CHAPTER 700: CHAPTER 428: WORKING AT A MAID CAFÉ WITH MY WIFE

Coming out of the ice cream shop, Uesugi Sakura led Hanabi along the commercial street, she was really happy, especially when buying little trinkets for herself.

Uesugi Sakura bought her a pair of bunny ears to wear on her head, she held her head and repeatedly asked him if it looked good.

"Could I say it doesn’t look good on you?" Uesugi Sakura laughed, "Where do you want to go next?"

"Photo booth!" Hanamaru Hanabi put away the bunny ears.

"It seems to be the usual thing."

"But Hanabi really likes it; all the photos we take during dates are kept in a box, each photo is a memory of a time, going to take photos like this every time, isn’t it nice?"

"Alright, as you say."

"Sakura, come with Hanabi! Hanabi knows where we can find one."

Uesugi Sakura couldn’t argue, he could only be led by the shorter girl in front of him.

They arrived at a roadside photo machine, inside the cramped space the two squeezed together, Uesugi Sakura closed the door and sat looking at the garish electronic screen in front of them.

He didn’t understand, but Hanamaru Hanabi did, knowing exactly which buttons to press.

"Choose the heart effect, also cat ears! And finally, some whiskers, the photo effect should be a bit pink."

Uesugi Sakura saw the preview effect on the screen, his face adorned with pink hearts, cat ears, and cat whiskers, which totally didn’t match his handsome face!

He looked completely unable to accept it.

Hanamaru Hanabi also had it, but since she was a girl, she only looked cuter.

"Wait a minute!"

"What’s wrong?"

"Choosing effects like this is too strange, can’t it be simpler?" Uesugi Sakura reached out to change it.

"No way!" Hanamaru Hanabi stopped him, then pouted and said, "Before, I always listened to Sakura, this time listen to Hanabi, Hanabi wants to see the cute Sakura."

"This..." Uesugi Sakura glanced at his onscreen self, trying his best to persuade her, "It doesn’t look cute like this."

"Cute, very cute!"

"It’s just adding a pink effect and cat ears...how about we change it?"

"Dame."

"...Alright then."

Seeing Uesugi Sakura agree, Hanamaru Hanabi happily pulled on his arm, wanting him to form a heart with her for the photo.

Uesugi Sakura could only look at his pink self on the screen with a speechless expression.

"Sakura, meow for me."

"Meow (listlessly)."

...

Exiting the photo booth, Hanamaru Hanabi happily stored the photo back in the blue bag hanging at her waist.

"After so long, are you satisfied?"

"What does Sakura mean?"

"The date, of course."

"Not enough! It’s never enough! We need many more dates! Months, years, decades, even centuries aren’t enough!"

Uesugi Sakura couldn’t help but laugh: "You even want decades, by then we’ll be old."

"Even when we’re old, we can go on dates...Sakura will take Hanabi out again...to stroll, buy pretty jewelry, eat street food...our pace might be slower, but it’ll be very happy."

Hanamaru Hanabi paused here, folding her hands in front of her skirt, looking up with her beautiful eyes and asked:

"But... when Hanabi is old... she won’t be as pretty as now."

"As if I’ll still look good when I’m old," Uesugi Sakura wanted to pat her on the head.

Hanamaru Hanabi didn’t dislike this action; she once used to rub into his palm, but now, since they were on the street, she naturally avoided him, stepping behind.

"Sakura, Hanabi really looks forward to our next date, will you take me again?"

She stood by the street, with the bustling scene behind her, her hands interlocked behind her back, bowing slightly, a gust of wind blew, lifting her hair, her skirt, and she smiled, clearly just a simple pretty smile, yet to Uesugi Sakura, everything behind her seemed blurred and ethereal...

The streetlights, streets, people, sounds, only she was clear right in front of him.

Uesugi Sakura’s gaze was dazed, saying dotingly to her cute little face:

"I will, always."

————————

Today’s date made Hanabi a very happy girl, perhaps too happy, she disappeared by the afternoon.

Hanamaru Hanabi at home changed into a black dress, walking gracefully, when she went out, she sideways sat on the back of Uesugi Sakura’s bike, wrapping her arms around his waist.

She found the scenery along the way uninteresting, turning her head to ask Uesugi Sakura who was pedaling in front:

"Sakura, do you want to see Hanabi in a maid outfit?"

Uesugi Sakura was startled, thinking that wasn’t it the small request he made to Hanabi in the morning? She still hadn’t agreed to it yet.

"Does Sakura want to see it?"

"Yes, of course, I do."

"Hanabi can wear it just for Sakura, Hanabi can prop her hands on the edge of the bed, tiptoe, lift her leg high, do the splits, if Sakura suddenly wants to peek under Hanabi’s dress, or touch a bit," she paused, smiled, and gently stroked his abs through his shirt, "you are more than welcome."

While cycling, Uesugi Sakura couldn’t help swallowing, bad Hanabi really understood him, just a few words could whet his appetite.

If bad Hanabi understood him so well, didn’t that mean little Hanabi understood too, just never expressed it?

"Hanabi-chan, can I tell you something?"

"Hmm? What does Sakura want to say?"

"Well... could you be a bit nicer to everyone at the coffee shop?"

"Why does it feel like Sakura has a new love?" Hanamaru Hanabi smiled at him from behind.

"No, I’m serious, don’t bind people up like before, okay? It’s quite dangerous."
