When I found out about the student council president's secret, she became my exclusive maid [Haitus] - Chapter 10 - The maid who looks really good even in plain clothes

Yuki Ohira, changed from her mini-skirt maid outfit to her regular clothes and returned to the front door, she appeared in a simple and boyish fashion, wearing a loose white T-shirt and denim pants. Her simple look was a stark change from her earlier appearance as a maid, but it suited her well. 

Her mere presence in the T-shirt and denim pants gave an illusion that she was wearing high-end brands, thanks to the good quality material of the clothes and effortless style that seemed to be the result of her hard work. 

I also wore a similar simple patterned shirt and jeans, but I couldn’t match her style.

“What is it? Staring won’t make my panties visible any more,” Ohira said, while being completely wary of my gaze. However, I was not that perverted to begin with… or maybe I am?

“No, no, I just think you look good in your regular clothes,” I said honestly. 

But contrary to my expectations, Ohira didn’t show a happy face at my sincere compliment and looked away.

“Compliments won’t get you anywhere.”

“Well, maybe a meal will.”

“Of course, it’s you who always says things like that,” Ohira said, showing a slightly annoyed face. “Come on, let’s go.” She then walked down the straight hallway on the 5th floor towards the elevator, aiming for room 501.

“Wait,” I said, following her. But she didn’t obey my command, looks like I will have to discipline this maid later.

I easily caught up with her as she was waiting for the elevator.

“Where are we going for grocery shopping?” 

The elevator button, which only had the ‘down’ button, was already pressed, emitting a yellow-orange light. Ohira answered while watching the numbers on the floor indicator that showed the elevator’s current location.

“Of course, the supermarket.”

“As you say.” 

With a wry smile in my heart, I wondered what a stupid question I asked to her which had an obvious answer and we boarded the elevator when it arrived at our floor.

“But, is it okay?”

“What do you mean?”

The subjectless question was returned with another question while she was pressing the button to the ground floor.

I asked the question again, adding details to the obvious question.

“I don’t know what people would say at school if they saw the popular student council president, shopping at the supermarket with a student who has barely any presence like me.”

Ohira Yuki is the popular student council president. The word “popular” would imply respect and affection, as well as romantic thoughts.

“Won’t it be bad if it’s revealed that you’re going shopping with your boyfriend or something?”

I have never heard of her being in a relationship with anyone. As far as I can see, she doesn’t have a boyfriend in school, but maybe she does have one.

“There’s nothing to worry about. Just being seen with you by someone from school won’t be that big of a problem.”

“Well… Ohira is a very popular girl, and there are many fans of yours, and there is also your nickname Fairy Queen Titania, so being with a man may cause rumors.”

“Could you stop calling me by that embarrassing nickname?”

“Don’t you like it? I think it’s a fitting nickname to match your beautiful silver hair.”

I am not teasing her. Those words were from my heart. I cannot see her expressions right now as I can only see her back, but I can see that Yuki Ohira is slightly clutching her long silver hair tightly.

“I don’t like this hair or that nickname either, so please don’t say anything about them again” she said with a voice that seemed angry and sad at the same time.

“I understand, I won’t say it again.”

I didn’t want to say things that other people dislike, so I obediently responded to her request and we soon arrived at the first floor.

She pressed the button for the elevator, indicating that she wanted me to go first, so I went out of the elevator first.

“Continuing from earlier,” she said, as she also got out of the elevator and arrived in the small lobby.

The lobby is too small to be called a lobby; it would be better described as a place with stairs, an elevator, and a mailbox.

“If someone with a curious nature asks, you can say that you just happened to run into me at the supermarket. There is no reason to tell the truth to others, as long as they don’t find out about the nature of our relationship, there won’t be any problems either.”

“Does that mean that you’re good at hiding things? Like working at a maid cafe in secret?” I asked curiously.

“What do you mean? Are you by any chance trying to know that I’m still hiding something?”

“I’m not thinking anything like that.”

“Without listening to her answer, I opened the door in the lobby of the apartment.

Yuki Ohira, who was still grumpy said, 

“And by the way, I don’t have a boyfriend.”

“That’s surprising. I thought that when you are this popular then you might have one or two boyfriends.”

“I don’t need a boyfriend because I’m busy. Hmph! Even if I had one, I wouldn’t become your exclusive maid and keep secrets from him.”

“Oh, I see.”

“It’s good that you understood.”

After leaving the apartment with a bitter remark, I was greeted with the cries of cicadas, which were getting weaker day by day. It was still hot as always even though the cries of cicadas were less.
