chapter 2
2 – The tomboy girl
“Si~ri~u~s.”
The young lady slowly calls the name of the star that has come to be called me now. Just like the image of the snake offering Eve the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil, looking at her eyes wide open like a crescent moon and her smiling face, it was clear what the purpose of the call was.
“No.”
No way.
The young lady sorted out the books she read and put them in between the books, ignoring them. If you don’t see it, you’re probably asking to play together.
“You haven’t said anything yet?”
“I’m doing it because I know you’re going to ask me to play.”
When I firmly refused, he stuck his mouth out and looked at me with disappointed eyes. Even if you make a face like that, you won’t lose a drop of honey. I put all the books in and shook my hands.
“Tch, it’s not fun. I liked it much better when I couldn’t talk.”
“Yes, yes then I won’t talk.”
“Oh, that sucks! Sirius the idiot! He’s shorter than me and acts like an adult.”
“…”
“Oh, really!”
My lady who sees my tightly closed mouth and vomits a lion’s roar. It pierced my eardrum enough to bleed into my ear.
To be honest, dealing with children is difficult. Especially in the case of our young lady who has a lot of stamina and strong self-esteem like children who are already at the elementary school level.
Then she grabs her by the shoulder from behind and shakes her, her vision bobbing up and down her.
Now that winter has passed and fresh spring has come, I have gained some weight and barely escaped my skinny body, but I couldn’t stand up to the innate muscularity unique to the lady’s family.
“Stop that, lady!”
“I’ll keep rocking you until you say you’re playing with me!”
Holding and shaking the shoulder, which is likely to be traumatic now. She shuddered every time I refused her request, and one time out of ten she fainted.
I had no choice but to raise my hands and surrender to a child who could not control her strength and her growing strength.
“Okay! You can play with me! Play with me!”
“Whoa!”
After shaking it enough to make people faint, I hugged her as if it was fun, and as I rubbed her cheeks, I felt her smooth skin on my cheek.
Looking at him smiling and laughing as if he was satisfied, he seemed like he was going to die right away, but he laughed at the feeling of dealing with his younger cousin.
“Then, what should we do?’
“Hmm…Hide and seek?”
“…Hide and seek?”
It’s a game that young ladies don’t usually play. I haven’t played hide-and-seek since my mistake the other day. Did the wind blow to do it? Did I find a place to hide that I didn’t know about?
“Well, that’s good. Then, lady, I’ll count to 100 seconds, so please hide.”
“Okay, let’s start!”
As I closed my eyes and started counting, I heard the slight sound of the door opening. I also expected not to hide here. I slightly opened her eyes and checked to see if she had left her room.
I looked at the room without a sign and hurriedly cleaned the mess. Of course, I was counting with my mouth. Since I went into the next room and didn’t make a sound, I’ll say it’s invalid.
“Ninety-eight…Ninety-nine…One hundred! I’ll find it!”
I finished tidying up the room, shouting “Baek”. Shaking off her hands, he started traveling to her mansion to find her.
When looking for a person, the first step is to search. As soon as she left the door, she saw a maid passing by her, Leona, with her brown hair in a ponytail and her freckles on the bridge of her nose, carrying her pile of laundry and asked.
“Have you seen the lady?”
Leona looked at me and shook her head, her eyes widening.
“No, I didn’t see it? What happened to you, lady?”
When asked if it was serious, I put on an innocent smile thinking of my young age.
“No! I’m playing hide-and-seek with the lady, but she’s gone. Let me know if you see her later!”
“Oh, I thought the lady was gone again. Yes~ I’ll tell you when I see the lady!”
Seeing her smiling brightly while carrying her pile of laundry, she bows her head. I asked every employee who looked like this, but they all said they hadn’t seen it.
The investigation is already difficult. Couldn’t a single person in this spacious mansion of hers have seen her? Did she tell the servants not to tell her that she saw her?
You have become a clever young lady. Now, if her interrogation doesn’t work, I have no choice but to run on her feet.
Ahhh, I sighed spontaneously. Where did our mischievous lady hide this time? She was hiding in her closet in the guest room of her villa, which she didn’t use the other day to play hide-and-seek.
I didn’t think of that place because it was her villa, which was the farthest away from her mansion, so I couldn’t find her until after an hour.
The girl I found was crying and hugging me until I was crushed.
‘Hibb. I was afraid that Sirius wouldn’t come… Hib, Sirius is an idiot…A foolish servant who can’t even find a master… Hib’
Then she finally got emotional and let her cry out. After that, she started calling me stupid out of habit. I think it’s childish whining, so I’m thinking it’s because it’s cute.
This time I’ll find it within an hour. She made up her mind and thought about what it would be called if she couldn’t find it.
…Do you want to be an idiot?
#
I don’t know.
I really don’t know.
I have no idea where you are hiding.
Thirty minutes since I wandered around the mansion looking for her lady, I was wandering around her mansion still unable to find her. Fortunately, today was the weekend, so there were no class schedules for the lady.
Still, playing hide-and-seek in such a spacious mansion is no different from a crime… How can I find a tagger! I wanted to shout even if I couldn’t find it. If the lady is within reach of her voice.
All I did was open an empty room, ask, ‘Miss?’, And search in the closet or under the bed. I felt exhausted from repetitive work, but I wasn’t exhausted.
I also have the stamina of an elementary school student, and compared to the skinny body I used to have, I gained weight under my skin and developed muscles to support my body. It’s not like a beagle that runs all over the place whenever you’re bored like a young lady.
