Even so, the handshake event might be something that can’t be underestimated.
You can get close enough to see the actress’ face, you can chat with her for a few words, and since the purpose of this event is a handshake with that actress, the time per person is short.
As one would expect from Schenker, there is no one better than him when it comes to monetizing things.
Now, let’s get in line for the swordsman Reid.
「Reid-sama, isn’t he a very decisive man?」
「I personally prefer Lenitz-sama……」
「They are both too young」
It would have been nice to talk with someone like that. Next time, I’ll definitely bring a friend.
While I was listening to the other’s conversation, the line moved quickly and it was my turn to shake hands with her.
「Ano, you were very dignified and lovely」
「Hearing you say that makes me feel embarrassed. Thanks.」
When I saw Reid-san up close, she was much calmer than I had seen her from afar. Her makeup seemed to have made her face look younger in contrast to Piron-san.
As expected, stage makeup is amazing.
It’s a kind of makeup that transforms a person into someone else.
Perhaps because I was able to calm down because I met Piron-san first, I also noticed the exquisiteness of the costumes.
They were sewn in such a way that they seemed to fit snugly to the body and there were countless small embroideries on each part of the garment, making it look like a work of art.
It was completely different from the clothes we usually were.
While I was thinking about such a thing, I stood up at the last line, Lenitz-san’s. There, I couldn’t help but overhear the conversations of the young ladies before me.
「Rumors about this play will spread significantly and inevitably. Perhaps we’ll have to worry about buying tickets next time.」
「I agree desu wa. I’d like to watch it in a better place next.」
「Even if I can’t get a special seat, I wouldn’t like to sit at the end of the hall desu wa.」
I guess they are right.
I was able to watch the play in a special seat this time but I was only able to do so because father invited me.
It’s not always possible to get tickets for sure next time…..
Ah, right.
I can just directly ask Schenker.
I was originally going to send him a letter and if I add a note to it, he might accommodate me a little.
「Our family has some contacts with the Schenkers, should we ask once?」
「Most of the merchants in the city have contacts with the Schenkers you know.」
「This theater belongs to the third son of the Schenker family, Sawadi-sama, doesn’t it? Sawadi-sama can only be contacted through Chicken-san of the Magical Schenker Group……」
「The number of houses that have connection with Chicken-san is limited……」
Ara, is that so?
Would it be impolite if I don’t go through that person?
However, we’ve been friends since the academy…..
No, but if he thinks that I’m a woman who uses friendship for a hobby, it will bring shame to father’s face……
Ah, this is annoying desu wa…..
「Can I help you, my lady?」
「Ara, no, I was just thinking……」
I was thinking so much that I found myself standing in front of Lenitz-san before I knew it.
I feel somewhat dizzy when she stares at me with her long doll-like eyelashes as if she is peeping at me.
「Ano, I’m rooting for you……」
「Thank you. And I sincerely wish that your worries will be resolved.」
「Ara, thank you very much.」
I left the line feeling flustered……unable to say “you’re the source of my worry”.
Staring at my right hand, which I shook with Lenitz-san, I slowly made my way to my husband.
Ah, how many more times can I come here while my husband is here on vacation?
I left the women only theater which is painted in pure white. I look back at it again and again with worries I had not anticipated when I came here.
