“I’m back, did you miss me, sister?” Crystal placed her hands on her hips upon entering a room where she is sure that her sweet little sister was.
The younger female gripped on her pen as she seemed to be busy writing, or rather, sketching some designs since she’s from a fashion-oriented family?
“Actually, I would really love it if you would learn how to knock before barging in like some kind of barbarian. Has mother taught you nothing? Or is it that you’re too arrogant for being chosen to care about common basic etiquette?” she questioned, clicking her tongue in annoyance.
Crystal didn’t seem to care as she walked towards her.

“You must be amazed, are you?” Crystal tensed as a voice spoke from behind, upon turning, it was none other than her partner who disguised as a noble. A scoff escaped her lips as she crossed her arms. “What are YOU doing here?” Crystal questioned, emphasizing the ‘you’ while pointing an accusation finger over his chest. A slight chuckle escaped his lips as he placed one hand over his firm hip and brushed his combed hair with his fingers. “Well, it’s your first time in a social occasion, who knows if you unknowingly fall into some kind of schemes set up by rivals?” Cristopher said, earning a roll from Crystal’s e
Suddenly, a ruckus was occurring by one side of the banquet hall, people would take a few steps back, afraid of being involved. Crystal raised a brow and strides her way towards the forming circle around the ruckus, trying to get a view of what was happening. “Get away from me!” A man yelled, prying the woman away who clung onto his chest, trying to get head-to-head with the woman. “Kiss me!” The woman yelled as she clung onto a man, her eyes could’ve been seen with the expression of infatuation and love. The corners of her lips were drooling as her lovesick expression caused the explosion of gossiping nobles. Disgust was the only expression

Cristopher slowly picked up a small file by the desk after some time, opening it to gaze after the blocks of words before glancing over at his companion. “For the record, Carmilla has a pure image of pure innocence. I doubt that people will suspect you for that.” he mentioned, in an attempt to lighten the mood yet the woman just looks at him in wonder. “That reminds me, who is Carmilla to you?” Crystal questioned, her eyes sparkled with expectation which caught Cristopher by surprise. “Carmilla? What do you mean?” he questioned back, gazing over to the left side of the ground in slight hesitation. “You seem to know an awful lot about
After a few moments of following the group, Crystal wanders around the area but still within the group. She somehow spots Angelica on the second floor’s railings, following along on another floor yet what she seems to be suspicious of, is why Angelica seems to eerily eye her specifically. Perhaps, she must’ve noticed Crystal’s odd behavior or maybe it has something to do with the banquet before? Regardless, she shook her head and didn’t mind it anymore. The more she minds it, the more it would make it too obvious that she has been bothered by it. For a prolonged period of time, they were led to another room which was very large, around
They were then led to the dining hall for lunch, and it seems that it was another test of theirs. Crystal has never seen so many kinds, shapes and sizes of different tableware in her entire life just by looking over the well-prepared table. Perhaps, the rich are fond of wasting soap and water for these numerous pieces of metal where not all would even be used. “Enjoy.” the maid spoke as she turned to leave, servants carrying dishes in each hand waltzed in the dining area where the girls are finally seated on their spot comfortably. Crystal could only think about how this might be another test of elegance knowing that not everything is as simple as they appear to be. &nbs
A series of subsequent gasps were what they heard as the concerned females whispered amongst each other. "He’s not kicking us out, is he?" Hannah whispered nervously. "Look what you’ve done. That handsome hunk should’ve been mine if it weren’t for you!" the maiden that Hannah was arguing with, retorted in disgust. "Me? Wasn’t it YOU who started this mess?" Hannah replied, angrily in return, though in a whisper. "Be quiet, he’s looking at us! Have some dignity!" another maiden in blue scolded the other two in a low tone.
This time, Crystal adverted her gaze, squinting her eyes shut as the man continued to slowly eliminate the remaining space between them. She was nervous, afraid, and the way that he seemed to be taking his sweet, leisure time was making it worse. “Are you… not?” Crystal managed to utter out after she finally controlled her thoughts. Her eyes remained shut, as she could feel how only have an inch was the remaining space left between them. ‘Oh god, is he going to kiss me? Will my first kiss really go to this man? Should I push him away? What am I supposed to do?!’ she
