The plain and unnoticed me is no more

"Hey, eat slower. I was just saying that I'm hungry... but I was really hungry when I thought that you did something like that in front of Fred to keep me out of trouble..."

The dish that Sin had prepared for me was beef stew. It wasn't the recipe I taught him, it was what he originally knew.

And I was ashamed to say that I was really hungry.

I didn't feel it, but I was so nervous that I didn't know if I was hungry.

Now that I had returned to my daily routine and suddenly was struck by a feeling of hunger, I tasted a bite of his beef stew and carried the spoon to my mouth in a fascination with its deliciousness.

Sin looked at me like that, but his eyes were very gentle.

"It's really delicious... hey, Shin. Did you make this at the previous store?

"Hmm? No, this is my mother's taste. Say it's been a while since Taki said he wanted to eat it. Oh, it's delicious.... I'm glad it fits the owner's mouth."

Singh was praised for her mother's recipe and smiled very happy.

"Yes, I want you to tell me how to make it. Sin and Taki's mother were very good cooks. Is it your mother's influence that Singh is good at cooking?

"I guess so. Owner, how can I help you?

"Sure, I'll take it."

Thin has always wondered where I've been and what I've been doing, but he hasn't tried to tell me anything, and he's calmed me down with no other love.

For me now, this concern on his part was very thankful.

There are many painful things in my memories, especially when I remember when my grandfather was seriously injured.

Yes, there are desserts after meals, so make sure you have them.

Huh?

"Cheese tart. I got it in again."

Cheese tart has been my favorite since I was a kid.

There are a lot of regular customers who come to the dining room and say, "Thank you for always delicious food." They add sweets, but the cheese tart was a bit expensive for ordinary people to bring as a gift.

That said, even wealthy customers come, so occasionally luxury sweets are added. So I'm not surprised, but I kind of wondered who brought it this time.

"... hey, what kind of person are you putting it in? Chiyo's always picking it up when I haven't seen it, right?

"Ah... speaking of which, is it? I brought a few of them here once or twice a month, always wearing grey hunting, gray-haired... ah, and glasses."

"Grandpa?"

When I heard of my grandfather, I came with a pin.

If I hadn't met my grandfather at the club, he might have been unaware of it for a long time, but he said he would come back for dinner again. Also, that means I've come to eat before.

You were sneaking around with my favorite.

My grandfather doesn't usually wear glasses, but he may have borrowed them from someone he's with.

Fufu

"What are you laughing at?

"Maybe it's my grandfather. Can you tell me next time you're here?

Is the owner's grandfather the Duke of Norris? Not King Alford, is it?

Singh asked me a question.

Of course, Alford's grandfather can't come here every month.

The letter said that I wanted to go and see what it was like, but that's not a realistic story to think about.

"If you need Alford's grandfather, you'll soon find out. Fufufufu...."

After we had finished eating, we had a nice cup of tea and a sliced cheese tart. In the meantime, we were talking about sweets such as which tart was the most delicious, but when the conversation broke down, Singh finally came up with a topic about today.

"Your complexion has improved considerably.... owner. Have you forgotten what you told me? It's been a while since I told you to be self-managing."

Sin was a little angry.

You deserve to be angry.

Because he looked at me with his eyes on the brink of overwork and death.

Soon afterwards, his expression revealed that he was very worried about me. This time it was more spiritual than physical, but the blow was quite great.

"I'm sorry... I'm worried about Singh again."

When I apologized, Sin slightly shook his head sideways.

"That's not it... I don't want you to apologize. I wanted to tell you to take care of yourself more. I know these two aren't just people. If you ask me if it's useless, I can't refuse, and I know it's not my problem. Even if I knew, I couldn't leave him alone."

I have a fever in Shin's eyes. I was glad to be scolded.

"By the time you came here, you had been in a noble society with a lot of bad feelings. And I wonder if I've been having a bad feeling about being involved with someone like that again..."

Sin stopped talking without knowing how far to ask. The person involved was bad, and I felt frustrated that I could not hear it even if I wanted to hear more about it.

It was Will's shadow warriors that kept me quiet, so I decided to speak as far as I could.

"You know, Sin. I can't tell you who Fred is, and I can't tell you where he went tonight, but I've been helping with a night out somewhere."

Night party?

"My role is to replace a lady who suddenly can't attend. The customer's hair color and atmosphere are similar to mine, so the request came around this time. Besides, if you ask me, he was my relative. That's why I took over."

"Oh, it was different from the makeup when I went out, so I thought I might have disguised myself and done something."

Sin nodded and urged her to move on. I took a breath and started talking.

"So... this was a real coincidence, but the place I went tonight was where I used to go, and as soon as I saw the landscape, my memory lid fell off. Look, it's the memory lid that Leviant said before."

So, did you regain the power of the goddess?

"Yes, I remember all the memories that were sealed inside of me, and I managed to regain the power of the goddess. I think maybe it was because the memories I remembered included a painful event."

"Really... is that good? Or was it better not to remember?

Thin wondered whether he should be pleased with it and looked at me with a complicated look.

"For now, we can purify the fairies that have fallen into darkness. The painful past that was sealed should have been overcome if it were true, but I could only deal with it by putting it deep inside my heart. Ten years later, my feelings have come back to life, and I'm confused. Besides, I forgot that I caused a tantrum and injured my grandfather because I didn't go as I expected. I can't forgive myself."

I chewed my lips and put up with crying. I'm still mentally unstable, and I'm about to cry for a few things.

Sin looked at me like that and moved from the opposite seat to the next. And I started talking quietly, tapping my back, tapping, tapping, like a little girl.

"Then you should apologize to your grandfather. They're not angry, so I'm here to see what you like. You can apologize and refresh yourself the next time you come. Don't be so depressed. I don't know how you feel about hurting someone you like, but it's hard for Grandpa to see you like that.

As I listened to Sin's calmly speaking voice, I found that my feelings gradually calmed down.

"Well... when I see my grandfather, I want to talk a lot about my childhood. And I apologize. Thank you, Sin. I'm glad you waited. Otherwise, I've been thinking all night."

"It seems to have settled down a little. Well, you can rest now. Do you want me to stay by your side till you get some sleep?

Though Sin was going to make me laugh in the dark, and he would have joked about it, I really wanted him to.

"Um...."

"Fufu, I'm kidding. Then I won't go home anymore. I'll always ask you what happened... if it makes it easier for you to tell someone. No, I don't care if you're talking to Taki or Chiyo. So don't hold me alone. Remember, there are people who come to you when it's tough."

Sin put his hand on my head and stood up with a smile. And I unconsciously grabbed Singh's hand, trying to leave.

"Hmm? What's wrong?

"Ah... I'm sorry. It's nothing. Good night, I'll see you tomorrow."

Oh, good night.

Sin gently said so and left my room with the used dishes.

The next morning, when I went to the kitchen to make breakfast, it smelled like miso soup and Shin and Taki were there.

"Ah, good morning, Lana. Did you sleep well?

"Hello, owner. I prepared breakfast on my own, but you don't mind?

I was surprised at the unexpected behavior of the two, but I was relieved by their kindness.

"Good morning, Sin, Taki. Thank you. I'll make something else."

When they entered the kitchen, Fred and Liam peeled vegetables with a little familiar hand in a place they could not see behind the shelves.

"Hmm... what are you two doing?!?
