*Knock-knock
“Oopsies, let’s stop the laughter for now, it feels weird … Can you answer the door?”
“Surely my Lady.”
*Door opens.
“Excuse~ me. Umm, I will be leaving this letter here then.”
“What is the letter regarding?”
“Umm, the in-scholar ceremony will be held between us professors this evening.”
“Fumu, is the participation mandatory.”
“Ahhh, umm. It’s well, mandatory is you say mandatory, *mumbles* not mandatory if you think it’s not.”
“Come in for a second.”
“S-s-SOOORRRRYYY!!!”
“HEY!! … Maid san, get hold of that man and drag him in.”
“As my lady desires.”
——–Few minutes later.
“Please don’t erase me, please. I didn’t do anything wrong.”
“Maid san, do you have any idea what he is saying?”
“Not at all professor san.”
“Why not call me by my name maid san?”
“Why not call me by my name professor san? Also I am not your maid, I am just playing along with your fetish, since I am being paid and I get to be here.”
“Now, now, — even though you are surely enjoying that maid uniform, Mahiru. — kukuku”
“Well, the material is good after all, Kei.”
Stares daggers at each other.
“umm, can I leave already?”
“Ahh you were here huh. So I was thinking if you want it hot or cold?”
“Hiiii!!!, no, please. Let me just leave!”
“Now, now, *holds her eyebrows* What image do you even have of us now? Say truthfully.”
“…….. A witch and her apprentice. *mumbles* That is what others told me”
“……”
“……”
“……”
Whispers I think he is not that far off the mark, Kei.
Whispers What a coincidence, even I thought that for a moment right now.
Looks back with sparkling eyes, as if finding a toy
*Shivers (Boy)
“Ahm! WELL THEN BOY~ —” *pouts*—even though you look much younger than me—” “—-ugh… I — I shall take that as a compliment… —— I was wondering if you would like to become a fellow test subject. You see, I only have girls as my acquaintance after all.”
“Te–test SUBJECT? What kind of rese—— *in mind* No! don’t ask! Maybe you won’t be able to return safe! *mumbles* But then, maybe it is something sane as well, after all, looking at them, they seem so jolly and fun. *in mind* Don’t Forget I warned you!. ——- uhm, just asking, the money?”
“How about, $500 an hour, 2-4 hours a day, 5 days a week. Of course till the test-timings. And we will make sure to not affect your study cycle.”
“*Thinks* I don’t think this type of offer comes by that easily. But then again, this high amount … Seems a bit … Asks aloud what is the scope of the test *in mind* IDIOT!.”
“Call it a study~. Don’t worry, it’s just some DNA manipulation program.”
*Stands up and runs
but
“Hey – hey – hey, now – now, we can’t just let you run away like that after hearing this now can we, kukuku.”
“Hiiiiii SAVE ME!!!”
“Stop there Mahiru, what would he think of us if you do that.”
“But lady Kei…”
“No, it’s my fault after all. Since I wanted to keep this to limited people. Still, boy —” “—Alvin—” “—sorry, Alvin, please can you help us out. This will become something that can change history after all. Please.”
*Bows her head at him.
“—Can you truthfully say that you won’t do anything to me?”
“At most what I can do is hire you indefinitely. Don’t worry, you will be allowed to do your normal chores. By your looks, you don’t also seem like someone who would betray or lie.”
“… Please let me think.”
“I expect a positive answer.”
“… Ok, I was just thinking about all the conditions I can ask for.”
*Eyes widened
“This boy might be a hit, Mahiru.”
“I had the same feeling, Lady Kei.”
“Well then, see you later, Alvin. —Ahhh come to think of, is that letter really mandatory?”
“Smiles happily Nope, I got forced to deliver that to you, since I found my employment here, I will tell you about that clearly… Please dump that letter. Thank you. Thank you very much. I will take my leave.”
*Door shuts
“He looks really upstart, what do you think, Mahiru?”
………
“——– Mahiru?”
*Turns her head towards her*
“Lady Kei …”
“*Shocked*—-geh, WHAT ARE YOU GETTING LOVESTRUCK FOR IDIOT MAID!”
“HAU~UU~… But~, BUT!”
“HAAAAH, Well, see him for some time before going for the kill. Maybe he is a good catch after all.”
“Ehehehe. He is so cute afterall. I feel like protecting him throughout my life.”
“Shouldn’t it be the other way round?”
“Alvin? Alvi~? Alvin sama probably? No, Al-kun! …”
“And she is not even listening. ——-HAAAAAhhh.”
I shift my look out the window, seeing the moonlight shining, resting my face on the desk near it as a reflection of my own image forms on the window pane..
*mumbles* I wonder which date you will get the tickets for, Nii-Nii. I really can’t wait to see you.
*Clock strikes 9*
“My Lady, I think we should leave now. I will prepare the car.”
“Thank you as always Mahiru.”
“Don’t mention it.”
