Period (1)

Blare. Blare. Blare.

Shut up..

Oh, I wonder why I never thought of changing my alarm? I have to go commando every time I wake up— I'm just worried one day I might just snap and smash my phone..

Wouldn't want that to happen.

Anyways, the sun was still down, the sky was glowing in a dark purple.

I texted my father good morning and scrolled through the group chat, the numerous photos my mom and the little devil— my little sister— took of me and Liliath.

Cute. Honestly.

It'd be nice if Liliath becomes my bride in the future— but I'm sure the path down such a road would be incredibly horny... thorny one.. I mean.

Some of you may be wondering, why in the world am I awake so goddamn early in the morning when it's the summer holidays? Well, simple— my habits.

Though, since Liliath's arrival, my schedule has gone slightly awry. My days were packed full of— Liliath, to say the least.

Figuratively speaking, I had no idea what I'm doing these past few days.

In any case, I fixed that, rearranged my goals and implemented a looser schedule— which is simply 3 intentions a day— much like the tasks that I have to do for the sake of attaining points from the quest that would roll out every day.

That said, Liliath remains my foremost priority.

My suspicions were right, the quests, though random, are based on recent events. Like that one quest that told me to hang Liliath's panties.. don't ask me how it went.. or how I managed to complete such a quest under Liliath's supervision..

That aside, I was quite surprised that my mom got such a design. I think it suited her quite well..

Ahem.

I got up from my bed and headed downstairs.

I took the towel hanging on the rack and went to take a shower.

After which I put on my clothes and hung the towel back on the rack.

Hm...

I was greeted by a quiet living room.

Three intentions today would be to complete at least 2 quests from the quest board, post the landscape illustration I was working on the past few days and finish reading through the electrolysis chapter for chemistry.

Oh have I ever told you about how shitty hard chemistry is? It's like trying to jump over a Grand Canyon. The previous years in junior school only taught you how to jump over a manhole. And don't get me started on additional mathematics.. that's.. even worse.

With my chemistry book in one hand and my notebook in the other, I sat at the kitchen table and started reading.. and taking notes.

It was a while before I heard footsteps coming down the stairs— Liliath.

Beautiful velvet hair that curled around her shoulders, tangled, since she just woke up. Her black nightgown was loose, breasts overflowing from her cleavage for my eyes to see in all its glory. How old was she again? Something wasn't right about the proportions of her body.

Her alluring crimson-purple eyes met mine.

"Good morning, Noel."

"Good morning, Liliath."

We exchanged a simple greeting. A bright smile formed on her face.

"Could I have some water," she asked meekly.

"I'll go get it."

I headed to the kitchen and returned with some water.

"Thank you," sitting down, she yawned once before downing the glass.

Cute... overflowing cuteness. My mind is filled with many little Liliaths bouncing about in a white fluffy divine space.

Let's be honest here, I've been noticing a subtle change in the way I think about Liliath.. I've been using all sorts of indecent phrases lately.

I have to be careful not to get too carried away..

Liliath is attractive. She'd literally sweep any male off their feet. I can imagine the long queue of people if there was a sigh that hung around her neck, saying that she was offering free hugs.

I want to hug her.

But I'm scared to do so.

I don't know how Liliath really feels about me.

She placed the glass back on the table with a clink.

"I suppose I'll take a bath," she headed off to the bathroom, taking the towel from the rack before locking the door.

...

I used that towel just now..

Actually, why did Liliath decide to wake up so early? She sleeps together with the little devil, and the devil hates the early mornings.

My sister, the devil, is the late bird that catches the worm. Don't be fooled by her innocence, she's in fact, a fairly intellectual creature– a genius.

—You can't trust me.

Those words of hers rang in my head.

What did she mean?

I mean.. It's not like Liliath has a split personality or anything like that right? If she did.. or maybe it's more like having different personas? Everyone has different personas.

She even reminded me to be careful of her during the days that followed. I'm sure she would say the same thing if I asked her about it today. Maybe.. she's telling me to keep tabs on her, knowing that she can't even trust herself?

11 am.

The time shown on my phone.

Whenever I think about my phone, I'm brought back to the time my manga reader app went poof. Replaced by this cutesy app with this weird-looking diva icon.

It's.. unnerving, as if the diva in question was ogling me every time I opened the screen.

I tapped the app.
