「Welco male customers who entered were immediately addressed by a voice The voice ca voice that didn't lose to the bell's chiaze to there due to the lure of the voice, there was a stunning beautiful girl there It was a blonde haired and blue eyed girl wearing a cute apron Her luxuriant hair was tied on the back using a largish frilly ribbon
Looking froo on the apron, the silver tray in one hand, and the plate placed on the other hand, it was obvious frouest I will guide you to your seat right after this, so can I please ask you to wait for a bit?」
「「Ah, yes」」
The two male customers replied in a beautiful hargered
The waitress advanced sht footsteps and she set down the cooking she carried with a ance somewhat The two fe in a daze at the waitress
After that the waitress once ly beautiful bow and s flower at the two female customers who unconsciously returned the bow The two feh
The waitress returned back toward the two ently fro you wait S seat, which one will be your preference?」
「E, either is fine」
「Me, me too」
The two h they were being lured by the constant slued on the waitress as going to bring some water and wet towel
They were handed thewaitress She said「Please callto withdraw, but one man reflexively called out
「He, hey Before this, you weren't working here right?」
It was a sudden question, but the waitress that guessed this costuone to this restaurant before this nodded briefly
「Yes I worked part-time here just recently――I'm called Liliana If I can become the acquaintance of you honored custoreat」
She cutely s the tip of her skirt That gesture swiftly shot through the twoThe way how at the end of her sentence her polite language broke down slightly, it caused a sense of familiarity to well up inside the two male customers
「I super will become your acquaintance」
「Rather already we are become your acquaintance」
The Japanese of the two male customers crumbled
After that, there was a profoundlywhen Liliana came to take their order, for sos that they didn't feel like ordering were ordered following Liliana's recommendation The two looked like they were satisfied on the whole
「Yuuka-san, I bring more order Please take care of it」
「Yes ye~s」
The chef ielding the frying pan inside the kitchen――Sonobe Yuuka replied back lightly
It see She beautifully served the content of the fry pan on the plate and she faced toward the counter with the plate in one hand
She earing a pure white chef coat and a crimson scarf on her neck The limp beret on her head was also crimson colored
At her student days, she had serious character but her appearance was showy, so she gave an iht now she was a splendid war potential of the western restaurant that was ed by her faeneration of this restaurant in the future
It was only her dyed chestnut colored hair that didn't change, but the atmosphere she was clad in was somehow mature and kind The look of her eyes that should be called as sharp if it had to be said, also seely looked like they had softened Naturally those factors also dragged up her char by several tiular customers who frequently visited this western restaurant【Wisteria】ai at the beautiful chef Also this restaurant was established just a bit before Yuuka was born, so it had already welcomed its twenty year anniversary, there were also a lot of veteran custorowth of Yuuka who often helped since she was small
「Yes, this is Kuban-san's meat pie, take it please So, the next order is……」
Yuuka looked at the order tag she received from Liliana and her eyes blinked repeatedly And then, she leaned out her body from the kitchen counter and took a look at the table where Liliana had taken the order just now
Over there were two youngonce more No matter how she looked there was order for about six people written there
「……Since Liliana worked here, the custo eater huh」
「Yes, Japanese people are all gor and sent an unblinking stare at Liliana, but then she sighed seeing Liliana putting a friendly s any, so it's not a problem but……be careful to not make them force themselves too much okay」
「Please leave it to h where is the limit I'll use every method available and make the sales and repeater to be double the last month I'll bet on my honor as a former princess!」
「It's fine even if you don't bet that Anyway cal Liliana whose nose breathed roughly with overflowingwryly
「Now then, it will be the time soon when the custo spirit I think it will be fine because Otou-san and Okaa-san will also return back soon, but until then spare me from the amount of order that I cannot deal with alone okay?」
「It's fine I have finished grasping Yuuka-san's ability I will take order in the ae!」
「Ah, yep ――This, rather than being a rehabilitation for Liliana, isn't this actually a trial forthe ive it to the custo her back
After that, the two parents of Yuka returned from their business and the nu Liliana whofro wave then clocked out when it was time for her to depart for another part-time work
After that, everyone of Sonobe fa dead tired
The customers also became sparse and after about an hour when it beca the bell rang
「Welco――wait, what, isn't this Nagu the cash register's sales slip Just as she said, ahead of her gaze there was Haji a customer」
Haji on the seat at the edge of the counter with a practiced movement That spot was tacitly a reserved seat for Hajiular customer
Since the party of the one year anniversary of returning ho and coffee and also because of the friendly atement ere his classmate and her family sometimes visited now and then
The other classh school they would aiathered for ather in Yuuka's restaurant, so this place beca-out place for the another world suh, Haji because for soraceful i to hishis fah most times when he was here he would be with one or more of his wives, yet why he was still evaluated like that…… It was so for Hajime
And then, those wives ere mostly with hi at Yuuka with a fixed gaze, just as it……
When Hajime sat down, Yuuka's father that replaced her to cook in the kitchen――Hiroshi, and Yuuka'svery happy
Haji and then Yuuka who left behind the sales slips asked hi to eat? It's rare for you to co dinner already I came here just to drink coffee a bit and also ask about how our part-ti」
「Aa, I see」
