My Maid Is the Most Beautiful Girl in School

＜Ep 76＞ Lunch

The road from Gangwon-dong to the cafeteria is quite long. On the way, I passed a few bakeries and sandwich shops on campus.

It’s funny to say it as you go, but the cafeteria on campus doesn’t have a very good reputation. I suggested that we meet somewhere other than the restaurant, but Si-eun shook her head.

“Actually, one more person was going to come.”

One more to come? I thought the two of us would have a meal together. It looked like they had a separate appointment.

“who?”

When asked briefly, Si-eun answered immediately.

“Sohye.”

“uh?”

An unexpected name popped up and I was startled.

Of course, there are only two people that Si-eun and I know at the same time. There’s only one person I’ve just met, so the chances are slim. If you think like that, you are left with only Sohye.

The surprising thing, however, was elsewhere.

“Are you two close?”

“Because we did a group project together once. It’s such a close relationship.”

“but.”

It is not that Si-eun had a lot of contact with So-hye. Maybe it’s just that me and Sohye are close.

Si-eun continued moving her feet without a break.

“But this time, the lecture overlapped. In the subject I just listened to.”

“okay?”

“yes. We met by chance, so I suggested that we have lunch together. So-hye stopped by for work, so I was the only one who came to pick you up.”

“Good.”

It’s Si-eun who was also jealous of the fact that she had contacted So-hye. It seems that it was not at all a lie to say that I was feeling grateful inside.

Isn’t Sohye the number one contributor to Si-eun and me? Being close friends is never a bad thing. Most of all, he’s one of my few acquaintances.

As he nodded in agreement, Si-eun continued.

“you… … Because I haven’t seen you in a long time. I thought it would be nice to have a short conversation while having a meal together. You should also make a promise to buy me a meal together.”

“It’s okay.”

Anyway, I had to call and schedule an appointment. If given the opportunity to talk face-to-face, I am only happy.

… … Or maybe they made an appointment for lunch so that they wouldn’t call each other?

Well, whatever, it doesn’t matter. After silently nodding her head, Si-eun added a word.

“You also told me we were going to get married.”

“To your friends?”

“no. Only for Sohye. They helped me a lot, so I thought it would be better to tell them in advance.”

“Well.”

It seems that we are not yet ready to tell everyone. But in our relationship, Sohye played a big role. It would have been better to inform Sohye of the result as soon as possible.

… … I don’t think I was warning you not to look over it.

can it be He smiled and stopped thinking. Instead, try another word.

“I told you too. to a friend.”

Si-eun squinted at me when I was lucky.

“Does the lectures overlap?”

“yes. I told you before the class started. Congratulations.”

“I’ll say thank you later.”

Si-eun spoke in a light tone. I said, “Okay then.” and agreed.

He even announced the news of the marriage to those around him. Now there was no more way to turn. Of course, I don’t even have a 1% desire to break up, but it makes me feel even more real.

Si-eun and I are getting married.

I thought I understood everything with my heart and my head. It still seemed to be lacking. On the day of the ceremony, you may feel a bit stunned while entering the hall with applause from everyone.

“We are really getting married.”

Si-eun smiled slightly at the somewhat sentimental remarks.

“I know.”

The short answer seemed to have a similar feeling to mine.

There are a lot of people in the cafeteria. The spacious space was crowded with students who had just started the new semester. I see some people with their messy hair stuffing them with rice, but they’re probably graduate students.

Corners such as Japanese, Korean, and Chinese food are lined up on both sides. As we were wandering about where we should go, someone came up to us in stride.

it was sohye

“senior! long time no see!”

Sohye smiles broadly and waves her hand. It is full of vitality as you have fully recharged your stamina during the vacation.

“hi.”

On the other hand, I had an almost exhausted battery. Even though I returned the weak greeting, Sohye smiled as if she didn’t care and stood near me.

Then he opens his mouth and looks at me.

“Senior, it’s been a while since I’ve seen you, and you look even better.”

