Maid Part-Time Job (3)
Yejin, straddling my lap, held the panties in her hand, dangling them back and forth over my face as if she were using them as bait to catch a fish. “Ah, ahh… ugh… *slurp*… ha…” I stared up at the fabric, which was brushing against the tip of my nose, my eyes wide with shock. ‘W-what on earth is this situation… Yejin is putting the panties she was wearing on my face…’ By now, I had begun to seriously doubt the legitimacy of the “wholesome cafe” the owner had described earlier, but there was no turning back. What bothered me even more was the color of the panties Yejin had been wearing. They were red, lace-trimmed thongs adorned with a flashy butterfly pattern. It was my first time seeing something like that in person. It looked like something straight out of a Western adult film. I swallowed hard and thought, ‘…Wearing panties like this to work… there’s no way these are the kind of things she wears on a daily basis… D-don’t tell me Yejin has been making money by doing lewd things with customers all this time…? Ugh… my head is starting to hurt…’
While I was grimacing in agony, Yejin, oblivious to my inner turmoil, laughed innocently and continued to play with the panties. “Come on, try to catch it using only your mouth, Master~ *Bloop bloop*~ Just like a fish~ Hehehe! You can stick your tongue out, too, you know?”
“W-wait… I have something to s—” But every time I tried to speak, the panties blocked my mouth, making it impossible to get a word out. Just as I was squirming in distress, I felt a presence nearby. I turned my head and saw that the other maids, who had backed off earlier, were surrounding me once again. Yejin noticed them a beat too late and jumped in surprise, shouting at the other part-timers. “Wh-what? Why are you all coming over here? You aren’t even his assigned maids…”
One of the girls, her hair styled in crimped braids, ignored Yejin, clapped her hands together with a bright smile, and spoke to me. “Master, are you satisfied with the service you’re receiving right now?”
“Y-yes… I suppose…” I replied awkwardly, glancing at Yejin. The braided maid’s eyes widened, and she beamed at me. “Really? That’s a relief~ Actually, we’ve never had a case where only one maid handled the full-course service at our cafe before~ I just wanted to ask if there was anything you felt was missing~”
Hearing that, it made sense. Hardly anyone would pass up the chance to receive a harem-style service after paying 250,000 won. As I hesitated, not knowing how to answer, Yejin quickly wrapped her arms around my head and shouted, “W-wait! He’s perfectly satisfied right now, so why are you asking such things and making him uncomfortable? Right, Master?”
“Mmph, mph…! Mmph…” My face was completely buried in Yejin’s chest, so I couldn’t say a word and just flailed my arms. The maids surrounding me watched the scene with narrowed eyes until, suddenly, a cold-looking woman with long, straight hair spoke to Yejin. “…You know this guy, don’t you?”
“Ugh…!” Yejin looked at the woman, her face turning pale as if she’d been caught. The woman sighed, crossed her arms, and looked at her as if that had been answer enough. “…Maids must never develop personal feelings for a Master. That’s the first rule, isn’t it? Did you forget?”
“No wonder you were acting so cocky for a rookie who hasn’t even properly served a customer yet… so that was the reason.”
“You don’t even have the guts to handle a man, yet you’re acting all high and mighty… Besides, those panties are just worn over your inner shorts, right? Am I wrong?” One of the women suddenly reached out and flipped up Yejin’s maid skirt. Yejin shrieked, her face flushing bright red as she quickly pulled it back down. “Eek! Wh-what are you doing!”
But in that brief moment, I had seen it clearly. Beneath the skirt, where Yejin had just taken off her panties, she was wearing black dolphin shorts. I felt a strange sense of relief at that sight. Judging by what the other maids were saying, it seemed Yejin hadn’t serviced any other men besides me, and the lewd panties were just a prop. In short, even though Yejin was working at such a shady place, she hadn’t fallen as far as I’d feared. On the other hand, the other maids surrounding me smelled like true professionals. I wouldn’t be surprised if they could write a thesis on how to seduce men and swindle them out of their money. ‘Th-this isn’t a maid cafe, it’s basically a brothel…! What kind of place is this…!’
“Move aside, go back out and solicit more customers. Don’t try to snatch a service when you don’t even have the seniority…” Yejin, left speechless, slumped her shoulders and was dragged away by the other part-timer with a shadowed expression. “Wait… no, hey…” I reached out toward Yejin as she was being hauled away, but the women immediately surrounded me again with lewd smiles. “…We apologize for the inconvenience, Master. We don’t allow our maids to harbor personal feelings for our Masters… Don’t worry, we’ll start the service over from the beginning for you.”
