My Maid Is the Most Beautiful Girl in School

＜Episode 37＞ What has changed

Since that day, not much has changed.

They say the world looks different when you have a lover. Nothing in my world has changed.

It was the same when it was Monday morning after the weekend.

As usual, I woke up to the sunlight coming through the open curtains. Today, the door to the room was slightly open. The sound of something sizzling cooking and the smell of it penetrated through the gap.

All of this made me realize that Si-eun is back.

When I went out to the kitchen, Si-eun was still there.

Skinny jeans that fit snugly on a flattering T-shirt. On top of it, I was wearing a floral apron of my choice, and was immersed in cooking.

He seemed quite adept at stirring food in a frying pan with long chopsticks.

“Woke up?”

Si-eun didn’t even turn her head to say hello.

“yes. Can I come and wash up?”

“okay. Wash it right away.”

It seems that there is still time left to wash until the dish is finished. After receiving Si-eun’s permission, I yawned and headed to the shower room.

When I came back from the shower, the meal was already ready.

Si-eun, who was sitting on a chair in front of the table, waiting for me, turned around. His eyes were silently telling him to come and sit down, so he quickly moved his body and headed for his seat.

Various side dishes were spread out on the table as usual. Kimchi, Jangjorim, and even rolled eggs. It is also diverse.

And right in front of me was a large plate with kimchi fried rice on it.

If there was one peculiar thing, it was that the dam was somehow heart-shaped.

uh, uh

I raise my head and look at Si-eun. Si-eun was watching me with her mouth shut.

“Did you make it this way on purpose?”

When asked, Si-eun exclaimed,

“Then maybe it’s a mistake or a coincidence?”

“but. That would not be.”

Why are you talking so cold after making something like this?

On Friday when we shared our confession, he smiled brightly and expressed his emotions honestly. It came back to the way it was ticking like it was when.

But, well, I think that’s what Sieun is like.

As I started eating, Si-eun with a spoon put the food in her mouth and gave an ecstatic expression.

“Ummm!”

“Looks delicious.”

“Thanks to my culinary skills.”

Si-eun speaks proudly with her chest open.

This too was the same as usual.

Really, nothing has changed.

◎

It was the same at school, no change.

If you cling to the seat next to you right away that you’re dating, it’s like a very open advertisement. Even going into the same class, we were split into the front row and the back row, as always.

Sit down, open your laptop, and look at the seat in front of you.

Si-eun, who came to school after a long time, was smiling and talking with her friends. Since Si-eun is not present, the relationship between Si-eun and I was a topic of discussion, but fortunately, So-hye and I’s joint excuse seemed to work.

As if blocking my view, my friend sat in the front seat.

“hi.”

“Um, hello.”

When I returned my greetings, my friend took out his phone and started fiddling with it.

Even if I don’t have much to say, I’m thankful that you’re in front of me. Looking back now, wasn’t it because of my friends that I wasn’t completely isolated in the past?

Thinking like that, I just wanted to give you a word.

“hey.”

“yes.”

“Thank you so far.”

As I expressed my sincere gratitude, my friend put down his phone and stared at me with a puzzled face.

“hey.”

“yes.”

“You can’t die just because you broke up.”

“I never broke up, and I have no intention of dying.”

what kind of skip is this

Still, it was a bit sudden. In order not to cause any further worries, I decided to add more words.

“I didn’t say thank you to put my life in order. I just did it because I felt grateful in many ways.”

“In many ways?”

“okay. Well, the same goes for the one who told me to find a housekeeper.”

“Oh~”

Then the friend nodded. Then he said, “Looking back, that’s what I said.” He said and asked with a smirk.

“therefore? How are you doing with the housekeeper?”

“Uh… … .”

it did go well I’m not the old lady.

It bothered me, so I returned the appropriate answer as I had so far.

“Just fine.”

“okay?”

He didn’t seem to ask. It was fortunate. Although So-hye was actually caught, she doesn’t want her friends to find out. When things get complicated, it only hurts your head.

