A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World
Episode 36: Let's Have Tea at the Cafe.
When I left the grocery store, it seemed like lunch was past sometime.
"Miss Alice. Can I have an appointment at the cafe?
"Yeah. It's a little early in time, but you might be able to get in if your seat is available.
"Okay. Shall we have lunch and tea at the cafe?
"Yes. Let's do that.
------------------------
Earlier, I arrived at the store where Alice made an appointment.
"Dear Takeo. This is the delicious cafe.
"Do you go out of your way to add 'delicious'?
"Yes. Excellent.
There weren't many people when I went inside.
"Miss Alice. Welcome."
I would be a clerk. My old aunt greets me.
"It's a little faster than booking, could that be good?
"I don't mind.
and guide Alice and Takeo to their seats.
Passed to the window seat.
"What I was asking for, I'll be with you in a little while, so could you get me a menu for lunch?
When she gets to her seat, yes, Alice tells the clerk and opens the menu the clerk had.
Takeo is also given a menu.
"Hi," I received, looking inside, but...
It was just bread, salad, pasta and wine... nothing else?
I guess I don't have a refrigerator, so I decided to think about it.
"Has Takeo made up his mind?
"Yeah."
"Bye. I'll take this sandwich.
"I'm the same as Miss Alice.
"I'm in awe.
and the clerk heads to the kitchen.
"... you weighed it?
Alice looks at it with jito eyes.
"Since I've been trying to make it the same as Miss Alice from the beginning.
Takeo says with a smile.
"If you tell me, I chose Takeo's.
"Hmm? I wanted to eat the same thing as Miss Alice.
"Huh?"
Alice is a little surprised. Think a little... blush.
"Master Takeo always tells you to take that away, doesn't he?
"You're out of your mind. You're only going to do it in front of the lady?
"You're making fun of me!
and a slightly obstinate face.
"Yes, yes, I'm not angry. I'm not angry. I don't have a beauty in the corner.
"Mmm..."
Alice protests even more with her jitsy eyes.
Takeo ignores Alice like that and glances out the window.
"Good city," I honestly thought.
It's only been two days since I've been in the city, but it's lively and people have a smile.
The place where Takeo was was was a city, but his smile had not overflowed so far.
"Dear Takeo. How about this city?
Alice asks abruptly.
"It's a good city. Everyone has a smile.
Well... Alice, sometimes it's because I'm with the lady.
"Right.
Because I only show good places for it.
"I guess.
Only Main Street on Main Street was guided.
Is the store you've been to the top...?
"Yeah. Customer service. assortment. Technology. Delivery time.Pride. They're all definite stores.
But do Takeo have business talent because he talks to people in such a store?
"There won't be.
Takeo says clearly.
"All I do is show off my knowledge.
I didn't even flash something. I didn't even make it. I just knew it.
"I... no. We find value in that knowledge.
I've only been here 3 days. Yet it's unusual to have had one practical clothing business meeting.
You won't be able to do it normally.
"Hehe. You've been buying me for a long time.
Well. Because that coat was so enthusiastic over there.
... Miss Alice. Do you enjoy being with me?
"Yes! Very! It shows thoughts that I don't even think about.
Let me keep you entertained.
Alice says, sparkling her face.
"Not at all. My boss expects too much from his men.
... but will you be Yuruyul so that you can live up to your expectations?
"Oh? Not as soon as possible?
Alice laughs bitterly.
"Ha. If you hurry up, I won't have time to enjoy Miss Alice.
You're going to relax.
"?... how about that"
When Alice tried to ask.
"I brought you a meal.
and what Alice ordered comes.
Bread with tomato sauce caught in the ham I ate the first night came out.
... Takeo eats wondering if this is a standard combination if it's a snack.
We'll both be done eating soon. and
"Give me what you were booking.
Alice places an order with the clerk.
and soon, the clerk with the Madeleine will come.
"This is one dish I recommend.
and Alice stretches her chest.
It's... eye blessing.
"Okay. I'd like to say, what is this vial?
A vial was placed with Madeleine.
"It's honey. Looks like the sweetheart will."
"I say, don't call me. Let's keep this up.
"Yes."
and Alice starts eating forks well.
Takeo also gets his hands on it after seeing Alice eat it.
"It's solid, but it's delicious.
"Right.
and Alice is pleased.
Takeo thought he would try to make a treat later that he could make himself.
