirked while holding her hands behind her back. What the hell does she mean by catching up, which she said before? I didn’t know exactly.

“I’m ready to help.”

We can help you catch up on anything. Even if it is fake, it will have at least a small light to illuminate the flower. A sense of mischief bloomed in my relaxed mind.

“I don’t know when that person will show up.”

At my answer, the smile on her face completely disappeared. He glared at me with eyes like the blade of an ax that could strike me down right now, and fired a low kick into my calf.

Oops!

“You must earn a hawk. Yes…It’s fortunate that there’s a strong butler by your side.”

…Maybe my lady will bloom as a rose with deep thorns.

I thought that while holding on to my aching calf.

The two returned to the dormitory, changed into comfortable clothes so they could sleep right away, and came out to the living room. Instead of the pajamas she always wore, Europa came out wearing a thin black cardigan that reached her knees in a red negligee that exposed her thighs.

“You’re wearing something different today.”

Everyone has a desire to look good for their loved ones. Now, driven by that desire, she carefully asked him if the first clothes she saw fit him, and if she liked him, grabbing the hem of her cardigan and spreading it gently.

“I bought it when I went out with Shaula…How about it?”

And since she was clearly aware of her intentions, she purposely evaded her answer.

“Aren’t the negligees too short? If you do it wrong, you can see your underwear…”

“Idiot!”

“Evil!”

I bought it because Shaula said that men’s eyes would go wild if she wore clothes like this, but Europa kicked the cold place again, furious with a thunderbolt at the stupid answer that made the intention of the question questionable, let alone a reaction.

“It’s too much for you to share the same place.”

“That’s okay for a stupid butler.”

With her arms folded and her head turned, she snorted at her and saw him sitting quietly behind her. Seeing how painful she was still sitting down, she stroked his head.

“And…In that case, can’t you answer the question appropriately?”

After stroking him with a soft hand and a tone that seemed a bit regretful, I moved my hand to his face. She held his cheeks with both hands and turned her face to herself.

“How are you? Are you ready to answer?”

As he sat down, he naturally looked up at her and slightly turned her head at the momentum of her white thighs revealed in front of her.

“…The color red is so passionate…”

“…Puhuh. What is that? Really”

Europe, who had let him go and sat down carelessly on the sofa, patted the seat next to her as if telling him to sit down. When I saw him dragging his leg with a playful heart on purpose, he laughed and shook his leg wildly.

She wiped the tears from her eyes at how much she laughed as she moved her white legs, which were well-done enough to make her drool. As he sat down next to him, it was Europa who smiled and slapped his shoulder with the palm of his hand.

“Ahahahaha. Stop joking around. It’s so funny.”

“I tried to make her laugh, so I succeeded.”

“He really just jokes all the time. Stupid idiot.”

Things that would be embarrassing for others to see and hear were normal routines for them.

Just sitting next to each other and laughing and chatting in their daily lives, a month passed and it became May.

Europe, who was sitting at a table in the cafe she came with Sirius, sighed and took a spoonful of affogato ice cream and ate it. Shaula, who was sitting across from her, was about to drink the espresso from her small cup, but then put it down.

“Why are you sighing so deeply? Do you have any concerns?”

At her words, Europa’s mouth was sticking out as she stared at the affogato and stirred it with a spoon.

“Lately, the butler seems to be avoiding me and talking to other girls. Sometimes when I go looking for something, I see him talking to a different maid every time…”

“Oh, I guess it’s time for him to start paying attention to the opposite s*x.”

When she heard that, she let go of her spoon, her jaw dropped in disbelief, and her mouth opened, a look of despair creeping into her eyes.

“Are you really… Interested in other people…?”

“Anyway, people have no choice but to be interested in other members of the opposite s*x. That’s natural.”

“…I can’t… I can’t…”

Moisture began to fill Europa’s eyes at her indifferent reply. It broke her heart to think that the person she liked liked someone else.

Seeing her tear-stained expression, Shaulah calmed her down by putting ice cream in her mouth as she panicked.

“It’s just a case of talking about simple business matters or building friendships between employees. Don’t worry too much about it.”

“But when they saw me, they hurriedly evaded their seats, or when I asked them questions, they avoided answering…”

At that, Shaulla began to spin at high speed, with flashes of thought passing through her head. Looking at her calendar, she counted by folding her fingers as if she were doing calculations. She noticed something about her and smiled wryly.