“I’m dressed up a bit today.”

“is that so?”

Sohye tilted her head and asked. but what about this Si-eun’s cheeks behind you are getting bigger and bigger. I think you better stop talking about this.

When I closed my mouth and looked at Si-eun, Si-eun stood between us and said,

“Let’s order food and bring it to each other. There seems to be a table for three over there, so come over there.”

“yes!”

“okay.”

After that, we all dispersed in harmony.

Soon, all three of them were seated at the same table. I had rice bowls, Sohye on the other side was pork cutlet, and Si-eun sitting next to me had ramen and rice balls and gimbap.

Why? It seems that there are people who have a lot of sheep alone.

“Can I eat it all?”

When asked playfully, Si-eun frowned.

“You know, why ask?”

“but. If it’s a hat, tell me. I will also give you my rice bowl.”

“Don’t play around.”

“sorry.”

He smiled softly as he spoke in a tone that did not contain any regret. Then, Sohye, who was cutting the pork cutlet, opened her mouth with a smile.

“The two of you seem to have gotten on better during the vacation.”

“okay?”

“yes.”

Sohye put down her fork and knife and continued the story.

“Before vacation, there was still a little awkward feeling… … . Now they just look like a playful couple.”

“They’re actually a playful couple.”

“I’m not kidding.”

Si-eun next to him protested in a mournful voice, but he decided to ignore it.

“You must have done a lot during vacation.”

Whoops, whoops, Sohye added with a smile.

It was as he said. We had a lot of work and we spent a lot of time together. We made a wedding promise, set a wedding venue, and finished the meeting. Wouldn’t it be strange again if you were still awkward?

“I’m even planning a wedding. It has to be close.”

“is that so?”

“okay. Now they even sit in my room all day long. ‘Cause I’ve been like that for a few months It doesn’t make sense if there is still a sense of distance.”

“Wow, it looks like you two live in the same house.”

“… … Since we decided to get married, we live in the newlyweds’ house in advance. I used to live next door.”

“Ahaha. Is that so?”

Sohye laughed out loud as if telling me to listen.

I’m just sticking out my flippers. It was difficult to get back what was once taken away. The excuse of being the next door neighbor is now useless, and So-hye even found out about it early.

Si-eun, who suddenly drank ramen noodles, immediately wiped her mouth with a tissue and spoke.

“It’s just that you’re sitting in the room just to be together.”

“Anyway, it’s true that you’re still lying in my room.”

“If he only liked going out, would I have stayed in the room all the time?”

“It is, but… … .”

Watching our conversation, Sohye chuckled and laughed.

Then.

“Seunbae Si-eun seems to call Hwi-min ‘baby’?”

“ah.”

Si-eun covered her mouth with her palm and let out such a sound.

did you realize now I’m not used to calling myself ‘myself’ in front of others, so I’ve been avoiding cooking. Si-eun, who seemed reluctant, seemed to already have a name on her lips.

So-hye smiling openly and me raising the corners of my lips. The two look at Si-eun together.

Is it really shameful that I spit out a mistake that wasn’t a mistake? Si-eun dyed both cheeks red and fiddled with the cute points on the corners of her mouth.

He was pretty cute too. When she reached out to tap her head, Si-eun shook her head. I liked it at home. I do everything I hate because I am in front of other people.

“okay.”

After speaking like a timid, he put his hand away.

It’s almost lunch time. I had to finish my meal quickly for the next lecture. I quickly emptied the bowl. Both of them seemed to agree with me, and they both quietly began to focus on the meal.

Something came to mind when the bowl was almost empty.

He put down the spoon and opened his mouth.

“By the way, you decided to eat together last time, didn’t you? three of us.”

At my words, Sohye raised her head. Demi-glace sauce was on his lips. Si-eun saw it too, and immediately pulled out a tissue and gently wiped So-hye’s cheeks. He is one year older, yet he is treated like a child.

After Si-eun wiped off the sauce, So-hye answered.

