8:00 p.m.

 

After Tennoji-san’s lessons were over, I took the car that was provided to me back to the Konohana family residence.

 

“I’m back.”

 

“Thank you for your hard work, Itsuki-san.”

 

As soon as I entered the mansion, I found myself face to face with Shizune.

 

“I think I’ll be back at this time for a while.”

 

“I understand. Can I ask you what you learned just to be sure?”

 

“Yes.”

As we walked to my room, I explained what Tennoji-san had taught me.

 

“Something like that…”

 

“I see. You should thank Tennoji-sama again next time you visit …….  From what I’ve heard, she’s been teaching you quite a bit.”

 

“…… That’s right.”

 

This is something that I have also realized.

Tennoji-san said she was also having a productive experience, but from the other side of the coin, I was the one who was benefiting. I’ll thank her again.

 

“But why did you prioritize learning table manners?”

 

“Oh, that’s …”

I’m a little embarrassed, but I think it’s okay to tell Shizune.

I explain my intentions.

 

“So that’s what you meant.”

 

Shizune nodded her head in understanding.

 

“I am glad to see that you have not forgotten your role as a caretaker.”

 

“Well, …… that’s why I’ve been learning so much from Tennoji-san.”

 

Shizune smiled in satisfaction as I said that.

 

“Then, since the young lady wants to meet with Itsuki-san, please head over there as soon as possible.”

“Oh, no self-defense lessons?”

 

“Once the dance class starts, you’ll be exhausted. Thinking about the future, let’s temporarily lower the priority of self-defense lessons.”

 

As a result of the discussion with Tennoji-san, the dance class is scheduled to start tomorrow or the day after. Since we can’t hold the dance class in a café, we needed to arrange a venue first, and since I hadn’t done that yet, I didn’t have a dance class today.

 

“Besides, the dojo is often occupied these days.”

 

“Occupied?”

 

I asked back, and Shizune gave me a complicated look.

 

“Because you beat up the Konohana family’s guards before, their pride was seriously hurt. …… Since then, more and more people have been training at the dojo.”

 

“…… I’m sorry about that.”

“It’s not Itsuki-san’s fault. On the contrary, it was a good for them.”

 

Shizune said with a sigh.

 

“If you’re planning to become a bodyguard for the Konohana family in the future, I can start giving you self-defense lessons right now. …… What do you think?”

 

“…… I have no such plans at the moment, so I’ll pass.”

 

“I see. I’m sorry.”

 

It’s a shame …….

Shizune is a person who has a hard time knowing the line between a joke and a real feeling, but I thought that just now sounded a little bit like a real feeling.

 

Is that …… okay?

Is such a life plan even possible?
