“Thanks for the bath.”
The maid comes out of the bathroom. The beautiful silver hair swung easily out of the corner of my eye.
“Have you warmed up—-wait, what on earth are you wearing?”
The wet maid’s clothes are still drying, so I left a suitable long-sleeved jersey for her to change into……
“What’s wrong?”
“Don’t give me that ! Why aren’t you wearing any pants !?”
The maid was wearing only a jersey. Her beautiful white legs were boldly exposed.
“Because they aren’t pretty.”
“Haaaaa !?!?”
“It’s important to be pretty. Even maid uniforms are cute, aren’t they?”
The maid seems to prefer the slightly erotic style of jerseys.
Sighs leak out.
“……Don’t you feel cold?”
She just took a bath.
I turn on the air conditioner and raise the temperature.
“You’re really kind.”
“I think it’s normal.”
“But you were the only one who approached me.”
“There are no pedestrians in the first place.”
That’s why I’m seriously going to die, she said.
“The girl who dumped you, someone so kind, must be really something.”
“…….”
My chest hurts sharply.
“…..How did you know that?”
I ask unintentionally.
“This room smells of a woman. There were a lot of items in the bathroom that seemed to belong to her.”
It’s a simple deduction, the maid continued.
“A man like you would not let another woman into his love nest unless he was breaking up with his girlfriend.”
She was absolutely right; I had never let anyone into this room except my ex-girlfriend. There were no plans to do so in the future.
Oh, this room is filled with memories that I don’t want to remember anymore…….
I wonder if she had no interest in me the last time she came to my room. I wonder if she was planning to break up. We had been together for years, but I had no idea.
I don’t know what I would have done if I had come straight home and seen this room.
I knew I was right to go and drink.
I don’t know what happened after that, though.
The maid, a stranger among strangers in this room, shook her silver hair and looked aloof. Even though this is the room of a man who has just been heartbroken, she doesn’t seem to be at all wary.
Well, I have no intention of doing anything about it.
“—-Once again.”
The maid suddenly straightened her composure.
“Thank you for your help just now. My name is Shirayuki Towa.”
Then, she bowed in the maid’s way. (Not very elegant in her jersey.)
“I am a maid by profession.”
She smiled wickedly.
“I thought you were a former one?”
“My intention is still to be a maid, so I thought there would be no problem.”
“You are obsessed with maids, aren’t you?”
“I’ll wear my maid’s uniform again once it’s dry.”
Shirayuki Towa.
A stray maid.
She seems mysterious and mystical.
Although she has a warm smile on her face, there seems to be something dark about her expression.
But that ambivalence contributes to her beauty.
When I saw her after the bath, I was captivated by her stunning beauty.
“Kusuhara Itsuki. I’m a college student.”
She said her name in return.
“Itsuki san.”
She mumbled and nodded her head.
“It’s a pretty name.”
“Well, it’s a name used by women as well.”
“It’s good. I like it very much.”
She repeated “Itsuki san” and “Itsuki san” over and over again.
I was a little embarrassed.
“I’ll start straight away, Itsuki san, there’s no need to use honorific language when speaking to a maid.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes. Please be more frank.”
“I understand—-got it, Shirayuki san.”
I’ll be honest and drop the honorifics.
“Please use my name.”
“Eh?”
“How about ‘Towa chan’?”
“As expected, that’s a little too….then Towa san.”
“Even though…..chan is prettier.”
She seemed quite displeased.
“How old are you, Towa san?”
“It’s bad manners to ask that to a woman, isn’t it?”
“Well, I guess it is.”
She did not answer me, but I was sure that she was older than me.
I did not dare to call an older woman with ‘chan’.
“Nice to meet you, Towa san.”
Having introduced ourselves, I held out my hand for a handshake.
“………….”
Towa san stared at my hand with a frustrated look on her face, as if she was still not satisfied with the way I called her.
After a few seconds, I let out a sigh,
“I’ll ask you to call me Towa chan another time…….”
She smiled and took my hand.
“I look forward to working with you in the future, Itsuki san.”
I had no idea at the time that this would be a fateful encounter that would last far into the future.