I opened the door about the 18th time and opened the closet about 30 times. The only thing in my head was that I should ask the lady not to play hide-and-seek again. I’d rather play a house that requires a bit of acting skills.
Takes a reluctant step…
I climbed the stairs and arrived at the fifth floor, the last floor of the mansion. On this floor, where the Count’s office, the butler’s office, and the large conference room were equipped, the only empty one was the large conference room, so he carefully opened the door.
As expected, I sighed in relief at the empty conference room and continued the work I had done so far, but the results were not there either.
Oh, troublesome, where the hell did you hide? While I was walking around the 5th floor after coming out of the door with my temples covered and my head hurting, I came across something I shouldn’t have been with.
A folding wooden staircase to my room.
It was the first place I opened my eyes after entering the Taurus family, and the stairs of the attic where I live now came down. Why are the stairs that come down when I pull a long rope hanging from the ceiling that barely reaches my height?
I left the attic in the morning and even tidied it up. What are the stairs in front of me?
Breakdown? There is no way. The butler said that it was a magical staircase, so I checked it periodically.
The most recent regular inspection was a week ago. After confirming that there was no problem at that time, I went to check if there was a problem elsewhere. Then there is only one answer.
It is time to end the long and short game of hide and seek.
I slowly climbed the stairs. Even if the lights were turned off, the sunlight coming in through the large window, I put a blanket on the bed in the bright attic and saw a periodically moving object.
I must have tidied up my room and left, but what is that object up there? Of course she must be our troublemaker.
I slowly removed the blanket and found Europa, a blonde little girl who was sleeping soundly, breathing comfortably, lying down like a shrimp.
Who would have known that he would hide so hard and fall asleep? Someone walked around sweating their feet. I wanted to pinch those chubby cheeks that move with every breath.
The hand that was going to the ball moved to the head with patience. Her soft hair, as if touching silk, followed her whenever she moved her hand.
I wanted to do this when I saw what she usually does, but I tried it this time because I was shorter than her.
I think I’m going to get addicted to stroking her hair, so it’s time to stop and wake up the lady.
“Lady, wake up”
“Uhh… Just a little more…”
“If you sleep now, you won’t be able to sleep at night.”
“I like it because it’s warm here in the sun…”
A young lady with half-open eyes looked at me, smiled broadly, and curled her shrimp-like body even tighter. I laughed at the momentum of evolving from a shrimp to an ammonite.
“Sirius, let’s lie down here and sleep together.”
The young lady seduced me by beating my bed weakly, but she didn’t even try.
“Lady, when a man and a woman lie in bed together and sleep together, it’s something people like to do.”
“…I like Sirius? Does Sirius not like me?”
Ah, it seemed like this.
The young lady is still at an age where she can’t tell the difference between her crush on the opposite s*x and her crush on people. How can I explain this difference?
Even if you rack your brain and try to explain, she won’t understand. Making others understand what is difficult for me to explain? It will be difficult even for university professors.
Okay, let’s give up.
“Yes, I don’t like masters who don’t listen to their servants and do whatever they want.”
Let’s give up explanations and go out resolutely. If you do it this way, even if you hate it a little, won’t you listen?
“…Stupid”
A girl with a pouty expression sitting on the bed from where she was lying down. This was expected. They say they don’t like it openly, but who would like it?
She smiled helplessly and awkwardly and reached out to the young lady to get her up from the bed.
“But I like a master who listens to his servants and doesn’t have his own way. So would you please stand up, my lady?”
“Sirius is despicable. You can’t help but listen to him with such a face while talking like adults all the time.”
Her hand slowly grasping the hand she gave her. The moment I touched her hair as soft as hers, the young lady grabbed my hand and pulled me towards her.
It happened so quickly that I was held in her arms without a chance to resist.
“Ah, Sirius also wants to sleep. Yes, we can sleep together. Now, let’s go to sleep.”
“Ah, lady!”
I tried to call the young lady, but it was no use. She tried to move, but her arms, stronger than mine, held her tightly as if tied with a rope.
My lady’s family is actually not a bull, but a snake. No, just looking at this power, the bull is right. The young lady moved and laid me down on the bed and placed her head on his chest while holding me in her arms.
“It’s nice to hear Sirius pounding.”
“Yes, yes you would.”
I gave up. I can’t win by force, but there’s no way I can get up from a completely lying down state. In the end, I had no choice but to sleep in the same bed as the lady wanted.
The lady looked up and smiled at my face. What would be so good
“hehehe, good night, Sirius.”
“Good night, ma’am.”
“Ugh. Hi… Haam…”
Blonde hair flowing like silk pours down my chest. It wasn’t long before the lady closed her eyes, and the sound of her breathing that she had just heard echoed slowly. I want to get out, but when I get up, he wakes up and gets angry.
I gave up and hugged the girl, worried that she might fall on the bed while sleeping. Her arms and body warmed her body, and her regular breathing sounded like a lullaby, causing her eyes to slowly close.
In the end, the lady and I fell asleep on my bed in the attic.
When I woke up, it was almost time for dinner. The clothes she was wearing were damp from the drool shed while sleeping. I tried to change my clothes later and let the lady go back to her room first. I had to.
“Why are you and Sirius coming out of the attic at this time?”
“What, sir?”
The young lady and I got scolded by the butler who came out of his office. Because I slept in the same bed as you.
I got scolded even louder for saying I should have dried up more. I knew it would be like this. Still, after this day, the young lady listened to me a little better.
Very little though.
