"Yoko-san. This is Ruki, the guy I'm dating. No, the guy I'm going to marry." Rae introduced me to the maid. However, her tone wasn’t really that cheerful. Moreover, even when talked to, the maid, Yoko-san remained standing there with her back bent and head bowed.
She simply moved her head as acknowledgment before turning around and leading us in.
She didn’t even question why Rae brought me inside.
As for Rae, I noticed how her eyes got fixed on the woman’s back as she once again released a small sigh.
Having caught on to that, I couldn’t help but try to dig into its meaning, “That’s two times.”
“Hmm?” Not understanding what I meant by that, Rae was puzzled.
“You sighed two times since the gates opened. No, since you see Yoko-san bowing at us. I don’t mean to pry but as your worrywart boyfriend, I can’t resist.”
“I sighed? I didn’t notice…”
So that’s an unconscious reaction, huh? Is it because she didn’t want the maid to treat her as nothing more than her ‘master’?
