Part Time Job!

 

 

The clock showed it was late at night.

 

Everyone was asleep as they usually were at this time. Though my room’s lights are still on.

 

“Hey Fio-san. Can I ask you something?. . .”

“O-k,Yuri. You know that I support you in your love crusade. Please don’t hold anything back,tell me everything.”

 

I folded my arms and rested them desk,smiling while doing it.The candle illuminated Yuri’s face as I looked up towards her.She had a serious expression.

 

Why would such a pious nun visit me so lately in the night? What possible could does she want to ask that it needs to be at this time.

 

She hesitated for a little bit, then she finally opened her mouth.

 

“Tomorrow, Ray-san, at 10 O’clock for 1 hour please!. . .”

 

Her request was kind of broken and would be hard to understand. However I can fully understand it. It is not the first time she requested something along the lines of this.

 

She always has a hard time to put it clearly.So I smiled as much as I could and responded to her.

 

“Well,leave it to me.However Yuri. . . . Do you have want I need though?”

“Er, that. . .Is 20G enough?”

“20G!?  Why is it so cheap this time? Well I can maybe work for that cheap.”

 

I raised my eyebrows to the amount of money,showing her I was surprised.

 

Hmm,Well she was very generous before. Although she has a dynamite glamorous body, seems her heart may not be as big.

 

“I know it’s not the usual amount but my perfume has reduced my pocket money so much. . . .Though I can skillfully invite Alto-sama out for a date,Even my date funds are in a tough state. . .”

“That’s quite the problem. However what does that have to do with the request?”

“Eh?um, that. But. . .”

 

I cut off her excuses so that she can rely on my kindness and looked at her with cold eyes. . . . and reminded her not to try and guilt me into her request.

 

“Don’t worry Yuri. If you take some out of the dating fund.Well Cause if you don’t have me you may not succeed in even inviting him out.So don’t worry.Ifyou want I’ll be flexible, You can give me the rest later on, so do you understand?”

 

She was bewildered a bit because of my quick response and attitude, once I finished I smiled at her.If you don’t ask you don’t receive.(貰うものは貰う。)(TN:think this is a saying hope I got it.)

 

“U-understood. . . .is 50G good?”
“. . . Well, it is true the Yuri is having a tough financial situation. So only for this time it will be okay.”

 

Alright, I was able to negotiate a better price.Females are usually really hard to negotiate with sometimes.Truly frightening creatures. Although Yuri is quiet right now, if there is even a gap in the price she will take it. A born negotiator.

 

“T-thank you very much, Fio-san.”

“Leave it to me.Think of it down, I am a business person, I keep my word. Kukuku. . . .”

 

Fortunately this deal was finalized quickly and nicely.Yuri is a relatively easy-to-do class,but it is a hard time to bargaining like this every time. I wonder if there is an easier”Part-time job”?(バイト)

 

“. . . . What are you girls doing!?”

“Kyaa!”

“Uwaa~?”

 

That scared me!

 

There was a thud at the door. I looked over and there was Root with a scary expression. He didn’t even knock.

 

“Root don’t suddenly yell.”

“T-that scared me. Root-san, is something wrong?”

“I was shocked myself! What dubious scheme are you guys planning!?”

 

Ahh,I see. Did he hear our conversation?

 

“This is a business talk.”

“There is somewhat a disturbing atmosphere. Yuri, are you by chance being deceived by Fio or something?”

“That’s how you see me!?”

 

Does Root think of me as a bad guy? It’s the opposite, I am listening to her dirty desires.

 

“T-That, it’s actually me requesting her to do something dirty. . . ”

“Root, where you purposely listening to two women talking secretly?I guess we eventually see the true character of a person.”(その内容を根掘り葉掘り聞くんじゃねぇよ.)(TN:Just making sure.)

“T-That. . .that certainly wasn’t considerate of me, sorry.”

 

Alright I may be able to shift blame.

 

“However, are you sure your not being deceived? Because Fio breathes lie and is quite corrupted.”

“Oi Root,are you trying to start a fight?”

“ Uh, it’s alright. . . .Just asked her for a small request of making sure Ray-san doesn’t leave the house.”

“Doesn’t leave the house?”

 

Well said Yuri.I would’ve hurt my heart to think I was deceiving them.

 

. . . . . .Well, As long as it doesn’t damage my reputation.

