"Rie."
Sachiko's voice soothed my ears as I opened my eyes.
"Time to get up," she said.
I rolled over on the bed toward her and wrapped my arm around her. My body quickly warmed up.
She chuckled. "We need to get ready."
"I know, I know."
She gave me a peck on the lips before getting out of bed. She grabbed her clothes and walked out of the room.
I reached for my phone on the nightstand beside the bed and unlocked it. The headline on the news instantly caught my eye.
'The Kawahara scientists announce their resignation from the research amid the controversy caused by the side effects of their experiments.'
Wow, that sucks. They are weird, but they aren't bad people.
I kept checking the news channels I followed, which were mostly about games. There weren't any about Starworld Chaos since we were in the middle of the last update cycle.
