When I found out about the student council president's secret, she became my exclusive maid [Haitus] - Chapter 28 - A sudden visit

“Is it necessary for you to be so troubled?”

After school.

As always, Ohira Yuki, dressed in a maid outfit, came to my house. But this time her face was slumped on the kotatsu table, while she was holding her head with her hands.

“Ah… I hate my mental strength, which is like that of a microbe, for focusing so much on reading the atmosphere.”

Microbe…?

“I know that Ohira is serious about being a maid, but why not enjoy the opportunity and have some fun? It could be a good change of pace,” I suggested.

“Our levels are too different.”

“Huh?”

She spoke in a small voice, so I couldn’t hear her clearly and asked her to repeat herself.

“Our levels are too different. If a serious maid were to participate in the maid cafe at the cultural festival, it would be an unbeatable situation. The shop would be crowded, and there would be a long line in front of it. Masters and Young ladies would be dying from moe moe kyun death as they will seek a super maid like me.”

“Well, I can tell from seeing your skills every day that you’re on a different level. I can’t even refer to other maids in the same way.”

“That’s why I should have used my student council privileges to stop that from happening.”

“Wouldn’t it be unnatural to abuse your authority in such an exciting moment?” 

“… You’re right.”

Despite her words, she seemed dissatisfied as she sluggishly got up.

“Aren’t you going to wear a blazer soon, Morigami-kun?”

“Huh? Ah, yeah.”

Her sudden question threw me off, but I nodded anyway.

“I’ll iron it for you, so lend it to me.”

“Is that okay?”

“Of course. Since we’ve decided to dominate the cultural festival, I’ll take care of you as an appetizer before our ultimate victory.”

“Well, thank you.”

Anyway, it’s good that she’s motivated to do the maid cafe at the cultural festival.

I took out the blazer from the closet, which had been kept there ideally for a whole season, and handed it to her. It was a bit embarrassing to lend my blazer to a female classmate, but I’ll take it slide this time as she’ll iron it for me.

“Oh, Morigami-kun. You have a phone call.”

As I handed Ohira Yuki the blazer, my smartphone, which I had left on my desk, began to vibrate. The only people who called me were Shogo or Yoshiki. Everyone else usually called from unknown numbers, most likely telemarketing calls. I glanced at my phone’s screen, thinking it was one of those calls.

“Oh…”

Since the person who appeared was very different from what I expected, my voice unexpectedly leaked out.

“Is it Konoe-kun?”

Ohira also seemed to think that it was Shogo’s phone call, so I shook my head in denial and said,

“It’s my mother’s call.”

“Your mother. Please don’t mind me.”

“Yeah. Sorry about that.”

As I didn’t want to interrupt her in doing the house chores, I went out into the hallway.

I closed the door to my room and the door to the hallway, then pressed the call button on my smartphone.

“Hello.”

“Akira. How are you doing?”

Hearing her voice, which seemed like it had been a while since I last heard it, I felt a sense of relief and answered my mother.

“I’m good, I’m good. I haven’t been sick.”

“I see. That’s good to hear. Actually, I visited your school today because I had to talk with one of your teachers.”

“Huh? I haven’t done anything, though.”

“Hahaha! I know that. But since you’re living alone, the school is a bit worried and wants to make sure you’re doing okay. I also talked to Nekoshiba-sensei and just asked her how you’re doing.”

“Is that something they ask when you live alone?”

“Well, you’re still a child in some ways. Adults have to take care of you, you know.”

“I understand that.”

Living alone had made me fully aware that I wasn’t self-sufficient. If it weren’t for Ohira, I would still be living in a filthy apartment.

“So, since I came all this way, I am on my way to your apartment too. You’re not eating bad food, are you? I’ll make you dinner.”

“Oh, that’s really kind of you…”

I was about to finish my sentence, but I stopped abruptly and reflexively opened the door.

A maid in a mini-skirt was standing in front of me.

“Today is not a good day to visit, Mom…”

“Huh? Why? Is Sho-chan there?”

“Shogo isn’t here, it’s that the timing is not right.”

“Oh, I see. Are you with your girlfriend right now? Heh~ Akira is at that age too. You used to play only baseball all the time. Look at you, finally growing up like a normal boy now.”

“I don’t have a girlfriend.”

“It’s not a girlfriend, but you have someone else there, right? If you make friends other than Yoc-chan and Sho-chan, I have to introduce myself too.”

“No, if you come, there will be misunderstandings…”

**Ding-Dong**

It wasn’t the door chime for the apartment number being pressed, but for my own room.

“Fufu~ I’m already here”

“Damn…”

Looking at Ohira, I felt sorry for her, as she would be caught with my mother’s shenanigans.

“Sorry, my mom is already here.”

“Eh?! What should I do?”

“For now, I’ll make sure she doesn’t come in. Worst case, I’ll leave with my mom, so you can take the opportunity to leave the apartment.”

“U-understood.”

“Here’s the keys, just in case.”

“Y-yes.”

After conveying the simple plan and giving the keys to my apartment to Ohira, I walked down the hallway and opened the front door.

“Hey there, Akira!”

The one who opened the front door of my apartment was my mother, Misaki Morigami. As her son, it may sound strange, but she looks quite young. Nowadays, many parents look young because they take proper care of their skin, and my mother is also one of them. She tries to speak like a young person, but sometimes uses words that young people today don’t use oftenly because they were popular in the Heisei era when she was young. If I tell her they’re outdated, she would get sulky, so I try not to make fun of her too much.

“So, where’s Akira’s girlfriend?”

“I don’t have a girlfriend.”

“Eh? But earlier, you were talking about all sorts of misunderstandings…”

“That was just me trying to hide my erotic stuff that reflects my preferences.”

“You’re lying.”

She said it decisively, just like a great detective.

“Akira prefers to watch them on his smartphone, so having physical magazines is not true.”

“Ugh…”

As expected of my mother. She instantly sees through her son’s lies.

“Just introduce your girlfriend and be done with it. I won’t be mean. I’ll just ask you why she fell in love with someone like Akira, who only plays baseball.”

“She’s not my girlfriend, and even if she were, don’t say gross things like that!”

“It’s not gross! It’s girl talk!”

“Where’s the girl in that?!”

“Here!”

She pointed her thumb at herself and said it proudly. Haah… I can never win an argument against her. 

As I sighed, I heard Ohira’s voice from behind saying, “Misaki-san…?”

“Huh?”

When we turned around together, we saw Yuki Ohira, who was standing there with an amazed look on her face, while she was still dressed in a maid outfit.

“Oh, Yuki-chan?”

Mom called Ohira by her name, and Ohira opened her eyes wide and rushed over to us as if she couldn’t contain herself.

“Misaki-san!”

Then, Ohira hugged my mother like a child who had just met her long-lost mother.