When Yuuka turned her gaze to her father, Hiroshi nodded as though to say「I don'tthe sales slip For so a thumb up at Yuuka while she was at it
Yuuka asked while pretending to not see her mother as like that
「You are okay with blend coffee?」
「Ou Or rather, you are the oneit?」
Hajih Yuuka had beco, she shouldn't have been entrusted withface, Yuuka showed a bit of a triu the coffee
「Yesterday I finally got the okay I also took the barista qualification already This is more or less the first blend that I will serve to a custo attitude huh」
A wry se between Hajime and Yuuka was very relaxed with each other froh several years This was related with the i to his mistress's place for an affair」, but the two of therant aro expression at the coffee that was presented to hiood it was And then, a beat later, he went「Oh」with his eyes snapped open in admiration And then without pause he took the second and then third gulp Froood work
Yuuka hted expression that was mixed with a little bit of relieve while she slouched forward a bit and rested her chin on her hand above the counter Her other hand was playing around with her cri it, one of her feet was tapping ton ton on the floor with her toes
「So? What is it that you want to ask? Lily is doing really well here though?」
「Is that so? She is a princess and she shouldn't have any experience in service trade, she doesn't becos because of that?」
「Nope, rather she is serving the custohborhood western restaurant She is elegant and refined――and it looks like there are already custo here for Lily」
「Just from teeks?」
「Yep, just froave advice for the ot the scale falling fro fun when she calculated how ot reduced」
「As expected fro consultation even though this is part-tied on Yuuka's lips with a chuckle seeing such Hajih Suddenly a call ca a former princess for part-time work』, what's with that Ilad that Lily came to work here」
「Is that so…… I too was really worried letting Lily go for part-time at a place I don't know about at all In that point, if it's Sonobe that I can trust you, and so I entrusted her here……it's great if her being here also benefited this place」
「……As always, you are overprotective toward your relative huh Today too you come directly here to expressly check on her」
Yuuka's expression turned into an exasperated one However, her fingertips were twirling and toying her cri of her foot became even more rhythmical ton, toton-
For so the sales slip was grinning broadly seeing such Yuuka
「Well, I can deny being overprotective but……I' to act unexpectedly, no, in a sense it's just as expected frouess Hey, Sonobe When she was in the , did Lily's atmosphere feel like she is unsatisfied so like that She was really in high spirits taking the order, she was scattering around courtesy so ? By any chance, did she say that working part-ti like that Rather she was saying that she is having fun」
Yuuka tilted her head at Hajime who spoke evasively
Hajime hesitated a little before he confirmed to Yuuka「I've told you the detail about why Lily is working part-tiht?」 When Yuuka nodded, Hajio, that Lily, she often didn't co that would be said by a no good husband who let her wife run away」
「Shut up And then When I tried asking what she is doing, it see to work part-ti business with your place She said the work is completely desk job」
「Eh? Is that so?」
That fact caused the eyes of Yuuka who didn't know that to turn round But, it appeared the story didn't stop there
「It seeuration of that supplier is probles to the supplier, she then got scouted by the person of that coh」
「He, hee I wonder since when it became like that」
「Yeah exactly But, even with that, it's unthinkable that she would be so busy that she needed to absent froe and beca but……」
「She is doing more part-ti like he got a headache Although it seeht of asking a bit to Yuuka, whether Liliana was feeling insufficient just working part-time in this restaurant
「You can just ask her directly」
「That girl is giving et the answer out of her forcefully And observing her with artifact willhusband, so I don't feel like doing that」
「Oh, really」
Haji really worried or perhaps overprotective, and yet for all that he behaved indecisively Yuuka replied curtly with an expression that looked disappointed to that
「In the end, what are you going to do? When she is working part-ti insufficient, she look like she is having quite sou? I don't know if the workaholic Lily will be able to restrain herself by doing that, but perhaps she will talk to you by her own initiative what part-tiht now」
「I, see Can I ask you to do that?」
「Yes yes It's fine, doing just thather hand Haji up
「My bad that I sounded like whining there I feel relaxed when I couess it's not just for show that you are the second generation owner of the place for relaxation that lured even the de except delicious western meal and coffee okay There also won't be any discount」
「Uh oh, that's unfortunate」
The two cracked jokes to each other Yuuka's scarf irled around sotoes were already like a tap dance
Hajioodby to Hiroshi and Yuuri and then exited the restaurant Yuuka saw hi the door and when she turned around, there were her two parents there with a truly nice s face
「……What?」
Yuuka asked with obvious wariness In respond, the gentle Yuuri,
「What to do, Hiroshi-san This daughter of us, her trait is completely a mistress」
「H, h~m But froh」
「Lo, look here! Just what are you two speaking about your daughter! I'ot not plan to enter that guy's harem!」
Yuuka howled However, the chain of events just nohere a man ives and kid unexpectedly showed up, then she treated hiave hi that this place was a restaurant, seen fro her parents who lightly deflected「We get it, we get it」toward her words of denial, Yuuka became especially displeased
However, it was natural that her words didn't have any persuasiveness
After all, Yuuka's toes tapping ton ton on the floor was her habit when she was in a good mood And furtherood mood, it would only come out if she also felt embarrassed at the same
In addition, there were the cri Actually those items had a lot of color variety, but Yuuka only had those ite the spare When she went to buy replaceain The saic power of a certain so around her scarf with her fingertips was a new habit that was formed in these several years It was an unconscious habit that ca with a certain so?」