“Oh-ho-ho, it’s okay. It won’t be a big deal. Rather, you should go back to the academy for dinner soon. Have dinner with Sirius and ask him slowly. He’ll probably answer nicely.”

Shaulla gave her clenched fist two or three punches before standing up. She said as she trotted behind her as Europa followed her to the counter.

“How do you know that?”

“Even now, poison is not the only weapon in the Scorpio family. Intelligence is our family’s secret and pride.”

“So, how do you know…”

“Anyway, something like that. Also, would you like to go to the dormitory first? I have a place to stop by, so I’ll go first. I’ll do the billing.”

At Shaula’s gesture of handing over two large silver coins to the counter and saying that the change was fine, the owner of the cafe smiled brightly as if lacquer had been painted on his face. Seeing that, Europa grabbed the sleeve of her robe and said,

“I don’t mind…”

“It’s because I’m grateful. It’s really sweet right now.”

“…Didn’t you drink espresso?”

“I ate a lot besides espresso.”

“…What…?”

“Then see you later!”

Unlike Europa, who made a wrinkled expression as if she didn’t know what she was talking about, Shaula, who was staring at the sky, wiped her mouth and walked to a completely different place from her academy.

“…What the hell…”

Europe, who stared at her back and muttered, eventually walked towards the dormitory alone. She walked, lost in all her thoughts. She stood in front of her room door and hesitated to go inside.

She thought that even though Shaula had said that, unless she saw it with her own eyes, she wouldn’t know. She took a deep breath and opened the door as hard as she could to check for herself. She was preparing food in her kitchen and walked towards him.

“Lady?! You said you were staying with Shaula-sama for a little while and came early…?”

Europe’s suspicion deepened when he saw him panicking while hiding something he had been making until now. As she approached her nose with her suspicious eyes, he blinked her eyes and looked at her.

“Talk to me.”

“If you just make this and talk about it…”

“Are you in a hurry?”

“This is an important task…”

“Then do it quickly.”

I walked over to the sofa with thumping steps and sat down, arms crossed, staring at the kitchen. He trembled in fear because he did not know what he had done wrong, and Sirius, who had finished the work, wiped his hands and walked over with heavy steps and carefully sat down next to her.

“…If you’re going to… Tell me…”

“What do you do when you go out and meet other girls every day? Are you hiding something from me?”

“That… Could you wait a moment?”

“…Do I have to wait for an excuse to prepare?”

“Soon!”

Unlike earlier, Sirius headed for his room with light steps as if flying, and presented a small, carefully wrapped box with a deep smile.

“…Happy birthday, ma’am.”

“… Huh?”

Europe’s face, which seemed to be angry at any excuse, was dumbfounded by the unexpected gift. When he opened the box he received from him, a stylish hairpin in red color appeared.

Taking her hairpin out of her box and looking around in different directions, Sirius sat down next to her again and said.

“I haven’t been able to take care of the lady’s birthday until now. I wanted to give her the first birthday present by receiving my first salary this time.”

“Then…Talking to other girls…

“I don’t know much about these things, so I asked and asked to find the most suitable thing for the lady. Really, I couldn’t understand what was so detailed.”

Sirius smiled, scratching the back of her head, and she looked at the hairpin on her hand, then opened her mouth.

“Wasn’t it expensive…?”

“My salary is higher than expected, lady?”

“Then you should have bought the more expensive one.”

“…That…Sorry…”

“I’m kidding, stupid.”

I stood up on the sofa and gave him a hug on the head. Sirius froze at her sudden action.

“I didn’t expect it, but I received such a pretty gift. Thank you so much. I’ll keep it for the rest of my life.”

“It’s an honor to keep it for the rest of your life.”

“…What an honor. Really…To tell the truth, he is very good at it.”

As I smiled at him sarcastically, I stepped away and stroked his head, and our eyes met in a calm and natural way. The front door burst open in a strange atmosphere where each other’s faces slowly heated up like the setting sun.

“Happy Birthday! Euro… Oh my God, oh my God…”

“Wow… I’m all embarrassed to see…”

Two uninvited guests, Shaula and Nepheli, came out of nowhere, each with a different admiration. Sirius and Europa shouted at the same time, their ears reddened by the reaction of the two.

“Knock and come in!”

“Knock and come in!”

The faces of the two were as red and fresh as a freshly ripened apple, even the content they shouted as if their hearts were connected.
