As night fell, Sky lay on his mattress, preparing for sleep. A new message from Isha pinged his phone, urging him to meet her tomorrow to confront the monster. Her message playfully justified her insistence: "I can't let my junior go there alone, you saved my life; I need to repay you. So I would also go to dangerous places with you to show I'm not a selfish girl." She even inquired, "If he can make it safe and sound, your sister didn't make chaos, right?"
Sky smirked at her messages before replying, "No, she didn't, but I'm not taking you with me. It's too risky to get you out of your room, take you there, and return; it's too much bother. Plus, I know you're a good girl; you don't need to prove anything." He then closed his messaging app, opening the news app to check global activities. His sister had indeed questioned him, asking about his "female friend," if he had photos of her, and much more, yet she remained remarkably calm, a composure that puzzled Sky. He didn't dwell on it, however, as he scrolled through his phone, seeking any unusual news.
While Sky browsed, Sillia was also on her phone, her eyes frequently darting towards him in the dim, pre-sleep darkness.
I truly can't believe Sky actually slept with a girl. I honestly didn't expect it. He probably still thinks I don't know or noticed, but I do, brother. But seriously, at one point, I thought he didn't have a girlfriend, but I guess I was wrong. Although I'm not sure about him having a girlfriend or not, I'm certain he lied so perfectly that I believed him—that it was really that girl, whom I've never met, who pranked me. But then I realized he lied when I found out he told me Mom called me to change his clothes. In reality, Mother told me she hadn't called me and just said to tell Sky to eat. But when I returned, his white shirt had already been replaced with other clothes, Sillia recounted in her mind.
It's not that surprising that he had sex with some girl, since he's old enough to do so. I wouldn't be surprised if he's had a few experiences with other girls besides his 'girlfriend.' After all, I've seen his vigorous 'weapon' standing tall a few times. But I hate the fact that he cheated on his girlfriend. Wait, why am I even feeling bad for someone I've never even seen? I guess the 'girlfriend' he used to talk about is none other than these girls he sleeps with, Sillia continued, staring at Sky, who was still on his phone.
I wouldn't be surprised if I found out he's a playboy in disguise. But I hate this feeling of betrayal. I don't like it. I always saw him as such a good person, but today he mistakenly revealed his secret of being a playboy. Hehe… I wonder what his reaction will be when he knows I'm aware of his secret desires, Sillia thought, a mischievous glint in her eyes. She even decided to share this newfound secret with her best friend in their old town tomorrow. She truly wanted to tell her friend.
Hmph, playboy Sky. I should have expected you to be this kind of guy behind that mask. After all, you're just too good, too good to be real. I hate you, but sadly, you're my big brother. I can't beat you to teach you loyalty. But now I understand how he's so satisfied and calm in slightly erotic situations. He's already done everything with a girl. Hmph, I hate knowing this. I guess it's better for some things to remain hidden. Although I used to think he was the most pure and good guy to ever exist, no, he isn't. There are more things hidden behind his calm face, Sillia mused, a small smile growing on her lips as she now possessed a secret about her brother. This made her even more interested in the deeper, hidden aspects of his personal life.
Sillia continued to ponder many things about Sky, even fabricating elaborate scenarios in her imagination. Her night passed in restless overthinking, her face flushing with embarrassment and shyness many times. Meanwhile, Sky had already fallen asleep, oblivious to his little sister's nocturnal discoveries.
The night passed, and morning arrived. Sky woke at his usual time, finding Sillia still asleep. He quickly got ready, having already decided to meet Kuin in the mountains. Time flew by, and Sky was prepared to leave. He took his phone and was about to head out when Sillia's voice reached his ear.
"Where are you going this early? To meet that female friend of yours?" Sillia asked, an unusual, teasing smile gracing her lips.
"No, I have something to do; that's why I'm leaving," Sky replied calmly, without divulging his true purpose.
"Yeah. Of course, I can see the 'thing' you'll do with her. Anyway, enjoy," Sillia said with a giggle, winking at him before returning her gaze to her phone, seemingly avoiding any further eye contact. Sky found her behavior a little unusual, but he just smiled bitterly before leaving. He didn't want to engage in further conversation. It wasn't surprising for Sky to witness her unusual behavior after what she "knew" yesterday; he expected her to continue teasing him for a few days. Sky accepted his fate in defeat before refocusing on the matter at hand. Meanwhile, Sillia was inwardly laughing and talking to herself.
Look at this girl's boldness, directly calling him to her room to give herself to him. Hmph…I don't understand what magic did he did on her to be so obsessed with him and call him like that. Sillia thought, gazing at the photo of Sky's messages with Isha. Yes, in the dead of night, she had opened his phone and meticulously scrutinized every detail, and naturally, she hadn't been disappointed.
After seeing those messages from Isha, Sillia's suspicion got confirmed of Sky lying to her but it also made her more interested in his personal hidden life, she was in confusion if she should tell all this to her friend or just keep investigating secretly.
