I Heard That the Cool Maid Had Feelings for Someone, so I Fired Her for Her Happiness, and She Came to My House Alone
I had a master who I served since I was a little girl. His name is Shui-sama. Master’s name is very rare name, which is written in holly and reads “Shui”
But that name fits him so well that I would feel uncomfortable if it were not Shui-sama.
The reason why I have been serving him since I was a little girl is probably because my family has been the master’s family for generations and I have been active as a maid.
I heard that my mother also served my master’s father until she got married.
I guess it was around the time I started high school. My classmates would sometimes confess their love for me.
The reasons varied from “I fell in love with you at first sight,” to “I am more suitable for you,” to a list of words that did not resonate with me at all.
Some of the more unusual ones include, “You are Bacchun in my heart?” I doubt if it is really Japanese.
Of course, such Japanese-like confessions didn’t resonate with me at all.
So I reported to master every time I received a confession. As a servant of the master, I reported every single thing that happened to me.
Master always listened to me sincerely.
If Kanade likes him, why don’t you go out with him? I felt a sense of tenderness, but at the same time, I also felt a tingling sensation in my chest.
I still don’t know what that tingling pain was. All I know is that the same sensation hit me when I saw Master chatting with a friend of the opposite gender.
What is it about love?
Time passed and Master and I became university students. We went to a famous public university that boasts one of the highest deviation values and employment results in Japan.
Master entered the top medical school among them, while I unfortunately fell one step short and entered the middle-ranked law school.
I have no regrets about entering law school. The reason is that Master’s mother, whom I admire, is a lawyer and graduated from the law department of this university.
master’s mother is a very capable lawyer.
His mother’s name has been introduced on TV news many times, and she has won many court cases.
That is why I had already been studying to become a lawyer since I entered law school.
But just a while ago, I lost all motivation. I don’t know why, just today, just a few minutes ago, I was thinking of studying after finishing my various tasks…
“Master…”
Master fired me. I had no idea what that meant. I had served him devotedly for more than ten years and he had never complained to me.
“Why, Master…Even though I am by your side…”
Tears welled up in my eyes. I have never cried before.
Lately, I have often felt that the master’s attitude was not very friendly. Until recently, I had treated him like a friend and even played pranks on him in the bedroom at night, sneaking under his covers.
Those times were so incredibly comfortable. I never thought it would fall apart so easily…what was wrong with me?
I had always treated Master the same way, now and in the past.
It’s no good…I can’t think of anything. Let’s go to sleep today.
“Master…”
At noon, after registering for classes, Towa and I were walking around the university campus together. At this time of the day, many clubs are in session because the lectures have not started yet.
“That reminds me, don’t call me master at school, okay? It’s misleading.”
“Eh. What?”
This girl is really not very perceptive. The male-to-female ratio in our university is 6:4, a little more male than female, and if you limit it to the medical school, the male-to-female ratio is 7:3.
Besides, most of the seniors and classmates are guys with bad personalities. They are all serious people at heart, but they have a lot of teasing towards those who are close to them.
At Kanade’s time, I was in a different department, so they didn’t know I had a maid, which was fine, but at Towa, we are in the same department.
No matter what, I would have to deal with the seniors, and if they found out that Towa called me “master,” they would make fun of me.
“It would be bad if they find out you call me master,”
“Then it would definitely be more fun to call you Master.”
“Hey, stop kidding around”
I gave her a chop on the head.
“Ouch.”
“You’re gonna be in a lot of pain.”
“Why?”
You’re really not very perceptive, are you? That’s one of the good things about Towa, but… well, you’re a girl, and you should be aware of what the guys around you are thinking, right?
My thoughts, right? Girls, please tell me.
“Uh…oh, I kinda get it. I’m being nice, I’ll guess.”
Do you really get it?
“Let’s go to the law school.”
After walking toward the law school for a while, I saw a person lying on a bench. She was wearing a blanket, so I couldn’t see her face clearly.
“Hey, isn’t that Kanade?”
“Hmm? I’m sure it is…”
Towa approaches the bench with a worried look on her face. I’m following behind her.
“It’s Kanade after all, what’s wrong?”
“Towa…? Master…?”
