Since I’ve Entered the World of Romantic Comedy Manga, I’ll Do My Best to Make the Heroine Who Doesn’t Stick With the Hero Happy.

Chapter 75: Going to a Part-Time Job Interview.

Its been a week since I decided to go and find a part-time job.

I had already signed up for an interview, and todays the day it was scheduled, a saturday.  

A ten minute walk away from my house stood a coffee shop, and thats where I was heading.

Its in the opposite direction from the school, so getting there might be a bit of a hassle but its still acceptable.

The sound of the chirping birds echoed when I opened the door. I entered a retro style world. 

This was not a modern style cafe, but an old fashioned coffee shop.

I applied here because I feel like Id prefer the atmosphere of this shop over others.

The restaurant was quite spacious and since its the afternoon there werent many customers.

Welcome.

A man who looked around 50 approached me with a gentle smile.

Im Tsukasa Hisamura, Im here for the interview today.

Oh, So its you, Wonderful. Come on in, Come on in.

Un.

He didnt give me a signature-like business smile, but instead a very genuine one that made the corner of his eyes wrinkle. I followed him to the back of the shop.

Ahh, I havent done a part-time job interview in ages, Im so nervous

I entered a room with all the stock and lockers and sat opposite the old man.

Nice to meet you, Im Saito, the manager of this shop.

Nice to meet you, Im Tsukasa Hisamura. A pleasure to meet you.

The pleasure is all mine, Dont be too nervous. Ill just be having a look at your CV and have a chat with you.

Yes, um. Heres my CV.

Ah, Thank you Oh you go to Tojoin High. Its nice to be so close, you can commute very easily.

Yes, its only a ten minute walk away from my house.

Ahh, I see, Its good that I dont have to pay for transport.

The interview started with a light heater manner so it felt more like a simple chat rather than an intense interview.

The last part-time place I had worked at was a chain restaurant so the interview was a bit serious, maybe since this shop was privately owned the interview was way more relaxing.

Im actually more satisfied and happy this way.

What inspired you to start working part-time?

To be honest, its because I want to make some money.

Fufu, part-time jobs are like that. When youre a high school student, you want to have fun. Its a totally normal and healthy reason to apply for one.

A-Ah thank you.

Are you involved in any clubs?

No, Im not, so I can come in at around 4.

I see, Im glad to hear that. Are you free later today?

Eh? Ah, yes, theres nothing for me to do at home anyways.

So you can work immediately after this then?

Eh?

Will I be able to work immediately after this? Does this mean I got the job?

Uhh, does that mean I pass the interview?

Nn? Yeah.. Ive been looking for a part-timer and Hisamura-kun seems like a nice kid. Id like for you to join me as a part-timer, is that alright?

O-Of course! I look forward to working with you.

Ahh, I passed.

I already told Sei-chan and Rinke Im working a part-time job, so it would be awkward if I failed the interview.

So, can we start now?

Ahh, yes!

I see. Thats good. Of course youll be paid for today. You dont need to be so uptight, I just need you to learn the basics and customer service today.

Got it, thank you.

Heres your uniform. You can change into it here when you start, I dont have any pants for you so you can just use the shorts youre wearing right now. Hisamura-kun.

Yes, got it.

After giving me the uniform, the manager left. 

The uniform was a navy colored shirt with a black tie.

The ties arent the type that you can wear easily but a bonafide one where youre supposed to tie it yourself.

I also got a brown apron for the waist and below. I believe it was called a sommelier apron.

The overall colour theme of the restaurant was on the darker side, but I think it fits the atmosphere surprising well. Its also really calming.

Okay, I passed the interview and got a part-time job. Its time to work hard!

I started to undress and change when I heard the tinkling sound of the bell.

Maybe a customer had arrived, its almost lunchtime after all.

Ahh, yeah. I need to tell Rie that I had passed the interview and that I dont need lunch for today.

I took out my phone with my shirt off and was about to send Rie a message,

when the door to the back opened.

Eh?

Hmm?

I thought it was the manager who had walked in but rather it was a beautiful woman.

Her long flaxen air curled slightly at the edge giving her a gentle appearance.

Her face consisted of large droopy eyes. She gave off a gentle older sister vibe, the one that spoils you plenty.

Hmm? I feel like Ive seen her before, whats this Deja vu?

Wait Why am I calmly analysing this beauty whilst being shirtless?!

Im in the middle of changing clothes right now!

Ahh, is it possible that youre the new part-timer?

I was getting kind of antsy inside but the woman didnt seem to care and just began talking to me.

Eh, ah, uh. Yes.

I knew it! Ive only joined recently so I dont feel like a senpai much. Im nineteen this year, a sophomore in University, what grade are you in?

Ah, Im a high school sophomore.

Oh really? You seem so mature. I thought we were the same age.

We were having a totally normal conversation, except for the fact that I was completely shirtless at the moment.

Something about this woman makes her not particularly bothered about it, I guess shes fine with seeing a man topless.

I froze and immediately went to wear my shirt.

Excuse me, Ive never met you before and Im in the middle of getting dressed.

Hmm? This is the staff room right? Isnt it natural to be changing? Im going to change too then.

Im glad were on the same page wait what?!

You want to change now?!

Wait, I mean, we are supposed to change here, but

As I was organising my thoughts she suddenly started stripping.

O-Oi, why are you changing your clothes in front of me.

I panicked and looked in a different direction.

She seemed to be wearing a shirt, so she started to open it from the front button, which meant that her underwear wasnt visible, but her ample cleavage definitely was.

Eh? Because this is the place where you change your clothes, no?

Im a boy, so please wait for me to change first.

Why is she so defenseless?!

I already finished changing so Ill head outside.

Ahh, sorry for making you uncomfortable.

I left the room with my tie and apron.

Haah, whats with that woman?

Ahh, Hisamura-kun. So you met your colleague?

Yes, although I was surprised when she suddenly walked in.

Sorry, I forgot to tell her about Hisamura-kun.

Manager Saito apologised to me briefly.

No, its fine.

Ill introduce you to her again when she gets dressed and comes out.

So after a few minutes, as I was putting on my tie and learning how to clock in, she arrived.

Manager, sorry to keep you waiting.

Ahh, Tobise-san, nice timing.

Tobise..?

Where have I heard that name before?

I remember seeing her before. Ive definitely seen her somewhere before.

This is Tsukasa Hisamura-kun, he will be joining us today onwards.

N-Nice to meet you, Im Tsukasa Hisamura. [TLN: Tsukasa greeted her the way in which they introduce themselves to someone theyve never met before.]

Maybe Im just misunderstanding something, so Ill just greet her normally for now.

Didnt we meet before though?

Ehh? E-Excuse me, Did I meet you somewhere already?

Didnt we just meet behind the staff room? Did you forget about me already?

Ahh yes.

I know that Ive seen her before, but why cant I put my finger on it

But theres something about her that gives me the feeling of deja vu.

So Tsukasa Hisamura-kun, this is Marino Tobise who joined us just about a week ago.

Marino, Tobise?!

When I heard that name I gasped.

Yes this girl is

We havent met before.

But I know her.

Because-

Im Marino Tobise, nice to meet you.

-Its because she was another heroine from Ojojama.

TLN: Spynine is too fast ;-;. Huge thanks to Spynine.
