Chapter 9 - Flirt

Haruka looked at the cute maid and wanted to know who her name was. But he decided to stop that decision since he could feel a piercing gaze on him.

"I'm Minalinsky. Can I take your order?" Minalinsky asked with a cute smile.

"Minalinsky?"

Utaha looked at her curiously.

"Do you know her?" Haruka asked.

"I have heard that she is a legendary maid or something," Utaha answered.

"No, no, I'm not that legendary maid!!"

Waving her hand, Minalinsky was a bit embarrassed when someone called her a legendary maid. Her purpose in working in this place was to get better with her communication skills only suddenly she had become a legendary maid without noticing it.

"Do you have something that you can recommend me in this place?"

Haruka didn't think much about the legendary maid or anything since he had someone beside him and he felt a bit hungry since his metabolism was faster than normal people.

"I recommend our omurice," Minalinsky said with a smile.

Haruka nodded and said, "I will order that and a cup of coffee."

Utaha, who was looking at the book menu said, "I'm going to have a cake with a cup of coffee."

Minalinsky nodded and wrote down their order. She bowed her head and said, "Then, I will prepare your order right away. Please wait for a while." She went to the kitchen to tell the staff about their order, but she looked back at both a girl and a boy before. She felt quite envious of Utaha since she didn't have a chance to communicate with a boy in her school since her school was an all-girls school.

Utaha also looked at the maid and looked at him again.

"How was the maid earlier?"

"Cute?" Haruka answered while tilting his head.

"Really?" Utaha looked at him while folding her arms.

"But you're cuter," Haruka said since he could see her mood was quite bad after he answered her question.

Utaha nodded at him and felt quite satisfied with his answer. "That's right."

Speechless at her confident answer, Haru decided to ask her question, "How come you suddenly wrote a novel?"

"Hmm, I've been interested for a while now and I think I have the talent to be one," Utaha said with a smile.

"Yeah, I think your writing is good," Haruka said.

Utaha raised her eyebrow and said, "You haven't read it, how can you be so sure?"

"You've been writing about an essay on the school before, right? You've also written a script for the drama club before. You have experience and we've been sitting next to each other for two years. I know about your ability in writing," Haru said.

'We've been sitting next to each other for two years ...'

Utaha felt those two years might be the best memory that she had during her middle school time. She smiled beautifully and asked him a lot of questions after he had graduated.

Haru also had a lot of questions for her asking her how her high school was.

They were talking to each other until their order had come.

"Thanks for waiting! This is your order!"

Minalinsky brought their order and placed it on their table. She took a bottle of ketchup and asked, "Do you want me to write something on your omurice?"

Haru was about to say something, but Utaha interrupted him and said, "Can I be the one who writes something on his food?"

"Ah, of course... please be careful!"

Minalinsky was a bit surprised but gave Utaha a bottle of ketchup.

Looking at Utaha, Haru was a bit curious about what she would write for him. He waited for a while but felt speechless at the result.

"Please, eat it, dear," Utaha said with a smile.

"You know... Even if you call me with that kind of sweet voice but you wrote something terrible on my food."

Haruka looked at his food with 'BASTARD' words written there.

Utaha smiled and said, "Really? You should eat it first, I think it tastes better when it is hot."

Haru shook his head and smiled. "Well, you've specially written it for me. I'm sure it'll be tasty."

Utaha blushed but felt happy. "Oh, right. I'll add the "Love" symbol to your food so it'll become better."

"Don't mess with my food again!"

Haru tried to stop Utaha since he knew that this girl wouldn't draw a "love" symbol on his food.

Minalinsky felt very jealous right now. She saw both of them flirt with each other right in front of her, ignoring her existence. Tears started to drop from her eyes, when she saw them ignoring her.

Looking at the maid who suddenly got teary, Utaha was startled. "H, hey, don't cry. Here is your ketchup," She said nervously and gave the bottle of ketchup since she didn't expect this maid to cry which made her quite uncomfortable.

"No, no, it is my fault. You guys continue to flirt with each other."

Minalinsky bowed her head and left them leaving the bottle of ketchup on their table.

"................."

Utaha still looked in shock when she saw her crying until she heard his voice.

"Aaah, you make her cry."

Haruka teased Utaha and ate his omurice. He was about to put it into his mouth, but his wrist was grabbed by her.

Utaha moved his hand toward her and ate from his spoon.

"Hmm! It's delicious!"

Utaha was surprised by the taste of omurice.

Haru shook his head at Utaha's action and continued to eat, ignoring her action. He used the same spoon which she used to put on her mouth earlier, but he didn't think much until he saw her blushing face.

"What's wrong?" Haruka asked since he felt confused.

"Nothing, bastard!"

Utaha blushed and looked away. She thought this guy was dumb or deliberately teasing her since both of them had just done an indirect kiss.

"But I have to admit that it is very delicious."

Haru continued to eat with relish. He was wondering whether he could get the recipe for this omurice since he wanted Sora to taste it.

'Didn't this guy notice it?'

Utaha felt that she was nervous for nothing when she saw him eating food without care.

"What is it? Do you want more?" Haruka asked.

Utaha blushed again. She really felt that this guy was trying deliberately to tease her. She snorted and decided to show him who the boss was. She opened her mouth and tried to provoke him.

"Aah..."

Looking at her for a while, Haru fed the omurice to her mouth.

Utaha didn't expect him to really feed her. Though, she had to admit that she was very happy She chewed her food and felt that it tasted better when he fed her.

"How is it?" Haruka asked.

"It is good. Can I ask more?" Utaha asked.

"No, you should buy it yourself," Haruka said.

"No, I want it from you." Utaha looked at him trying to beg him with a cute expression.

Giving up, Haru decided to feed her again and said, "What a selfish girl, open your mouth,"

"Aaah.."

"Is it good?"

"Feed me one more time."

"..........."

Everyone in the store looked at them and couldn't help but feel annoyed.

If possible they wanted to scream at them while saying, "Can you flirt outside?"
