『Fu~n… then, you really don’t want to be an employee』(Shino)
『Uhmm, yes. Because I’m indebted to Satsuki-san, I will help out but it’s only that.』(Arge)
『I see. Too bad, and I thought that I would get another Imouto (little sister)…』(Shino)
Perhaps, that might be her true feeling. Shino-san exhaled smoke as she replied so.
She just came back to Satsuki Cafe and seemed to be interested in us, who are the volunteers. And today, she invited us to her room to have a private talk.
Her room is not so organized, the laundry is left as it is
I have the impression that her character is quite visible.
The unknown objects placed around here are probably souvenirs of the trip.
When I and Aoba-san faced Shino-san, I felt the smell of cigarettes.
『Aoba, right?… How about you?』(Shino)
『I have reigned as a queen. As for Arge-san, she belonged to me』(Aoba)
(T.N: Raw is “Arge was reserved for me” but I thought this way sounds better)
Aoba-san pulled me into her arms with her ivy.
Aoba, another reincarnator, was originally my relatives and she was very concerned about me.
She said that she will take care of me when everything is over. In fact, that must be true.
『Fu~n… very well then,
It seems there is no space for us to enter.
In that case, while you’re here just take it easy with us.
Other people will be happy and I’m glad, too』(Shino)
Shino-san smiled while smoking her cigarettes pipe.
The swaying smoke seemed to represent her upset mood.
Then, Shino-san talked to us while watching the smoke rising to the ceiling.
『Ah, the cigarette smoke is bad but I guarantee the taste of the drink, so please drink.』(Shino)
『Yes, Itadakimasu (Bon appetit)』(Arge)
I sipped on the drink, it had a sweet taste and a deep flavor.
『…… Milk tea, isn’t it?』(Arge)
『I have good milk and tea leaves.
I’m confident in drinks other than coffee, you know?
I have sugar over there, you can adjust the taste to your liking.』(Shino)
It’s certainly delicious as she says.
While the sweetness and mellowness of the milk bring out the aroma of the tea leaves, the astringency is suppressed.
It is easy to drink without sugar.
You need to be considerably skillful to produce a drink with such taste.
You must be very careful about temperature control, extraction time, tea and milk distribution.
『…such fine details work』(Aoba)
『Hahaha.
Even I’m kind of indifferent. I still help Satsuki out with the store’s work』(Shino)
While Shino-san laughs with Aoba-san’s replies, Aoba-san sips on her cup.
『Hmm, Mine is also delicious/tasty/sweet (umai)』(Aoba)
『The drink that Shino-san prepared is always delicious.』(Arge)
『Oh, I’m glad. If you like, you can always…』(Shino)
『~Wafu! there’s a nice smell (~n ~da~yo)!』(Kuro)
The door was opened without knocking.
It was Kuro-san, an employee of this shop with the Mofumofu ears and tail, she has entered the room energetically.
As Kuro-san comes in, she starts moving her nose to check the smell of the surroundings.
『There are no sweets!』(Kuro)
『What is the premise …?』(Aoba)
『~Wafu?
Because, if you have tea, there should be sweets as well, right?』(Kuro)
