She'd done this before.
In fact, it was clear she'd done this countless times.
She continued to check her surroundings as she purchased a crepe from a food stall. As the daughter of the famous François family, she probably never got to snack between meals.
Just as she was about to sink her teeth into this sweet treat, I made my move.
"That sure looks delicious, Miss Claire."
"Mnglth?! C-commoner...?! What are you doing here?"
"Huh? You want me to have a bite, too? Aww, thank you! Ahhh!"
"I said nothing of the sort!"
I thought this might finally be the moment where I received an indirect kiss from Miss Claire, but alas, she rejected me with all of her might.
"Where are you headed after this, Miss Claire?"
"That has nothing to do with you."
"Oh, but it does! I'm a captive of your love, Miss Claire."
"You're my maid! Do you hear me?! You're nothing more than a maid!!" Miss Claire was lightning-quick to correct me, while also checking to make sure those around us didn't misunderstand anything.
"Well, in that case, please take me with you! Surely it must be inconvenient to do everything all by yourself?"
"What is that supposed to mean...? Hmph! Do as you"
