Chapter 85 - Working Part-Time at the Company Where I Work 10 Years Later (2/2)
“You were so good… that’s frustrating… I’m even three months ahead of you…”
“Well, if you have anything you don’t understand, feel free to ask me, Senpai.”
“Dammit…!”
While pouting a little, Natsumi-chan returned to her own work, and began to speak, “Thank you for calling us.”
I was also waiting with the system on, but there weren’t very many calls coming in.
“Ummm, if you make this sort of call, it’s… a little troubling…”
Natsumi-chan was in trouble.
[Are you okay?] I handed her a note.
Natsumi-chan made a circle with her fingers, signaling an OK.
I thought that it might have been a claim, but the customer doesn’t seem to be impatient… I wonder what it is?
“… I’m going to hang up the phone, okay?”
With a strong tone, Natsumi-chan ended the call.
“A loafer… what are they doing coming to ask us, geez.”
There were a lot of women that would answer toll-free numbers, so sometimes there are perverts that call them just to tease them. Asking if they have boyfriends, complimenting them on their cute voice, or even asking for the color of their underwear.
“Was it okay?”
“Ah, yeah. Thank you for worrying.”
She didn’t seem to be shaken so there probably wasn’t any problems.
A call came from a customer to my system.
“Thank you for calling us. This is Sanada from the customer service center picking up the call.”
“Ah, finally! A-are you working hard?”
“…. Ah, haaah. I’m currently working hard.”
“Your voice, is just a little low. It sounds cool…
“Thank you…? What is the reason for your call, today may I ask?”
“Ummm… today for dinner… I was thinking of making hamburgers…”
“… Umm, did you happen to call the wrong number?”
“As expected, your voice is low and cool…”
“What is the reason for your call today?”
While thinking that it was a weird customer, I once again asked for their intentions.
“I was saying that I was thinking of making hamburgers for dinner today… However, I was wondering if you had anything you wanted to eat.”
“… No, there isn’t anything in particular…”
“Roger that ♡ Good luck with your work. This was your beloved Haruka-san ♪”
So it was you!?!?
“Ah, I forgot to say this, so don’t end it until—”
I forcefully cut the line.
“Why is she calling?”
“Was it possibly, Haru-chan?”
I nodded in reply to Natsumi-chan’s question.
“Since you guessed… the call that Natsumi-chan had earlier…”
“Yeah, from Haru-chan. She was curious about how Thief-kun was doing at work.”
The two of us sighed together at the idiot girlfriend Hiiragi-chan.
“Earlier as well, she was loitering around the floor so I chased her out. Because the eldest daughter of the family that normally doesn’t come showed up, everyone ends up being conscious of her. So she just got in the way of work.”
When it comes to Natsumi-chan, thanks to her frankness, no one around is really wary of her and are able to interact with her normally.
“I chased her out, and after I chased her out…”
“She then resorted to calling.”
“That’s right.”
Natsumi-chan was slightly mad.
Why do they have such different personalities when they are siblings?
Once the time to end work came around, Natsumi-chan found Hiiragi-chan as she was leaving and approached her.
“Haru-chan! Why did you call?”
“But, I wanted to hear Seiji-kun’s work voice…”
Towards Natsumi-chan’s angry look, Hiiragi-chan turned depressed.
“You can listen to that anytime, right?”
At that statement, Hiiragi-chan snapped back.
“Even if it’s still over the phone, his work voice is different from the voice he uses in private!”
Natsumi-chan’s logical argument was pushed back with Hiiragi-chan’s overwhelming passion.
Once the two of them left the floor, I was stopped by other people due to my instant success as a rookie.
“Ummmm, Sanada-kun, right? You’re amazing! You have experience?”
“Well, that’s how it is.”
“Thanks to you, there was less work and it became a lot easier! Thank you.”
“No no, I’m the one who’s in your care.”
The two people who called out to me, were people that I knew, and I was often in their care before my time leap. On this timeline, they haven’t done anything for me, so they made a confused expression.
“Well, anyways, continue on like this!”
“Yeah!”
‘Thanks for your hard work’, after giving my parting words to the people that are still working, I left the floor.
Was work supposed to be this fun? It was a fulfilling few hours. As I was immersing myself in my thoughts, I made my way towards the elevator when I heard Hiiragi-chan talking to Natsumi-chan.
“——If Natsumi also gets a boyfriend, you would understand! Seiji-kun is cool, so I get worried!”
“T-that’s true, today… I really did think he was cool.”
“Aaah, aaah! Just now! You meant that!”
“J-just be quiet already!”
“Fufu. Natsumi-chan should hurry and find a boyfriend like Seiji-kun.”
“Doing that would make me seem weirdly proactive… Then fine. I’ll date Thief-kun.”
“You can’t!”
“It was a joke. Don’t worry about it.”
“Mou, you’re a little sister and yet you’re teasing your older sister…!”
“What about it?”
“Muuuuu.”
The siblings were waiting for the elevator while having a mysterious fight.
