Chapter 28 - Macarons

"Well, if that's the case I'm a little excited to exercise. Oh, yes I have another sports jacket, I've only worn it a few times but don't use it anymore because it's too small." Elvira walked to her closet and took a tracksuit jacket that no longer fit.

"I want to!" As usual, Elvira often gave her clothes that she couldn't wear anymore. Even though it is used, the clothes given still look new, and if she doesn't accept it, the clothes will be thrown away. Due to that reason as well as her body being smaller than Elvira's, she didn't hesitate to accept it immediately.

"Even though mom knows that I never exercise, but she still buys me sports clothes. I think this has been in the wardrobe for quite a while, if it smells a bit I will ask my maid to wash it first." Elvira took a purple tracksuit jacket and showed it to Eliza.

"Are you sure you want to give this jacket? You know what this jacket is, right?" Eliza's eyes widened slightly when she saw what jacket Elvira was offering.

"Eh, a sports jacket right? What else?" Elvira looked at the jacket in her hands once again and there was nothing special about it.

"You're kidding right? Isn't this a Brand Johnson jacket that is not for sale and only given to their business partners. It was specially made for Brand Johnson's birthday 8 months ago. Since only important people have this jacket, it is this jacket have a high value now." Eliza felt that she didn't deserve the luxury jacket because she was just a commoner.

"What are you saying?! In my eyes this is nothing more than a jacket that just hangs in the wardrobe. Whether it's limited or made by a well-known brand, a jacket is still a jacket. I should be the one feeling bad for giving away my used clothes so many times." Hearing Eliza who lowered herself when she saw the jacket that was about to be given, she was angry.

"If you're okay, I'll gladly accept. Thank you, Elvira. I hope Olive is rescued soon so we can all be together again soon." Eliza was slightly moved by Elvira's attitude. She didn't expect that even though Elvira was always surrounded by luxurious clothes, the black-haired girl didn't even notice that the clothes she had were luxurious.

"I also hope so." Elvira immediately gave the jacket to Eliza.

"May I check the jacket?" With a shining gaze, Elvira continued to stare at the jacket she had just received and intended to follow Elvira's previous advice.

"Of course. So if the jacket stinks or something is torn, my maid can take care of it." Because the jacket has been in the closet for 6 months, she feels bad if the item she is about to give turns out to be smelly or damaged. So she decided to take care of the jacket before Eliza brought it home.

Eliza started to look side by side and flipped through the jacket while fumbling for it. After confirming that his jacket wasn't damaged, she ended it by sniffing it.

"How?" Elvira was a little worried when she saw that Eliza was silent for a moment after sniffing the red jacket. She thought that Eliza found the damage to the jacket and got angry.

"Whoah, it smells so good! The smell of your perfume still lingers on his jacket and I feel like I'm sniffing you directly..." Because the smell was too good, she fell a little complacent and said everything she was thinking.

"Eh?" Hearing her friend's explanation, which was far from her expectations, Elvira narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at her suspiciously.

"Ah!! I didn't mean perfume... I was wrong, what I smelled was not perfume but fabric softener used for washing. So I feel like I'm at your house all the time." Eliza sweated a little after realizing her words were really weird and immediately looked for other reasons to cover up her previous mistakes.

"Hmm... Glad to hear that." Even though she still suspected him, she chose not to find out any further because Eliza didn't mind the jacket.

"Oh, yeah. Since I'm too busy discussing your room, I only have 7 minutes left." Eliza looked surprised when she saw her watch.

"Ah, you are right. Then, what shall we do now?" While tilting her head, she wondered what things Eliza would show her today.

She was really looking forward to what Eliza would show because since she was locked up, the short brown haired girl kept coming with new things or food.

"First, I brought sweets from a cake shop that just opened near the station. Even though I've only tried it once, I immediately liked it and decided to buy a package." Eliza took out a sizable box from her shopping bag.

"Whoa, aren't these macarons? I don't think their outlet will open here. And I'm sure there must be a lot of people there." She was really amazed when she opened the package of sweets and saw that there were various colors of macarons neatly arranged inside.

"Hehe, don't underestimate the connections of country girls like me. Since my relatives work there, I can easily get them without waiting in line." Lifting her chin, Eliza slightly boasted about her connection skills.

"You're so great... Oh yeah, you said this is the first, does that mean there's a second one?" While tasting the various colored macarons one by one, she asked about the other gifts she had brought.
