Chapter 16: - June 13 (Saturday): Otozui's Feelings

After lunch in the park, Otozui and I went shopping.

Of course, it was for market research.

But when I saw Otozui enjoying herself while window shopping, it made me feel cheerful too.

一It was just Otonzui’s talent to naturally cheer up the people around her.

“We got a lot of data.”

“That’s right.”

June was the perfect time to research summer products because of the change of seasons.

In particular, the use of colors in the new products lined up in the stores would be very useful in creating posters.

It was also very useful for making posters, especially for explaining the use of colors in the new products in the shops, which would be more persuasive during presentations.

“Otozui is a hard worker.”

“Hmph! Please don’t treat me like a child!”

“Sorry.”

I was worried that the director was keeping an eye on her, but I was sure that Otonzui would be able to achieve good results.

All I could do was to give her support in any way I could, so that she could be successful.

Otozui paused for a moment, then turned gentle.

“But I can do my best because of you, Sasamiya-san.”

“Me?”

“In May, my work didn’t go well, and Sasamiya-san helped me out once.”

“Did I?”

“Un~. When I was about to quit the company, Sasamiya-san gave me encouragement, and it made me happy.”

When I tilted my head and wondered what she was talking about, Otozui continued.

“You said don’t give up, and that you’ll follow me. I was surprised that Sasamiya-san was such a passionate person.”

Ah, … That reminds me, there was such a thing.

It was in early May, right after the holidays.

On my way to work, I once received a message from Otozui saying that she wanted to quit the company.

Surprised, I hurriedly got off the train and tried to stop her.

I was frustrated with the director who was harassing Otozui, and I didn’t want her to lose, so I got amped up.

But …, well, … That’s right.

It was a shame that a mere layman would try so hard to persuade a junior employee not to quit.

I’d rather have it erased as black history …….

Come to think of it, the station I got off at that time was in front of Seijyo Gakuin Station.

If Yuika had seen me, I would have been in teasing hell right now.

“… That time, … ah. … Well. I did something that was out of character.”

“But thanks to Sasamiya-san, I was able to give it another try.”

She could be a bit overzealous, but she was straightforward.

If she didn’t have this kind of personality, I probably wouldn’t have gone this far.

I wanted to make sure she finished her training without a hitch.

“Next presentation. I hope it goes well.”

“Yes!”

Then Otozui walked around in front of me and folded her hands behind her back.

She took a step closer and asked me with an upward glance.

“Why are you working so hard for me, Sasamiya-san?”

I was flustered by the sudden question.

If I were to answer in a normal way, I would say that it was because as a senior, it was natural.

However, if I was a trainer for other juniors, I doubt I would go this far.

Today, I was working on my day off.

For a company employee, the value of a day off was tremendous.

But I was taking time out for Otozui.

Yes, …, I know.

I consider Otozui to be special.

As I told Yuika, there was a part of me that considered her as a woman.

If I were to approach her with my emotions, the warm-hearted Otozui might accept it.

But that would mean abandoning my duty as a trainer and destroying the pride I had built up in my work.

Above all, it might tarnish Otozui’s belief in her work.

If you really care about her, you should keep your feelings detached, and focus on your role.

“I just want to support you because you’re working hard, Otozui. I’m your trainer, you know.”

I swallowed the words that were about to come out of my mouth and said a safe line.

At the same time, I was also depressed that I didn’t say it.

Ha~. … I guess I’m a scumbag man at heart. …

However, Otozui said something unexpected.

“Well then. After the training period is over, can I work hard for you, Sasamiya-san?”





… What?

What does that line mean now?

Let’s see, … Normally, that would mean work hard, right?

But what does “for me” mean?

I’m your senior, but I’m not your boss.

Does it mean that you’re going to use the skills you’ve acquired during your training period?

Is it possible that Otozui also has a thing for me? Isn’t that what … is all about?

If that’s the case, all you have to do is just say you like me.

…Mou~u.

I don’t know, but this is not good!

If I became upset here, Otonsui might get disillusioned with me.

I don’t want that to happen, I have to avoid it somehow.

For now, I’ll just say a line that sounds like a good senior.

“Yeah. Of course.”

“Yes! I’ll do my very best!”

With a smile, Otozui clenched her fist and struck a cute pose.

Fu~. I think I’ve got it.

… probably.
