「Maa, that’s a weird clock.」
「Did Sawadi-shi thought about this too? It looks so practical and a soldier would love to be able to look at the time without taking his watch out of his pocket every time.」
「It says “Wristwatch by watchmaker Cassiopeia”. Is it called a wristwatch because you put it on your wrist? How can they sell something so ugly?」
「Is that what you think? I’d be willing to buy one myself……」
「Don’t. I’ve never heard of this Cassiopeia. Whoever it is, he’ll probably go bankrupt soon.」
「Is that so……」
My husband scratched his head as if he couldn’t give it up. However, even though it was a strange watch made by an unknown craftsman, it is something expensive. As the person in charge of our family’s finances, I couldn’t just shrug my shoulders at this expense.
Even my money-wasting father wouldn’t look at it twice……
「you, give me one of this.」
「Ah, father in law」
「Ara」
But before I knew it, father was already standing next to us with a big smile on his face, pointing at the weird watch.
The employee, who was following him, is already carrying bright red clothes embroidered with scorpions, wooden sticks and leather gloves that I don’t even know what they are used for, on both hands.
Ah, I feel as if I now understand mother’s years of hard work……
「You guys, this watch not only has an innovative design but also has an scorpion and the inauguration of the Noble League engraved on the dial……」
I ignored father’s happy commentary and pulled my husband’s hand and headed to our seats.
Father is a wonderful person but there are some things about him I don’t want my husband to imitate.
Just like this case, I must properly pull him away before he gets infected.

「Well, it’s a nice seat.」
「True」
We had special seats, almost directly in front of the stage.
From our private seats on the 4th floor, which were built as a mezzanine above the regular seats, we could only see the tops of the heads of the audience.
The chairs are comfortable sofas and there is a table in the middle with the coffee shop items we had ordered earlier.
「Ah, could you order tea and coffee from here? It says here to press this bump when you need something or want to order something.」
「That’s convenient」
I sipped a cup of astrobucks’ white fluffy coffee, which had been on my mind for a long time, as I watched my husband happily reading the explanation on the seats.
It’s a warm coffee with lots of white, fluffy things, like snow, on it.
When I put my mouth on the white fluffy stuff that was starting to melt a little, it tasted slightly sweet and mild.
「This coffee tastes surprisingly decent. I no longer despise you, Schenker.」
「Fufufu……you have a white mustache.」
When he said so, I huffed and put my hand over my mouth. Then, my smiling husband wiped my mouth with a handkerchief.
It looks cute but you have to be careful when drinking it.
「Ara, what’s wrong?」
I was about to drink my coffee again when I noticed my husband staring at me with mischievous eyes while holding the handkerchief in his hand.
「No no, there’s still some on your lips.」
He put his hand on my chin and slowly moved his face closer to mine.
「Stop, everyone will see us.」
「They can’t since we are in a special seat.」
Ah, right.
There is a wall between us and the special seats next to us and the regular seats below us can’t see us and above us is…..ara!?
It seems like a woman with bright red hair in the painting on the third floor we saw……or am I mistaken.
「Cutie Elfa, my very own princess.」
I must have been mistaken because the fourth floor is the top floor.
I put my hand around my husband’s neck and pulled him close.
It’s only a few minutes before the show starts but it’s the first time we’ve been alone as a couple since we came here.
Father is……a little preoccupied with baseball right now.
We enjoyed a brief flirtation until the performance bell rang and father rushed into the room.
