Nero burst out laughing as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world. "Are you daydreaming? Do you really want me to kneel down and ask for forgiveness?"
"W-What's so funny? I just said that for your sake; you better do what I said, otherwise-"
She didn't even finish speaking when Nero interrupted, "Else, what? Huh?"
"I... I..." Emily couldn't even think straight when looking into Nero's eyes. She felt as if a wild beast was looking at a helpless lamb, and with any sudden movement, she too would be attacked.
Maia, who was in that time in silence, seeing that things were taking a strange direction, and as much as she wanted Nero to attack Emily and be punished for it, she knew that if she just kept watching, the others could start a fight here that would probably do more harm than good. "Emily, thanks for defending me. I'm fine, I swear. She already apologized to me, so she doesn't need to talk about it anymore. She just mistook me for someone else."
"Okay, Maia, I knew that you have a good heart. It is also better not to waste time with this crazy woman." Emily said with a gentle smile, then looked at Nero venomously and said, "You are lucky our lovely friend Maia is very kind and has decided to forgive you, humph!"
But Maia secretly despised Emily in her heart, thinking, 'My friend? If it weren't because you were once a friend of Choko's, do you think you would deserve to call me a friend?' Outside, Maia was smiling shyly, as if she were happy with Emily's words.
Emily was originally a friend of Choko, but because of an "accident", Emily started to hate Choko and became Maia's "best friend".
Another girl with dark hair and blue eyes said, "Come on Maia and Emily. Don't mix with this riffraff."
"Yes let's go," Emily agreed categorically.
Before leaving, Maia smiled adorably at Choko and said, "Dear sister, I will be waiting for you tonight for Dad's birthday~"
"Okay." Choko just agreed. She wouldn't fall for her sister's tricks again after she found out that all she was doing had been laced with hatred toward herself.
"Bye. See you at the party, little sister." With those words said, Maia left with her friends.
"Choko, sorry for being sincere, but I don't think your sister is a sweet smelling flower," Nero said, "Although she looks adorable, I can say that she is a toxic person full of poison, wanting to harm anyone who gets in her way. And from what little I saw, you're in her way!"
"Yes, I know..." Choko murmured, sadly.
"Ohh... Since you know, I won't say anything else." Nero understood that something must have happened for Choko to show such a sad expression.
Choko forced a smile, and said while pulling Nero's soft, small hand, "Let's continue. Don't let this spoil your mood. After all, today we went out to have fun."
"Yes." Nero agreed and with Choko holding her hand, the two girls strolled through the city.
"Let's go there," Choko said and pulled Nero towards a clothing store.
"Nero, you need to buy clothes." Choko said inside the store, pointing to many beautiful dresses and clothes, "Look, there are many beautiful clothes and now that we have a lot of money, let's buy some, what do you think of that?"
Nero said with a perfect smile, "Mm... Okay, I also think I need to buy clothes. After all, I can't always wear your clothes or my leather outfit."
Choko froze for a few seconds when she saw Nero's beautiful smile, then she said as she picked up a blue one-piece dress, "Exactly. Come, prove it."
"Okay." Nero took the dress and went to the dressing room. But before entering, Nero turned to Choko and timidly said, "Can you help me? It is my first time wearing a dress..."
"Ohh..." Choko was surprised, but soon she replied with a smile, "Yes, I'll come help."
Arriving at the dressing room, Choko's heart was beating very hard. She forced herself to calm down while helping Nero to dress.
"You are wonderful!" Choko said, mesmerized. In Choko's eyes, Nero was the most beautiful girl on the planet. Dressed in a heavenly blue dress and with the pair of wings slightly showing, it made Nero look like an angel who fell from heaven.
Nero smiled softly and said, "Thank you."
"... You need to buy this dress, we will also look at other clothes," Choko said smiling.
After almost an hour of choosing clothes and shoes, Choko finally seemed satisfied.
On the way back to her house, Choko asked, "Nero, do you want to go with me on my dad's birthday?"
"Is it okay if I go?" Nero asked.
"But of course, I would be happy if you did," Choko said immediately.
"Okay, I will." Nero smiled.
After passing through a chapel, the two girls only had to walk a little further until they arrived in front of the gates of the Qin Clan. Entering, Nero noticed that the Qin Clan was busier than usual. Logically, she understood that this was happening due to Choko's father's birthday.
Thinking of Choko's father, Nero recalled that she had not yet seen him, and this would be the first time that she would see him. Not that it would make any difference to her.
Nero decided to narrow the new dress she bought for Choko's father's birthday. Wearing the sky blue dress that showed her beautiful collarbone and a bit of chest, she was very charming, but she wore an overcoat to hide her wings since she didn't want other people to find out and end up having that complicating things for her.
In front of a big mirror, Nero was feeling powerful! But, she thought, 'Even though I have this body, I think the ex-owner of the body was no more than 14 years old, right?'
Nero started to fantasize of what she might look like in a few years. Since she was so beautiful now, if she matured and grew a little more, how beautiful would she be?
