Chapter 7
The next day I didn't have to get up early and to be honest I was really happy about it. When I did wake up it was about ten and I felt well rested. I walked out of the room and saw that Jurina and Mayu were already gone as well as Yuki and Sae. I got dressed and decided to relax around the house for a while. When I got sick of that I got in the shower and got dressed and then decided to go out for a walk. I knew that I was goings to have to find a job soon because I couldn't rely on Yuki forever. I was gonna have to start new which means looking for a new job.
I grabbed a newspaper and started looking through the help wanted adds. There weren't many job openings and the ones that were open were crummy jobs. I thought about looking at the places that I liked so first I went to the manga store. I asked the manager for the job and he said yes but everyday I would have to wear a different cosplay outfit. I said no and went to the next place.The next stop was a ramen shop that I went to all the time. I was good friends with the owners there so I was bound to get a job. However when I went in and asked, they said they had enough workers and they couldn't do anything else. On my way to my next stop a guy tried to convince me to be a hostess but I said no. Then I went to a clothing store hoping to be a cashier or something but the workers were quite rude so I left.
After hours of searching I finally decided to take a break at a small cafe. Turns out there was a bakery inside as well so I ordered some melonpan and tea. As I sat there trying to relieve my aching feet from all the walking and enjoy the surroundings. There was a pretty nice crowd here and the staff looked nice. I wouldn't mind working here if I had the chance. Soon after my food arrived and I was surprised to see a very small girl serving it. She placed my cup and then asked,
"Is there anything else you would like?"
"Uh yes um is there any way I can get a job here?"
The girl smiled and revealed two squirrel like teeth.
"Well sure! We're always looking for extra hands. What are you good at?"
"Well I'm good with money." I said.
"Well then you can be the cashier! Our recent one quit so we need a new one."
"I'll be happy to do whatever I can."
"Great! Then come tomorrow around ten ok?"
"Sure!"
I shook hands with her and thanked her for the job and before I left I asked,
"What's your name?"
"Oshima Yuko." she said.
"Nice to meet you! I'm Matsui Rena."
"Nice to meet you as well. I'll see you tomorrow Rena!"
"Hai!"
I went home really happy that I had found a new job and it was with people I would actually like. I walked into the house and found Jurina and Mayu coloring on the table. Sae was on the couch holding her soon and Yuki was still at work. I walked over to Jurina and asked her how it day was and she said,
"Good!"
"That's good. You didn't get in trouble right?"
"Hai~"
"Good girl!"
I walked into the kitchen and drank some juice and then sat on the couch where Sae was. She was rocking him back and forth because it looked like he had a temper tantrum and Sae was trying to calm him down. As he held onto Sae's hand, I reached out and lightly patted his head. Sae smiled and said,
"Kids... You never know what they're gonna do."
"I agree."
I look over at Jurina and see her coloring and then suddenly she got up and walked over to me.
"Nee Rena look!"
She showed me a drawing of her and Mayu going to school together. It looked really cute and soon enough she will be going to school. I hope she'll be able to handle it when the time comes. For now though she's still a baby to me.
"Rena..."
"How come he gets to be held and I don't?" she asked.
"Eh?"
Jurina held out her arms and I understood what she meant. I picked her up and held her similar to Sae held her son. Jurina was bigger though so it was hard to support ber. I could feel her cuddling with me and soon enough she passed out. I picked her up and carried her into Mayu's room where I set her on the bed. Mayu walked in and sat in the bed with her and said I could leave. I wonder what exactly happened that made Mayu like Jurina so much. I shut the door and saw Yuki had just gotten home and looks like she was tired. I told her I got a job and she said she was happy for me and then walked into the kitchen where she grabbed a drink and sat on the couch. She carried her son into his room and then walked over to Sae and I.
"Long day nee?" Sae said.
"Yeah ever since Rena left the boss has been making everyone work."
"Ah sorry about that." I said.
"It's alright it's not as bad for me."
"Well come on Yuki I know how to make you relax."
Sae and Yuki went to their room and I went to mine. After a long and somewhat productive day, I was tired. I was about to fall asleep when suddenly I heard weird noise in the background. I focused on listening and I suddenly heard a moan coming from Yuki and Sae's room. I got up to see what they were doing and when I looked through a crack in the door, I felt my whole face turn red. I quickly shut the door and then ran to Mayu and Jurina's room. They were sound asleep which was good so I shut their door and then went back to mine. As I laid in my bed I could hear EVERYTHING Sae and Yuki were doing. I wanted to find something to mute everything but I had nothing. I took a pillow and tried to cover my ears from all the dirty sounds and talk. However they were really loud to me and even if I had headphones I would still hear it.
