When I Returned, a High School Romantic Comedy Began

20. maid (3)

“Hey, take it.”

“huh?”

School assembly time the day after hiring a maid.

After entering the class and flirting with my friends as usual, Chae-rin approached Joo-woon with both hands full of health food.

“Mom told me to bring it to you. It’s expensive, so eat it without leaving anything behind.”

“oh…”

After all, Chae Na-hee is a great actress.

Even when I was hospitalized, he visited me several times and repeatedly thanked me.

Even after I was discharged from the hospital, I occasionally sent gifts through my mother and often called her to ask how she was doing.

“But isn’t that too much?”

Jaune can only use one hand now.

I was able to use my strength quite well, but with my right hand sealed in a cast, it was difficult to take the mountain of gifts.

“You can just take a taxi.”

“Yes, but…”

My mom went to the university hospital today to get a checkup and said she wouldn’t arrive until late at night, so she won’t be home when I leave school.

‘It hasn’t been decided yet when my sister will come…’

In the end, the only one left was Lee Joo-un, a one-armed man who had to climb up to the second floor alone.

“I don’t think it would be difficult to take it since there is no one left at home.”

“… Then I can’t help it.”

After a brief pause, she takes the health food she handed over to him.

He looked slightly annoyed and spoke to Jaune in a blunt tone.

“I’ll take you home after school later, so let’s go together.”

“…Do you really need it?”

Seamless build-up.

A strategy that immediately came to mind after hearing from his mother yesterday that Jaune’s mother was going to the hospital today.

For her, who had felt an instinctive sense of crisis when she saw Lee Joo-woon trying to subtly push her away, this was an invaluable opportunity.

Chaerin immediately swiped her mother’s card and quickly bought all kinds of health foods.

Since I know no one is home, I naturally carry things.

Even Lee Joo-woon, who is like an iron wall, won’t be able to overcome you if you give him a little skinship in a house where it’s just the two of you.

‘It’s a bit weird to go to a man’s house alone… but he’s a patient.’

Chaerin said, putting her worries aside.

“It’s okay to take this back home, so I’ll just bring it to you.”

“hmm…”

She moves things to the house with me.

Of course, it was something he was grateful for, but he was a little hesitant to give an immediate answer.

‘Isn’t it okay to take him away and come back in the morning?’

It was arrogant that anyone would have thought that she chewed up the whole bowl of kimchi soup and swallowed it, but looking at Chaerin’s condition these days, it was cause for concern.

‘Just looking at him yesterday, he was so obsessed…’

I was a little reluctant because I thought that if I found out the location of the house, my obsession would become even stronger.

There was a time when I was wondering if I was worrying too much, but I was also confused about something and was wasting time.

Yuma, who had been quietly listening to Jaune and Chaerin’s conversation from the side, approached.

“Hey, I’ll get it for you.”

“uh? really?”

“Yes, I’ve been to your house, so I know the way.”

right. He came to my house.

Banjihara’s previous home was damp and not spacious enough that it was embarrassing to bring friends.

I never brought a friend because it was hard to show it to anyone, but there was just one person.

Yuma had been to our house before.

‘I was caught by this guy while I was working part time and we started talking and we ended up talking about all kinds of things.’

There was no other reason why I considered him my best friend.

The first friend I brought home to whom I told all about my family history that I had never told anyone before.

The reason he came up to me now and offered to carry my luggage home was clearly out of consideration for me.

‘Kid… I’m a little touched.’

A guy whose IQ drops to single digits whenever a love story comes up sometimes shows this quick-witted side.

‘Actually, it’s okay now.’

Still, I feel touched by Yuma’s warm friendship when he considers me like this.

Chae-rin frowned slightly at Yuma’s words and spoke to Yuma.

“I’m giving it to you, so you can’t ask someone else to do it.”

“are you okay. “You have to go to academy too.”

“Aren’t you from the same academy too?”

“Well, being a little late won’t be a problem.”

“Is it okay if I don’t go?”

hmm…

‘That’s bullsh*t.’

Every time the two exchanged words, the glares they gave each other became more intense, and I felt like there would be no end in sight if I left them alone, so I came to a neat conclusion to stop them.

“Just come, both of you.”

If we all come together in the first place, there won’t be any fights.

Yuma spoke softly, showing a slightly embarrassed expression as if the answer Jaune gave was unexpected.

“Are you okay?”

Concerns hidden in a tone that pretends to be indifferent.

There was no need to worry about that anyway, so I confidently told the two.

“Yes, I just moved, so it’s been a while since I came to visit.”

What I wanted to do most after moving.

At that time, I was so ashamed of the day in the semi-basement where I couldn’t even hand over the meager food.

I wanted to invite someone new someday to cover up the good memories.

‘This time, I have to feed him at least something delicious.’

Yuma smiled brightly when I told him that I had moved, and then he fell silently and eventually agreed.

Chaerin, who was listening next to her, also looked dissatisfied, but did not show any further fuss.

“… Well, if it’s okay with you.”

“Tsk… okay.”

The heated competition has finally come to an end peacefully, and all that’s left is to think about the delivered food to order at home.

