Chapter 143: The Boastful Petty Person_2
"I'm also talking about serious stuff... Don't you want to?"
"That... let's set it aside for now," Haruka Yuzan coughed twice, before swiftly changing the topic,
"Lately, since the coffee shop is undergoing renovations, Chiba and I need to go to school, and Sister Reiko has to work, so, when you are at home, could you find some time to check on the cafe? Make sure they don't slack off or anything."
"What! You want me to run errands!" Misaki Saki pouted, expressing her reluctance.
"No, no, no!" Haruka Yuzan laughed and shook his head, finally sitting up and placing the little one "down" in front of him. Her tiny body was like a doll, easily moved around.
The girl's bright eyes held a clear foolishness, making her look like a simple and harmless good kid.
When their eyes met, Haruka Yuzan suddenly put on a serious expression, causing even Misaki Saki to sit up straight instinctively,
"Misaki, this isn't about running errands!"
"Then what is it?"
"You are being endowed with an immensely grand authority to decimate!!"
"Huh?"
"Think about it, in ancient times, when an emperor had something built, who was the most impressive person?"
"The emperor?"
"Wrong!"
"The ministers?"
"Wrong!"
"Then who is it?"
"It's those who went to supervise! With a single word, they could prevent others from making money! Everyone would have to consult you! By then, you could walk around with your head held high, inspecting back and forth! They would all have to greet you kindly, and consult you about everything!!!"
"Huh?"
While the girl was still trying to wrap her head around it, Haruka Yuzan grabbed Misaki Saki's delicate shoulder, the sensation of her soft skin, and the look of utter bewilderment on her face,
"By then, you wouldn't be Misaki Saki anymore!"
"Then... what would I be?" The little one tilted her head and asked inquisitively, a kind of dumbfounded innocence showing in her clear eyes.
"You would be Lady Misaki! You would be the prosecutor!! The most outstanding kind! So imposing!!" Haruka Yuzan declared with earnest conviction, his eyes brimming with firm resolve!
"Hiss!"
With that, Misaki Saki couldn't help but gasp, her eyes that had been confused were suddenly filled with a sense of duty, and her simple mind couldn't afford to think too much,
She only caught onto two words from the boy's speech, Lady Misaki and imposing!!!
Could it really be her day?
Seeing the little one taking the bait, Haruka Yuzan continued, "Plus, it's the coffee shop we are building together! It's a common endeavor for all of us, and it's like your artwork, it's been given life by being created!"
"Would you really have the heart to neglect it?"
"I would not!" Misaki Saki quickly shook her head, the girl now completely forgetting that she had almost zero involvement in all the coffee shop's construction...
"So, Lady Misaki, could you take some time out of your busy schedule to look after your 'child' starting tomorrow?!!"
"I can!" Misaki Saki nodded vigorously.
"No, show me your passion, Lady Misaki!"
"I can!" The little one raised her cute head and shouted....
Fortunately, the room was at the far end of the corridor, and the villa had good sound insulation, otherwise Misaki Saki's fervor would have woken up Chiba Shimizu and Reiko Onodera...
"Alright, alright, I can feel your passion now. So, I'll leave this matter to you, Misaki!"
Haruka Yuzan patted the girl's shoulder gravely, as if a general were issuing an order to a soldier...
"Mhm mhm, leave it to me! I promise to complete the mission!"
However, it seemed like the girl had been... bamboozled by Haruka Yuzan...
Darn it, that unbidden sense of mission!
"Alright, it's time to sleep...."
"Huh?"
"Umm Umm Umm!"
"Ow, ow, ow, ow!"
....
"Ah, the breeze of the early morning! It truly is delightful."
"Classmate Haruka, it's already noon now."
"That would be the afternoon sun, making one feel lethargic...."
"That's no excuse for sleeping in your first class..."
June 1, Tuesday, the weather was clear and somewhat inducing lethargy,
At least, that's what Haruka Yuzan thought....
In the activity room,
The girl sat in a chair, with the half-opened gauze window behind her letting in a warm breeze. Her silver hair was slightly lifted by the wind, indeed, as the boy said, somewhat inducing lethargy.
"This morning was an accident, I was too tired last night....."
The lethargic boy sat on another chair, his black jacket casually open, revealing the white shirt underneath, giving off an extremely relaxed vibe, though,
Right then, he was making excuses to the icy Class President about the mistake in the morning.
Chiba Shimizu closed the book and lifted her gaze, revealing her cold, flawless face,
"So, what was so important that it kept Classmate Haruka up all night?"
In her icy eyes, there was not a trace of emotion, pure enough to make Haruka Yuzan feel a profound purification and release from deep within his soul,
It's incredible, being with the girl, he was unable to harbor any shameful thoughts besides a clear head,
"Would you believe me if I said I spent the whole night thinking of a name for the coffee shop?"
Chiba Shimizu said nothing, while Haruka Yuzan shifted his gaze away and said casually,
"Like, Seiyu Cafe? Chitose Cafe? Harumizu..."
He blurted out several names on the spot, all of which Haruka Yuzan had just come up with,
