I unwittingly yelled after going through the letter that came along with the furniture.
Kami-samaās room looked totally different after the things had been moved.
I slumped on the new chair that was just brought in, then rested my elbows near the edge of the round table.
āSo, just what am I to Liddy all this time, then!?ā
Half of me was bitter, while the other half was astounded. I heaved a deep sigh.
If we werenāt friends, then it would mean that she must have seen me as a brazen guy freeloading for food.
Moreover, weāre not even friends, so I mustāve been too rude for teasing her endlessly ā
These thoughts raced through my mind and I grimaced.
āā¦I canāt refute it.ā
I had been extremely rude to the point that I couldnāt even justify it myself.
Asking for food during our first meeting, cracking jokes, and sponging more food off her afterward ā ugh, even I cringed at how shameless I had been, like, I would totally say āwhatās up with her?ā without a thought if I was in her shoes.
āā¦but itās not like Iāll do that with just about anybody.ā
No matter how shameless I am, I still have that sense of guilt whenever I ask something without anything to return.
I was also planning to return the favor through other means one day.
I donāt have any idea when that would be ā still, I could accept it because I thought we can still be together despite that vague future.
āā¦Well, I really donāt know when thatāll be. But still, sending me all these stuff!!!ā
I bitterly sighed as I looked all around me.
Kami-samaās narrow and poorly furnished room was now packed to the brim with fine furniture that looked out of place.
āWhatās with that ānone of those are expensiveā, huh!? Are you kidding me? Theyāre all fit for aristocrats!!!ā
Thereās a round table with dainty ornaments, and two chairs.
The bed was soft, and the two-seater sofa was fluffy. Thereās an ornate shelf that looked like it was already an decor by its own after setting it against the wall.
Even so, I carefully screened all of them and only picked the ones that were suitable for Kami-samaās room.
Kami-sama himself didnāt like gaudy objects, so I chose the low-key ones that were sparingly decorated, but here we are.
I was reminded once again of her status as the daughter of the duke.
By the way, I requested the delivery guys to send all the things that didnāt fit back to Lidianne.
Well, Iām also an aristocrat myself, being part of the countās house, but I had already totally adapted to this destitute lifestyle that the thought of throwing them didnāt occur to me.
āAh, but it might be a blunder on my part, huh.ā
I pouted and glared at the letter before sighing again.
I mean well, but I wonder if sheād take it the wrong way.
Did I overstep again? ā she will probably think like that, and it might make her anxious and worried.
The thought of her fretting about this was really spot on that I couldnāt help but smile wryly to myself.
āI must do something about thisā¦Really, what a troublesome friend!ā
.
I shook my head slightly then raised my head from poring over the letter.
Kami-sama was in front of me, sitting across the table.
Er, rather than sit, maybe itās more accurate to say heās āridingā it.
He couldnāt get on the chair properly because he wasnāt used to it. I caught a glimpse of him as he was about to slide off the chair, and it made me laugh, but letās set that aside for now.
āKami-samaā¦ Erm, thereās something that I want to request.ā
Kami-sama looked embarrassed to death, quivering as he tried to climb up the chair again, so I called out to him.
āSince things are like this, can I invite somebody over? Perhaps, tomorrow ā I also want to thank her for the furniture.ā
When I thought about it, I realized that I was always the one being invited.
I couldnāt muster the desire to invite somebody over to my personal room back at the lodging house, and Kami-samaās room was empty.
Kami-sama was a bit introverted, so I would visit Adoracion-samaās mansion on my ownā¦
āIt isnāt a bad idea to welcome people here from time to time. Well, I canāt do anything grand compared to Liddy, thoughā¦ā
Kami-sama probably wouldnāt act unpleasant towards Lidianne.
If Adoracion-sama was also here, then Kami-sama might enjoy himself, too.
Lufure-samaā¦ could just come if he wanted to.
I imagined how lively the room would be, and a smile unwittingly crept on my face as I inquiringly peeked at Kami-sama.
āSo, how about it, Kami-sama?ā
Of course, it would still be up to the master of the room whether he would allow people to come over.
But, I was pretty sure that he would allow me to invite them.
I was looking forward to it ā but Kami-sama looked baffled as he quivered.
āEhā
His voice was somewhat strained, but it wasnāt because he didnāt approve of my request.
It sounded much more suspicious, fundamentally dubious, as if he couldnāt believe his ears.
āEleanor-san. Are you perhaps telling me that you still plan to stay in this room tomorrow?ā
Why are you still coming here ā it sounded as if he was implying that, so I blinked.
Eh.
ā¦.Eh.
