Karin look in the room as Mafuyu opens widely. She then realized she was holding onto Akizuki's jacket and immediately let go.

Maika gasped when she heard the others are here. "Sorry! I was practising my sadism."

Karin and Akizuki went in and stood beside each other. Karin saw something below where Maika sat and asked. "Is that a part of your practice too, Maika?"

Maika was confused at first but when she look down, she gasped and quickly stood up. "M-manager!"

"I had the sweetest dream." The said manager murmured as he suddenly woke up from his slumber on the chair.

"You were sleeping?!"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I was so focused to being sadistic!" The young girl exclaimed as she continued to apologies as Dino let out a question mark.

"Do you know what he was up too?"

"Anime?"

"Definitely watching anime late at night again!"

Maika turned around from him, her face was red as a tomato. 'Being lost in thoughts is no excuse! What I did was rude and embarrassing!'

"Get up already!" Mafuyu said as she pinch Dino's cheek as he apologies.

'I wish... I wish the manager...' Maika begin to thought when she was backing up from the scene and unconsciously let out her sadism.

"I wish the manager would never wake up."

Dino spit on blood as Karin and the others 'wow'ed her, a bit impress she has her ways of being sadism.

'W-why am I like this?' Maika thought as her body shake. It didn't last long as she put on a determination face while looking up at the ceiling. 'I have to interact with the customers today, but this won't cut it! I have to be more dignified and smile!'

Dino staggers a bit before saying. "M-Maika..."

Maika, with a happy tone and a sweet smile, turn around to face Dino. "I will be doing my very best, too!"

Dino gripped his clothed chest as a heart pops out of his mouth. He snap out of it and said. "Candy and a whip! Is this a new kind of play?"

"Should we prepare for a bit before we change?"

"Yeah, I'll help you with the kitchen."

"Good idea."

The other staff left the two as they went to the main area to clean up.

======

The door of Stile opens as another pair of customers came in. Maika notice them and went to serve them with an expression.

'Smile.'

"Whoa--" a customer stumbled at the entrance as they were about to enter.

"What are you doing?"

"I just stumbled."

The customer replied with a chuckle and saw Maika in front of them, serving. "Oh, table for two--"

"Are you alright?" Maika asked, slightly in a sadism type with a smile.

Both of the customers huffed and blushed. "Y-yes!"

"I-I'm alright!"

the café was suddenly filled with customers. Mostly saw the scene of Maika serving the two customer. The girl was about to serve the new customers and murmured to herself to smile as she walk.

"Excuse me, could you repeat your order once more?"

"Oh, hold the pickles?"

"You were here yesterday, too, weren't you?"

The way Maika said to the customer seem right to her, but for the customers they see a sadistic girl serving them which made them all blush. As Maika walk through the café, the customers' eyes followed here and murmured together. "Today's expression is better than ever!"

Smile!

======

Karin walked to the main area from her bathroom break. She saw Akizuki peeking by the wall. "Akizuki, is everything alright?"

Akizuki look at her then pointed to where Dino and another blonde hair guy talking to each other.

All the girl heard was foreign languages to her. "Woah, their talking in English."

"Ooh, what's happening?" Kaho asked as she and Mafuyu found them peeking together.

Karin simply pointed to where Dino is as they all watch them. Soon after, Maika exited from the break room and also found them peeking out.

"I'm very much interested in japanese culture." She heard a familiar language.

"Um, what's going on?"

"Maika! Come here." Kaho invited her and step aside to let her see. "Look, a foreign customer!"

Dino and the blonde hair man continue to talk as the others observe them.

"I wonder what's up."

"When the manager speaks in English, he seems to be a respectable person."

"Can't argue with that."

"Yeah."

The brunette saw Maika got hype up as she decided to walked closer to hear their conversation. Karin giggled. "Maika seems to be loving it since she loves other countries."

Akizuki couldn't help but seeing her giggled felt like he is hearing his favorite music. He had the same thought for the pass days when she started to work here.

He can't seem to stop himself.

======

As the staff services wash up the café and the kitchen, the girls are in the break room, changing to their normal clothing.

"Maika..." Kaho started as Maika was about to pull out her sock. "...looks like you're getting use to the job, huh?"

"Yes!" Maika replied with a bright smile. "I've been smiling to the customers all day. Which seems to please them!" Instead of a bright smile, I meant her sadistic smile.

"So that's her smile."
