"Aahh... finally the happy ending of Luke's route. I can sleep a little more restfully tonight."
The girl with the ash brown hair, who had been playing a dating simulation game incessantly for a long time, finally laid down on the soft bed. Her eye bags were getting darker because she had not slept for two days playing the game. Her lips curved into a smile as she pulled the blanket to cover half of his body, she was so happy with Luke's character that she thought she had already conquered. Hope the characters can be entered into a dream. For the sake of mythological gods, she wouldn't want to wake up if that really happened.
Not yet an hour into her sleep, her door opened and a woman entered the room, then she had the heart to open the curtains, so the morning sun burst into the room, waking the maniac game.
"Wake up, Casey! It's already morning, you need to get to campus," said the woman as she patted her daughter's cheeks, shoulders, and feet. Instead of waking up, Casey groaned and changed her sleeping position. Seeing Casey's response, made the woman emotional. "Casey! Wake up or I'll throw you in the pool!"
"Ah, Mom! I've only had an hour of sleep! Can I just skip this one time?" Casey replied, her eyes still closed.
"Haah... of course not, Honey. Especially the reason you're sleepy is that to play the games until the morning. Hurry up and get ready, the driver is waiting for you."
"Then you don't have to wait for me to go to work."
"I'll have to wait or else you won't go to college."
"No, Mom, just trust me. I'll be up in five minutes." Her words and actions were out of sync, Casey tightened his blanket instead. Of course, this made her mother's eyebrows furrow, "That's bullshit! Wake up quickly, don't make me late for work!" said the mother as she dragged her daughter into the bathroom.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Casey had just arrived on campus casually. Her mother was very forced to go first because the clock showed seven o'clock in the morning, Casey's heart screamed with joy and she went back to sleep after finishing breakfast. If she is not allowed to skip a day, at least she can skip one class to rest her tired body.
Since morning, her cell phone has been ringing with many messages she hasn't read, but she knows the messages must be from her best friend.
The first-class should have ended, but Casey waited in her faculty cafeteria. Her fingers typed a message for her best friend while sipping the boba she had just ordered.
Not long after that, in the distance, Casey could see a girl with burgundy hair with glasses that were always perched on her sharp nose, who was none other than her best friend. Casey waved her hand for herself to be seen.
"How long has it been here?"
I just arrived. El, what do you want? I'll treat you," said Casey, making Eleana furrow her eyebrows in wonder. Why does this strange girl suddenly want to pay for her food?
"Why is it so suddenly?"
Casey's expression became happy and then pounded the table, making many people pay attention to both of them. "You want to know?"
"What? Can you not bang the table? People are looking at us!"
"I don't care! The most important thing is that I could be married to Luke!"
" ... huh?"
Casey was holding her cheek, starting to have a happy imagination. "Two days after I completed Luke's route, it was on his route that I really fell in love! Isn't there anyone in the real world who looks like him?"
"Oh, so because of this you skipped class." Eleana looked at her best friend flatly, she had started to get used to Casey's behavior, which could be considered magical.
"Once you play, you'll be addicted."
"Thanks for the offer, but I refuse," rejected Eleana firmly. Her eyes were focused on the menu, leaving Casey with her imagination and she could get a free meal.
Casey pouted, her right-hand cupping her cheek lazily. "Why are you so allergic to games?"
"Because I don't wanna be crazy like you. I ordered first, you really will pay for it, right?"
"... damn it. Yes, yes, I'll pay the bill!"
In just five minutes, Eleana was back at the table. While waiting for her order, Eleana gave the class information to Casey, the girl listened even though she had just entered the right ear straight out to the left ear.
Casey doesn't really like her current major. Majoring in Business Management at her mother's request. If she could choose, she would like to be in the architecture department like her father used to be. Although the figure has left herself since the age of 12 years old, Her childhood memories were when her father taught her how to draw a house in a simple way according to Casey's age at that time and the memories that sometimes brought tears to her eyes because the longing was too deep.
Now she lives alone with her mother and a few housemaids. Her mother, who is busy working, makes her lonely. She finally vented by playing games.
She didn't blame her mother. In fact, she really loved the woman who had given birth and cared for her with great affection, even though she often quarreled but only had small fights because she was disobedient and had a lot of bad behavior. Yea, it can't be helped that Casey is in the rebellious phase.
"You've done Mrs. Loria's task, haven't you?" Eleana asked, bringing Casey out of her thoughts.
"Eh? What kind of tasks?"
Eleana took a deep breath, then took out her workbook to Casey. "Copy, class will start soon."
Seeing Eleana's noble deeds, Casey's eyes sparkled, unable to speak. According to her, Eleana is like an angel from heaven who is destined to help with some of the problems in her life. Casey covered her mouth, started acting. "I love you, I don't know how I would live without-"
Eleana smacks Casey in the mouth with a book to stop the crazy girl from saying ridiculous things. "Stop talking, you're making noise pollution even worse."
"Eleana with her sharp mouth...."
***
This afternoon's lecture has ended at three o'clock in the afternoon. Casey said goodbye to Eleana because the driver had been waiting for thirty minutes. She was used to the queen's protective attitude, aka her mother, although sometimes Casey also wanted to feel free to stop at a coffee shop or go to the place she wanted with Eleana and other friends.
Casey also wants to experience having a boyfriend! For God's sake, during her 19 years of life, she was never close to a male except for her father or her personal driver. So don't be surprised why her imagination is so wild.
Though, according to her, she was not so bad-looking.
"What time will my mom be home, Willy?" Casey asked the driver, Willy. The man was still young, so Casey casually called him names.
"As usual, at eight o'clock in the evening, Miss," Willy replied, still focused on driving. Casey just nodded her head, then went back to looking at the scenery outside the car window.
About twenty minutes after Casey had arrived at her house, she didn't forget to say thank you to Willy and then quickly entered the house to her room.
Casey threw down her backpack and plopped down on the bed with her eyes closed. "Home sweet home," Casey mumbled enjoying the coolness of the room and the minty scent of the air diffuser she had just turned on.
Knock, knock!
"Yes? Just open it!" Casey replied a little louder.
The door opened, revealing the housemaid who had brought some food and dessert for her, "Miss, is this the food, or do you want to take a shower first?"
Casey shook his head. "I'll eat first, thanks, Emily!" she said with a sweet smile.
The housemaid returned Casey's smile and excused herself back to the kitchen.
