To save the second male lead of a mafia novel!

Chapter 32- Shall we dance?

That means she already has a crush on Cain...

How can I have her end up with Endymion?

He must be very hurt by hearing those words from her mouth but he knows well that he doesn't have a chance.

Why Endymion? You are worthy of her love.Why don't you try to win her over and stop watching from the shadows?

I will help you win her over Endymion!

I hear them get up from their seats.

"Shall we go for a dance and get our minds off things for a second?"Endymion said.

I looked up and they were already gone.

Maybe I should leave now?

I don't need to stay any longer.It is their moment now.

I get up to leave.

"I am sorry miss?"

Oh the waiter from before.

"I have left the money on the table sir.No need to worry!"I said with a smile.

I continued to walk towards the exist.

"Wow! They are so suitable for each other!"

"Look at him!"

"She sure knows how to move her body elegantly!"

"I want to dance too!"

All those voices and cheers...

What is going on on the above floor?

"Um miss?"the waiter said with hesitation.

"Yes?"I reply.

He extended his hand.

"I know it isn't my place to ask this but... Would you like to dance as well miss?"

What?

I looked at him suprised.

"Why?"I asked.

He flinched.

"I saw you looking at that couple that was there"he said and pointed at the table that Endymion and Lisa sat.

Ah....

I covered my face in embarrassment.

"Was I that obvious? Do you think they noticed me sir?"I said.

He moved his hands intensely.

"No madam! I am sure they didn't.On the other hand, you seemed rather lonely here alone.And..um...since everyone is having a great time...I was wondering if..."

Is he piting me?

"Did I really seem lonely? I am sorry but I wasn't? I work for that man and was really curious about who he was meeting so I decided to follow him.Haha"

That isn't a lie right?

But I was really that lonely?

I was so focused on them.

I am rather happy that they may get together-I am here for that mission anyways-

At that moment I felt a hesitation to say those words in my mind.

What?

Am I tired already?

Ahh!! Enough!

I held the waiter's hand.

"I also want to take my mind away from some thoughts.So- Would you like to dance with me?"

We went together on the second floor.

"Woah! It looks so ...How do I say it? Wealthy? Ahahaha."

The waiter nodded.

"Here come only the most popular and rich families miss.It was rather a suprise I saw you visit us today."

We went on the dancefloor together.

"Would you mind miss?"he bowed and offered me his hand.

"Of course!"I accepted and took his hand in mine.

We started swinging around.

"You don't really know how to dance sir?"I said and chuckled.

He got frustrated.

"Ah no no miss..."

It is getting a bit awkward.

I would love to see Endymion and Lisa dance but they are too far for me to see.

Ah!

I have an idea.

I started taking the lead.

I will show you how to dance huh!

I guided the waiter and myself closer to Endymion and Lisa.

The waiter didn't notice anything.That makes things less embarrassing.

I went close enough so I could see them dance.

They keep smiling at each other and laugh like small children.

I wish I could admire Endymion making that expression forever.

I want him to make this exact happy expression.

I looked at Lisa.

I am sorry Lisa.You died because I appeared at the ball...

I don't know how to even stop this feeling in my heart.

Make him happy please.

You are the one in... his ...heart.

I hesitated to say that again.

What is wrong with me?

Maybe I still haven't forgiven myself for that incident.

I stopped looking and focused on the waiter.

The dance ended and the waiter left by waving bye.

The next song is about to start.

Endymion and Lisa haven't left the stage yet.

Everyone is admiring them.

I should as well.

I kept looking at them but for some reason my eyes couldn't leave Endymion alone.

I want to always watch him even from afar.

Oh...How much I wish I could dance with him one day...

Just for once.

At that moment I remember when I cried in front of him.

I know that was embarrassing but he didn't judge me much.

He could have kicked me out since work and personal life are two totally different things.

But he didn't...He gave me a chance to be next to him even as a maid.

I am kinda glad I can be close to him.

I raised my eyes to look at him again.

But the unexpected happened.

"He met my eyes!"I whispered.

Oh no! He will recognise me if I stay here any longer!