“yes. You said you bought something expensive and delicious.”

“I didn’t.”

“Then will you buy me something cheap and tasteless?”

“It is not.”

Of course, I was willing to buy something expensive and delicious. I don’t know where would be better. After making an appointment, I will think about it gradually.

He looked at Sohye and asked.

“When are you free? It won’t be busy for a while after school starts, so let’s eat quickly.”

When the semester has just started, time is running out. There are few homework assignments and the exams are long. It’s not like vacation, but it’s a relaxing day. It would be better to cancel the appointment at this time.

Although it was said through such a thought circuit, Sohye tilted her head.

“Isn’t it really busy at the beginning of the semester? At the opening party, I have to have a drink with friends I haven’t seen in a long time. I have to go somewhere to play.”

“… … Is that so?”

I guess so. I didn’t know.

But Sohye smiled and added more words.

“Still, I’m making a promise to my seniors. You can take your time any time! I’m fine anytime!”

“really?”

“sure!”

Sohye nodded loudly.

Seeing that you’re willing to make time at any time, you’re probably going to follow what you set out to do.

Of course I didn’t have, didn’t, and won’t. He turned and looked at Si-eun.

“When are you okay?”

Si-eun looked at my phone screen at my question.

“I think I have a job at school. I want to avoid weekday evenings.”

“Then let’s have a weekend. How about Saturday evening?”

“like!”

“okay.”

So-hye and Si-eun each gave positive answers.

The appointment time is set for this Saturday evening. You can send the menu or detailed location to the group chat room later.

“I will figure out the details and let you know. Then, can I post it in the room I used for the group assignment?”

“yes!”

“okay.”

Both seemed to be fine. After the confirmation has been completed, the promise is confirmed. When I get home, I’ll look around various sites to find out about famous places.

As she was about to make up her mind, Sohye suddenly wandered.

“Why are you laughing?”

Sohye said, “Ahaha, I’m sorry.” and muttering.

“I miss the group project after a long time.”

“miss?”

“yes.”

Sohye explained with her eyes shining.

“At that time, the two of you didn’t get along very well. We also quarrel with each other. When Si-eun says something, Hwi-min often dies.”

“It did.”

It was the same thing I heard when I asked for a proposal consultation. Was it the story of the two of us during the group assignment and decided that we should connect with each other?

“Is that so?”

Si-eun tilted her head, wondering if she couldn’t remember or if she was going to smoke. So-hye smiles at Si-eun like that.

“yes. So it was more exciting. I thought Si-eun had a good relationship with everyone. He looked different in front of Hwimin-senpai.”

“I know.”

I also said a word.

To me, he was annoyed and yelled at me and was very upset. He was always smiling at school. It felt like that kindness didn’t work for me. It must have been frustrating for me to live together, but… … .

Seeing Si-eun like that, did So-hye decide to connect the two of us?

If Si-eun had treated me with a mask, our relationship would still be at the level of an employer and housekeeper. Looking back, it was terrifying.

He thanked Si-eun.

“Thank you for being annoyed then.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Nothing.”

Si-eun raised her eyebrows as if she did not understand the English language. It looks like you want an explanation, but it’s annoying, so I decided not to.

“The two of you get along really well.”

Looking at us like this, Sohye said in a whisper.

“okay?”

“Absolutely. Originally, people said that the opposite and the opposite fit well. Unlike Hwimin, Si-eun is energetic and knows how to take care of those around her. We have to get along well.”

“Well.”

Does it mean that I have no energy and can’t take care of the people around me? I don’t know how you know me so well.

“It looks good, how are you?”

When I tossed So-hye’s words, Si-eun snorted, “Heh,” he said.

“Not very good.”

In response to this, Sohye laughed and said, “Ahaha.”

“The way he hides his heart like this is different from that of his seniors.”

I also laughed and talked.

“I know.”

Then Si-eun put down the spoon aloud. His face looked fat as if he was dissatisfied.

With this cute sight in front of me, I and Sohye smiled for a while.
