Possessed As the Butler of a Defeated Heroine

33 – Let’s follow the lady!

After school.

As promised, I induced Ryunosuke to wait in front of the school gate. At the same time, send Amelia to meet as promised.

So far, the plan worked well, but the problem comes next.

‘In a situation where I can’t keep an eye on you, what kind of conversation will Ryunosuke and Amelia have?’

That’s what I thought first.

If I had known this would happen, I would have planned it a little more carefully.

I wish I could have asked Edna Rachel to put a transmitter on Amelia’s clothes.

‘I’ll take care of it myself.’

I have no right to intervene here.

…… If you say that, people have no affection.

Should I follow it for now? After that, there is no specific schedule.

A butler struggling for the lady’s love…… Isn’t this a pretty cool position?

Thinking of that, I saw Amelia and Ryunosuke walking outside the window, so I decided to follow right away.

***

If it goes according to the original plan…… I should have followed Amelia and Ryuunosuke alone.

How did this happen?

“Jin-chan, look at this! Isn’t it very cute?”

“Ahahahaha…… Yes, that’s cute.”

“Cha-am…… Look at me and tell me!”

While chasing after Amelia and Ryunosuke, I stopped by the city and accidentally ran into Ohana and ended up walking with her.

At this rate, it is inconvenient to smoothly follow.

“Looking at you. It’s a rabbit hairpin. The hairband I gave you as a gift suits you much better, so don’t look at anything else, Hana-chan.”

“Eh? Ah…… Yep!”

It’s a little intrusive, but it’s better to turn Ohana’s attention to me.

If there is an event where Ryunosuke takes an interest in another heroine just because of one tick, it might be a little difficult.

Even more so in this situation.

Ryuunosuke is already childhood friends with Ohana, and Amelia also met Ryunosuke when they were young.

There is a feeling that both of them are in an adversarial relationship.

If you think about that, it’s going to turn into a real mess.

‘…… It’s a big deal, it’s not good.’

Should I give up following Amelia? No, I think there might be a way……

But my heart won’t allow me to leave Ohana behind.

No matter how much I loved Amelia, strictly speaking, she is no different from a defeated heroine.

For me, a defeated heroine is a person to be pitied and cherished.

Anyway, now is the time to pay attention to that side.

Amelia and Ryuunosuke entered the cafe at good timing.

“Hana-chan.”

“Huh? Jin-chan.”

“Can we go to a cafe?”

“Ka, cafe?”

“Yes. Cafe.”

“Eh…… Also, so…… Not bad…… ?”

“Let’s go.”

I took Ohana’s hand. Then Ohana suddenly let out a thin scream.

“Hiyah?!”

“Hana-chan. Sorry. I accidentally grabbed her hand.”

“Oh, no. I’m just a little surprised…… “

It would be better if you let go for now.

As I let go of her hand, I think I can hear Ohana’s sigh…… Is it because of the mood?

That’s not important right now. It’s more important to follow Amelia and Ryuunosuke.

“Sorry to startle you. I want to go to a cafe soon.”

“Do you like cafes that much?”

“Well, I like it.”

In fact, there were often cases where I would order coffee at a cafe during lunchtime when I was working.

If you work at a manual labor board, coffee mix is good, but cafe coffee is also delicious.

Drinking from a vending machine, I used to do that when I wanted to drink luxuriously.

“Then…… How is Jin-chan’s coffee taste?”

Ohana asked cautiously.

“Uh…… What am I, caramel macchiato?”

“You seem to like sweet things, Jin-chan.”

“Doesn’t it suit you?”

“Oh no! I just thought it was like that.”

“What? Go crazy.”

“Baby, let’s go to the cafe quickly!”

Ohana headed to the cafe first.

***

Japanese cafes have a very different atmosphere from the Korean cafes I know. For example, instead of holding a vibrating bell and picking up coffee like a brand cafe, the staff brought it directly.

Me and Ohana took our seats. Seats where Amelia and Ryuunosuke can’t see each other, but can see each other from this side.

And if you concentrate a little, you can hear the conversation over there.

At times like this, it’s strange, but my hearing seems to be normal. It’s a level that’s hard to dismiss because of the mood.

“Jin-chan, have you decided on the menu?”

“Yes. Hana-chan?”

“Umm…… Could you wait a little longer?”

Ohana said that while looking at her menu board and continuing to ponder.

