The sun filled my room with warm rays in the morning. Everything looked brighter. I thought as I laid in bed, "I should get a job to pay Aphmau for living here, but I don't know where any jobs are." I lift myself off of the bed and start to go out of my room and down the stairs, "I'll just ask Aphmau if there are any good jobs around."

After breakfast, I slowly walk up to Aphmau's room. "Aphmau," I knocked on her door, "Can I come in?"

"Yeah!" She called back from inside her room.

I pushed the door open and looked in to see her and Zane sitting in the room once again. "Did I interrupt something?" I ask worriedly.

"No, no," Said Aphmau smiling, "Did you need something."

"Yeah, I wanted to know if there is anywhere to work near here."

"Why do you need a place to work?"

"Well I want to pay you for a bit of the bill you get, you can't take care of everything."

Aphmau laughed, "If you don't find a job you like then it's fine. Take as much time as you need. I remember one job that Kawaii-Chan has."

"What is it?"

"She works at a maid cafe nearby," Aphmau laughed and looked at Zane who's face was completely red.

I stared at Zane, "Is there something wrong?"

"N-No let's just not talk about the maid cafe," Zane responded.

"Aww come on, (Y/N) would look cute in a maid outfit don't you think? Just imagine it," Aphmau teased him with a smirk on her face.

Zane's face was a dark shade of red as he looked away trying to cover his flushed features.

"Aw, come on Zane, don't look away!" Aphmau continued to tease and poke Zane while he tries to swat her away.

I backed out of the room slowly, "I-I'll be sure to check that place out," I nervously laughed and shut the door before they could respond. 'That was for sure weird.'

------------

I tried my best to get Aphmau to tell me where Kawaii-Chan's house is after Zane left. I had to pry it from her for a few minutes but, thankfully, she spilled the beans. As soon as I got Kawaii-Chan's address, I left Aphmau's room quickly and bolted through the front door so that I didn't have to explain to her why I was going.

The reason I was going is because of the job that Aphmau told me about at the maid cafe. Of course, being a maid does not appeal to me at all but I thought I might as well ask Kawaii-Chan about it.

Walking to Kawaii-Chan's house was not that difficult because it was just down the street. It took me about 10 minutes to get there. Once I finally came up to the house that Aphmau gave me the address for, I knocked on her door and took one step backwards.

Thankfully, Aphmau introduced me to Kawaii-Chan before I move in so I wasn't a stranger knocking on her door, asking questions about where she worked.

I stood outside her door a couple of minutes until finally giving up. I walked down the stairs of her house and stepped on a branch making someone with a high voice shush me. I whipped my head to the side to see Kawaii-Chan looking through the bushes on the side of her house. I crouched beside her quietly, trying not to break her focus on what she was doing.
