POV (Point of View)

Chapter 38: Lost Cantabile

Cantabile is an Italian word which means 'smooth flowing'.

In her world where everything sails smoothly, a ripple will disturb the flow. 

"Ta-dah!" Two pairs of purple eyes looked at the photo in a certain excited black-haired's phone that she just flaunted.

"What's this, Sarina-chan?"

"Hehe~ This is the new contract that I signed yesterday. I don't really know what happened but it's like there has been a miracle." The two males looked at one another, one is slightly confused.

"According to this contract, both me and Nana-chan don't have to work at nighttime. Instead, we can work in the restaurant from one to five o'clock in the afternoon only. Do you know what's even more awesome? This has to happen when Miss Hana adjusted my schedule to eight to eleven o'clock. Meaning, I can work in the afternoon after my classes. It's the perfect schedule ever!" Exclaimed Sarina who has to stop herself from jumping all over the main entrance of Suntory Hall.

"But there's more! The restaurant raised our salary from 10,000 to 100,000 Yen! Oh my God! I don't really get it, but I can finally say that God loves me so much!" She squealed again, making the brothers quiet. But this was broken by Ran who had an idea.

"That's great, Sarina-chan. It's good to know that you found a job that pays big. That way, you can save lots of money." Suggested the eldest Haitani with his usual smile...

"Oh, that's part of my plan, too, once I pay you back with everything that you did for Pops." ...which soon disappeared as he heard this.

"What?"

"I computed my salary, Ran-kun. Look." Then, she did the Maths in the man's face.

"If I constantly pay you for fifteen straight months, my debt to you will be paid." And that's how the man's grin got replaced with an unamused grin.

"What...does that mean?" was all he managed to reply. Which was responded to by his little sibling.

"That just means, Brother..." The brothers met eyes.

"...that she doesn't have to keep working for you as a maid." Ran couldn't explain if what Rindou had said triggered him or the way he said it. Because while his little brother was saying these words, he had a smug on his face.

That fueled his mind with irritation. 

This cute little brother of mine had something to do with it. I just know it. I can totally feel it in my bones.

"No. I plan to keep serving you two if that's okay." Once again, two pairs of eyes batted back to her direction, who is now smiling from ear to ear.

"Wha—But why? If you paid for everything, there is no need for you to continue your maid duties!" The youngest has now raised his voice.

"You really wanna get rid of me that badly, Rin-sama? Didn't I tell you that I plan to annoy you for the rest of my life?" That irked Rindou. BIG TIME.