 

“For the next day off, Alto-sama doesn’t have any plans, So I want to invite him out to a date tomorrow.Root-san and Rin-san are on shopping duty, and after 10 am Mamya is outside training. It will be only Ray-san who could stop it or get in the way, so keeping her in the house would prevent that.”

“Ahh. . . . .So that’s what this is about.”

 

Root expression seemed to loosen a bit. It seems that he may have been convinced by Yuri’s words.

 

“That’s why I said we were having a girl talk. And then the man Root impolitely interrupted us.”

“I don’t think so Fio. I don’t think this could be classified as a “Girl talk”.”

 

What? Aren’t all talks between two girls constituted as a “Girl Talk”?

 

“Um, Root-san can you please not tell anybody about this request? . . . .”

“. . . Okay. I understand.Although I don’t like the fact that Fio is receiving money for it,But Yuri convinced me I will not say anything. . .”

“That is unusually down to earth for Root. Usually you would persist and continue to scold.”

 

Well if he consents.But doesn’t sound like he took self-responsibility for cutting into people’s conversations.

 

“Thank you very much.Well, I will prepare for tomorrow. Goodnight,Fio-san,Root-san.”

“Goodnight Yuri. Sorry for cutting into your conversation halfway.”

“No,It’s alright, it’s because of how Fio-san’s method of doing this. So I will excuse myself,both of you have a good night.”

 

She smiled and left the room while putting her hood back on.I am healed. Sister-sans’s smile for some reason has a healing effect.

 

“. . . .”

 

Well now that Yuri has gone back to her room. I want to start changing into sleepwear now. Hmm, even after Yuri left with her good night. Root is just standing there still though.

 

. . . . . Does this guy have no common sense?

 

“Why are you still her Root?Have you perhaps gone rotten, I don’t feel like having a man in my room at such a time.”

“. . . .Hey Fio, let me ask one thing.Did you set up this designated meeting time with Yuri?”

“Eh?Ah,Aaa. Is that so?”

“. . . .”

“W-what?”

 

Root is is just standing there brooding. What the heck is he thinking?

 

 

–   – *Tick *Tock *Tick *Tock *Tick Tock*

 

 

Then there was a knock at my door.Perhaps Rin is coming to visit.

 

Ahh, this is going to become a mess. But I don’t want to send away Rin! But I have to.

 

“Sorry ,Rin?! But, I am a little busy- -!!”

“- – -Oh no it’s fine! Hey Rin are you there? You can come in!”

“Understood I’ll enter. . . .Mmm? Why is Root here?”

 

My attempt to end this mess ended with failure. Rin then entered the room immediately with a sleepy face rubbing her eyes. I need to quickly end this.

 

“Rin, its a bad time. I am in the middle of talking with Root.So do you mind coming back later?”

“Nh,Is that so? Okay. I will leave my money here. . . Bye bye.”

 

Ching. She threw about 50G on my bed.Instantly Root’s glare stabbed into me. He is a truly smart person. And I depend on him a lot in battle. I really didn’t want this to get out and I really want him to forgive me.

 

“. . .Hey. Rin. Can I ask you something? What is this money for?”

“This?. . . .It’s the money as a thanks for keeping the fox Yuri busy for an hour.I was skillfully be able to invite Alto to a date. . .”

 

. . . . . The little girl said so quietly. Yes I did just negotiations with Yuri for a similar request to stop Ray today. I also negotiated something similar with Rin about Yuri a while ago though. To make it where it was just Rin and Alto alone.

 

In other words, Even if Yuri is able to be alone with Alto tomorrow and tries to invite Alto tomorrow for a date on the next day off. It would be pointless though cause Rin already made plans with Alto.

Root glared at me with fire in his eyes now.

 

“You!! Are terrible deceiving liar! Your interior is completely rotten!! You said you didn’t deceive Yuri!!”

“Deceive!? I will properly fulfill her request!”

“Deceive?. . . Fio, did you do something bad?”

“I did not! I am doing what I am told!”

“Apparently I have to repair you broken head! I always feel like I am acting as the proper hero against you and Birdie!”

“Uwaa,Not the lecture!”

 

I had just finished the day after yesterday’s night out with Birdie!I haven’t gotten to rest. And now I get to have a hot unpleasant night with Root.

 

My back is broken, I don’t can’t stand. Mainly from the numbness of sitting Seiza.(Seiza is the Japanese traditional way of sitting.)
