＜Episode 8＞ Maid clothes
“uh?”
Friday evening. Si-eun, who returned from school, exclaimed as if surprised.
The reason was simple.
“It looks like furniture has arrived.”
It was because the furniture I ordered had arrived without Si-eun.
Si-eun, who had a lecture until late in the afternoon, finished the installation. Of course, it wasn’t me, but the man who came with the furniture did it.
“Coming to think of it, I haven’t decided where to put it. So I just installed it in the right place. it’s okay?”
“yes. It looks fine.”
It does not seem to deviate much from the layout envisioned by Si-eun. It was fortunate.
After a while, Si-eun turned to me and opened her mouth.
“And in the first place, I’m only borrowing it for a while. It’s better to let the landlord do what he wants.”
“Well, it is.”
I don’t know if the expression borrowing is correct, but the house and furniture are mine. In principle, it would have been right to decide on my own.
Trying to accept that, Si-eun sat down on the new bed.
Si-eun was sitting, spreading her palms and pressing the mattress firmly.
“Pooh, it’s fluffy.”
He looked up at me with his twinkling eyes and said.
At first, Si-eun refused to sleep on the floor, but in the end, it is good for people to be comfortable. It is no different than Si-eun.
“If I was going to buy it anyway, I thought a good thing would be better, so I picked a good one.”
“Hmm, okay?”
Si-eun returned a vague answer, but seeing the reaction, I thought it was a good choice.
After that, for a while, Si-eun sat on the bed and repeated lying down, enjoying the softness.
The way he enjoyed the recoil was almost like a child running on a trampoline.
Soon after, Si-eun went through the dressing table, touched the chair, and even the desk, and then met my eyes.
His eyes were full of the usual dignifiedness.
“thank you.”
A little bit of regret can be read in Si-eun’s eyes expressing gratitude.
He was usually very angry and annoyed, but he seemed to be very timid when he received a favor. Even when we talked about furniture, it took me a long time to say thank you.
It hasn’t been a long time, but Si-eun is probably like this.
They want to receive only what they give, and they want only what they work for. Rather than being computational, he is the type of person who cannot live in debt.
However, this attitude makes me uncomfortable. He said while scratching his head, which didn’t even tickle.
“I’m borrowing it for a while. Don’t worry too much.”
“… … yes.”
At my words, Si-eun tilted her head and smiled. His face still had a bit of guilt, but it looked like there was nothing he could do about it.
uhm.
It seems that the atmosphere has softened, so now is the time to bring it out.
“Actually, ‘it’ arrived along with the furniture.”
Upon breaking the fortune like this, Si-eun said, “It?” I asked. It’s a face that doesn’t know English. I had the illusion that a question mark was floating next to my head.
To such Si-eun, I offered ‘it’.
“ruler.”
At the same time, Si-eun’s face was colored with astonishment.
“This… … .”
It deserves it. Because the stuff I brought in.
“Maid clothes?”
Because it was a maid outfit.
“yes.”
“Is it time to casually say yes?”
“Because it’s a maid outfit, you answered that it was a maid outfit.”
“No, that’s not it~”
Si-eun stretched her tail and became frustrated.
But this is the price for teasing me last week. I had no intention of taking it. You have to make fun of Si-eun in maid clothes to complete your revenge.
Si-eun’s face was instantly filled with complaints and complaints. The mood had just gone, with his brows furrowed and his lips pouting.
“Do I really have to wear it?”
“no?”
“Is that okay?”
“It might be good.”
“no!”
But life is not meant to be lived doing what you love. When she held out her maid clothes in front of Si-eun without saying a word, Si-eun almost cried with an expression on her face.
“Ugh, really.”
“How are you? I think it will suit you well.”
“shut up… … .”
Despite complaining like that, Si-eun finally accepted the maid outfit.
“Even if you ask about the size, it doesn’t seem like they will tell you, so I decided roughly on the public eye. I’m not going to wear it anyway. It doesn’t have to be a perfect fit.”
“okay… … .”
It was a reluctant answer. No, was it an answer? It is questionable even from the beginning that my words are heard. His eyes were already half dead.
In that state, Si-eun took a few deep breaths and opened her lips.
“I’m going to change, so please stay out for a while.”
“yes.”
He quietly got out of Si-eun’s room and closed the door. At the same time, a low sigh was heard from inside the room.
I didn’t know because I was always locked up in my room, but it seems that soundproofing is not thorough in this house. You better be careful.
Then came the sound of the rustling of cloth, the sound of zippers, and the sound of clothes falling to the floor. Then, “Ugh…” Along with the sound, the zipper sounded again.
“come in.”
Finally, Si-eun’s voice came out.
“I’ll go in.”
