Chapter 3
Yuri in a Whole Different Way
For three days, Kaori has stayed at Enka's apartment. She did apply for some online classes, which Enka paid for with her own money since Kaori spent all of her allowance on the long trip. Another thing is that the little step-sister hasn't seen Enka in so long she wants to know a few more things about her that she hasn't. Right now, Enka was going to her job at the All-Girl's Maid Cafe, Yuri Wonderland Maids. For Kaori, she hasn't been to one, nor heard the fact that there is actually an all-girl's maid cafe. Was this the first? She decided to investigate after taking her online classes and homework.
**Yuri Wonderland Maids**
"And that is how yuri is~!" Yukiha says after kissing Koharu on the lips for a brief, but passionate moment. "It's a policy from Honoka-sama and Kotori-sama. The service must always come with a yuri kiss demonstration."
"How wonderful!" two girls applaud for their performance. "We'll give you some extra tips after we eat!"
"Would you like me to decorate your omelet a bit?" Koharu offers as she holds out some ketchup.
Enka is done with servicing her customers when she hears the ringing from the front door. Another set of customers. She walks toward a trio of girls and bows.
"Welcome back, Mistresses~" she greets. "Let me lead you to your table."
The maid cafe, Yuri Wonderland Maids is a new maid cafe that opened recently, the very first Females Only maid cafe. The co-owners that founded this are school idols that were married to each other and encouraged yuri to everyone. Yukiha discovered this by her two best friends, Reiha and Chitose, who showed her the poster just as it opened and insisted on having Enka and Koharu taking the job there as well. It took a bit of convincing, especially for Enka, but the trio made it work and were hired on the spot when they applied.
The service is doing well as usual. No complaints, everybody is giving the maids some extra tips for the service and meeting new faces. Reiha and Chitose are also part of working here, which makes everything more lively. Yukiha and Koharu high five each other for their outstanding work and they go their separate ways.
Enka is now washing some dishes when Koharu comes in to help her out. She starts to dry them and put them on the dish rack to let them air out.
"Everything's going well," the cute brunette says. "And Reiha-chan and Chitose-chan are having a good time as usual."
"That's good," Enka says as she hands Koharu a washed dish.
"How long are you going to hide it from Kaori-chan?" Koharu asks as she busies herself with drying a plate.
Enka looks down while washing another plate. "As long as it takes. I…I don't want to shatter my image…"
"It will eventually…" Koharu says with a sad expression.
"Koharu-chan…you don't know what it's like to be insanely admired by someone, even by the person closest to you…" Enka sighs.
"Perhaps, but Kaori-chan still deserves the truth," Koharu says. "Kaori-chan told you what she had been through. It's high time you started doing the same."
Enka bites her lip and hands her girlfriend the washed plate. She knows that she has a point, but in her mind, it's just impossible to figure out how to approach it.
The door opens and in comes Yukiha with a big smile on her face. "I just got triple tipped! They love me so much they're going to come here again every single day!"
Enka smiles a soft smile. "That's wonderful."
"Hehehe! This cafe is up the charts!" Koharu cheers. "Everybody loves us!"
"Keep this up and we may get double in our paycheck~!" Yukiha says with a wink and finger raised up.
"That would be awesome!" Koharu agrees.
Enka smiles a small smile. She's getting used to working at a food related place and this time, it goes without any trouble. This is good. Enka can finally work in peace and actually have fun. This maid cafe is the perfect place to work at.
Just then, Reiha comes barging in the door, out of breath while Chitose is behind her with a weak smile.
"Haaaah….haaah…girls…!" Reiha says, putting a hand on her knee to keep her balance. "There is a…party going on…! We need to…put on a show for them!"
"A show?" Yukiha asks.
"It seems it's a child's birthday," Chitose says, putting a hand on her cheek. "And one of the mothers suggested that we should put on a cat show for them to wish her a happy birthday."
"Where do we get some cat accessories?" Enka inquires, raising an eyebrow.
Reiha straightens up and pumps a fist. "Not to worry! We've got some cat accessories in the break room! See, Honoka-sama and Kotori-sama are ALWAYS prepared! Don't underestimate them!"
"Fufufu! What are we waiting for~?" Chitose clasps her hands together with a smile. "Let's go and entertain our guests~"
Yukiha and Koharu give a nod and start to exit the kitchen when Yukiha turns to Enka, who is standing there.
"Aren't you coming, Enka-sempai~?" she asks.
"I don't know…if I'm up for being very active like this," Enka says. "What i mean is…I'm not usually this hyped up to do some physical activities such as this."
"Aw, but it'll be fun in the end~" Yukiha says. "Here, Reiha-chan, Chitose-chan, Koharu-sempai and I will help guide you~" She outstretches her hand. "Let's go, Enka-sempai~!"
Enka hesitates for a few more seconds before nodding and gently grips her girlfriend's hand. "Alright, Yukiha-chan. Guide me."
