Possessed As the Butler of a Defeated Heroine 71

71 – One Footprint, Be Courageous and Walk

At that moment, I couldn’t help but be stunned.

“Is that a joke? Natsuki.”

“Hey…… That’s because I can’t say it’s a joke. Lately, I feel a little distant from Hana-chan.”

Isn’t that because when you go home, you play games all day and you fall asleep?

…… I was about to say

“Well, I don’t know.”

As soon as he opened his mouth deftly, Ryunosuke began to join his hands together.

“Please, Kim. I asked for a consultation because I thought you would know better…… “

This bastard, did you really eat something wrong?

‘Well, I can feel a sense of danger.’

Without Ohana, who made breakfast every day and woke him up, Ryunosuke must have felt uncomfortable.

Originally, it doesn’t seem obvious that they’re childhood friends, but when they’re gone, the difference is really noticeable.

There is a reason why childhood friends often appear in romantic comedies, even if they don’t seem to play a role.

By the way.

Didn’t you do well when you were there?

‘Ohana doesn’t look like that, though.’

I didn’t think it would change much just because I was told.

She didn’t intend to go into detail.

“Hmm, how about giving a gift of something like a ribbon or a hairpin or something in moderation?”

“Ribbons…… A hairpin?”

“Yes. Originally, girls like jewelry. Or how about something like a gouache bracelet on your wrist?”

“Oh… ….”

Ryunosuke was listening to me as he nodded his head.

From a guy’s point of view, he’ll have no choice but to listen carefully.

“Other than that?”

“Sure…… Until then, I don’t even know. Usually, I like it when you give me a gift, but more than that, hmm.”

As soon as he showed that he wasn’t sure, Ryunosuke sighed and said in a tone of regret.

“I can’t help it. I’m sorry, Mr. Kim. It would have been difficult.”

“No, what? With something like this.”

“Then let’s go first. Thanks for listening, Kim.”

“Natsuki, you should be careful too.”

Ryunosuke said goodbye to me and moved to his shopping street.

Looks like he’s going to buy some of the accessories I just mentioned.

“Now what?”

The schedule, which I thought would take a little longer, ended earlier than expected, leaving me with nothing to do.

“Should I go home early today?”

I haven’t been to the mansion early lately, so that’s fine.

‘Should I buy a gift for you as well as your spouse… ….’

With that thought in mind, I turned to the shopping street.

***

If you send Ryuunosuke to the shopping district and run into him, it’ll be a little awkward, so if possible, it’d be best to avoid places he’d go to.

Thought that way, Hyunjin pondered over where to go.

‘Pass the dessert.’

Anyway, Lionheart Mansion will have plenty of homemade desserts, but if you buy halfway commercial sweets, they won’t suit Amelia’s taste.

‘Come to think of it, I liked it when he bought me a hairpin.’

Thinking that he would be happy if he bought me something meaningful, Hyunjin pondered while walking through the shopping district.

‘I would do something if I had given a woman a proper present…… ‘

If you think about it, I do remember giving it to a woman as a gift.

When I was in school, my parents gave me carnations.

As I grow older, I get a little sad, but what can I do?

I didn’t have time to date after work.

I’m tired, but I don’t want to go outside, so naturally I just shut myself in my room and giggle while watching cartoons or anime.

Can you properly think about a normal gift…….

‘Really, what will I give you?’

Eating is enough. Actually, there are many good clothes, but if you give them as a gift, you should try them on.

The problem is things like clothing size.

This is because Hyunjin is well aware that it is rude to contact him right away and ask.

‘It’s kind of hard to go back empty-handed.’

Originally, a gift is meant to contain the heart of the person giving it, but there are things I want to keep the other person unaware of.

Hyunjin’s idea of a gift was that kind of person.

“I’ll have to look around a bit more, after all.”

Because the weather right now is also the weather. Above all, Amelia will not be familiar with Japanese culture.

‘Ah?’

This would be fine as a gift.

Thought so, Hyunjin walked around the inside of the shopping district.

***

“This should be enough.”

I never thought the day would come when I would be able to pay for this with my own money.

Hyunjin was in the middle of unchaining his bicycle to return to the mansion, muttering to himself, carrying a well-wrapped box.

“Ahhh…… Jin-chan?”

I bumped into Ohana by chance at the entrance of the shopping district.

“Ah, Hana-chan.”

“What’s going on in the shopping district?”

Ohana came over and asked in a whispering tone.

“Oh, I have something to live for.”

While saying that, I showed the gift box to Ohana.

“Hey…… It’s a gift. Who are you going to give it to?”

“Who is it?”

“Ria-chan by any chance?”

“Well, that’s right.”

“Can I ask what gift you bought?”

“It’s not difficult to tell.”

