Chapter 10: Letter from White-haired-san

Ginjiro escaped from the tea party and is taking a break in another room.

Correctly, he wants the ladies to have some time for a little talk alone, so he is waiting in the other room until the end of the party.

While he was having coffee with Sebastian, the butler, Stuart-san, Iris-sama’s butler, who was crying earlier, approached him.

“This is the first time I have ever been to such a wonderful tea party. I am deeply moved by it. If there is anything I can do, please let me know.”

The white-haired old man asked for a handshake, and Ginjiro shook his hand again.

“I’ll give you this.”

Ginjiro hands over the photo of Iris-sama he just took.

The white-haired butler, Stuart-san, stiffened up, after saying “This is …….”

He’s so happy, he’s shedding tears again.

“I have been to several such celebrations, but this one was the best. Making people happy is such a moving experience.”

As he was talking with Stuart-san, remembering what happened earlier, an idea suddenly flashed into Ginjiro’s mind.

“May I ask for your cooperation?”

They had already shaken hands many times, but this was the first time Ginjiro asked for a handshake.

“Chirin♪”

After a while, Amelie, the maid, told me that the ladies were done talking and that she wanted me to make a new pot of tea.

She also asked me to prepare the birthday present.

Ginjiro washed his hands and checked his appearance before entering the room.

After placing the birthday gifts out of sight of Iris-sama, I brewed a fresh pot of tea.

The plates that had been placed in front of each of the three of them are replaced with slightly larger plates.

“I have a present for Iris for her birthday and for Laina as a token of my appreciation.”

Ginjiro immediately gave Sophia a gift.

Actually, since he did not know how to use the cosmetics set, he decided to give them only the basic cosmetics set.

“What a beautiful glass. It’s so clear, I can see what’s inside.”

Laina-sama is looking at the cosmetics.

Somehow, Laina-sama looks like the actress who was passionate about penicillin in the drama in which a doctor travels back in time to the Edo period.

Thinking about such an unimportant thing, I looked at her…

“This is something that will change a woman’s life. Cohen will tell you all about it.”

Cohen-san takes over the baton from a smug-looking Sophia.

She explained how to use basic cosmetics while doing so.

Her explanation, which was based on her own experience and knowledge from Ginjiro, seemed to resonate with both of them.

Cohen-san says something like this cosmetics are a revolution.

The conversation has gone off in some strange direction, so Ginjiro releases a trick to end the tea party nicely.

He casually lowers the plate of today’s star, Iris-sama, and a letter appears from where the plate used to be.

Ginjiro says nothing, bows and steps back.

This is a surprise that neither Sophia nor Sebastian knows about.

“This… Should I read it? Um…”

Iris-sama begins to read the letter.

Actually, I had asked the white-haired butler, Stuart, to write a letter for her earlier.

It was completely Ginjiro’s idea, but it seems to have worked.

Tears flowed down Iris-sama’s cheeks again. 　

When I looked at him next to me, the white-haired butler, Stuart-san, cried again.

Thinking that this man cries easily, a familiar hand appeared, and Ginjiro held out his hand in the same manner.
