I Heard That the Cool Maid Had Feelings for Someone, so I Fired Her for Her Happiness, and She Came to My House Alone
“It just occurred to me, how many outside clothes does master have?”
“Uh, let’s see.”
I’m basically an indoor person, so I only have the bare minimum of clothes for going out.
When I was in high school, most of the reason I went out was to go to school, so I didn’t have to worry about clothes, but I don’t remember buying anything since I got the bare minimum before entering college.
“Master has five fashions. He rotates between them from Monday to Friday.”
“No way!?”
“It’s just like Kanade said.”
If you are an ordinary college student who is not really interested in fashion, that’s about normal.
It is quite normal for a college student to want to spend money on hobbies and interests rather than on clothes.
“Really? Then what’s that outfit?”
“The one from Thursday.”
It’s the weekend, so there’s nothing wrong with wearing Thursday clothes.
Personally, I like Thursday fashion.
All five outfits in the rotation were chosen by Kanade, so I’m sure they’re all great.
“Hmmm… I’ve made up my mind. Now the three of us will put on a fashion show!”
Something flipped a switch, and before we knew it, Kanade and I were being led into the store of a national clothing manufacturer.
I had thought we were being taken to an expensive manufacturer’s store.
“Master doesn’t seem to be interested in clothes, so I thought we could get by with something inexpensive.”
Towa looks at me with a smirk on her face.
Did you just read my mind?
“Kanade may not seem to be interested in clothes, but she is a very fashionable person, so she can choose her own clothes, right?”
“Yes, I think I’ll be fine.”
I had never focused on Kanade’s clothes, but they certainly fit her very well.
I’ll spare you the explanation because it’s too much trouble, but it’s full of a sense of neatness, and the harmony with her silver hair is wonderful.
“Then let’s disperse immediately and meet in front of the fitting room in 20 minutes!”
As soon as Towa gave the signal, Kanade flew away. Too soon, too soon.
I had thought that Towa was going to choose mine, but I had no idea that I was going to have to choose myself.
I’ve never chosen anything by myself before!
“Then, Master, first try to choose by yourself. After that, I and Kanade will help you.”
“Yeah.”
Towa’s back was dashing away. I think it’s not my imagination that It felt so big just now.
It’s not good. It looks like there are only parents and children or couples in the store.
I seem to be the only customer who looks like a college guy like me, alone.
I feel like I’ve been exposed.
“I go to the men’s section for now.”
I can’t just hang around the entrance like this forever. I feel as if I’m being looked at suspiciously by someone who seems to be a store clerk.
I saw Kanade and Towa choosing together on the section I passed before coming to the men’s section.
They were talking like they were friends, which made me happy, too.
“Well, I guess I’ll just take my pick…”
I picked out a couple of plain hoodies that seemed to be a hit or miss and put them in my basket.
I also picked out a pair of jeans that were a little darker in color, and a pair of lighter ones.
And one long navy coat as a gag.
I heard that long coats never look good on anyone except really cool people.
In that case, they say you can wear a long coat. The clothes are supposed to be worn by other people, but in the case of the long coat, if it doesn’t suit you, they call it that.
Twenty minutes later, each of us was in front of the fitting room with the clothes we had chosen.
It seems like they had been working together ever since
“Then, let’s start with master.”
“What? Why? Usually it’s the two of you, isn’t it?”
“Normally, yes, but Kanade and I have already chosen together and know that it will look good.”
“..I’m just going to be embarrassed.”
I shouldn’t have thought of gagging and fetching a long coat.
 
Kanade will probably try to avoid saying anything, but Towa is sure she’ll just laugh out loud.
“All right. Then…”
As it turned out, the hoodie and jeans were a good enough score.
According to Towa, they were too conventional.
No, no, no, of course not. Did they think I would choose clothes with skeletons embroidered on them like the main characters in anime and novels?
I’m not that far from the end, that’s for sure.
So, the long coat in question, I’m actually trying it on right now.
I haven’t shown it to the two of them yet, and they are looking at it in the mirror in the fitting room.
“Is it bad?”
At first glance, it doesn’t look funny… but it’s just a subjective impression, and what matters is the opinion of two people with excellent fashion sense.
“This is the end”
I opened the curtains with great vigor and appeared in front of the two of them.
“Eh…”
“Oof…”
