Act 3 - The School Festival
25-5
The number of people who have come to the restaurant has increased, but the job I have to do is still the same.
After placing the orders to the girls, I confirm the presence of new customers and proceed to greet them.
"Welcome back, Ojou-sama." (Rintaro)
Standing before two college-aged women, I put on my best sales smile.
They seem to like it and begin giggling.
"Seats for two, is that correct??" (Rintaro)
"Yes. Um, um, are you the person in charge of serving the customers?"
"Huh? Oh, yes. I'm in charge of serving the customers......." (Rintaro)
"Yay! Lucky us!"
I don't know what it is that they're pleased with, but it's always nice to receive compliments.
As I feel a little better, I notice the commotion behind me.
Casually glancing to the side, I see that Rei has crushed a paper cup of water, and the rest two are hurriedly covering it up.
It doesn't seem like a big deal, so I'll leave it for now. But I should refrain from being too obvious about my contentment.
"Please follow this way." (Rintaro)
"Ka~y!"
I guide the excited two to their table and provide them with paper cups of water before they decide what they want to order.
For some reason, they call me, so I halt in front of their table.
"Hey, what's your name?"
"I go by Shidou." (Rintaro)
"Not just your surname, what's your given name?"
"......It's Rintaro." (Rintaro)
"Hee~, Rintaro-kun, is that it, that's a cute name."
"Do you think so?" (Rintaro)
"Does Rintaro-kun have a girlfriend?"
"I don't... I'm currently not dating anyone." (Rintaro)
"What? Such a cool guy like you to have none, isn't it a waste?"
"That's...... I don't think I'm that cool――――" (Rintaro)
"But if you don't have a girlfriend, maybe I should volunteer? Just kidding."
"Hahaha......" (Rintaro)
What the heck is this conversation?
I don't know how to react, so I just give a friendly laugh and let it go.
It seems too obvious for a moment, but regardless, the two women in front of me are laughing happily.
Then I hear a crumpling sound from the back again.
When I check by averting just my eyes, this time, not only Rei but also Mia is crushing the paper cups.
It sends a shiver down my spine.
"Rintaro! Can you help me for a moment?" (Ryuuji)
"Oh, sure! I'll be right there!" (Rintaro)
Called by a hurried Doumoto, I move away from the table where I have been serving the girls.
Honestly, it is a relief. It's not like I was uncomfortable, but as they were customers, I couldn't just ignore them, and it would have wasted a lot of my time.
"Eeh, are you leaving?
"I'm very sorry about that. But, if you've decided on your order, please call me again." (Rintaro)
With a disappointed voice behind me, I head off to deal with the customer that Kakihara and Doumoto are unable to handle.
We intentionally maintain the number of tables low to avoid being overwhelmed, but as the turnover rate increases, the busyness grows.
The girls who are on the same shift as us seem to be working part-time at the family restaurant and are efficiently handling the male customers. Unfortunately, we can't keep up with them.
(Damn it... I knew I shouldn't have taken this job.)
Even though the work has only just begun, there is nothing I can do about it if I'm not used to it anyway.
Kakihara seems to be getting used to it already, and both Dohmoto and I need to catch up quickly.
"――――C'mon, guys! Get your asses over here!"
As I continue my work again, I hear an irritated voice coming from the entrance.
It is Kinjou, accompanied by a bunch of his friends from another school.
He's acting even more arrogantly than usual, probably it's due to surrounded by his friends.
The girl who is supposed to greet them looks somewhat troubled.
"Sigh... you guys slept till this hour, so we're running late thanks to you." (Kinjou)
"Seriously, you should be grateful we came here...... We're still sleepy, you know?"
The guys behind Kinjou, who are yawning, weren't there when I saw him earlier.
Now there are five of them in total, forming a rather conspicuous group.
"Umm... Welcome back, Goshujin-sama. Will it be seats for five?"
"Can't you tell just by looking?" (Kinjou)
"E-excuse my rudeness! Right this way, please."
Kinjou, with his unpleasant attitude, follows the maid-dressed girl in an irritated manner.
At the same time, his friends, with annoying smirks on their faces, start bothering the girl in front of them.
"Heh, I thought it would be cheap-looking, but it's surprisingly authentic, isn't it? You're cute too, you know?"
"U-umm..... Please stop it."
"Huh? It's fine, isn't it? Come on, give us good service."
The guy is trying to touch the girl, and the girl looks uncomfortable, displaying a mix of distress and fear on her face.
This is clearly going too far.
Before I can speak up and ask them to stop, the justice-driven Kakihara intervenes.
"Excuse me, could you please stop touching the girl in our class?" (Yuusuke)
"Huh? I haven't touched them yet. Don't make baseless accusations. What a rude guy you are."
"What...?" (Yuusuke)
It is clear that they are the ones with a bad attitude, but they don't seem to feel guilty about it. Rather, they even laugh at Kakihara for trying to warn them.
Seeing their faces, Doumoto is about to explode with anger.
Doumoto furrows his brow deeply and tries to confront them from behind Kakihara.
"......Ryuuji, hold back." (Yuusuke)
However, Kakihara stops him with his hand.
"But..." (Ryuuji)
"Excuse my rudeness. Please continue to enjoy our maid and butler cafe." (Yuusuke)
Kakihara must have judged that these guys are just too much trouble.
If Doumoto were to confront them, there was a possibility that it could have turned into a violent incident.
Of course, Doumoto would never lay a hand on them, but if they were serious about causing trouble, it wouldn't end well.
So, for now, they just had to restrain them and change the way they served the girls.
So for now, it's just a deterrent to calm things down, and it seems like he plans to take the task over from the girl from here on.
"Kakihara-kun..."
"It's okay, leave it to me." (Yuusuke)
He sends the girl to another table and Kakihara begins to guide the Kinjou's gang.
However, there's no way they can be satisfied with that――――.
"Hey, hey! We came here because we heard the maids would entertain us, but why do we have to be served by a bastard?"
"I'm very sorry. They're also busy." (Yuusuke)
"Sigh, this is disappointing. Hey, Kinjou, did you lie to us when you brought us here?"
The guy who throws the words at Kinjou wears an expression of fake dissatisfaction mixed with a cunning smile.
Not only he, but the rest of them have the same expression as well, and Kinjou, who is in the center, restrains them with his hand.
"No, no, I'm sure she's here. She's just hiding because she doesn't want to cause a commotion." (Kinjou)
After hearing Kinjo's words, I broke out in a cold sweat.
Finally, I understood Kinjou's objective here.
"We don't have any business with you, boys. Come the hell out quickly, REI of MilleSta." (Kinjou)
Raising his voice, Kinjo intentionally mentions her name.
Because his voice echoes in the hallway, the other customers begin to buzz.
Some of them are even visiting this place because REI of the Millefeuille Stars goes to this school. If such voices are heard, many onlookers will come by in search of people who shouldn't be there.
That's exactly what Kinjou is after.
It's his revenge――――for being rejected by Rei.
