Chapter 1050 Welcome To Cafe Yandere
Chapter 1050 Welcome To Cafe Yandere
(Kiyomi POV)
I blinked a few times before looking down at myself to confirm what I was seeing in the mirror.
The frills and the apron greeted me in my reflection to confirm that I was, indeed, wearing what appears to be a maid outfit.
There were a lot of frills everywhere including on my head dress and I was even wearing a pair of stockings and heels.
All this means that this is by no means a ‘practical’ maid uniform but one that was made for show, something I was quite familiar with during my time in the theatre.
Looking around the place, I found myself in a changing room of sorts with no one else in it besides me.
This was the situation I found myself in when I did my jump.
Why am I here? And why am I wearing this?
I have to say though, the design of the outfit is quite good. Though it is focused on its showiness, it still retains some practicality as it’s also easy to move around in.

I quickly realised that this was deliberate as it does show off some skin when moving around, though still remaining decent enough to not look scandalous.
It’s like the person who designed this knows exactly how the human mind works.
The door to the room suddenly opened and I turned to see Elaria there. Or rather, this Universe’s version of Elaria.
“Helloooo~ Are you done changing yet, Kiyomi? Oh? Ehehehe~ Are you perhaps admiring the uniforms I designed? Don’t worry! I made multiple of them so feel free to take one home and have fun with Onii-sama in them!”
Ah… I suppose it makes sense that Elaria is the one who made them… Although that doesn’t exactly answer the question of why I’m wearing it now.
In fact, Elaria was also wearing one too…
While mine had an icy blue colour as its theme, Elaria’s one was a dark purple bordering on black.
Deciding to put all that aside for now, I asked her the main question, “Where is Master?”
“Eh? Onii-sama? He only comes in for the late afternoon shift when our cafe switches to a bar, did you forget?”
Cafe? Bar?
Ah… I see… It’s that kind of Universe…
I’m guessing it’s one where Master opened a cafe of some sort and we’re all working as servers in said cafe.
Hmm… I could always just go directly to Master right now and skip all this work, but I would be lying if I said I wasn’t curious about how the me of this Universe got through her daily life. I suppose I could just indulge a little here while waiting for Master.
I cleared my throat, “Ah, my apologies, I thought I overheard Master might be coming in early today. It must have been a mistake.”
“Oh? How rare! Anyway, the morning crowd is coming soon so let’s go prepare! I’m sure they want to get abused by their favourite icy maid again!”
Abused? Icy maid? What is she even talking about?
Unfortunately, those weren’t questions I could ask so I followed her out of the changing room and into the cafe section of the shop.
There was what looked like a bar counter that occupied one side of the wall with the seating area directly in front of it. The windows were floor-length with thick curtains rolled up beside them and showed a clear view of the streets outside.
I noticed there was also a small stage to the left and elder sister was already seated there with various instruments spread out around her. She was also dressed in a maid uniform with hers being dark red in colour which definitely suited her perfectly.
Elder sister must be providing live music as entertainment for the patrons, as expected of Master.
I spotted Brendan working behind the bar counter and Eris was moving towards the door and flipping the ‘closed’ sign to ‘open’.
Almost immediately, a flood of people came in through the door. What was most surprising was that it wasn’t all males like I had expected but a mix of both young ladies and young men.
“Ahhhh!! It’s paradise!”
“We’re back in paradise again!”
“It’s Eris-sama!”
“Ahhhh! Manami-sama is already on stage!”
“Kiyomi-sama!! Look at us with your cold gaze again!!”
Just hearing their voices was already enough to make me feel disgust towards them and my face inevitably scrunched up to show my distaste.
At that instant, a group of young ladies and men started screaming, “Ahhhhh!! There it is! Kiyomi-sama’s cold and judgemental gaze!!”
Are these people all alright in the head?
Hmm… Then again, we do have some followers who are also on this level of devotion back in my Universe too.
While I was thinking about that however, the bell at the bar chimed and I turned to see cups of tea and coffee already placed on the counter. There were also little pictures of us above the orders and several of the cups were placed under my picture.
I already guessed that there’s a system in place where the customers can request someone specific to serve their order and those orders were mine to fulfil.
It irks me a little that I was serving someone other than Master but I suppose it can’t be helped since this is another Universe.
Not wanting to look out of place, I went to pick up those cups and got my directions to who ordered them, which just so happened to be a pair of young men who were staring at me expectantly.
I gave them a look of disgust before placing their orders on the table roughly.
“A Caffè Macchiato and a Mocha Frappuccino,” I said curtly.
“Ahhhhh~ Thank you Kiyomi-sama!! Your cold gaze is perfect as always!!” The two men squealed girlishly.
Ugh… Does this Universe’s version of me really deal with this on a daily basis? How can she take something like this?
If it was me I would just… Ah, I know now. I had probably seen this as a big stage for me to put on my own act. I understand. Allow me to show you just how great I am on a stage~
I managed to settle myself in after a while, which was surprising considering that I was doing this for the first time here. It seemed like as long as I just acted like myself, then it was fine.
I even managed to start to enjoy myself in the busy but calming environment of the cafe itself, which I suppose elder sister’s performance also helped.
Right as I thought of that, the door to our shop was shoved open and a bunch of well dressed men came in.
“Good day people, I am an official from the government and we suspect this place to be engaged in illegal activities! I’m afraid I’m going to have to shut this place down. Everyone else, please leave the premises immediately!”
“Oh no… Onii-sama is not going to like this…” Elaria sighed, as though this was something that had happened before.
I’m already not liking this one bit though… But I don’t see what the problem is? Master isn’t here, so we can just get rid of him ourselves, right?
Right?