**10 minutes Later**
A party of 8 are waiting for their entertainment when Yukiha appears, wearing only cat ears and tail on her behind. She does a cat-like pose while Koharu pops from behind, doing the same exact pose as Yukiha is.
"Nya, nya, nyaaaa~!" Yukiha purrs in an adorable, high voice that is changed from her usual soft and quiet one. "Kitty maids here~!"
"To celebrate someone's birthday!" Koharu finishes. "Nya, nya!"
Chitose brings out the large round cake with Reiha dancing about, meowing as they go along. Enka twirls around and gestures a hand toward the birthday girl, who brightens and claps her hands happily. Yukiha and Koharu spin around and join Enka, taking each other's hands.
"Happy, happy, happy birthday, nya~!" The trio sings together. "Nya, nya, nya! We all wish you….a Happy Birthday!" They strike a cat pose.
"NYA~!" Chitose and Reiha join in on the bottom.
Then, Yukiha sneaks a cute lick on the cheek for Enka. The beautiful brunette squeaks in surprise and jumps back to put her hand on the spot where her girlfriend licked her.
"Y-Y-Yukiha-chan!?" Enka cries.
Everyone starts to laugh at this cute little moment and Enka bows, telling everyone to enjoy the cake. Then, the maids head back to the kitchen to take off their accessories. Enka lets out a loud sigh.
"Yukiha-chan…that wasn't fair…!" she groans.
"A yuri kiss is the policy~!" the cute long haired brunette says.
"That's not the problem!" Enka squeaks, shutting her eyes tightly. "I….ummmm….!"
Chitose pats her on the head. "It's alright, Enka-sempai. It adds to the cuteness."
"Ahhhh…!" Enka is about to die of embarrassment.
Koharu pets her as well with a weak smile. "There, there~"
**Closing Time**
It's 10 minutes until closing time. The rest of the maids leave, but Reiha, Chitose, Enka, Koharu and Yukiha remain inside cleaning up everything and wiping the tables. It takes about a half hour or 45 minutes to get everything tidy when they hear some ringing from the door.
"I'm sorry, we're about to clo-" Yukiha is about to finish her sentence when her eyes widen at the person who came in. "W-w-w-wait! Kaori-chan!?"
"Kaori-chan!?" Koharu says.
"Kaori!?" Enka gasps.
"Eh? We have a new guest?" Reiha says as she turns to the person.
"Oh, my~" Chitose says.
"So this is where Enka-onee-chan works at, hm?" she looks around and gives a nod of approval. "Not bad, not bad. When she told me she was working at some food place, she never mentioned a maid cafe. But…i never knew that this even existed."
"It's the only place that exists," Koharu points out. "At least, for now. When we show the world how yuri truly is, maybe then they will consider building more ladies-only maid cafes. Right now, this is a hit~"
"We're about to close, but we will gladly serve you as our special customer for tonight~" Yukiha offers.
"Yuri…" Kaori says as she closes her eyes. She thinks back on how Sasaki rough housed her and when she got passed around to other people, one of the girls actually kissed her without giving a second thought. "You mean…this is the place where….where…lesbians happen?"
"Y-yeah…" Enka says. "Listen…"
"If that's the case, then I want nothing to do with it," Kaori says. "I'm sorry, but…lesbians can be pretty gross."
"No, no, no, no!" Yukiha waves her arms around frantically. "It's not what you think! Hey, hey, hey, why don't Koharu-chan and I show you the service and maybe that will change your thinking, okay? Please~?"
"Yukiha-chan, I think we should-" Enka starts to say until Kaori speaks up.
"Alright," she says. "I shall see the service. If it's about orgy and everything, I'm out. Enka-onee-chan shouldn't be working in such a place either."
"We assure you," Chitose says. "This Maid Cafe is all about fun, games and lovely yuri service. It's nothing like what you claim to be."
Yukiha and Koharu show her to the table and give her the menu. Once Kaori orders her meal, the girls get right to work. A simple omelette, which is good because it's quick and easy. Enka gets cooking and Yukiha and Koharu help prepare everything. It takes about 15 minutes to cook and make sure the omelette tastes just right. Then, they had Enka serve it to Kaori since she is her big step sister.
"Enjoy your meal," Enka says quietly and Kaori just nods. The beautiful brunette then turns around toward Yukiha. "You do the rest, Yukiha-chan…"
"S-sure…" Yukiha says and then turns to Koharu. The cute brunette nods and decide to service Kaori before she digs in. "Excuse me, Kaori-chan."
"Yes?" the tennis player looks up at the two girls, standing before her.
"Um…there's a policy here in this cafe," Yukiha says. "Well…it has to do with us, not you. I said that we will show you some pure yuri? Well, that's part of the policy. To show you that yuri is good. Here. You ready, Koharu-sempai?"
"Ready~" the cute brunette says.
