"..." Elysia sat near the second-floor balcony, watching the sunrise with several thoughts in mind. She woke up early but was in a dilemma because of a message she had just received.
"Want a cup of hot tea?" Evelyn sat next to Elysia with the tea set.
"Mm, thank you." Elysia nodded slightly while stroking the three fluffy ones on her lap.
"Here." Evelyn poured a cup of tea for Elysia and herself. She then glanced at the two foxes and a cat huddled together on her best friend's lap. "They were fast asleep. What are you thinking, Ely? You look troubled. If you like, you can share your thought with me."
"Uhm..." Elysia tapped her smartphone to her chin, then activated the screen. She opened the recent message and showed it to Evelyn. "Eve, Erina asked about how I'm doing. She seemed to know I had returned to this house and said she would come to visit. I advised her to stay at her mansion for a few days, but she responded with this."
