"There are more missing items than I imagined." Business has been getting better and better these past two days as the cupboards that usually seem to be empty have been getting better and better.
This resulted in a sharp increase in the intensity of the work, as some things needed to be placed in the oven and took a long time to bake.
As a result, some cakes were neglected and missing due to carelessness. In addition, it was very troublesome to re-bake them.
This also forced Sora to stay up all night. This is the price of being careless at work.
Looking at the fresh fragrance emanating from the oven, Sora yawned heavily.
"Sure enough, bread and cake products like this always smell the best right after they come out of the oven." But even so, he couldn't resist the sleepiness that came from deep in his heart.
puzzled, he scratched his head and looked at the time. It was already two in the morning: "Why is it that since getting married, I can't stand it even after such a short time?"
After a long silence, he shook his head slightly, distressed: "I am really getting old. I am not as energetic as before."
"Come on! I still have a wife and a baby to take care of!" Sora stretched lazily, and in his mind, he couldn't help but recall Kiana's cute face and her belly that was getting bigger day by day.
He feels full of energy all of a sudden. 'It's just a night out I can't let this beat me!'
Ding-Ding... Just at this moment, the doorbell hanging on the door rang...
"Why is there anyone coming here so late?"
well, there was some distance between the door and the kitchen, in order to be able to clearly hear someone coming in from the kitchen, he decisively installed a very simple doorbell at the door the next day after Theresa and Himeko's incident.
This doorbell is hung above the door frame. As long as someone pushes the door to enter, the movable door can knock down the bell hanging above the door frame.
Personally, he feels that this kind of crisp sound is much better than that produced by electronic devices.
"Who would come here so late at night?" Sora's mind was full of doubts. "It's unlikely that it's Kiana. She'd be sleeping soundly at this hour. Could it be... Rita?"
Suddenly, that charming and enchanting figure appeared in Sora's mind.
'Miss Rita, who likes to wear maid clothes, somehow gets along well with me at work.'
'And...because Kiana is pregnant now, I can always focus on the task at hand when I am working.'
But once he had some free time, he discovered that the maid named Rita seemed to be teasing him intentionally or unintentionally recently.
'Even I, who have been slow to react recently, have already sensed this.'
The sense of proportion is very good, not making people feel too offended but also making people feel itchy. Just like that, a vague sense of distance is maintained.
Of course, this could be his own illusion. After all, a woman like Miss Rita is full of charm and her words are as sweet as honey.
'Maybe I'm just overthinking it?'
But it's really uncomfortable to suppress the gun... and it can be quite embarrassing sometimes.
But when Sora turned around, it was not Miss Rita that he had imagined...
But a very strange woman?
Her hair is a little black with a hint of purple, and her eyes are a beautiful purple like violet.
'Is that pajamas?'
Sora took a closer look and confirmed that it was pajamas, but the originally loose pajamas were made to look like tights by the tall and well-built woman in front of him.
It was clearly a set of pajamas, but it had a different meaning...
So why would someone come to the store in the middle of the night?
Sora opened his mouth to say something but suddenly realized that the woman in front of him was more mature than before, thinner, and looked a little haggard.
'How strange... I'm pretty sure I've never seen her before.'
"You…"
"Captain! Are you the captain?" the woman said in disbelief, covering her mouth.
"???" He tilted his head, always full of doubt, "Ah? No! Could my wife's mental illness be contagious?"
Just when he was confused, the woman took a step forward and ran towards him.
"Be careful! I just mopped the floor! It's slippery! Don't fall..." Sora's pupils contracted violently, and then he saw the woman running on the marble floor that she had just mopped as if it were flat ground.
What a balance this is!
Then, in front of his surprised gazes, she supported herself on the bar table, which was more than one meter high with one hand, and jumped into the kitchen.
Standing upright in front of him?
Sora silently swallowed his saliva: "Well... Miss, good evening..."
Please forgive him. He didn't know what to say at this moment.
Then he saw this woman grabbing Sora's cheek and shaking it from side to side as if she was very excited.
"It's really you! It's really you!"
The other side seemed very excited...
"Um, lady!" Sora shook his head and immediately broke free from the strange woman's hands that were gripping his cheeks.
"We are not open now! If you want to buy anything, please come during the day..."
Before Sora could finish his words, he saw a beautiful face coming towards him very quickly.
0.1 seconds later, a pair of soft and slightly cold lips pressed against his mouth...
Sora: '!!! Holy shit! What's going on!'
His brain suddenly short-circuited, and he instinctively wanted to break free. But he was sad to find that the woman had hugged him without him knowing when.
She was surprisingly strong! A grown man like me couldn't move at all.
The other party seemed to have noticed that he wanted to escape, and held him tighter.
The force was so great that Sora could even feel his bones wailing, some pain, and even his chest being squeezed so hard that he could hardly breathe...
She just held him like that, their lips touching, but there was no further movement.
Soon he felt like he was short of oxygen.
Instinctively wanting to breathe, Sora slightly opened his mouth...
But as soon as his mouth opened a little, he saw a very flexible and slippery thing.
It would seize the opportunity and drill into his mouth...
