NOVEL WEB Chapter 76: A new original heroine
Marino Tobise.
She was a character in Ojojama and she was a heroine that colored the story well.
She was a popular character that appeared quite late in the manga that won over many fans due to her appearance, demeanour and plain atmosphere.
She had a calming personality and an onee-san type of look that permeats the energy to her atmosphere.
She was the main onee-san type character in Ojojama.
“Nice to meet you.”
Marino Tobise smiled as she said that.
If I remember correctly, the fans called her Marinon or Mari-nee.
“Y-Yo, nice to meet you Tobise-san.”
I was flustered on the inside but tried not to have it surface on the outside, so I greeted her normally.
“Yes, it’s nice to meet you, can I call you Tsukasa-kun.”
“Eh? Ahh, it’s fine.”
“Thanks, You’re in your second year of high school, aren’t you Tsukasa-kun? What school do you go to? ”
“Tojoin-High.”
“Ehh? Really? I used to go there too.”
Tobise spoke with a wide smile on her face.
If we were in a manga, the atmosphere around us would have tons of flowers blooming beautifully.
I mean I never expected to meet Marino Tobise, another heroine of the series at my part-time job.
I believe she must have been almost 20 when she first appeared in the story.
She said she was 19 earlier, which means that she would meet Yuuichi after her birthday.
I never thought that I would meet her before Yuuichi.
“It’s great that you guys are hitting it off so well. But is it fine if I explain what the job entails to him first?”
“Ahh, sorry manager.”
“Yes, but I already know most of it, right?”
“You’ve only been here for a week Tobise-san, why don’t you learn it with Hisamura-kun just to be safe.”
“Understood.”
Tobise-san replied with a casual tone.
“Besides there are still some parts of you that could use some work….”
The manager replied in a hushed voice so that Tobise-san couldn’t hear him properly.
Now that I think about it, Marino Tobise was a natural klutz type of character too.
I was then taught the entire process of my job with Tobise-san.
When a customer arrives, I show them to an empty seat, serve them some water and take their orders while informing the manager of their orders and finally delivering them when they’re ready.
After the thorough explanation, a customer walked in.
“Fufu, very good Hisamura-kun, I can’t believe that this is your first time doing this.”
“Ahaha. Thank you.”
Well I had a part-time job in my previous life too.
It’s almost exactly the same as what I did back then, so I can manage pretty well.
“When you get more used to the surroundings, I’ll leave the cooking to you, if you’re fine with it, that is.”
“Got it, I’m fine with that.”
It’s not an exaggeration to say that part of the reason was for me to learn more.
“Manager, I accidentally spilt water.”
“Yes, I’ll wipe it, go get another glass and give it to the customer.”
“Un”
I think that Tobise-san is kind of an airhead…
“Ahh, I forgot the order, can I go take it again?”
“Un, good luck with that. Honestly, I’m glad we have more young and attractive part timers like Hisamura-kun.”
“Huh, thank you.”
Manager Saito is also somewhat relaxed in a way that only an old man can be, which may be why he gets along so well with Tobise.
We continued to learn about the job together.
After lunch time, the customers had dwindled, so Tobise-san and I took our lunch break at the same time.
“I’m sorry for having you suddenly work at lunch time. Please have this meal, it’s on me.”
“Wah, It’s the managers staff meal! Tsukasa-kun, it’s really delicious.”
“Ahaha, don’t raise the hurdle so high, Tobise-san.”
“Thank you, manager.”
Tobise-san and I took the Staff meal and went to the staff rooms to begin eating.
We got a 30-minute break so we could settle down and eat calmly.
“Mmm, delicious! I knew Manager’s cooking was very good.”
“It’s true, it’s very tasty.”
Today we were having Naporitan. Which is really good.
If I can cook this well, I can also serve this to Rie and Sei.
I can’t wait to learn more and get to cook this ASAP!
“Mmm! Thanks for the meal.”
“Hmm?!”
I haven’t even finished half of my meal while Tobise-san had already finished hers.
Come to think of it, I think she was set up to eat as much as Yuuichi even though she was supposed to be the calm older sister character.
There’s also a setting where it’s said that all her food goes to her breasts and it’s actually true.
“Wow, you’re so great Tsukasa-kun, you’ve already picked up almost everything on the job.”
“I don’t think I’m at that level yet.”
“Eh? Did you not have a part time job before?”
“N-No, I haven’t had one before.”
“Really? That’s amazing, I can’t believe that you can do so much already.”
The truth is I did have one in my past life, but it’s not like I can just say that to her.
On the topic of previous life, Back to the topic of Marino Tobise, She’s a is definitely a heroine from Ojoujama.
But the main heroines of the series are still Tojoin and Fujise.
In other words, she’s just another heroine who’ll never get together with Shigemoto.
My girlfriend as well as my sister are in the same position as her. A losing heroine.
“Fuu, I moved around a lot, I broke quite a sweat.”
Tobise-san wiped the sweat off her forehead and exhaled.
That’s true. It’s June right now so it’s almost summer.
The temperature of the store is at a delicate state, So the eternal battle of whether to turn on the air-conditioning or not was going to be happening.
“At least during the break I can release a couple of buttons.”
“Well, I think we can afford that much.”
“That’s right.”
Having said this, Tobise-san opened the top three buttons of her shirt.
“Haah, these uniforms are so stuffy and hard on the chest.”
She used the hole in her shirt to fan her insides.
“…!”
Without a second of pause, my gaze immediately dolted away.
Those three buttons allowed me to see her cleavage as well as barely skim at her underwear.
I caught a glance of pink whilst she was in the middle of fanning herself.
“Tobise-san you can’t open more than two buttons or they’ll show off your chest.”
“Hmm? I don’t mind if they see my chest though.”
“No, you can’t, it’s not just your chest that’s showing, it’s your underwear too.”
“Ahaha, that’s pretty embarrassing.”
After that, she finally put one putton back.
However her cleavage was still plenty visible, so I’ll have to try my best to not look at her.
“Fufu, you’re kind of cute Tsukasa-kun.”
“Please don’t tease me too much…”
I said with a sigh.
Marino Tobise is undoubtedly the heroine of Ojojama.
Why is it that a character from the middle of the series, someone who is not the main heroine, was so popular?
That’s because she’s the heroine whos in charge of the ‘fan-service’ and causes a lot of ‘lucky’ moments to say the least.
