Chapter 5: The Christmas Incident

After I finished my job on Christmas, I started walking back to the school.

“That was fun, wasn’t it, Master?!”

Most likely, Ted had gone through the kids’s rough “baptism.” The proof of it was on his face, which still held traces of the scribbles the kids had drawn on him.

“But still, I had no clue you were working at an orphanage. The pay wasn’t that high, was it?” Ted asked.

“Yeah, not really,” I replied.

“Do you have some kind of ties to orphanages?” Ted asked, suddenly cutting right to the heart of things.

“Not really... Working there was just a simple way to kill time.”

I’d never revealed the secret of my reincarnation to Ted, even though I’d grown up with him. Of course, I had no intention of revealing it to anyone in the future either. I doubted anyone would understand me, and I was sure revealing the truth would only lead to more headaches down the road.

“That makes sense! I can’t even imagine you taking care of kids!” Ted cackled.

In this guy’s case, he never really thought too deeply about my circumstances, so it was easy to be around him. For those with a troubled past, like me, it was easy to have a long relationship with people like Ted, who were simple and straightforward.

“Hm? Isn’t that...”

As we walked and talked, Ted noticed a certain familiar silhouette. It was Zyle, our classmate whom we’d recently started spending more time with.

“Hey, Zyle, whatcha up to?!” Ted called out.

Zyle was acting strange; his head was hung low as he trudged through the snow, and overall he seemed completely lifeless. In each hand he held a bouquet of flowers. Those flowers look fresh. I’m guessing he just bought them.

“Oh... Ted... Abel...”

Hm. This is the first time I’ve seen Zyle so down in the dumps. For some reason the way he acted made it seem as if both the bouquets were withering.

“Ted...women are stupid. You can’t trust them!”

“What happened?! Are you okay?!” Ted exclaimed.

It seemed that something had happened. Now that I think about it, Zyle had cryptically said that he had plans today.

“Dammit... I was used!” Zyle exclaimed. “She asked for all these presents and then she said that she has plans on Christmas so she’ll be taking off from work! Who does that?!”

“O-Oh that really sucks, Zyle. By the way, who was she?” Ted asked.

“She works at the neighborhood maid café. She’s the most popular girl, and the one customers ask for the most.”

Both Ted and I fell silent. It seems like this girl has her own circumstances. If so, then I don’t think we can really blame her for how she acted.

“It’s okay, Zyle! There are so many more fish in the sea!”

“Ted... You’re gonna forgive me after how cocky I was acting about having plans today?”

“Of course! The Unpopular Guy Alliance is forever!” Ted declared, sticking up his thumb.

“T-Ted... You’re such a good guy!” Tears began pouring out of Zyle’s eyes.

Good grief. I thought the alliance fell apart, but now our bond has apparently deepened further? This alliance is all over the place.
