Chapter 10

'Will this work?' Michael thought nervously as he made his way to the meeting place.

'Don't worry, Michael-sensei, the plan I designed is good and you've also Glow-up sensei.'William said yesterday.

Michael kept walking then saw Eveline who had arrived first standing waiting.

Eveline wears a simple white dress with a ribbon on the back that matches her black hair and fair skin. She also wears a crescent moon pattern hair clip with a crescent moon pattern earring with a drop of blood in the middle which is handmade by Michael.

'So beautiful....and she wears earrings and a hair clip I made' Michael thought blushing and was mesmerized by Eveline.

"Sorry did you wait long?"

(A/N: This is Michael Glow-up Version)

"Ah, it's okay I just came too early...." Eveline replied then fell silent watching Michael's appearance.

"You... Michael?" asked Eveline making sure the person in front of her was Michael.

"That's right, I'm Michael.... Do I look weird?" Michael asked nervously.

Michael had shaved his beard and straightened his hair at William's suggestion and was also wearing neat clothes.

"No!, you're not weird" Eveline quickly denied.

"You're handsome...." Eveline mumbled her face reddened in a small voice and it was still heard by Michael.

"Thank you.... you're beautiful too..." Michael replied with a red face.

"...."

"...."

They were both silent awkwardly with red faces.

"E-uhm let's go."

"Y-yes"

Then the two of them walked towards the restaurant in the village.

'Remember sensei, the first thing to do is to compliment the girl's appearance' Michael thought remembering William's words yesterday.

"Y-you're wearing those earrings and hairpins." Michael said starting the conversation.

"Ah yes, doesn't it look weird?" Eveline asked, showing her earrings.

"No, it suits you." Michael said with a smile.

"Thanks ...., But you shaved your beard and straightened your hair, it looks good." Eveline replied

"Haha Thank you ..., ah we've arrived." Michael said then entered the restaurant.

The restaurant wasn't too far from the meeting place so it didn't take too long to walk.

"Good afternoon, welcome to Aby's Restaurant. Can I help you?" said the waiter.

"I'd like to have lunch, can I reserve a table for two?"

"Yes sir, please come this way." The waiter said leading Michael and Eveline to an empty table.

"Please have a seat. Here's the menu. I'll be back in a minute to take your order," said the waiter and handed him the menu and left.

"Wechsler-san what would you like to order?" Michael asked while looking at the restaurant menu.

"Just call Eveline it's okay," said Eveline.

"Fine, you can also just call me Michael it's fine."

"Yeah, by the way Michael-san there is something that makes me curious, Michael-san how old are you actually?" asked Eveline curiously.

"Eh?, my age?" Michael was confused because he was suddenly asked about his age.

"Ah, sorry it's rude to ask that, but your appearance yesterday and now looks very different so..." Eveline said apologetically.

"Haha It's okay, I'm only 23 years old Eveline-san." Michael said casually.

"What?!, You're one year younger than me..." Eveline was surprised.

"Was that something surprising?" Michael asked.

"Yeah... because yesterday you had a long beard and looked like you were very old so I was surprised to see that you were still young." Eveline said remembering Michael's appearance yesterday and the waiter came to take the order.

"Are you ready to determine the order?" asked the waiter who came.

"I ordered menu A and for drinks I just ordered orange juice," said Michael.

"I ordered menu B and for drinks I ordered Wine," said Eveline.

"Okay, please wait a moment."

"Eveline-san do you like drinking wine?" Michael asked.

"Yes I like to drink it, how about you?"

"Ah, I don't really like alcohol," said Michael.

(A/N:Stay Halal Brother👍🏻)

"Oh I see, by the way Michael-san do you usually make crafts and sell them like yesterday?" asked Eveline.

"Yeah I used to make it when I wasn't teaching."

"Teaching?, you're actually Michael-san's teacher." A little surprised.

"Yes, I teach painting and crafts to children in the Greyrat family."

"Wow, it turns out you can also paint." said Eveline

"Haha if you Eveline-san, what do you usually do." Michael asked curiously about Eveline's activities.

"I helped my father who is a merchant, my father happened to have a business here so I stayed here temporarily." said Eveline explaining her reason for coming to this village.

"Oh..... that means you won't be here long." Michael said in a slightly gloomy tone.