"Oh god Sae!"
I squealed a little on the inside and tried to black away the sounds but they just kept coming! I thought I was never going to be quiet and it would never stop. Then suddenly after a scream everything stopped. I thought they were finally done and I would finally get some sleep. Sadly to my disappointment, I heard Sae moaning now. Something told me I wasn't going to get any sleep at all tonight.
The next morning I walked into the kitchen really tired. Mayu and Jurina were getting ready for school while Yuki was about to leave for work. They kissed each other goodbye and then Yuki left. I walked over to Sae and said,
"I understand you guys have those feelings but could you guys keep it down? I could hear you two all night."
"What do you mean?" Sae said.
I waited for Jurina and Mayu to leave and then in a sexy voice I said,
"Oh god Sae!"
Sae's face turned red and nodded her head in understanding. I smiled and then headed off for my first day at work. I arrived at the shop right on time but the front door was locked. I waited for a while and soon after Yuko ran over carrying a large stack of boxes. She looked like she was having trouble and I was right when I saw her almost fall. I quickly ran over and caught the falling boxes and helped her inside.
"Ah thanks Rena!"
We set up shop and soon after customers came in. This place must be popular in the mornings because there was a lot of people here. I easily helped them and collected the money. Then after the morning rush, Yuko walked over and asked me to go to the back room and grab more flour. I walked over there and saw the flour and grabbed it. I started walking towards Yuko when I suddenly slipped on something and the flour got all over me. Yuko came in and when she saw me she said,
"Haha Rena you look like a ghost!"
"Mou! Help me!" I said.
We cleaned up most of the flour and then I went back go the register. At one point I saw little kids staring at the bread at the in the window. They were licking their lips and their eyes were wide. Soon after the mother came in with the two and they asked for one of the fancier dishes. However the mother said it was too expensive and the boys were very sad. I couldn't help but feel sorry for the boys so as they're mother turned away I snuck them the pieces of bread they wanted. They thanked me and left with their mother. I felt happy about it and then continued with my work. Around lunch time I decided to take my break and enjoy some melonpan. As I sat there eating, Yuko came over and handed me a small envelope.
"What's this for?" I asked.
"Your first pay check!" Yuko said.
"Wah arigatou!"
I took the envelope and opened it and was surprised to see so much money in it.
"Yuko-san this is too much! It's only my first day."
"Consider this a welcome bonus. But next time I catch you giving away free bread I'll have you run through the streets covered I'm flour screaming "I'm a ghost!" Understand?"
"Hai!"
I never realized Yuko found out about it. I should be more careful next time. After lunch I went back to work and the flow was pretty slow. Then when the work day ended I went home and brought back some bread for everyone to have. They were all happy and we ate good. During dinner I asked,
"How was everyone's day?"
"The stock is down as always." Sae said.
"The boss is still a tyrant." Yuki said.
"I got a new manga!" Mayu said.
"I'm going with Mayu to school tomorrow!" Jurina said.
"WHAT?!"
Everyone looked at Jurina in disbelief and Mayu smiled and said,
"Jurina graduated and is now going to go to school with me."
"When did this happen?" I asked.
"Today. The teacher wanted me to give this to you."
Mayu handed me a note and I read it. The note said Jurina is more advanced than the other kids and is now allowed to skip middle and head straight for high school. I couldn't believe it and was actually really worried about Jurina. Even though they say she's smart she still acts like a little kid. Is this really a smart choice? I looked at Jurina who smiled and said,
"I'm a big kid now so I can go to a big kid school now!"
"Well... I guess it's ok but Mayu..."
I got up and leaned into Mayu and whispered,
"If anything happens to her I'll have your head and feed your body to the dogs."
I saw Mayu tense and nod her head frantically. She agreed she would watch over Jurina and make sure nothing happens.
"Good then lets all go to bed. Oh and Sae remember our promise~"
Sae blushed and nodded her head and then whispered to Yuki what I had told her earlier Yuki also blushed and the two ran off to bed. Jurina and Mayu went to their room and I went to mine. Today was a good day for me but I was also worried about Jurina. Is she really ready for high school? I'm worried something bad might happen so I'm nervous. Hopefully though she'll be alright. I just wonder what the others will do.