The friend looked worried for a moment, then nodded slightly.

“okay. When will I come and tell him about you? You know, he’s a good boy.”

“yes. Never come.”

When the lecture time was running out, the friend went back to his place.

On the other hand, So-hye, who usually volunteered to be a colleague in the back seat, was not in the classroom for some reason.

I always arrive early and get ready to sleep. what’s going on

I looked towards the door with a little bit of concern. Then, only one minute before the start of the lecture, Sohye showed up.

As she sat down and looked at So-hye, who was panting, she immediately turned her head.

“Oh, I’m sorry. Have you been waiting?”

“Why am I waiting for you?”

“You’re a colleague in the back seat.”

Sohye smiled softly in response.

It seems that he intends to continue to assert an unidentified sense of belonging. But now, if you don’t have it, you’ll notice it. It was a huge improvement compared to the beginning of the semester when I didn’t even know if someone was sitting next to me.

Come to think of it, maybe I should say thank you to Sohye too.

So-hye gave a definite assist to Si-eun’s relationship with me. If I hadn’t arranged the drinking party at that time, neither I nor Si-eun would have known my heart yet.

I’m shy, but I open my mouth.

“there.”

“yes?”

“thank you.”

“Ahaha, it’s okay.”

“I haven’t even said what I’m thankful for yet.”

“There are many things, right? As well as the separate assignments. It’s also the same with decorating an alibi last week.”

“It is.”

I realize that Sohye has been of great help in many ways. It’s annoying, but let’s buy some rice later.

“Ah, old man. By the way.”

“yes.”

When I answered quietly, Sohye smiled.

“Seunbae Si-eun is staring at me ignorantly in front of me.”

“What?”

When I turned my head to those words, I saw Si-eun staring at me in the front row.

I need to ask for forgiveness through Kakaotalk… … .

◎

And on the way home, nothing changed.

I had something to buy, so I stopped by a drug store near the school for a while and was on my way home.

The store itself is near the front door, but the house is faster to go to the back door. Of course, the fastest is a taxi, but for some reason I didn’t feel like taking a taxi today.

As a result, I ended up walking across the school back to the back door.

After a few dozen minutes of walking while moving the heavy legs, we are finally getting closer to the back door.

Near the back door stood a silhouette as if it had seen it somewhere.

Did something similar happen? Feeling a strange sense of dread, he walks towards the back door.

And at the back door that arrived, well, of course, Si-eun was standing there.

It looked like he was standing still outside and waiting for someone. The fact that the men around him glanced at him showed Si-eun’s popularity.

I approached Si-eun’s back and spoke quietly.

“what are you doing?”

Then, as if surprised, Si-eun shook her head and immediately turned her head to face me.

“I’ve been waiting for you.”

answer as if it were natural. If I took a taxi home from the drug store, it would have been like cheating on Si-eun. I stroked my chest inside.

“Weren’t you originally in class at this time?”

“Today is a day off.”

“okay?”

This is the same as back then.

“I’ll have to listen to the professor’s lecture next semester.”

“Don’t just think about playing, just study.”

Yep, I see. There was nothing to return to the words that were so right, so I just ate it.

by the way.

“Would you like to go back together?”

When asked with curiosity, Si-eun frowned and asked.

“no?”

“I like it, don’t you hate it? They say they don’t want to be found living together.”

“How are you?”

He speaks carelessly and smiles.

“Now, we can just say we’re dating.”

“… … uhm.”

That being said, I have nothing to say.

“okay.”

When I nodded my head to answer, Si-eun leaned back and held out her upper body to me and said with a soft smile.

“Shall we go then, Master?”

“master?”

“why? Am I your maid?”

Saying that, he chuckled at what was so funny.

In this case, I think I’m going to hide the relationship and leave Marco and lead to unnecessary misunderstandings… … .

On the way home with Si-eun.

The wind that blows makes me feel better. The warmer wind was telling us that summer was coming soon.

