Ch 235: Overtime is bullshit

Rika's bed was soft and comfortable. She was also alone in her shared room because Charon decided to sleep at her friend's house.

During dinner time, Flourite had to hold Fey back from asking any questions about Rika's day, which had been amusing. 

But nothing beats the comfort of Rika's bed and the warmth of its embrace after a hard day at work. Rika's eyes threatened to close while she relaxed on that soft mattress.

*ring*

The sound of her phone's sharp tone made Rika wake up instantly from the half-dozed state she was currently in, and she yawned before picking up the phone without looking at the caller ID.

"How was the first day at your work? Did you have a lot of fun? Did anyone cause you trouble? You can tell me all about it. I'll take care of anything you want me to."

Emily's voice washed over Rika like a soothing balm. It made her body relax, and all the stress from the day bled out of her body.
