THE first one to welcome Astrid was his AI housekeeper cat. "Welcome back, Master."
Astrid crouched down and picked up the cat. "Has my brother returned?"
"Yes, Master. He's currently sleeping right now."
Astrid nodded. He lightened his steps so as not to disturb Reas' sleep. But as if hearing his arrival, the door to the room opened. His brother walked out with messy ice-blue hair and a pair of sleepy teal-gray eyes.
"You're back," the other said with a yawn.
"If you're still sleepy, then go back to sleep," he said with a helpless smile.
"It's fine. If I sleep more, I may not be able to sleep later," Reas said, walking to the couch and sitting on it.
"Did you eat lunch?" Astrid asked as he sat beside the other, putting the cat on his lap.
"Yeah. How's your audition by the way?"
"It went well. I just have to wait for three days to know the result," Astrid responded.
