The sky got darker.
Iesa was peeking at the door from time to time while stiffly sitting on the couch in her living room. She was not doing anything else except just sitting there for over half an hour now.
Sometimes, she would stand up and walk to and fro. She was not worried, no, she was feeling an entirely different emotion rather than what her appearance was showing.

The doorbell rang and it made her jolt up from her seat. But before opening the door, she looked at the mirror one last time, checking if there's anything wrong with her looks.
"Haa..."
She breathed out and smelled it.
'It doesn't smell bad, right?'
There was no reason for her breath to smell but she still checked. After school that day, she took a bath and brushed her teeth. She set up the living room as if she's expecting to meet a VIP. Not to mention her clean room.
All of this last-minute check-up didn't even last a minute.
