A Certain Maid Of Honor And Luna.
It was the end of the second period and the 15-minute break time.
There was a girl who opened the door of the library quickly to save a little time.
Without showing any signs of hesitation, she went to the counter where the librarian was and called out to her.
“Um, is Luna-sama at school today?”
“Yes, she is. Yes, she is upstairs in the reading area.”
“Thank you very much. Then please excuse me.”
She bowed her head, thanked the librarian, and walked quickly up the stairs.
“…”
And then, it came into her view.
She saw Luna quietly reading a book in the upstairs reading space.
She turned the pages with sleepy eyes, with an air that drew no one in.
‘Don’t interrupt me.’
The girl felt such an atmosphere directly and involuntarily stopped moving, a puzzled look on her face, but the situation was soon relaxed.
Sensing the presence of someone, Luna slowly looked up to see the approaching girl. She then stood up, tucking a four-leaf bookmark into her book.
A very unusual behavior if anyone knew her… but she was that interested in the person who came to visit her.
Luna’s own voice dispelled this stiff atmosphere.
“Hello. You must be Shea.”
“Y-yes! I’m sorry for interrupting you while you’re reading… Luna-sama.”
“No.”
“I don’t mind,” she said with a small shake of her head, and made eye contact again.
“Uhm… that day before yesterday, Beret-sama was in your care. I hope you were not bothered by the fact that he stayed with you later than planned?”
“Yes, I was not bothered by it.”
“I am glad to hear that. Beret-sama said, ‘I had a great time!'”
“I-I see…”
Luna’s tone of voice rose just a little when she heard it.
This kind of feedback was several times more heartwarming when you heard it from a third party than when she heard it from the person in question. It made her happy.
“Um, would you like to sit down?”
“No, thank you.”
“I see. Then you must be in a hurry.”
They were still in the greeting phase. Suppressing her excitement, she asked for the main topic of conversation.
“I know you are pressed for time, you can come here anytime you want.”
“Thank you for your concern. Th-then… Luna-sama.”
“Yes.”
As soon as she replied, Shea, with a look in her eyes, spoke with a deep bow.
“I really thank you for the day before yesterday!”
“…Though I didn’t do anything that day that you could thank me for. I’m late in saying this, but I’m the one who’s been indebted to you.”
Hearing that it was the day before yesterday, Luna immediately thought of her date with Beret and immediately responded.
“I would like to thank you personally. During your date, I heard that Luna-sama told Beret-sama a lot of things about me!”
“About that? I hope there was no inconvenience to you. I told him without your permission.”
“No, no! Beret-sama gave me a lot of compliments.”
“I’m glad to hear that.”
“Yes! Beret-sama also patted me on the head, thanks to you… Luna-sama. He also gave me this hair clip and this necklace as gifts…! Eheheh.”
“….”
Shea, with a big smile on her face, showed off the hair clip and necklace. Luna felt like Shea tried to pick up a fight with her without any malice.
No wonder Luna was so tight-lipped.
Luna got a gift as well as she did, but she didn’t get a pat on the head.
What sprouted was a feeling of envy.
She tried to compliment Shea by saying, ‘It’s because you put in the effort every day,’ but she couldn’t say it anymore.
Just looking at her happy expressions, her gloomy meter went up.
“…Shea-san.”
“Yes?”
“Let me tell you, I also received a gift from him. A very nice one.”
“Really!?”
“Hmm.”
Luna was the kind of person who bought a fight when she was offered one.
‘You be sad now, too,’ such was the counterattack—but.
“Wow, that is really nice.”
“…”
It did not go as expected.
She clasped her hands together and continued to speak with a sparkling smile on her face.
“Beret-sama has been working on a lot of plans in his home, so may I report to him that you are enjoying your gift? He will be very happy!”
“…Uh-uhmm. Please don’t tell him. It’s embarrassing.”
It was actually not Shea’s original intention to incite jealousy.
She was countered from unexpected directions.
Luna, who was completely beaten, was left with sadness from the fact that ‘she was the only one who got a pat on the head…’. She took the initiative to prevent her from returning back with the ‘Report.’.
“Is that all you wanted to say, Shea-san?”
“Yes. I was able to express my thanks to you.”
“…I see. I know you move around a lot, so be careful not to lose your necklace. Maintenance is important.”
“Thank you very much. Ehehe.”
“…”
She had the top overall grade in her class of maidservants.
Don’t let her looks fool you.
If I were as pretty as she is, would he have patted me on the head?
“W-well, then, I must take my leave!”
“…Um, Shea-san. Also.”
“Yes!?”
“I’d like to hear you bragging about your master next time. I’m interested to know, that’s why.”
“Is that so! Then, there’s one. It was only yesterday!!”
“…Some other day is fine too…You’ll be late for your next class.”
“Ah, I’m sorry! Please excuse me.”
Quickly checking her watch, Shea bowed and then quickly disappeared like a shadow.
Then, the quiet space reappeared.
“…Terrifying, she is.”
The careless look on her face when she talked about Beret. The clunkiness that only appeared when the topic was discussed.
The serious expression on her face when she was about to be late, and her fast moving speed while maintaining her elegance.
Can a human being change so much?
After such a shocking experience, Luna took a breath and sat back in her chair.
“Well… which page have I read through?”
After that, she took the bookmark that she showed off to Shea earlier, and a voice of regret leaked into the library.