Then the food ordered has arrived, the two of them finished the meal quietly without anyone talking at all.

"Let me pay for it." Eveline said trying to pay the food bill.

"Ah, let me do it." Michael said with a little objection.

"It's okay, just take it as a thank you for giving the hairpin." Eveline said with a smile and immediately paid the bill for the meal.

After paying them both left the restaurant.

"So where are you going after this?" Eveline asked Michael, who had been silent for a long time.

"Eh?"

"No way, we just eat together." Eveline said with a smile.

Michael who heard that immediately smiled happily because he thought that he would only eat together.

"Oh yeah, how about you try to paint me Michael-san? I want to see your Painting." Eveline asked with sparkling eyes.

"O-okay I'll get the equipment first."

Michael and Eveline then head to Greyrat's house because most of Michael's equipment is left at Greyrat's house.

(MC POV)

"Aww"

I'm in my room and sewing to make gloves and always stuck with needles because I'm not focused and being curious about Michael-sensei's first date.

'Ahhh! I Really curious.' I shouted in my mind and then looked from the window Michael who brought painting equipment assisted by a beautiful black-haired woman.

'Ohh it's Michael-sensei!, that means that woman Eveline-san huh? Hehe let's take a peek.' I thought smirking then following them quietly and then they stopped under a tree where there were two chairs where I used to paint and they were seen chatting for a while then Eveline sat on the chair and Michael started painting Eveline who was sitting.

'I can't hear it from here, but if you get closer you'll find out.... Oh, maybe I should try to strengthen my hearing by pouring pure mana into my ears.'

I then poured pure mana into my ears and finally I could clearly hear Michael and Eveline's conversation.

"That was your student's house?" asked Eveline who was sitting down.

"Yeah, usually I just stay at the inn and it's a bit insecure to leave things at the inn so I leave it at my student's house." Michael explained while painting Eveline who was sitting under a tree.

"I see...."

They then fell silent again and Michael slightly nervously asked.

"Eveline-san can stay in this village for how long?"

"Maybe just a month." Eveline said tossing her hair and looking up at the clear sky.

"I see..."

I saw the atmosphere was quiet again and was surprised that Eveline-san wouldn't be in this village for long.

'Michael-sensei is bad at this, we need a more aggressive approach to succeed sensei.' I thought looking at the two of them who were still silent without anyone speaking a word.

They were like that for 1 hour finally the painting was finished.

"It's finished." Michael said handing the painting to Eveline.

"Where?, I'm very curious." said Eveline with curious eyes to see the painting.

In the painting, you can see the woman with black hair and black eyes wearing a simple white dress and wearing a crescent moon patterned hair clip and earrings smiling under a tree that blocks the sun, making her look like a beautiful vampire who is hiding from the sun by taking shelter in the sun. under the tree.

"Wow....so beautiful..." said Eveline, mesmerized by Michael's painting.

"Is it me?" Eveline asked in a bit of disbelief because the woman in the painting was so beautiful.

"Yes, it's you." Michael

Eveline explained who was still admiring the painting, suddenly Michael called his name.

"Eveline-san...." Michael said looking Eveline in the eyes seriously and a little nervous.

Eveline then turned her attention to Michael and saw Michael looking into his eyes seriously and a little nervous.

"Eveline-san...., I liked you the first time I saw you."

"Eh?"

"Eh?"

'NANI?! Michael-sensei since when are you this brave?!' I thought, surprised to hear Michael's sudden declaration of love to Eveline.

"This is the first time I've felt this kind of feeling, when I heard Eveline-san was leaving I was sad and I wanted to be with you Eveline-san." Michael said with a slightly red face from embarrassment.

"I-I like you Eveline-san, can I be next to you." Michael said seriously and his face was red.

Eveline who heard all that also her face was very red.

"I-I like you too Michael-san." He muttered lowering his head with a very red face.

'WOAH!!, MichaelxEveline's ship sailed~, Congratulations Michael-sensei!!." I thought holding back my screams and was moved to see the two of them.

Michael who heard that immediately smiled broadly and hugged Eveline happily.

Then after a while they finally realized that they were hugging. quite a while ago they let go of the hug with red faces.

'Ahh Romance is the best genre~, but seeing the two of them makes me jealous.....,Ahh Nadia where are you now?...'I thought lonely seeing Michael and Eveline still shy.