Kaori watches on as she sees Yukiha and Koharu intertwine hands while facing each other. They gaze into each other's eyes lovingly and then lean in to give a passionate, but brief yuri kiss. Kaori gasps at this. She expected something a bit more than just a kiss, but it's not. Yukiha and Koharu pull away and smile at their special customer.
"You see~?" Koharu says. "This here is all ladies and yuri. Nothing else. The syllabus clearly says that there are absolutely no perverts allowed. So, this cafe is super safe."
"I…I see…" Kaori is stunned by this. From her experience of yuri, it wasn't how it is right now. Why is it so different? Why does it feel different? One thing for sure: Yukiha and Koharu are nothing like Sasaki. "Can you…do it again…?"
"Eh?" Yukiha tilts her head in an adorable confusion.
"Do it again," Kaori begs. "I want to see the yuri kiss again. I can see it as the proper way, right?"
"Yes, it is the proper way," Chitose says, stepping up to the special customer. "It's how it should always be. We're here to help spread the word."
"Enka-sempai~!" Yukiha calls. "How about you go ahead and do it with me, too~?"
"Wha….me!?" Enka gasps. "Yukiha-chan, I cannot…!"
Before she can finish, the cute long haired brunette walks over to her and whispers, "Listen, she doesn't know you're lesbian. She might think this is part of the service. Let her think that way. It's all good."
Enka bites her lip and realizes that Yukiha is right. She is still hiding her secret from her little step-sister, so the service yuri kiss is good. She walks over toward Yukiha and intertwines hands with hers. Kaori gasps and stands up with sparkles in her eyes.
"Ohhhh! Enka-onee-chan is going to demonstrate a yuri kiss, too!?" she brightens. "Oh, this is perfect!"
Enka did not expect this reaction. Yukiha just smiles and leans closer to her.
"See, it's no biggy~" she says. "Now, let's show her a yuri kiss."
"Y-yes…" Enka gives a nod in reply.
Kaori watches on. Yukiha and Enka lean in and gently touch lips. Briefly, but passionately. It's like Kaori's watching a romance film, only it's just girls. When it's done, Enka pulls away, she turns to her little step-sister and notices Kaori is red in the face.
"Um….Kaori?" she asks.
"I didn't know…yuri can be so…wonderful…" the little step-sister says as she puts her hands on her cheeks. "You girls kissed twice today and I'm already…you're right, Yukiha. Oh, my gosh…"
"Hehehe! Now you know, Kaori-chan~" Yukiha says. "Now then, enjoy your meal~"
"I would love to," Kaori says "Grace" and then starts to dig in.
Yukiha, Enka, Koharu, Reiha and Chitose leave to give her some peace and head toward the kitchen.
"That wasn't so bad~" Koharu says. "All it is, is just service~"
"And that how it should be…for her at least," Yukiha says. "But until then…"
"Yeah, I know," Enka says. "But i'm not ready yet, okay? Give me some time…"
Chitose and Reiha walk over toward the trio.
"So, who is Kaori? A friend of Enka-sempai's?" Chitose asks.
"Actually…she's my little step-sister," Enka replies as she shyly fiddles with her fingers.
"Wow! Baby Step-sister~?" Reiha exclaims. "That is so cute! What year is she? I bet she's younger than me~!"
"She's a third year," Enka says. "Just like you are, Reiha."
The petite girl's excitement fades quickly and pouts adorably. "Ohhhh, puuuu!"
Chitose pets her. "There, there~"
**20 minutes later**
Enka comes over to give her step-sister the check once Kaori is done with her food, but Yukiha waves her hand.
"Just this once…" Yukiha says. "Let's just let it be free. I don't think Honoka-sama and Kotori-sama mind since we have a very large service every day. We've made our goal today on how much money we have earned thus far right?"
"I guess," Enka says. "After all, Kaori DID spend all of her money to take a long trip here." She turns to Kaori. "Okay, you're off the hook for today. But you need to get a job in order to earn back the money you just spent."
"Don't worry. I already figured out what kind of job I'm going to do," Kaori says.
"Really? What is it?" Enka asks.
"This one," Kaori simply says.
"Wh-wh-whaaaa…?" Enka's jaw drops at this. "You can't be serious…."
"Awwwww, it'll be fun!" Yukiha says. "You'll get loads and loads of yuri here! Pretty soon, you'll want your own girlfriend~!"
"N-no! Let's not get too ahead of ourselves!" Enka squeaks, flailing her arms around. "This is too quick! Kaori, don't listen to Yukiha-chan! Let's find you a different job!"
"I already told you: here," Kaori says, pointing down at the floor. "I want to see and experience yuri."
Enka then sighs in defeat. "Ahhhh….alright fine. But it's only just a simple start okay? Let's not go any further than this."
"Yaaaaay!" Kaori plunges herself in her big step-sister's arms. "I love you, Enka-onee-chaaaaaan~!"
It is at that moment that Enka regrets agreeing to this.
