Eula's Hobby

12. Eula's Hobby

The lunch ended and Shan Yuezhi bade farewell to her friend. As I tagged along with her, of course, I will go with her.

"Thank you for the meal miss Shan. And sorry for the trouble I've caused." I said as we left the restaurant.

"Wait!" she pulled out my sleeve forcefully, I could only say thanks she didn't use her super. I'm afraid It would tear if she did that. She then said. "Let's exchange our contact."

"Ahh, but why?"

"Your sister asked for it, so obediently give it. Give me your phone," she demanded with pursed lips and palm upward.

No matter how I see it, seems like she's inwardly attracted to me. Heh, maybe there's really a charm passive superpower in me like what that blonde nurse stated.

Anyway, I'm also interested in having more girlfriends, and her superpower is quite interesting too. So yeah. I gave her my phone after rolled my eyes, acting as if I'm annoyed with her antics. 

"Why you look like you're unwilling?" she rolled her eyes back at me.

"Impossible, I'm willing. Of course, I'm willing miss—, I mean big sister Shan."

"There ... this noon we ate with my friend, and you almost ruined it. So it doesn't count. I'll treat you to a meal again next time."

"So you want to treat me a meal. Will it be only two of us?" I asked.

"That sounds marvel."

"Is this ... a date invitation?" 

"Stop speaking nonsense! Who the hell want to date you?" she got angry and shouted, but her anger also looks pretty cute.

"Oohh ... alright then." I put a sad face facing downward, but a beat later I put on a bright smile and apologized. "Sorry for getting a head start. However, I will be looking forward to it, big sister Shan."

"Y-yeah ... but let me remind you it won't be a date! It won't be a date, but ..."

Ohhh ... this is, is this the acting as if refusing but actually already agreed in her heart? The legendary tsundere?

"But ...?" I asked showing my wolfish grin. She noticed the fact that I was making it now and instantly got agitated.

"Scoundrel, you dare to tease me! I'm older than you, you darned cheap boy!" she pulled my cheek and played with it.

"Sowwy, em sowwewy eldew sistew Sann ..." I apologized speaking in gibberish while still under her mercy, did she use her super? It's hurt like crazy!

"Hmph ..." 

She returned my phone. I turned around and bade farewell once again.

"Then, I'll be going."

"I ... I'll walk you home." 

What is she saying all of a sudden? Wait, don't tell me ...

"If I may ask, where is your address?"

"I live in Harahap Street number ... emm, what number is it again? I can't remember, anyway there's a big house with a tall palm tree in the yard. That's my house."

This woman ... are you for real? Did you not know the exact address of your own house? Oh god, is that even possible? And what, Harahap Street is about three districts away in the opposite direction from my apartment! 

"I think ... it should be you who needed someone else to escort you back home."

"... yeah, you're right on that." she slumped her shoulder, resigned.

"Let's get back to my place first, I'll send you home after I changed clothes. It's not that far, anyway."

"R-really?" she looked as if she couldn't believe what I just said.

"Yeah ... it's this way."

"But won't it inconveniencing your family?"

"At this time of the hour, there's only my sister, and she rarely went out from her room. It won't be a problem."

"Alright, I'll follow your arrangement." we walked out of the restaurant, but then, "Ahh, wait! You forget your tofu!"

Why did she remember something like that? You even forget your address, couldn't read the map and don't know where's north and south. You should just forget about this tofu thing and don't mention it. It's still with me, it's inside me ... in my, whatever magical organ that is. 

Sighing inwardly ... I entered the restaurant to 'retrieve' my groceries. We returned to the apartment by walking.

The second daughter, Eula Koei has a rather unusual hobby that she keeps secret from the rest of her family. While everyone in the house already knows that she has a tack in a computer and a hacker, no one knows about the real reason she dabbled in this expertise. Before continuing further on this topic, let's inspect her daily activities.

Eula was a night owl thanks to her nocturnal super condition. After a few months of living with this condition, her biological clock also turned upside down. She slept at least five hours a day, between seven o'clock in the morning until noon. So 1-2 PM is the time when she usually woke up from her slumber.

Today as well, the clock was on 12.39 PM and she just woke up from her sleep. She went down to the first floor while still on her deranged appearance. She cooked instant noodles for herself and pick up a big bottle of soft drink and a pack of potato chips before heading back to her room. She tapped on her mechanical keyboard and the computer which was put on hibernate start up once again. The three monitor screens lit up showing the un-closed windows applications.

Eula checked the discord application on one side and opened Spotify on another screen. After found out that there's nothing interesting, she turned to the third QLED screen and opened her tracking application. 

She has installed a trojan ware which let her track someone else device. At first, it was only her family ... but she successfully installed it all to almost all of her high school friends... and even to some of her community friends that she knows from the forum. The purpose of the application is to monitor their location according to their GPS. It updated per 30 seconds, and as long as the device connected to the internet ... the tapped device location will be shown. 

Clicking the F5 button to refresh the screen and loading the latest feed.

"Oh?" she let out a surprised voice. Her sleepy lifeless eyes lit up because her beloved little one was coming home. 

Last night, she was so worried and anxious because he did not come home and was instead ... his phone sends a signal that he's in an enormous mansion on Gregoria Housing Complex. That place was some place of rich First Class Upper Echelon Technocrat ... why and what would the little one do in such a place?

Whereas when she asked her mother, she said that he needs to do several tests of his ability so the military took him away. But usually, the awakened will be taken to the Training Hall and not to some mansion. And why they did it right after his awakening? What the hell is happening? Why would the military bring him to such a place?

