I got home and took a warm bath. Val was a tough competitor but unfortunately, not the smartest.
I came out with a towel and sat in front of my computer. There was a new notification and when I opened it, I realized it was an interview for the post of an intern at a fashion house.
Basically, I would be there to learn the basics of fashion design which includes bags, shoes, clothes and other accessories.
I jumped at the offer and checked the scheduled date for the interview. Luckily for me, it was on Wednesday and I didn't have lectures on that day.
Sighing, I leaned back to relax but in the next minute, I realized that I didn't know anything about fashion and I couldn't help but wonder what questions they would ask.
Would they ask me the names of machines and tools used in the production of shoes and bags?
"Oh Ayla... You're so doomed." my hands pulled on my eye bag and in the next moment, my head fell on the desk as I lamented in frustration.
I remained there for a while until my phone began to ring. "Hello." Kel was the person calling and I wondered if she knew what had happened to her mother yet.
"Ayla, have you gotten home?" she asked and I nodded.
"Um... I just came in an hour ago." I reported checking the clock by my bedside.
There was silence for a while at the other end until she finally said what she wanted to. "Someone wants to talk to you."
My brows furrowed and I wondered who this could be. From the tone of Kel's voice, it didn't sound like a very nice person.
"Hello." a calm voice came from the other end and I instantly knew who it was.
"Kara?" I asked for confirmation and she responded with a 'Yes'.
A sigh left my lips and I couldn't control my emotions. "How are you? When did you wake up?" I asked like a curious fellow.
"Not too long ago," she responded.
I sighed in relief knowing that she was out of danger, not just medically but physically. She was finally away from her evil stepmother.
"Thank you..." she still sounded tired but a couldn't control the smile that crept on my face.
I nodded even though I knew she couldn't see it through the phone. "Yes. Now get well fast so that you won't gain all the attention in school." I joked around and heard her chuckle.
"I'll give the phone to Kel now," she informed before passing the phone back to Kel.
I pursed my lips wondering how to explain to her about her mother's case. Although I wasn't the one who trapped her, I would have done it without batting an eyelid if I was in the position to.
"Kel I..."
"You don't have to explain if it's about my mother. There was no other way." she cut in and spoke calmly.
"Um." I hesitated and that was the only thing I could say.
"See you in school tomorrow." she was about to end the call and I nodded.
"Um... Goodnight." with that, the lines got disconnected and I let out a heavy sigh.
I logged into Skype and an incoming call popped up almost instantly. I giggled and jumped on the bed before taking it.
"Hey..." I smiled when his face showed on the screen.
"You haven't slept yet." Gerard's lips curved up slightly.
"Um-um." I shook my head in denial. "What about you? When are you still up?" I asked and he showed me the time on his watch and it was 6:20 am.
"Huh... It already morning?" I asked surprised and he nodded. I didn't know why but the time difference across the world remains a mystery to me and I can't still get over it.
"Ah... I see. It's 11:21 pm now." I nodded in understanding and couldn't help but marvel at the fact that it was already morning where he was.
Gerard's brow furrowed then he tilted his head. "What are you wearing?" he asked with a confused look on his face.
"Huh?" I looked down and realized I was still with my towel. "Oh this, I just finished taking my bath."
He nodded in understanding and I wanted to tell him all about my day. "So what did you do today?" he asked as though reading my mind.
I smiled and began to say so many things. "Remember the creature Qin told you about?" I asked and Gerard's brow furrowed a little.

"You went after it?" he asked with his brow curved upwards.
"It was trapped by Mr Johnathan, the husband. Apparently, he was also suffering at the hands of his wife. Tsk... How weird." I answered evading the question.
"It's good that she was trapped because she could become even more dangerous to society if her spree continues," he explained and I smiled widely feeling proud inwardly.
"You did great."
I didn't expect this sentence.
"Huh?" I looked up confused at what he was talking about. He didn't find out, did he?
"Qin told me you went after the basilisk." he casually mentioned and I felt like a disobedient kid who was confronted by her father.
I lowered my head and pursed my lips. "I honestly wanted to come back right away after getting his report but he told me about it only after the did had already been done."
I raised my head and smiled awkwardly. "Well, you see, I didn't want to bother you with unimportant stuff like that so I..."
I didn't know what exactly to say because if I was being honest, I didn't even think before acting. All I knew was I wanted to keep Kara away from danger and I didn't really care if I got into danger myself. Too bad I can't help but get inquisitive when I see cases like these.
Gerard folded his arms and leaned back. "You don't have to explain."
I sighed in relief seeing how considerate he was but in the next minute, all my hopes crumbled.
"Your punishment awaits you," he said this so casually but I couldn't help but feel threatened by it.
I looked at him with my lips curled downwards as I made a pitiful face. I pulled my ear and retorted. "I promise I'll be a good girl from now on. No more willful actions." I assured but the god of country C wasn't going to be convinced so easily.
"That's a case for when I get back. For now, think of all the things you would do to a disobedient kitten. Maybe then, I can decide what to do when I get back." he didn't sound threatening at all and I knew he was making jokes.
'Tch... I'll just punch you through the phone to make my punishment even worse.' I pouted as I thought of punching his cute face.
"Did you do anything else?" he asked and I scoffed.
"Why should I tell you? You might just make my punishment even worse." I retorted earning a chuckle in return.
"Are you really not going to tell me?" he asked playfully with his brow raised and I folded my arms then turned my face away from him
"Whatever." I stubbornly replied and he smiled.
"Why? Did I get you mad?" he asked knowing full well that he did.
"Don't worry. I'll wash all the dishes and play the role of a house husband when I come home," he responded.
"Tsk... You get to choose your punishment but I don't have a choice?" I pouted but on second thought, watching him play the role of a househusband wasn't bad at all.
An evil idea crept into my brain and I suddenly couldn't wait for him to come home.
"Would you like to punish me yourself?" he asked and I shook my head instantly.
"No... It's fine. Play the role of a househusband. I wish there were kids to make this even worse." I whispered then bit my lower lips planning my next attack.
"What did you say?" he asked and I couldn't tell the exact expression his face was making.
"Huh?" I asked unsure what he was talking about.
"Did you just say you want kids?" he asked with a smile on his face and my brows instantly furrowed.
"What! When did you hear me say that?" I asked angrily. Although I found kids adorable, I admired them only from a distance. I couldn't handle the thought of having one.
Gerard laughed seeing me act up and decided to drop it "So tell me, did you do anything else?" he asked and he sighed.
"Nothing much... Ah yes, I got a job interview from Wishes. I'll be going there on Wednesday." I reported happily and he smiled.
"See... I got a job even without trying so hard." I smiled proudly and the conversation continued till I eventually fell asleep.

Kel stood in front of the mirror and drew her sleeves up.. Her skin was very dry and there were scales on her arm.
