Chapter 21: 21

“Thank you for waiting.”

Kaede came out of the locker room after changing into her uniform with her hair tied up in a ponytail. With her hair and her good looks, there was no way she wouldn’t look good in the uniform.

“How is it?”

“Ah, it suits you.”

“Really! Yay…”

Seeing Kaede smiling happily as she said that, I thought she really is cute.

However, since this was a part-time job and not my house, I braced myself.

First of all, I asked her to practice serving customers. I, as her senpai, taught her how to speak, use language, take the menus etc. from scratch….

I would like to say that Kaede was much better than me when it came to language, and cleaning was a piece of cake for her since she did it at home. She also learned how to take the menu almost immediately.

The rest was almost perfect, except that her voice needed to be a little stronger.

“Well then, go ahead and clean up the empty seats.”

“I understand!”

Kaede replied cheerfully and wiped the empty tables with a cloth.

I was not in a position to watch her work in a carefree manner.

The number of customers gradually increased as lunchtime approached.

“Ren-chan, Kaede-chan, order, please!”

“Understood”

“Yeah…”

“Kaede, it’s sudden but are you ready for the real thing?” I asked her,

“I-I’ll be fine!”

Kaede’s lips were quivering, her natural smile that she had shown earlier was gone, replaced by an awkwardly forced smile.

I was a little relieved to know that Angel was also human, after all. No one was perfect at everything.

“If there’s any trouble, I’ll be there, and if you just do what I taught you, you’ll be fine.”

“Y-yes….”

“Also, you’re a lot more adorable with a smile on your face.”

“….Eh? What did you just….?”

“Eh? That a smile is more ….”

“Ren-chan!!”

When the manager called for help, I immediately rushed over. At that time, I caught a glimpse of Kaede’s face, which seemed to be red.

“It’s unfair to be able to say that without feeling shy… Mou~~”

◇◇◇◇◇◇

Gradually, we got through the rush hour, and in a few moments, it was time to go home.

“Ren-kun! Order, please!”

The one who was waving while calling out to me in a loud voice was a regular customer who was a university student.

For some reason, she liked me.

“This is my first time at this restaurant, do you have any recommendations?”

(T/N: Here she is just playing with him and asking that)

“Let’s see… do you like sweet things?”

If it is their first time here, the first thing to do is to know their tastes, and try not to serve things they don’t like.

“Um… I’m not good with sweets.”

“Well, how about this blended coffee, our pancakes are sweet, but the blended coffee is a little bitter, so I think it will be just the right amount of sweetness.”

“Okay, I’ll go with that…”

I said “Understood” , and went to tell the manager. Next to the manager was Kaede.

She seemed to be talking with the manager about something.

“Ren-chan, you’re popular, aren’t you? Especially with Onee-sans, who often talk to you.”

“I-Is that so…” Kaede muttered,

“Mou~! It’s so cute seeing her a little jealous!”

“I’m not jealous!”

“Kaede-chan, you like Ren-chan, don’t you?”

“Ehh! That’s…”

“Ufufuf, you do.”

The manager suddenly said, “Ah, The Youth! I love it!” as he brewed coffee.

When Kaede saw me, she blushed and ran to the back of the room.

I was naturally confused. The manager was annoying and Kaede ran away from me…What is this? What’s with today?

When I told the manager the order, he said he understood and looked at me with a smirk.

“What is it?”

“Ahh it’s nothing, Take good care of her, okay? It’s not easy to find such a cute and nice girl like Kaede-chan, you know?”

“What’s this all of a sudden …?”

Then, he said loudly, “I’ll be rooting for you, Kaede-chan!” and started brewing coffee again.

I went to the break room to go home with Kaede after work, but she wasn’t there.

Thinking that she was probably still changing in the locker room, I rushed into the locker room to change as well.

When she changed and left the changing room, she was back in her plain clothes. For some reason, I was a little disappointed, or rather, I wanted to enjoy seeing her in the uniform a little more.

“I’m sorry I ran away from you earlier.”

“No, I don’t really mind.”

“Is that so…if that’s the case, then it’s fine.”

“Then let’s go home.”

When I said this, her cheeks were slightly reddish, but she said, “Yes,” and smiled at me.

One thing I learned was that no matter where she was, the Angel’s smile captivated the people around her.

Just by smiling, the Angel attracted the attention of people around the restaurant.
