Chapter 217: When are we changing how we address each other? (1/2)
They returned home after preparing for the next day, and Amane went to buy ingredients for dinner before heading home. For some reason, Mahiru welcomed him in a maid outfit.
“…Why are you wearing that.”
it was expected that they would bring their outfits home, given that they were responsible for what they loaned. Amane wondered why Mahiru was wearing it however, and narrowed his eyes.
One could say he was stupefied to see the strange sight of a maid appearing before him at home.
She said she wanted to head home earlier, and I expected her to plan something.
They usually returned home together, and on this day, Mahiru had Amane do the shopping while she went home. He was mystified by it, but he never expected her to welcome him in maid outfit.
Mahiru welcomed him home with the usual smile, dressed in the clothes he saw at school.
“I returned home to wash the clothes…it is not often that I get this chance, so I wore it.”
“Well, I guess people usually wear a maid outfit once in their lives, or not at all.”
They usually would not wear this unless it was for cosplay purpose.
He however never expected her to wear this, and was perturbed.
For the time being, he removed his shoes, got changed, and went to the living room. Mahiru was waiting for him there, preparing to serve tea. Her gestures were no different from a real maid, if one did not look at the interior decors of the room, and Amane felt unbearable.
“…So, how long are you going to remain dressed up like that?”
“Hm, until dinner is cooked? I have prepared the side dishes yesterday, so I have to do is to take them out of the fridge, or fry them.”
“I see.”
“…Is this, bad?”
Mahiru might be sensitive about how Amane looked bewildered, and lowered her eyebrows sadly as she observed him.
“Not that I don’t like this. I just can’t calm down.”
“Really? I do feel motivated to take care of you in this.”
“Take care…well, you’re taking care alright.”
“And, you will not touch me unless we are both alone.”