Class went by quickly as I happily thought about what delicious food I would eat today.

‘But when does your sister start coming?’

If I were to come today, I would be slightly reluctant to bring a friend.

Even if you were a woman in her 40s, it would be difficult if it was discovered that your older sister, who was in her mid-20s, was working as a housekeeper at home.

Wouldn’t it be difficult not to find it strange that a high school boy and a young girl live in the same house?

Just by looking at her appearance, it was obvious that she was my younger sister.

“But he won’t come today…”

I went in yesterday, but will I come today?

Actually, even if I come, my mom will contact me anyway, so it won’t be a problem.

‘Let’s think about what to eat.’

I put aside my unnecessary worries and waited for the boring class to end.

‘Shall I tell you? But for what reason are you talking to me?’

After-school classroom.

An anxious heart pounded in White’s chest.

My eyes are looking forward, but my mind has long since gone somewhere else.

Today, I couldn’t even listen to the classes I normally took diligently.

I felt like I wanted to run to Joo-woon and go have fun with him right now, but like Chae-rin and Yuma, I didn’t have a suitable excuse.

‘It’s okay because it’s the day the librarian visits the library…’

The timing was right, but the preparation was not.

If I had been a little closer to him, I would have been able to approach him without hesitation.

However, she was not yet in a close relationship with Chae-rin, like her lifesaver.

However, we didn’t have a close relationship like Yuma, a close friend.

‘…’

A reality created by ambiguous distance.

That made Hayan even more thirsty.

Until yesterday, I thought I was the one protecting Jaune.

At times like this, I was very upset at not being able to talk naturally.

‘… But I can’t help it.’

All she can do is admit to herself that she cannot approach him yet and quickly pack her bag and go back.

He left school today, taking some consolation in the fact that he went to the cafeteria and then stopped by the library to avoid having to be served by Chae-rin.

As I left the school gate and returned home with a gloomy heart, my cell phone rang.

“hello?”

[White, can you check if there is a smart watch in my room?]

The person who called was her older sister, who finally ended her unemployed life as of yesterday.

Yesterday evening, after being kicked out by his mother while doing business as usual, he suddenly came home around midnight and started packing his bags this morning, saying he had found a job.

‘I’m the kind of girl who does what she does…’

When I entered the room following my sister’s instructions, the smartwatch had lost its owner and was standing alone at the desk.

Looking at his actions, it is clear that he has ability, but his clumsy personality is unavoidable, and he has a tendency to forget things easily at times.

“It’s here. “If you’re busy, can I bring it for you?”

[As expected, my little brother~ I will send you the location via message, so call me when you arrive.]

After I hung up the phone and checked the text message I received from my sister.

“It’s so close.”

The villa can be reached in just 10 minutes on foot.

I was getting hungry, so I left the house with the thought that I should give it to him quickly and eat something.

‘Everyone must have gone home by now.’

When I went home, I felt better, but when I started walking again, I started having negative thoughts.

Even though I tried to let it go by reminding myself that everything is okay, is it true that my true feelings are not okay?

I feel like the back of the head of the person walking right in front of me resembles Jaune…

“Jaune?”

“Uh, hello?”

While I was lost in thought for a moment, I thought I was mistaken when a familiar figure suddenly appeared on the back of my head.

Jaune and the other two also turned around when their name was called, feeling so realistic.

“What, you are the class president? “Where are you going?”

“Oh, I heard my sister left something behind.”

We happened to be walking the same path as them, so we continued to walk together, and even when we came to a fork in the road for the third time, we talked about how strange it was to walk in the same direction.

Even at that moment, I felt a little bitter thinking that one day we would be separated from each other.

Hayan, half excited and half sad, takes heavy steps and soon arrives at the villa and heads toward the entrance…

“You picked it up? Why here…”

“…”

Jaune’s face hardened as he followed in the same direction as him.

He asked Hayan in a calmer tone than usual.

“White, does your sister work here?”

“Yes, I said I would work as a housekeeper for a short time.”

“… I see.”

Jaune’s face, as hard as stone, never seemed to straighten.

He just stared at Hayan’s face without any response for a few seconds and then spoke softly.

“It’s a coincidence, this is my house too.”

“Eh? really?”

What a coincidence.

Even though I couldn’t go into his house, I felt good about the trivial fact that I came so close to his house.

‘Sister, nice!’

I didn’t know that my usually clumsy sister could help me in this way.

We all climbed the stairs together, thanking my sister for the unexpected harvest.

‘Room 202… Room 202…’

Hayan came up to the second floor and found the location she sent right in front of him.

When I turned on my cell phone in front of the door and called my sister, Jaune came up from behind.

“uh? Jaune?”

“…”

Joo-un naturally passes her by, opens the door lock, and enters the password.

For a moment, Hayan, who didn’t really understand what the situation was, looked at him blankly, and the door opened and a familiar, but comical voice mixed with nasal sounds that felt slightly unnatural was heard.

“Welcome~ Master…”

“…”

She froze when she saw Dasu standing beyond the front door.

A sight that no one can take their mouths off, and only the sound of the wind passing by hits my ears.

“sister?”

A deflated voice broke the silence.
