*(Time on the clock: 2:15:00)*
After all the Math and History… I decided to rest up here and let the two gals swim. They both seem to be having fun splashing each other. I also forgot to mention how good they are when it came to swimming.
"You don't want to join us, Renn?" Angelica asked me. Ari gestured for me to join in.
"No thanks, I'll drown if I take a dip in those waters." I just sat down on a chair at the bar. I have a fear of drowning, so nope.
"Aww… You're no fun… You could get invited to pool parties some day. If you want, I can get you to a swimming school during summer." Angelica's offer is tempting. I began thinking about it. I really wanted to be a great swimmer, just as great as Cherry.
I can already imagine myself chasing Cherry on the beach and catching her since she didn't expect me to swim… Ah, I'd just love a moment like that…
"I wonder how you are going to accommodate me when we just met?" I smirked. It may be too far from my house and I can't drive.
"I'll look for ones near your place, if that's what you want." Well, now that's right up my alley. I'm interested.
"When you put it that way, it sounds like a deal." I accepted the deal.
"You're surprisingly easily tempted, Renn… I wonder what else you're interested in~" Angelica's wondering about my interests along with that tone of hers? Oh god... I'm getting slightly uncomfortable.
"Well, I like strawberries-"
"Hold on… Did you say… STRAWBERRIES?!" She reacted when I said something along the lines of: "strawberries".
"Yes, strawberries. Why?" I asked and she excitedly at the edge near to me.
"I like strawberries too." She said that with eyes full of energy.
She also liked strawberries huh? Perhaps we DO have something in common after all.
"What food is best combined with strawberries, in your opinion?" I asked her.
"The parfaits! Oh my gosh, have you tried one?! It's literally creamy and just… MELTS in your mouth when you get a spoonful of it!" She was squealing, talking about strawberry parfaits.
"Never tried it. But I know it's good. The best I have tried so far is strawberry crepe. The strawberries in my partner's crepe are just godly… I wish I could try it again…" I can't help but happily think about that fateful day… The best day of my life… Because Jessie made such a perfect crepe that I don't want to order from crepe stalls ever again…
"Partner? Why do you call her partner?" She asked.
"Well, it's not that hard to understand… She's my partner, and I'm not leaving her side." I answered.
"Wow… I didn't know you had a girlfriend… Is she okay knowing that you tutored another girl?" I wondered if that question is even worth asking... I mean, I tutored Syrra, and so far she didn't mind as long as I took her out on a date or hung out with her more often in school. We're both fine as it is.
"She's okay with it, I've already been a tutor for months and a temporary teacher for a day. We'll be alright." I began thinking about our next date... Probably by the next time she's free, I'll take her out to the beach! It'll be wonderful…
"You're such a gentleman…" Angelica and Ari got off the pool to dry themselves.
"Are you both done with the pool?" I asked.
"We'll just shower for a bit then change to our fresh clothes!" They head in the shower room and I stayed here STILL playing the waiting game.
"I hope everyone's doing fine…" I looked at the night sky. I don't want them to worry too much. Jessie and Syrra doing their best to get a scholarship, Vance with his training coming up, and I…
I'm out here just tutoring. And soon I'll be taking charge of the house for Vance. I also began thinking about what career I should choose for my future… Teacher is going to be the second choice, automatically. The first choice will be…
Ah… The medical field. That's a good one. Helping others in need. It's perfect.
I'll have to really think hard about what to do for my senior years and college years... I'm already excited just thinking about it.
I looked back at the showers and noticed they were taking their sweet time.
I sure hope they don't take too much time…

We went to the hotel room to finally cover the rest of the subjects.
"You girls had your fun, now we're going to get serious." I grabbed the rest of the books.
"I was gonna ask for one more hour, but I don't want to stay in the water for too long." I looked at her with a grumpy look. So she WAS planning to swim there the whole time.
"I am sensing double standards from you." I then smirked.
"Hey, at least I studied before you let me swim!" Ari nodded with Angelica, agreeing that she had a point.
"Well, now is the time we finish what we started." I opened the Science book, but I was getting thirsty as my throat felt dry.
"I'm parched… I need a glass of water…" Ari stood up and poured a glass of water for me.
"Thanks, Ari." I drank all of the water in the glass. I seriously needed it.
"Now then, Mr. Alrose… Let's begin the tutor?" She wanted to begin.
"Of course, let's begin with Sci-"
Wait a minute… I was stunned. Did she just call me Mr. Alrose?
"What did you call me?" I asked her for confirmation.
"I called you Mr. Alrose. Am I wrong?" I wasn't hallucinating. I didn't even tell her last name yet she knew it.
"Ari must have… Told you…" What's going on… Why am I feeling sleepy?
"What's wrong? Losing energy to tutor? What a shame~" I tried to stay up but I collapsed on the floor. I've been drugged…
"You…" It didn't take long before I finally dozed off due to that drug…
Angelica…
Why…
— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — ??? — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — —
I finally have him in my grasp. To make sure, I moved him a little bit to ensure the drug really did take effect on him.
"Mr. Alrose?~" Not even a single movement nor sound is made.
What a relief… I can finally take a break! Pretending to be idolizing him, wanting him to tutor me, prying all about his life is exhausting! I really wish I hadn't done this but he left me no choice!
"My lady, shall we take care of our guest?" Cassandra stood up. It's time.
"Yes. We shall take care of him like how he took care of us…" We both looked at Renn Alrose, grinning.
We started stripping off our clothes… This is going to be fun~
"Let's see what your little friends will think of you now…"