Saying that, she approached Ohana and whispered into her ear.

Then Ohana hit her back, blushing.

“It’s nice that you told me, but I was surprised that you suddenly approached me, Jin-chan…… !”

“Ahahahaha, did you? Sorry sorry.”

“Jin-chan and Cha-am…… Aren’t you careful?”

Ohana grumbled.

“What happened to Hana-chan in the shopping district?”

“Because of this.”

Then I saw her shopping cart in her hand and a green onion wrapped around her arm.

“It looks pretty heavy.”

“That’s right…… It’s been a long time since I came to see some groceries. Maybe it’s because I have a lot of emptying of the refrigerator.”

Ohana said, blushing slightly.

Maybe it’s because of me.

“Sorry, Hana-chan.”

Thinking so, Hyunjin stopped her from untying her bicycle chain and apologized while putting her hands together.

This is quite a habit, so it’s interesting.

“Eh? Ah, it’s not something Jin-chan should apologize for!”

Ohana showed her bewilderment, she said.

“But, I think it’s because I go to Hana-chan’s house so often that food consumption is quick, so it’s my fault.”

“Is that so?”

“I told you to tell me anytime if you are in trouble. Oh, that’s right. Because the load looks heavy…… Shall I ask you to come home?”

She invited her lightly, and Ohana hesitated for a moment before opening her mouth.

“Ah, yes. It would be nice if I could help…… Jin-chan, are you okay?”

“Uh…… Am I okay?”

Since it’s just a matter of bringing it home, there shouldn’t be any problems.

Above all, the luggage Ohana was carrying seemed difficult to carry alone.

A green onion would be enough, but the shopping cart Ohana was carrying seemed quite heavy.

Oddly enough, Ohana’s arms were shaking.

“Now, give it to me.”

“Eh?”

Hyunjin snatched the shopping cart that Ohana was holding.

Then, Ohana’s face turned red.

“Ji, Jin-chan?”

“It weighs a little. Wasn’t it heavy?”

“Ah, a little…… It was heavy though.”

“Didn’t you give it right away?”

“I wonder if Jin-chan has somewhere to go…… Lol.”

When Ohana laughed, she felt like an old man and wanted to crack a joke on her.

Thinking so, Hyunjin opened her mouth.

“When others see you, they will think you are newlyweds.”

“Eh, eh? Ehh??”

Ohana’s eyes widened. Her face was redder than before, colored like a blush.

“Gee, really! Jin-chan is stupid! You shouldn’t joke like that…… !”

“Sounds like a joke, Hana-chan?”

As if teasing her Ohana, her Hyunjin slowly approached her, and her Ohana turned red all the way to the top of her head and began to stutter her words.

“Eh, eh. Etto. So…….”

“Ahahahaha! It’s a joke, a joke. Let’s go back.”

As Hyunjin murmured, he unchained his bicycle and led the way.

“Jin-chan is such an idiot… ….”

After that, Ohana didn’t seem to hear what she said.

***

It was a ten to twenty-minute walk from the shopping district to Ohana’s house.

The reason why Hyunjin thought ‘this should be fine’ was because she thought that if she rode a bicycle on the street, she would be able to go back soon.

Let’s postpone the dinner invitation today.

“Hey, you know. Jin-chan.”

“Huh?”

“That gift. After all, are you giving it to Ria-chan?”

Ohana asked Hyunjin with a slightly sad expression.

Hyunjin looked at Ohana and opened her mouth after a little thought.

“Yeah, right? Why?”

“Ah! No big deal. Just…… I envy you, I want to.”

“Is this something to envy…… ?”

Hmm, next time I’ll try to buy Ohana’s too.

Thinking so, Hyunjin opened her mouth.

“If you don’t mind, I’ll buy you another present later.”

“Eh?”

“Money is not lacking.”

At Hyunjin’s words, Ohana thought.

‘Now is your chance…… Could it be?’

There was not much time for hesitation. The house was right in front of me, and it was only a few steps away.

“Hey, over there. Jin-chan!”

“You don’t have to raise your voice because I’m listening.”

Hyeonjin’s calm tone made Ohana think.

As expected, he is a kind and gentle person.

I keep comparing Ryunosuke and Hyunjin.

Hyunjin would personally take care of the burden, but Ryunosuke never really did that.

Thinking so, Ohana’s teeth started to tremble.

There, her hostility toward Amelia began to creep up.

Why did such a kind person only have to be yours?

That kind of thing is cowardly and unfair.

Let’s be a little more courageous here.

Ohana opened her mouth to Hyunjin.

“Yeah, so…… Jin-chan. If it’s okay, that is. Would you like to hang out with me this Sunday?”

Hyeonjin waited for her words, wondering what Ohana was going to say, but she froze at the sudden attack.