If there was one thing that was different from the previous enemies to go back to, it was that the relationship between the two became narrower than back then.

At that time, we walked a little further apart so that no one at school would ever doubt our relationship.

But now, he was walking a distance that could reach his shoulder. It wasn’t just my feet, it was like walking on a two-person tripod.

Thanks to this, I could feel the students walking around glancing at me. I am worried that tomorrow my friend will run into me again and ask about my relationship with Si-eun.

“Are you going home for vacation?”

While immersed in such thoughts, Si-eun suddenly opened her mouth.

“Branch. I’m still not at home though. I stay home for about a week and come back, I stay at home for another week and then come back. Like this.”

At my words, Si-eun turned her gaze to the other side of me and nodded her head.

“you?”

“I have been home by now. I have a job as a housekeeper, so I think I should be here this summer vacation.”

“it’s okay. I don’t mind if I go home during vacation.”

Although he said that as a courtesy, Si-eun pouted her lips for some reason.

“uh? what’s the matter?”

As I asked a question because I didn’t understand English, Si-eun looked up at me. I don’t know why, but his face was slanted, and his eyes were sharp.

“Are you saying it’s okay if I don’t have you all vacation?”

“What… … You can eat ramen freely.”

“huh.”

Now he has turned his head away.

It was a response that came out of a bitter laugh. I think the joke was serious. As an apology, I decided to be honest.

“It must be sad. Even when I wasn’t there for a few days. I think I’ll be lonely if I can’t see your face all summer long. I still have to go home.”

“Then that’s it.”

Si-eun asked as if tossing.

“Will you come to my house?”

“Well, that’s… … can’t it be I can come and go for a while.”

He patted his chin and answered.

Then Si-eun spoke softly.

“It’s okay for a moment, so come home. Because I want to introduce myself to my mother.”

“I’m afraid I might hear a thief.”

“What are you talking about.”

Si-eun snorts with excitement when she puts realistic worries on her lips.

“This is the man I chose. Mom will love it too.”

“Uh… … .”

Hearing these words suddenly made my heart race.

If there is one thing that has changed since we started dating, this is probably it.

Si-eun started attacking at a completely unexpected timing. It feels like the damage is doubled when he always tiktik and sometimes says cute things like this.

After a while we were almost home. I wanted to go into the house as it is, but Si-eun turned and faced me.

“I’m going to the supermarket. What do you like for dinner?”

“anything.”

“Anything is the most difficult answer.”

“Then what you want to eat.”

“Ugh.”

Si-eun, who was given an irresponsible answer, seemed to ponder for a moment.

“Then let’s make eel rice bowl.”

“It’s a bit… … .”

“why? while saying anything. Then, can’t I decide on my own?”

Si-eun raised an eyebrow and asked.

Of course, it would be delicious if Si-eun made it, but… … . I wanted to believe that it would not have an unusual meaning. But do they sell eels in the supermarket in the first place?

Anyway, I had no intention of rejecting it. “Well, yes.” Si-eun waved her hand as she nodded as if saying so.

“Then see you later at home.”

With these words, Si-eun turned and walked towards the mart.

As I looked back, I suddenly remembered something.

He catches up with Si-eun’s back with slow steps.

Hearing the footsteps, Si-eun turned her head.

“What, what? Why did you come?”

“Uh, that’s it.”

I’m embarrassed to say it because I’m face to face with myself.

But what’s wrong with going back home saying it’s nothing? Let’s just say what we’ve been thinking since we’ve come this far. With that in mind, I scratched my cheek and spoke.

“I want to go to the market together after a long time.”

After hearing my words, Si-eun blinked her big eyes for a moment, and then immediately smiled.

“You have changed a lot.”

“What?”

“Nothing.”

Then he smiles and walks ahead.

“wait.”

“You can come quickly.”

Si-eun seemed unwilling to wait.

Following Si-eun like that.

Maybe according to Si-eun’s words… … I wondered if it was me who changed the most.

I thought for a moment.
