Can Someone Please Explain This Situation

Chapter 27

Ch . 27 Together Again

“Many thanks for today . Aah, Lotus . Today it is already late so I will be sleeping here . Please prepare the room . ”

Hmmm, what did this person just say? ……after a long time there is an intense disturbance . Lotus, Dahlia and Mimosa have also secretly stiffened . It has been a long time since a severe earthquake has come .

“……certainly”

Again Lotus quickly recovers .

And the feeling of the unvoiced latest arrangement of ‘the Master shift, quickly deploy～!! Go go～!!’ reverberates around the entrance way . Today it is different from the usual pattern but it will probably be okay?

“Will you shortly go to bed?”

The Duke swapped his gaze from Lotus to me and asked this . I bump into the dark eyes……then, I wake up from my daydream .

“Ye, yes . Because today was so tiring”

Please release already……, cough . No, well, because the optional event is supposed to be ended .

Not knowing what to he is going to say next I tilt my head sideways,

“Is that so . Because I thought of having tea or something . Well, that can be on another occasion . Good night . Please prepare my tea in the room”

After facing me and softly smiling, the Duke ordered Lotus to prepare tea .

“I wonder if the Master shift is okay?”

While the Duke’s attention has strayed from me I stealthily whisper in Dahlia’s ear .

“Probably . Because some time ago I caught many people going up to the second floor from the corner of my eyes”

Dahlia also lowered her voice to reply .

“As always they are inquiring the state of affairs of the entrance way . Thank goodness”

As expected they are superior servants . They are doing a good job .

“Yes”

We are talking with our two faces close together but,

“Is something wrong?”

Now I notice it the Duke is watching us with a dubious expression .

“Ah, eh, no, it is nothing!

Ohohohoho～, I forcibly make a smile!

“Is that so? Well then good night”

“Good night”

I am already completely exhausted, so I’ll accept him at his word without reservation . I decide to retire to my room along with Dahlia and Mimosa .

“Ah～that was shocking . I ended up stiffening again from him saying unexpected things～”

Having undone my army clothes……I mean fancy clothes, finished bathing, changed into completely refreshing night-clothes, I dive *fwump* on the bed which has splendid cushioning . I am fully aware that it is bad manners, but Dahlia and Mimosa are not warning me yet . It is essential to give up! This room’s sofa is good and the bed is good, it is extremely comfortable, so I unintentionally I end up *lazily rolling about* . No, are there many people who wriggling around? That, the story has gone astray .

“Really . It also went pure white for a moment for me as well”

“Me too～”

Dahlia and Mimosa are both smiling wryly .

“The Duke’s recent actions, I do not understand at all～”

I query Dahlia and Mimosa while lazing about on the bed,

“Well, should I say it is astounding……”

“This unlikely thing is continuing”

They reply in similarly way, weighing up the Duke’s true motive .

“I wonder is the quarrel with Her is becoming mired in a mess?”

“Although up until now there has not been such a thing……”

“You also have not touched the detached building”

“If Master keeps coming here frequently like this, it will become more and more tangled”

“That’s right~”

“Although, Master also maybe has some kind of intention, this point we have to wait and see”

“That’s right . Just as Dahlia said . ……fuaa~ today was tiring~ I wonder if I will be able to wake up tomorrow? Uaa, wait a sec, I wonder is breakfast going to be together with the Duke?”

Staying the night over here, means breakfast will be eaten here .

“I fear that is likely . Mistress what will you do?”

Dahlia nods .

“As I thought would not [eating] together be unpleasant [for him]?

There will probably [be times when] I oversleep or something like that?

“Well it should be okay if you do not do it together though……”

Dahlia smiles bitterly .

“……okay, uh huh . Together…… waaah, my meals~~~!! Even under normal circumstances I have been not getting my evening meal and have been sulky~! Dahlia~, can you please relay this to Carthame? Say I am looking forward to the lunch meal!”

Nevertheless thinking about ‘I wonder which region today’s meal is from~♪’ is my enjoyment! Moreover I regret from the bottom of my heart that the fun meal times sitting together with everybody have decreased!

“Yes, of course I will”

“Today it is already late . See you tomorrow”

My usual bedtime has passed by a long time ago . I am sorry for Dahlia, Mimosa, all the servants working overtime .

““Good night, Mistress””

“Goodnight”

The two people bow and leave the room .

Tomorrow not changing into a good wife style would be no good . Let’s be careful so as not to do my usual habit and change into the servant uniform!

But is She really fine? I am not concerned about the kind of state of affairs that around me, but I wish I am pardoned from the effects spreading to those seemingly uninvolved .

However today was tiring . Social events are things that shave off both physical and mental strength . Today’s evening party had Re-debut feeling . Me ‘The☆one left out of the loop’ who had experienced only a few social events, my foundation is a wallflower, dancing and conversing I mostly did not do, so it was a human being observation paradise . However the situation has changed and I have become a person close to the focus and it is this tiring! Fuu, tired~……*sleeping peacefully*

I fell fast into a dreamless sleep, and when I recover consciousness it is the fresh morning . Even I am proud of myself for waking up properly .

Dahlia and Mimosa have not yet realized and come in, so like this I pull the futon over my head and indulge in inactivity, then after a short time there is a light knock sound and two people appear together .

““Good morning, Mistress””

“Morning”

While Dahlia hangs a stole on my scarf, Mimosa gleefully disappears into the clothing room [T/N: wardrobe] . Today because it is not the servant uniform it seems she is picking it out cheerfully .

“The Duke is?”

First of all I probably have to confirm . Thinking this I confirm with Dahlia and,

“Yes, he is eating breakfast here so I heard he is being served”

Looking at her calmly replying without becoming confused or making a fuss, the Master shift probably already is taking place .

Is that so . Uh huh, I was not all expecting something like ‘he left early etc . and has already left~”?

“Understood . If the preparation is done let us go to the dining room””

While sitting in a chair in front of the dresser getting prepared, I reply to Dahlia in the mirror .

I finish preparing and go to the dining room, the Duke is seated at a place at the table .

“Good morning”

“Good morning”

The Duke is already wearing the knight’s uniform . I wonder when he had prepared a change of clothes for here? That dashing uniform, it seems to have the effect of making the Duke’s attractiveness stand out . Usually I only see him in the evenings, so looking at him because of the bright morning sun and it seems different .

“Is something wrong?”

Before I know the Duke who is sitting down is inquiring of me . Danger danger . I staringly surveyed him too much! This is dodgier . I can not master the skill of looking up and down and yet it not looking like a ill-mannered gaze!

“No . It is nothing . ”

*smile* . First of all smile and lie~ . The skills that I have are something like this .

At the same time the Duke is seated, foods are carried in one by one .

That’s right ‘s’ .

The Duke’s breakfast as usual is like a smorgasbord!
