63. Hug around waist
Satomi doesn’t usually visit Saiya at her job, since the area around her work is somewhat sketchy. Not safe for a cute girl like Satomi, right? She secretly wonders how Saiya does it. She’s really cool, and really strong, so everyone must be intimidated by her! That must be it!!
But Saiya hasn’t answered her phone all night, and that’s unlike her! She usually sneaks in a little time on her break to text Satomi back. Satomi knows it’s probably nothing, but she’s gotten into her own head over this little predicament. So she’s gone out, past the time she normally sleeps, and arrives at Saiya’s place of work.
She can feel everyone’s eyes on her as she requests Saiya. Who wouldn’t stare at a lost-looking lolita-clad girl requesting the famous hostess? But it still makes her a little uncomfortable.
She’s told to make herself comfortable, something she can’t quite do in this situation, but she hears laughter behind her and a girl, she can only assume that she’s another hostess - looks at her.
“Oh, are you… one of Saicchan’s school friends?”
The girl smiles warmly, and it’s an inviting change of pace.
“Yes, I guess you could call it that, heehee! She - uh…” A pause from Satomi’s end. “…has tonight’s homework and she hasn’t responded!”
The other girl nods, and knowingly smiles.
“Ah, I can pull her for a few seconds if y–”
And that’s when Satomi feels a gentle pair of arms wrapping around her waist. She relaxes, breathing in the Saiya’s gentle jasmine fragrance, a content sigh escaping from her lips.
“You can run along, Ayano-chan. I’ll take care of Satomi-hime from here, okay?”
Saiya gives Satomi a knowing squeeze and releases the other girl. Ayano doesn’t need to be told twice, and flashes a victory sign.
Satomi closes her eyes, a wave of relief washing over her.
“I was…just a little worried…”
“I’m sorry, the manager took my phone. He thought I wasn’t myself tonight…I just couldn’t stop thinking about you.”
Satomi blushes as Saiya laughs.
“Sorry, sorry~ I didn’t want you to worry at all… let me escort you home, Satomi-hime. All this trouble you went through…for me. Je t’aime.”
