(EP-163.2) Night #4

163 – Day and Night #4

As we were talking about this and that, time had quietly passed midnight and it was approaching three in the morning.

It was the early hours of a weekday.

Given the extensive tasks I had to complete the following morning, staying awake and engaging with someone until such a late hour did feel somewhat burdensome.

I’d be exhausted all day.

Should I skip my morning run for the day? No, Elga would make a fuss.

As I was expecting a difficult day ahead of me, a refreshed Narmi said to me on the promenade overlooking the dormitory.

“Thank you for today, Theo. I came to you out of the blue and started chatting about everything. Hopefully I wasn’t too much of a nuisance. Heu-.”

Heu- She playfully stuck out her tongue, like a teenage girl trying to make amends for a mistake with aegyo. Her face was quite flushed, probably from the alcohol.

Maemmaem-.

Jeujeujeu-.

Buzzing summer insects echoed all around us.

Narmi then added.

“I’m a bit embarrassed to say this, but I don’t actually have any friends. I didn’t have anyone to talk to like this late at night, so I apologize if I acted a bit childish towards you, Theo.”

Narmi probably wasn’t lying. Not many people knew about her existence and very few people could be her friends considering that humans generally moved during the day and slept at night.

Compared to Mirna, who grew up surrounded by many as the Young Lady of the Draco Family, Narmi felt like a loner.

However, didn’t Mirna say the opposite? That people liked Narmi more than her?

… Argh, I didn’t know. The relationship between these sisters was too complicated!

I escorted her to the front of her room.

Now, all she had to do was open the door and go inside, but for some reason, Narmi hesitated to enter.

“Once I go in, by the time I wake up again, the sun will have set. I won’t see the faces of the people walking around in the morning, nor will I see the fields and flowers shining under the summer sun….”

Narmi looked sad.

Her emotions were being brought out by the alcohol.

“… I want to see the clouds floating in the blue sky. I want to try the ice cream they sell in the hot summer sun. I want to visit the bustling 5-day marketplace above ground, and not a hidden, underground one.”

Narmi sighed softly as she expressed her desires with a tinge of regret. While she didn’t explicitly show it, there seemed to be shadows lurking within her, despite her usual cheerful and bright demeanor.

Perhaps these desires and unfulfilled wishes were what led Narmi to become a villain. Considering Narmi’s mental state, it might be a good idea to offer some comforting words.

“Then let’s go out again sometime.”

“During the day?”

“If that’s what Narmi-nim wishes. Can’t you come out during the day?”

“But my sister and I have rules-.”

Narmi was about to say something but then decided to keep quiet.

Then she cheerfully exclaimed, “Yeah, I’ll do things I want to do too!” Seeing her like that, I felt like laughing.

Having found some courage, Narmi entered her room and closed the door behind her, leaving only her face poking out.

“Thank you for today, Theo.”

“I also learned a lot of new things thanks to you.”

“Why are you so nice to me?”

“Well, that’s….”

I hesitated, searching for a good answer.

“Ngh, Theo, let’s meet again sometime. Let’s keep what happened today a secret, okay?”

“Okay.”

And that marked the end of our conversation.

After returning to my dorm and quickly falling asleep, I headed for my morning run with a tired body. Unexpectedly, I heard something unusual from Elga, who was supervising me.

“Hey, did anything happen with Mirna yesterday?”

“Mirna-nim? Not really…. Is something the matter?”

“No, I just noticed she’s causing a ruckus in her room—”

Causing a ruckus?

Elga’s words made my heart race.

So, after finishing my run, I hurriedly headed to Mirna and Narmi’s dormitory. From which I heard a commotion, like something being vigorously smashed from inside the room.

This was definitely a sign that something was up…

“Mirna-nim, are you okay? Excuse me for a moment.”

Then, regardless if I was being rude, I opened the door. Luckily, it wasn’t locked. But what mattered most was the state of the room that lay beyond.

“… Lady Mirna?”

It was a fancy dormitory befitting the Young Lady of the Draco Family.

However, right now, the spacious room was sprawled with shards of glass. The sight of my own face reflected in the broken glass on the floor was disconcerting.

The shattered pieces were from the windows and mirrors.

And seeing the blood dripping from Mirna’s hand, she clearly smashed them with the back of her hand and fist.

“Iyaa, what happened here?”

Elga, who followed me, entered the room and clicked her tongue at the sight.

“It’s like a battlefield.”

“You two, who gave you permission to barge in as you please!?”

Mirna turned to me with an unusually chilly tone in her voice.