Speaking to yourself, ‘sweets, sweets…… Delicious sweets…… ‘ Seeing her humming while muttering the same thing, it seemed that she was very happy to be at the cafe.

In the meantime, I decided to pay attention to hear what Amelia and Ryunosuke were talking about.

“…… That’s right, Natsuki.”

“It was like that in the past. At that time, Iori too…… Did you?”

…… It’s subtle, this.

I can hear it, but I can’t hear it as a whole.

‘So what did Amelia do in the past?’

…… That was the only thought.

Even if you know the content well, it is very difficult to infer “What happened in the past?” If you don’t hear the exact content.

It doesn’t matter if it’s just one, but there might be a story behind it that I don’t know about.

For example…… The reason Shingo Kurosawa and Amelia Iori Lionheart met.

I was completely unaware of that.

These are the contents that didn’t actually appear in the main story.

“…… Chan, Jin-chan!”

As I was listening intently, Ohana called me.

“Huh?”

“I’ve been calling since a while ago…… !”

Ohana puffs out her cheeks and shows a pout. This is a little cute……

“Oh, sorry. I have a little something to think about.”

“Thought? What is it?”

“It’s not too much to say, so it’s okay.”

“…… For a little bit, you can rely on me…….”

“Huh? What?”

“Oh no! Jin-chan is stupid…… !”

No really, are the ear canals clogged? I can’t hear you again. I wonder if the love comedy correction should be done in moderation at this level.

I know what he said, but I couldn’t hear what he said, so my head hurt.

“Then, I’ll make the menu for you. What do you want to eat?”

“I, I have pudding a la mode, hot cakes, and…… Honey milk?”

“Take it in moderation. If you eat like that, can’t you eat dinner?”

“Ah, eh…… ! That’s right, hehehe…….”

“Then, pudding Ara Mode and honey milk should be fine, right?”

“Yes!”

“Okay, I’ll order and come back soon, so please wait.”

While saying that, I got up and headed to the counter.

***

Ohana looked at Hyunjin’s back as she stood up from her seat.

“Haa… ….”

As he headed to the counter, he let out a belated sigh.

“Are you deliberately pretending not to hear…… ?”

Otherwise, it’s a bit sad not to hear it from such close range.

Of course, there are assumptions that Hyunjin may have really bad ears.

Whatever it was, it was disappointing from Ohana’s point of view.

“By the way, this is the first time I’ve been to a cafe with a friend…… Also, with a man…… “

Ohana had no friends. As a result, she was always alone even when she came to the cafe, and Ryunosuke was the only person she could call a boyfriend, not a lover.

At the beginning of the semester, there was no contact with Hyunjin for a month. Of course, Ryunosuke was the same.

Wouldn’t Ohana have known that the encounter on the way to school in the morning, because of work on duty, would be an opportunity?

That’s why I didn’t expect the relationship to progress to this extent.

A situation like this only felt warm to Ohana. In particular, she is invited to a cafe in a situation like this!

Not many, just the two of you?

If you think about it that way, it’s clear that the other person might have a crush on me.

“Oh, no. That’s not my intention, but…… !”

Ohana shook her head and murmured.

Whatever it is, it is Hyun-jin who invites her to go to her cafe first.

She hadn’t had a single person who had invited Ohana to go to her cafe so far.

That’s why even such a trivial recommendation felt deeply meaningful.

“Ryu-chan and Jin-chan… ….”

Both of them are attractive to themselves. If Ryunosuke was the man he had in his heart since childhood, Hyunjin was the one who suddenly appeared in front of him and stole his heart.

While Ohana thought about that, she raised both her hands and covered her face. Because she didn’t want anyone to see her blushing face.

“What can I do…… ?”

My heart is shaking. Unlike Ryunosuke, who always said the same thing, Hyunjin treated him positively.

Is this feeling right?

I know it’s not good to have two men in your heart.

What if Hyunjin intentionally approached me?

“No way, it can’t be.”

That said, his attitude is too kind. At least, unlike his childhood friend Ryunosuke, who lives next door right away and has been playing with him since childhood.

“It is not an easy decision…… Okay, let’s calm down.”

I thought so, but why did my heart keep beating when I saw Hyunjin’s back?

It was difficult for Ohana to understand those feelings.

“Ah, come to think of it…… “

She couldn’t return her handkerchief that was supposed to be returned from school. When Hyunjin comes, I have to give it back.

While thinking about that, Ohana waited for Hyunjin.
