I heard knocking. Who would willingly be awake at- I checked the time- 5am!?
"Hello?" I answered.
"Hi Evangeline. I heard about Domaku's short-comings last night and I thought I would check on Aria. She needs to join the main team around 6 pm tonight at the hotel bar," He let himself in. Yukio went straight to her room and knocked. "By the way, I don't think I told you yet. You're joining the main team as well. Except you aren't taking anyone's place."
"Why? I thought I was still a prisoner here."
"Remember you agreed to join the Doma Daka? That agreement came with commitments. You are going the same time as Aria. Down to the bar. I will bring over fancy dresses later on."
"What do you wa- Yukio? What are you doing up at 5am?" Aria was extremely irritated. Once I tried to wake her up early after a sleepover and she bit me.
"Evangeline will tell you."
"Don't pin this on me!" I proceeded to explain to Aria the schedule for today.
"Seriously? You guys woke me up at 5 am for this?"
"Here I'll get you some coffee."
"Where did you find coffee beans?"
"They were in the cabinet when we got here. There are also some teabags but I figured you wouldn't want them because they're lemon."
"Well of course I want them but I can't have them."
"Right. Here's your coffee," I said as I placed it on the table. I went back to grab my lemony lea.
"Thanks."
"You're welcome," I took a sip of my roasting tea, "HOT DAMMIT."
"Nice. Not loud at all." Now it was Aria's turn.
I heard knocking at the door. At the same time he let himself in, Aria took a sip of her coffee."Geez Evangeline! Why did you make this so hot!"
"It was meant to cool down."
"Well I was back with your dresses for tonight but it looks like I need a new batch. Thanks." Yukio left.
"While he's gone, what are we going to do about my vision?"
"When he comes back with new dresses, ask him about getting new glasses or contacts. I'd get glasses so you don't have to put stuff in your eyes."
"Don't you think they'll be suspicious?"
"I'd rather you be able to see than not."
"Ok girls I'm back. You two are lucky my assistant, Mrs. Gold, had extras. Here's yours Aria and here's yours Evangeline. Go try them on."
"Ehhhh do we have to? I just got up.." Aria started to complain.
"Just do it," I convinced her.
"Don't get any more coffee on them though." We headed towards our rooms.
A little while later we both came out."For once I'm in a comfortable dress." I followed after her.
