Vol 5 Chapter 6 (2/2)
[No, please . ]
I invited the proprietress into the room at once .
[Thank you, then let me replace it . Oh? This book… May I ask if this is the book that got really popular recently?]
The proprietress who noticed the book took it and held it in her hand for a while .
I talked about the book’s popularity whilst trying to remind her of the bedsheets . She didn’t react much and put the book back onto the desk .
[Yes, it seems so . I couldn’t read because I had no time but ……]
[Is that so!? You should read it by all means . ]
I somehow got really embarra.s.sed when I saw the appearance of the proprietress stripping off the bed sheet .
[I would like to read it if I have a chance . Well then, I shall take my leave . ]
The door closed and I was alone again .
When I looked out of the window by chance I saw the proprietress cleaning the front door?!?
I got puzzled when I heard a voice .
[Customer? I have the replacement sheet, may I come in? ]
[Didn’t you just leave a few moments ago?]
Not even ten seconds had pa.s.sed since she left .
I was at a loss to the proprietress who had come back at that speed .
[h.e.l.lo? I came to replace the bed sheet . ]
[Yes! I’ll open the door . ]
After I opened the door whilst being surprised the figure of the proprietress disappeared from the door . The proprietress exchanged the bed sheet without sparing the book a glance and a clean impression returned to the bed .
[Is something the matter? ]
[You’ve just left, right? ]
[Yes, I went out and came back? ]
[You were cleaning outside, right?]
[… I did . ]
[I’m here now, right?]
[… You are there . ]
[What’s going on… Huh? ]
It was very questionable .
As an answer to my confusion the proprietress put her index finger on her mouth and said
[It’s a secret ☆ ]
「…」
If the proprietress wouldn’t have been expressionless I might have completely fallen in love with her .
It was a appearance with such a destructive power .
[Well then, I shall take my leave . ]
After I had stiffened the proprietress left the room .