As her stalker-ish behavior triggered, she hacked the surveillance camera on the rich housing complex and was ... dumbfounded because she found out several female soldiers entering the mansion minutes after the little one. She tried to hack the house's inner security system but found out that she couldn't breach it.

Thus, it was a long night for her ... she was dead curious and couldn't stop thinking about the little one. She couldn't concentrate on her drawing despite the haunting deadline of her Webtoon series. She tried to do several things this night just to hack that mansion number 20 inner security system ... pushing her superpower ability to the fullest.

However, it didn't work. She failed throughout the code war. She gave up and flop down to her bed because it was already dawn and she was dead tired. It is better to ask the little one himself when he returns.

And now ... he already got near this apartment. Eula put the feed of this tower surveillance camera which she already hijacked and under her control to the second screen. She could see the little one who was still so handsome and cool in his school uniform walking with an older woman who looks Chinese. 

She thought her eyes were failing her, but even after she rubbed it ... that Chinese woman still walking side by side with him. They even talked along the way like some old friend.

'Who the fuck is this bitch!?' suddenly, she stood up and hurled a silent curse to no one in particular. Her lips were moving, but no voice comes out.

A wave of fuming anger and jealousy pumped her heart faster, as the bluish vein appeared on her clean forehead. She opened the potato chips and grabbed a handful of them before swallowing them in an unladylike manner. The only snack that could somehow ease her burning anger.

Eula thought about it for a second and suddenly think of an idea. She smiled wickedly as she planned her plan. 

She gobbled the rest of the noodle without caring for her image and dashed to the kitchen. She then sprinted toward the bathroom and brushed her teeth and wash her face rather quickly. After finding out that there's nothing stuck on her face, she smiled sweetly to herself across the mirror. 

"I'm home."

"Excuse me ..." 

The little one brought that woman inside the house. 

"Ah, you can sit there and wait. I'll go change first."

"I'll wait."

Eula popped out from the bathroom playing with her phone. While the little one was entering the kitchen with groceries. They passed each other.

"Sis Eula?"

"Ah, you're back." she tried to sound apathetic.

"You're ... coming out from your room? That's rare."

She just shook her head not bothering to answer. She prepared the espresso machine to brew a coffee, "I heard a woman's voice, a guest?"

"Yeah, she's ... a friend," Arman answered while his hand busy arranging the vegetables in the fridge.

"Oh? From school? And since when you have a girlfriend?"

"No, she's not. I met her today on the marketplace and helped her, she treats me to a meal. I am about to send her back home, but because it's near, I decided to come home and change clothes first."

"Sent her home? You will? Did she lost her purse or something?"

"Well, something happened. Some odd inexplicable things ... yeah."

"... where were you last night? And what did you do?"

"I ... erm ... with the help of the military, I had tested my super condition, its effect, and limitation last night. Why?"

"Nothing, just curious. So, what kind of ability did you awakened?"

"It's confidential information, and I can't disclose it even to you. Sorry, Eul."

"Playing little secret, aren't you? Is your power need to be 'tested' by dozen of women?" she emphasized a certain word in that question.

"Whu-wwhat are you talking about?" Arman stared at her in shock with an ashen expression as he stammered.

Eula has finished brewing her coffee. She approached him and squinted her eyes. 

Leaning her well-accentuated body up close to him, slowly she said. "You're so bad at lying, you always paused a few seconds whenever you got caught unprepared before answering. I know you like the palm of my hand. So ... what my little one is hiding?"

"I am sorry ... but the matter regarding my superpower is confidential, as it's secret information I can't disclose it to anyone."

"Hmm ... very well then, let's just put the matter about your power to the side. Then what about that bi—, I mean, that woman? Is she really not your girlfriend?" she pushed once again.

But rather than getting an answer, Arman sighed and pushed her shoulder. His eyes stared at her contain some kind of hidden desire which she never realizes before. 

"She really is my friend. And there's nothing going on between us. Now please step aside, I need to get changed."

Arman pushed her to the side and walked past her.

"You ..." this is the first time that the little one dared to do this.

'I'm worried about you for the entire night, and when you return you bring along that bitch! Now, you would rather prioritize on her rather than answering my question?! You're just the little one, my little one, how could you do this to me?' Eula's train of thought getting riled as she felt his treatment of her is kinda unfair.

Right ... it's time to return with the topic about the second daughter's unusual hobby. As you would have guessed, it was her tracking, stalking, and hacking of everyone around her life. Mostly the little one, Arman Maul.

However, she did all of that because of Arman; she wanted to be the foremost to know where is he, what is he doing, and who's currently with him. At first, she did it out of spur moment. Wanting to know what her little one's doing. But then, after she got too engrossed in this ... her desire to stalk him become more apparent and she become, crooked.

As the only male that was close with her in these past few years, he was irreplaceable in her heart. When she was still in high school, she received many confessions from the boys. Be it your average joe, prince charming type, arrogant young master, sport junky, martial art practitioner ... all kind type of boys confessed to her because of her peerless look, good grades, and of course her rich family. But she rejected them all as she subconsciously compared them with the little one and found out that they're lacking.

Thus, her desire to dominate him, to own him, and make all of him belong to her was immense. Maybe, her possessiveness didn't lose with a yandere character archetype that featured in her comic.

She couldn't tolerate it when other women come close with him, well aside from her sister and mother. When she was still attending high school, her presence which always beside him is practically a repellant to the women who tried to get closer with Arman. But now, she could only do it discreetly while avoiding his notice.

But now ... this random bitch suddenly pops out of nowhere. Even she didn't have a single clue about who is she and how come Arman invited her to their lovely house. It's her home, Arman should not and could never bring back a woman!
