The morning light spills in through the office window, bathing everything in a soft glow. The shared office is still quiet, too quiet... With one hand gently resting on my stomach and the other lightly touching the edge of the desk, I lean back slightly, tilting my head to gaze at the world outside, my purple and black hair cascading down my shoulders.

"Hmm… You are not here yet," I muttered to myself, pouting slightly. "Are you late? Again?!"

A playful smirk tugged at the corner of Elana's lips.

"Well, who cares~ maybe it’s a good chance to slack off a bit!"

I take a deep breath, feeling the warmth of the morning sun.