*(Time on the clock: 1:30:00)*
Seeing Renn this late makes me worry… I wonder if he is doing okay.
"Brother, he'll be fine. He's just tutoring like you told me." I look at Cherry.
"Look, I know Renn by heart. He's not a weak-minded person like everyone would think. He excels in academics!" Cherry confidently shared her point.
"I'm just reminding myself of the news I saw in the past… I just don't want Renn to be part of that media." My worries kept increasing gradually as I repeatedly tap my foot on the floor. My nightmare just can't come true, no matter what. A student was already found dead, I can't lose him… I'll never hear the end of it if it does…
"You have every right to be scared, but lingering on that worry so much will just give you a headache. Why don't you cook dinner tonight to ease your mind from everything?" She's right. Worrying too much will just get me nowhere.
I decided to cook dinner. Syrra took care of the rice. The chicken cordon bleu I bought from the vendor who went to our house yesterday felt perfect for tonight. I put the tinfoil-wrapped cordon bleu in the air fryer my dad recently gifted me, and waited. Eventually, it was done and I unwrapped the whole thing on the plate.
"Can I slice it?!" Her eyes lit up as she wanted to slice it.
"Sure." She took the knife and began slicing the cordon bleu into… Well, slices. I taught her how to slice beef once, she's gotten the hang of it ever since.
"Yey! Let's eat!" As the rice was ready, we ate dinner together. It was delicious! I never thought I'd be enjoying this!
"This is so yummy! Let's have this again!" She also enjoyed it.
"Maybe next time when the vendor comes back, she said that it's a special of hers and she'd only sell it on this specific day, you know." Her business must have boomed with that.
"Okay! Renn would love this!" Hearing Cherry say Renn made me look at my food in thought.
"Yeah." I looked out the window and watched the stars twinkle. Renn is taking his time tutoring… I wonder how his progress is, I hope I get to hear from him when he comes back.
I continued eating and just finished my food. As we were both done, I stored the leftovers in the fridge and did the dishes.
"I'll be sleeping now… I need to be extra early to school tomorrow." Cherry quickly went upstairs.
"Alright, I'll just stay here!" I stayed downstairs at the dinner table, waiting for him.
I'll be waiting for him to come back…

*(Time on the clock: 0:45:00)*
We wore hoodies and are now slowly carrying the body of Renn Alrose back to his house undetected to anyone. Cassandra has stalked him to the point that she knows where he lives. This is going smoothly.
"My lady, I appreciate the plan went smoothly. He's not going to recover when he wakes up and goes to school tomorrow." He sure won't. After all that we worked hard for, it's going to be one hell of a victory for us!
"It's going to be all over the news! Oh, I'm finally going to get my spotlight back after all of this…" I'm confident that I'm going to get ALL the men in my school to be my slaves again! And as much as I'd like to include Alrose in there…
Hmm… Sorry, but not my type~
"And… My lady… I'm slightly embarrassed at how I am going to act tomorrow." Oh? It's rare that she showed her embarrassed side today.
"You'll be fine, just convince everyone and that red look on your face will be naturally on display to everyone INCLUDING Alrose." She's a maid, student, and a master manipulator. She can definitely manipulate everyone to believe that Alrose did it, and he will face his doom!
Ah~ It makes me want to laugh…
But I can't because I don't want to be seen.
"How much further?" I asked Cassandra and she looked around.
"The familiar signpost at the corner of the sidewalk. We are almost there." All I'm feeling right now is pure ecstasy seeing how close we are to delivering our "gift".
"Good~ But I do fear someone might be in the house." For all I know, he could be living with someone else.
"Don't worry, my lady. I am prepared for that." After a little more dragging, we arrived at the house.
So this is the Alrose residence… It looks pretty plain, as expected from a plain guy like him. At the window, we noticed a man. We hid and slowly put the sleeping Renn Alrose aside. Cassandra started her act and slowly went to the front door undetected and knocked.
"Hello?" Ooooh, he sounds fine~ He can TOTALLY work for me in the future~ Hehe...~
Wait, no… What am I doing? Why did I almost fall in love with him? Damn... My face is red now...
I slowly peeked and noticed he didn't stand up and was only looking at the door. Cassandra gestured if she should knock again and I gave her the go signal and knocked again.
"Who the hell…" The man walked straight to the door, annoyed. But he didn't open it.
I gestured to Cassandra one more time to knock while he wasn't noticing me. She knocked one last time.
"Alright… Who-" The man went outside and took a look around, noticing no one…
This is your chance! Knock him out, Cassandra!
"Door ditching mania-" And she did. A single chop to the neck knocked the man out cold. Cassandra dragged him inside. I dragged Alrose inside.
"The left one is Alrose's room." Cassandra whispered and I nodded, proceeding to slowly carry him to his room without making a sound. I acted like a mother for this one time and tucked him into bed.
"Goodnight, Alrose~" I waved my fingers goodbye to him as weslowly left the house. Cassandra followed and locked the door before closing it as we quickly moved back to the hotel.
This went ALL ACCORDING TO PLAN. GOD, I'M SO EXCITED TO SEE HIS FACE WHEN HE WAKES UP TOMORROW!
Renn Alrose is history, and I will rule the world! And with one simple post, this will be all over social media… All over the news… TO MAKE SURE THAT HE IS GONE FOR GOOD!
"I CAN FINALLY LAUGH! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