After answering that, I went into the room.
And there.
A long black dress, a brightly colored apron with frills, and a white headband adorning her hair.
Si-eun, whose face was dyed red, stood there.
“Ugh.”
“Don’t say anything like that.”
“Hmm.”
“Don’t blame me… … .”
It’s a crawling voice Seems quite shameful.
Surprisingly, the maid outfit suited Si-eun well. No, it’s not surprising. As I felt last time, clothes hangers are important. Anything Si-eun wears will look good.
Fortunately, the size of the clothes seemed to fit just right. The length of the dress was also appropriate, so I didn’t want to worry about the hem being pulled when I walked around.
“It suits you.”
He conveyed his feelings with the meaning of admiration. Perhaps even more embarrassed by this, Si-eun blew an unfamiliar sound and turned her head quickly.
Are you not used to compliments? The unusual reaction was very interesting.
“Really what is this… … .”
Si-eun muttered with a blushing face. It looked as if a small drop of water had formed in the side eyes that were glaring at me.
was a bit too much
Wouldn’t it be fun to see the reaction of a housekeeper you hired with money to wear a maid outfit? In a general sense, the situation had already crossed the line.
“Oh sorry.”
“This pervert.”
I apologized, but the criticism returned.
“It’s not a pervert. I have no desire to see things like this.”
“Because you’ve been enjoying yourself so much.”
“… … .”
There’s nothing I can do about it when you react like that. I decided to change the topic.
“So how are you? Do you like the clothes?”
“Do you think you’ll like it?”
“Maybe.”
“in the heart… … .”
Having said that, Si-eun looked at the mirror on the dressing table.
“… … It’s not very expensive.”
“What?”
“what. Why is the reaction unexpected after you ask?”
Si-eun snorted and snorted.
“Rather than liking it, it was surprisingly not bad. That’s it.”
“no. That alone is quite unexpected.”
“What did you think I would do?”
“I saw the possibility of tearing it up and throwing it away as soon as I received it.”
“Are you blatantly pushing it out with that?”
Si-eun, who gave a cold glance as if it was absurd, let out a sigh and continued speaking.
“I was even thinking about it.”
Then he bows his head and looks down at his maid outfit.
“If you think of this as a kind of gift. I thought I couldn’t tear it apart.”
it’s a gift
It wasn’t meant to be like that, but I think it came to Si-eun in that way.
They want to receive only what they give, and they want only what they work for. With this kind of personality, on the other hand, it must be a mindset that you should cherish what you receive.
“therefore? Are you telling me to keep wearing these clothes at home from now on?”
I shook my head at Si-eun’s question.
“no. It was just something I did.”
It was originally bought for the purpose of making fun of me. I have no intention of forcing you to wear it even if it is uncomfortable.
“You kept making fun of me, so I bought it on a whim.”
“You have a bad personality.”
“So I guess I don’t have any friends.”
“It’s okay to know.”
Si-eun burst out laughing. Both cheeks were still reddish, but he seemed to have found some stability.
“I think it suits them well.”
After sending her honest impressions once again, Si-eun let out an uh-huh. However, he quickly stretched out his chest and groaned.
“I’m good with anything.”
“… … uhm.”
Haha, this dignified appearance is much more merciful. He decided not to hide the bitter smile on his lips.
In that state, Si-eun began to think deeply about something. what are you thinking about After waiting quietly, Si-eun’s mouth opened.
“Well, shall we wear it at least one day a week?”
“really?”
“okay. I don’t get a chance to try on clothes like this. If you quit this job, you won’t be able to wear it at home, of course.”
Si-eun said while holding the ruffle of her clothes and turning left and right. Until recently, I was about to die because I was ashamed. When I calmed down and thought about it, the clothes might have looked very pretty.
Soon, Si-eun looked up at me with a deep smile.
“furthermore.”
“furthermore?”
“It looks good, you said before.”
“uh?”
I used to say things like that. But half-jokingly, I meant to make fun of it. Why is Si-eun making fun of me with that?
For some reason, it felt like the situation was reversed.
“No, it was just… … .”
“The maid clothes fit so well, I want to keep seeing them. Is this?”
After asking a question, without answering, Si-eun passed me by and stood in front of the door.
As I stared blankly at the scene, Si-eun’s face slowly turned towards me.
Then, with a playful smile on his face.
“Be careful not to fall for me.”
“what… … .”
“I’m going to prepare dinner.”
Si-eun immediately left the room as if she would not give an excuse.
Anyway, I feel like I’m living my life the way I want to. It didn’t seem like he was the type of person to be unilateral.
but what to do I’m the one who passed
Without a second thought, I followed Si-eun and left the room, and I sighed.