As they rested their arms on my shoulders and leaned in, looking down at me with lascivious expressions, I broke into a cold sweat and stammered, “Ah, wait… I mean…” While I was stuttering, the long-haired woman who had been cold earlier suddenly straddled my knees, spreading her legs wide in an M-shape to show off everything beneath her skirt. As I trembled, face burning with embarrassment, the other maids pressed their cleavage against my head and whispered, “…We stopped right before the tea, didn’t we, Master? Come on, open up. Ah~”
As she approached slowly, holding a mouthful of tea just like Yejin had done earlier, I waved my hands frantically and shouted, “No, wait a minute…! I-I’m not mentally prepared… doing something like this with a total stranger… no matter what, that’s a bit…”
“Hm? Why, Master? Isn’t it better that we’re strangers? If we knew each other, it would only lead to annoying complications. Why don’t we just enjoy this cleanly and go back to being strangers? If you pay more, I’ll even give you a handjob…” As one of the maids rested her chest on my head and mocked me with a delinquent’s tone, I thought, sweat pouring down my back, ‘…Th-they aren’t even hiding it anymore… What kind of insane place are you working at, Han Yejin…! Just how desperate for money were you…!’
As I flinched and tried to stand up, the five women pinned my arms and legs with unimaginable strength, preventing me from moving. “Where do you think you’re going? We can make you feel good in no time… Come on, don’t resist, ah~”
“Ugh, eww… no, wait…” By now, I was terrified and struggling to resist, but it was useless. It was clear that if things continued this way, I would be violated without any way to stop it. At that very moment, the door behind me burst open with a loud *bang*, and Yejin appeared, lugging a life-sized cardboard standee that was as big as she was.
“…Eh?” As everyone in the shop stopped what they were doing and stared blankly at the scene, Yejin lifted the standee with all her might and hurled it toward us. “Hyaaaah!”
“Ugh, argh! What the!”
“Eek!” The maids who had been pinning my limbs scattered in a panic, and I barely managed to dodge the flying standee just before it hit me. Yejin quickly ran over, grabbed my hand, pulled me up, and shouted, “Get up, hurry!”
As soon as I grabbed her hand and jumped to my feet, Yejin bolted out of the shop. “Hey…! Where are you going!” Even the owner behind the counter ran out, shouting with a pale face, but Yejin ignored him and sprinted into the alleyway. We ran for a long time until we reached a plaza in the middle of the bustling district, where we finally stopped to catch our breath.
“*Huff, huff, huff*… ugh…” Yejin crouched down, clutching her chest and gasping as if she were about to pass out. I patted her back until she calmed down. However, as more and more people began to glance at Yejin’s maid outfit with curiosity, I felt embarrassed and whispered to her, “S-shall we go home for now? We can’t stay here forever…” But when I looked down at her face, to my surprise, Yejin was sobbing.
“…*Sniffle, sniffle*…” She grabbed the hem of my shirt and buried her face in it, weeping uncontrollably. “Waaaaah! *Sniffle, sniffle*, waaaaah…”
“O-oh… no, Yejin… wait… if you cry here…” Since a girl in a maid outfit was standing in the middle of a crowded district, clutching a man’s shirt and crying her heart out, it was inevitable that she would attract attention. Flushed bright red and frantic, I quickly hoisted Yejin onto my back and ran home before someone could take a picture and turn us into an internet meme. Once I finally reached home, I set Yejin down on the floor and panted like a dog. “*Huff, huff, huff*… it’s, it’s boiling hot…”
“…*Sniffle*… *hic*… *sniffle*…” Yejin seemed to have calmed down a bit on the way home; she wiped her tears and stared at me blankly. Then, she asked quietly in a low, muffled voice, “…Do you… hate me now…?”
“Huh…? No? Why are you asking that all of a sudden?” When I looked at her with wide eyes, Yejin stared at me intently for a moment before shaking her head. “…No, never mind…”
I watched her for a moment, then sat down in front of her and stroked her hair. “…Quit that part-time job. You did that kind of thing anyway, so even if you wanted to keep going, you probably couldn’t…” As I spoke, Yejin looked up at me, sniffling, and muttered softly, “…What am I supposed to do then? I don’t even have the rent for this month.”
“We can just make videos and earn money! I’ll work twice as hard. Let’s earn enough so you don’t have to do part-time jobs in places like that. How about it? That’s fine, right?” I smiled and tapped my chest as if to tell her she could trust me. Yejin stared at me for a long time, then lowered her head without a word. “…Y-Yejin…?”
I leaned in with a worried expression to check her face. Suddenly, Yejin snapped her head up, and I jumped back in surprise. “Whoa, you scared me…! Wh-what is it?”
“…Okay, let’s do it. Let’s do it…” Yejin muttered to herself, then rolled her eyes down to look at the maid outfit she was wearing. She turned her gaze back to me and said, “…Let’s film one right now. While I’m wearing this. You can do it, right?”
