Having Had My Bride Stolen, I Just Want to Live Peacefully

Retro coffee shop “Last Quarter Moon.”

After noon, the peak had gone, the customers were scattered, and a calm atmosphere was flowing through the shop.

When I had high heels at the entrance, I thought my heart would stop beating.

I was surprised to hear a cold voice that I had never heard before.

Nene looked back at this morning’s work in a coffee shop where he was working part-time, staring vacantly at the hall.

I just imagined that it might happen because I was an adult, but my heart ached and it became painful.

But when I saw Arata-san, I was relieved that he left his apron on.

I wonder if Nene’s embroidery on his apron stopped him.

I don’t think so.

Arata-san has always been a sincere person who doesn’t do such a thing.

His ex-supervisor told me that he had come to their house as if nothing had happened, and he was getting less and less poisoned.

I was happy with that, but I wonder if they think the same way…

Nene looks down a little.

A small stain on the coffee shop tiles is visible.

Even so, I can’t believe I’m going to feed Arata-san’s food other than Nene! Gosh!

I thought it was only Nene who could eat Arata-san’s food!

Nene, who looked up at the thought, puffed up her cheeks.

It was for a moment that her face was loosened.

If they tell her that she made it right after that, I have no choice but to forgive them.

It’s surprisingly simple and makes me laugh.

“Nene-chan, you’ve always been very expressive!”

“Ah, shop manager.”

A cheerful woman in her late twenties and early thirties spoke to her.

Tsukimi Yumi, the second-generation manager of the retro coffee shop “Last Quarter Moon”, looks like a band with long blue-collar hair and earrings.

Contrary to her appearance, she has a strategic aspect, such as maintaining the taste of the coffee shop that my father gave me, developing a menu that looks unique and looks good, and attracting popularity on SNS by hiring cute girls.

Among the women, the tall girl looked good in waiter style and was popular not only with men but also with women.

“I never get tired of watching Nene-chan these days.”

“Is that so?”

Nene turned her head with a thud.

“Yeah! You didn’t notice it yourself?”

“…I’m a little conscious.”

“I suppose, are you by any chance involved with Arata-san?”

Nene, who was given a name she knew, hardened with a look of astonishment.

“How do you know the manager?”

“Because sometimes you call me by that name.”

“Ah. Did I say that?”

“Yeah, I’m telling you not to doze off sometimes, aren’t you? You didn’t seem to notice that, did you?”

The manager grinned and looked at Nene’s face.

“I-I’m ashamed…”

Nene said while hiding her red face with her thin white hands.

She was just a girl in love.

“Nene-chan’s so cute.”

Tsukimi liked to look at cute girls.

She said that just being there will be healing and energizing for tomorrow.

“Call Arata-san home. I’ll serve you.”

“Is it okay?”

Nene listens to the sudden suggestion.

I am happy to receive their service.

Then it won’t be a burden on Arata-san, and he will come without hesitation.

Nene had a common sense of money and consideration for others.

“Yeah, I’d like to see who Nene-chan is going to fall in love with.”

“Thank you, manager. But I don’t fall in love, I’m embarrassed…”

“Ahaha, you’re a beginner. That’s cute. Besides, when I see Nene-chan working in this outfit, I can’t believe any man.”

“I-is that so?”

“Yes! You can be confident.”

Then Nene finished her part-time job while being teased by the store manager.

◇◆◇

After finishing her part-time job, Nene came home and was lying on the bed after getting ready to go to bed.

Today I met Miyoshi-san, Arata-san’s former boss.

I now call her Yui-san.

Yui-san asked me a question about the problem that I had been procrastinating about.

I thought someone would tell me one day, and that was the timing.

There was no intention of blaming me, but I could feel her concern for Arata-san.

I could see that she had the same feeling as Nene.

So she answered exactly, without making any mistakes.

Then, while Arata-san was on the intercom, I remembered a conversation with Yui-san.

‘It was thanks to Nene-chan, that he looked more energetic than I expected when I saw Arata-kun’s face.’

‘I wonder if that’s the case…’

‘I’m sure it is. It’s really cute that you’ve been working hard on cooking Arata-kun and he has come to life. I’m glad you’re here, though I’m late to run to America.’

―Thank you.

At that time, I thought she was a kind-hearted person who could wish for the happiness of the person she liked, even if she couldn’t be around.

So I did not pursue Arata-kun casually and continuously called and praised him.

Yui-san went on,

‘But I didn’t give up.’

She said, nailing it.

After that, we got along well and became friends.

I was a little angry when Yui-san showed me a selfie with Arata-san, who I took last night like a child.

Arata-san, who was red after drinking and his eyes were glazed, was so cute that I couldn’t help but feel that way.

Nene also showed Arata-san wearing various clothes, taking selfies, and taking selfies.

It was interesting to see that Yui-san, who was constantly muttering that she was too handsome or precious, was not a big boss at all.

Then we went off the rails and became a girl talk.
