Chapter 10

Touma-kun Works Part-time

Translated by AmaLynne

 

Now, after successfully finishing my classes.

 

As usual, Shimizu is surrounded by everyone in class.

 

I quietly leave the classroom while I still can.

 

In case she asks me to go home with her, I don’t want to get in trouble…in many ways.

 

Besides, I have to hurry today.

 

I have a part-time shift today.

 

I leave school, take the train, and read a web novel on my phone.

 

It’s a good time, isn’t it? …I can read novels anywhere.

 

Furthermore, we even have portable game consoles that we can take with us…

 

I don’t take it to school, though.

 

My part-time job is within my regular pay range.

 

This way, it costs no money and I don’t have to waste time getting to and from work.

 

Plus, it’s right in front of the station.

 

It’s a little busier, but the pay is good and it’s a quick trip home.

 

I sometimes hear that there are people who travel up to an hour to get to their part-time job.

 

So-called “fashionable stores” in Tokyo.

 

It seems like a waste of time to me…

 

Well, it depends on each person.

 

I don’t deny it…so don’t deny that one either.

 

Ah, now that you mention it…I’m a Saitama resident, I live in Tokorozawa City.

 

It might be famous for being called…Dasaitama, or Ton○saitama.

 

Of course, I am proud to be a resident of Saitama.

 

The traffic is good and the minimum hourly wage is not low.

 

The roads are wide, and there are plenty of bookstores and game stores.

 

Above all, it’s nice and quiet.

 

I don’t like crowded and bustling places.

 

The school is in the Hanno area, so the trains are never crowded.

 

So I can read books at my leisure.

 

I also chose my school with that in mind.

 

Hmmm……I see that my plan was very flawless.

 

Then I was looking at the web novel I had followed in the morning, and in no time I was at the station I was getting off at.

 

Ummm…otherworldly fantasy is becoming more and more diverse.

 

It seems that Zamaa-kei is popularity these days.
TN

 

 

I prefer the royal road fantasy, but I guess that’s OK.

 

Stagnation means decline…If you like it, then good for you.

 

I enter through the back door of one of the stores, in front of the station.

 

「Manager, good morning.」

 

This man who I just greeted is the manager of this store.

 

His name is Masashi Noguchi.

He is a 38-year-old man, married with a child.

He looks like an ordinary old man.

He has a mild and gentle personality, but that is also his disadvantage.

He can’t speak too strongly to people.

He is a little chubby and his hair is thinning.

 

「Good morning, Touma-kun. You’re early again today.」

 

When I checked the time, it was 20 minutes before 5:00.

「No, no. I have to be in ten minutes before work.」

 

 My pride would not allow me to change my clothes after pressing the time card.

 

「As always, great job. I hope the other part-timers are the same way…」

 

「Maybe you should give them a good talking to once in a while?」

 

「Yes, but…if I tell them too much, they might quit…」

 

This is also a problem these days.

Many people quit as soon as they don’t get a shift on the weekends or if they get scolded.

 

I put my stuff in my locker and change into my uniform.

Then I press my time card.

 

「Oh, by the way, sorry I was off on Saturday and Sunday the other day.」

 

I’m usually off on the days when my favorites go on sale.

 

「No, no, not at all. I got a lot from Golden Week. I’d rather thank you. Thanks to you, I was able to do some family service.」

 

「I see. I’m glad to hear that. Well, I’m leaving now.」

 

「Yes, take care today, too.」

 

I went into the kitchen.

Yes, my part-time job is at a ramen restaurant.

It’s a little tough, but the pay is good, the ramen is delicious, and the food is free.

I tuck my hair into my bandana and take off the glasses I’ve been wearing.

 

「Tomono-san, good morning.」

 

「Oh, good morning.」

 

This is Tomono-san, the only employee.

He is about 180 tall and has a thin figure.

He is a very hard worker and very good at his job.

He is quiet and doesn’t talk much outside of work.

That makes me feel comfortable.

 

I walk through the kitchen and out into the hall.

This restaurant is closed on Tuesdays and open from 11:00 to 24:00.

And the restaurant closes once from 3:30 to 5:00.

The restaurant has three tables for four people.

Two tables for two.

There are eight counter-seats.

Well, most ramen shops in front of the station are about this size.

 

First, I washed my hands thoroughly.

After that, I take down the chairs and wipe the tables.

Then, I wipe down the counter.

Now, we are ready to go.

 

I have about five minutes before the restaurant opens.

My job is basically to work as a waiter.

I’ve been working here for a year, so I can cook as well.

Basically, it’s a three to four-person operation.

 

And I’d flip the close sign to open.

Finally, we are open for business.

Since I am a high school student, I work from 5:00 to 9:00 on weekdays.

I could do it until 10:00, but my sister is too picky.

I work about three shifts a week.

Then, it seems that a customer arrives at the store right away.

 

「Welcome, good evening.」

 

Without confirming the number of people, I show them to the counter.

Just one person, are you alone? I didn’t ask that.

Of course, I do check with my eyes.

And I have the manager’s permission.

Because I always think…no matter how I look at it, it’s alone.

Of course, I know that is a cliché in the hospitality industry.

But I don’t think it’s necessary when it’s obvious. I think.

 

Then I take the order and go about my business.

I’m used to it by now, so I don’t get confused.

I rarely make mistakes anymore.

Then, time passes, and when it is past 8:30, an incident occurs.

 

「Welcome…yes?」

 

「Eh!? Y-Yoshino-kun!」

 

There was Aya Shimizu with a boy of about elementary school age.

 

Haahh…what to do, there is no escape…
