Mayo Chiki!
It was 9.36pm in the evening. Since Ichigo-san took Suzutsuki to the hospital, it’s been around two hours.
“…Jirou, what should I do? What if something happened to the young lady…”
“Calm down, Konoe. First, we wait for Ichigo-san to contact us.”
“But…but…!”
“It’s fine, she’ll come back just fine.”
“T-That’s right, Subaru-sama, we’re talking about that Suzutsuki Kanade…”
We sat in the banquet hall, and as I was trying to console Konoe who still looked like she was close to breaking out in tears, Masamune came to support me. After Suzutsuki collapsed, we immediately had her brought to a nearby hospital. We considered calling an ambulance, but Ichigo-san said ‘It’d be faster to take her there by car’, so she took care of Suzutsuki.
In the end, Konoe and I were tasked to watch over the residence, and we forcefully called Masamune here while she was working. I feel like it would have been better if Konoe went with Ichigo-san, but she said ‘If something were to happen, it’ll be just you two newcomers, and I can’t rest easy with that’, so Konoe had no other choice but to wait here. Though, I feel like a big reason for that was to avoid Konoe creating a panic.
However, I can’t blame Konoe. After all, her master collapsed, right in front of her eyes. If I was her servant, someone living in the same house as her, I would have been much more shocked, for sure. Judging from what Ichigo-san’s guess was—namely anemia—Suzutsuki should be back on track soon enough, but getting checked out was always the safest choice.
“…Jirou?”
Konoe probably was unable to bear with the silence, as she called out to me with a worried voice.
“Do you have any idea?”
“Idea?”
“Was she acting off before she collapsed…or was there any sign of her collapsing…”
“………”
Konoe still must have felt awkward because of the kiss incident, as she constantly averted her gaze from me. Since I’m no doctor, I have no way of knowing how she’s really doing, but she mentioned that she was lacking sleep. Or more accurately, something inside of her was going on. She suddenly declared herself as the Yamitsuki-san, reaching the point where even Ichigo-san was worried. Suzutsuki said she was worrying about something. There’s way too many mysteries here.
Her sudden declaration as Yamitsuki-san, the sudden arrival of Masamune. Just why…did she invite her natural enemy Masamune here as a servant? And she now collapsed. If I didn’t know any better, I’d guess that she was just playing around again, but it sure didn’t look that way.
Judging from what Konoe said, the members of the Suzutsuki Family are receiving a medical investigation every year, so she probably did not catch any grave disease. Ichigo-san’s guess was probably accurate, and she just collapsed because of anemia. She probably didn’t take proper care of herself…or she couldn’t because she was too exhausted?
Unlike me and my gynophobia, this seemingly was the first time she passed out like this.
“…Sorry, I have no idea.”
“Stupid chicken, are you serious?”
“I am. I have no idea. What about you then?”
“…I don’t know either…” Masamune showed an apologetic expression.
“I see…” Konoe said.
…Damn it. Isn’t there any hint? I feel like we’re lacking the pieces for this puzzle. Isn’t there anybody else who knows Suzutsuki—
“Huh? What are you all doing here?” A childish voice reached my ears.
Looking over, there stood Kureha in her maid uniform. I see, we forgot to tell her what happened to Suzutsuki. She probably just got back.
“Nya, club practice turned out longer so I got home late. So, what is going on? What’s those gloomy faces for? Where’s Onee-sama?”
She must have guessed our gloomy atmosphere, as she raised one eyebrow.
“No, wait a second, Konoe.” I stopped the girl before she could explain the circumstances.
…That’s right, there’s Sakamachi Kureha. She calls Suzutsuki Kanade ‘Onee-sama’, so maybe she knows something? Something we don’t…
“Kureha, be honest with me.”
“Yeah, what’s up?” She tilted her head in confusion.
With Kureha, it’s better to just be honest and straightforward.
“Did you realize anything weird is going on with Suzutsuki lately?”
“With Onee-sama?”
“Yeah. Anything is fine. Her acting weird, or something like that…”
“Hm…” Kureha thought about it for a moment. “There is one thing that changed.”
“…! Really!?”
“Yeah. Though in fact…Nii-san, you haven’t realized?” Kureha said it like it was obvious.
Nice one, my little sister. I didn’t expect that, but I’ll gladly take it. Depending on your answer, I’ll become your punching bag later.
“Please tell us, Kureha-chan.” Konoe pleaded after listening to us.
“Eh…But, I don’t think I should be the one to say it…”
“Please, we need your help right now.”
“Konoe-senpai…” Probably because it was Konoe pressing Kureha, she gave in. “I understand. However, this is just my intuition, so remember that.” She said, while grabbing the hem of her skirt. “I feel like…Onee-sama has found someone she likes.”
“……What?”
Hearing Kureha’s words, my thoughts came to a stop all-together. Same goes for Konoe and Masamune. Suzutsuki Kanade…has someone she likes? I mean, she’s a high school student, and in the middle of her adolescence, so having a crush isn’t anything weird, but…
“Who’s that unlucky bastard?”
Being liked by that rich lady can only be hell. Konoe let out a bothered ‘Hmph’ but I ignored that. She probably was annoyed because I was bad mouthing her master, but let me say that. I know best how bothersome she can be. Imagine being her lover? She’d tease you every single day, making up nonsense.
“…Nii-san, you really don’t know?”
“Hell no I don’t.”
“……” Kureha grew awfully quiet.
Maybe it’s someone I know? Could it be…Konoe? She did say that Konoe was her first love. Though, that would feel like a forbidden love alright. Not to mention master and butler. But, who else?
“Well…” Kureha took a deep breath, and then looked at the three of us.
She spoke like it was an obvious truth, and yet what followed was—
“Doesn’t Onee-sama like you, Nii-san?”

“Calm down, Konoe. First, we wait for Ichigo-san to contact us.”
