"..."
After repeatedly ensuring that the call had ended, Hayasaka sat on the bed powerless, and her phone lay discarded beside her.
She, Hayasaka Ai, was a spy, a spy sent to Shinomiya Kaguya by Shinomiya Oko.
Since the first day she worked as a maid for Kaguya, she was responsible for monitoring her, and then reporting all of Kaguya's movements to Oko.
Friendships, things she didn't control, people she liked, things she didn't want to lose, failures caused by Kaguya, the way she was treated, what she didn't want to do, what interested her, what she valued...
She would report everything about Kaguya to Oko.
To ensure her family's survival in the Shinomiya family, there was no other way but to do this.
Therefore, every night after finishing her duties as a servant, she would report to Oko what Kaguya had done that day.
Except for some specific things, she basically reported everything.
But she never expected that the other party would take the initiative to call her before it was time to report.
He even asked Kaguya about the purpose of shopping today, and combined with his words that made Kaguya give up attending the fireworks show..
This made her very uncomfortable.
The bad feeling that had never happened before grew stronger in her heart.
If Shinomiya Oko really didn't want Shinomiya Kaguya to participate in the fireworks show...
Something would happen, something would definitely happen on the day of the fireworks show.
"No, we need to make some preparations first."
Shaking her head and encouraging herself, Hayasaka turned on the computer and investigated everything about the fireworks show.
The timing of the fireworks launch, the organizers, the geographical location, etc.
Although she didn't know if it would be useful, she had to do something to distract her attention.
Otherwise, she really didn't know what to do.
She really wanted Kaguya to participate in the fireworks show.
It was something Kaguya had been looking forward to for a long time.
In the past, Kaguya thought about the fireworks show, even yesterday she went to buy a yukata to attend the fireworks show.
Kaguya had never participated in a fireworks show before.
Every year when the fireworks show was held, Kaguya would secretly watch the entire fireworks show in front of her room window.
From that window, she could only see a little bit of the remaining fireworks, but even so, she still watched the whole show.
It was difficult to get a good opportunity this year, and she really wanted Kaguya to attend the fireworks show.
Instead of continuing to sit quietly in her room, in front of the window, and watching the fireworks like broken branches and willow trees like in previous years.
······
August 23rd, Wednesday, two days before the fireworks show.
7 a.m.
Hayasaka, wearing a maid outfit, came to Kaguya's room and knocked on the door gently.
Then she stood in front of the door and waited.
If Kaguya didn't respond, it meant she was still sleeping, then she would go in directly to wake Kaguya up.
"Please come in."
Kaguya's quick voice was heard from the room.
So, Hayasaka opened the door and entered.
"How are you? Does this yukata look good on me?"
Seeing Hayasaka appear, Kaguya, wearing a yukata with a red flower motif, turned around and asked her.
"Kaguya-sama, why are you wearing a yukata right now?"
Instead of answering that question, Hayasaka threw her own doubt.
"Because I want to ask Hayasaka to evaluate me. Yesterday Fujiwara-san and Moeha-san, I thought this yukata was good." Kaguya explained with a laugh, "I just didn't know what your opinion was about this yukata?"
Hayasaka, who was responsible for matching her outfits, if she thought it looked good then there was nothing wrong with this yukata.
To be able to see it up close, Kaguya kept turning around, showing off every detail of this yukata as much as possible.
"It's very beautiful. It suits you well, Kaguya-sama."
After examining it carefully, Hayasaka gave her own assessment.
"That's great."
After getting the answer she wanted, Kaguya looked even happier.
"I really want the fireworks show to come soon."
"There are still two days, please don't worry."
Seeing Kaguya looking so excited, complaining about irrelevant words like "this yukata is too short" and "I'm used to it", Hayasaka persuaded her with a smile.
Whatever happened, she would let Kaguya participate in the fireworks show.
······
At the same time, in heaven.
"With two days left, it's finally time for the fireworks show."
Crossing out today on the calendar with a pen, Gabriel said joyfully.
"Today has just begun, so there's no need to cross it out so early." Raphiel complained next to her.
Gabriel complained nonchalantly, "Anyway, today will soon be over, and it's not too late."
"Is that so? I don't know who's complaining about why time has been passing so slowly lately. Can we speed up to August 25th?"
Saying this, Raphiel looked at her with a smile.
"I also want to know who that person is."
Gabriel rolled her eyes guiltily.
Raphiel didn't think too much about this topic, but asked about something else, "By the way, Gab, have you prepared a yukata for the fireworks show?"
"Of course I'm ready." Gabriel answered without hesitation, "Do you want me to find it and wear it so you can see?"
"No need to do that. I'm sure Gab will look very good after wearing her yukata." Raphiel replied very positively.
"As long as you know."
Gabriel admitted it straightforwardly.
Raphiel added with a smile, "Anyway, people who compliment themselves look better in yukata. It makes sense."
"Where did this strange common sense come from? I look good in a yukata because I'm naturally beautiful!"
Hearing her additional words, Gabriel instantly became angry.
"Maybe that's one of the reasons." Raphiel replied nonchalantly.
"What do you mean maybe? Definitely!" Gabriel said angrily, "Also, it's all because of my beauty! Looking good in a yukata has nothing to do with my body shape."
"Gab, do you think I'll look good in a yukata?" Raphiel asked.
"... I refuse to answer that question."
After staring at her towering figure for a moment, Gabriel chose to run away.
Raphiel smiled and said, "You're getting cuter."
