26 Slacker Riggs (1/2)
Seeing Seraphina's behavior, Sebastian Yue was delighted. In the past, the young Seraphina barely made friends due to her peculiar perspective and behavior which made him worried that she won't find her equilibrium in life thus, he always granted her request to explore herself eventhough sometimes they are hard to fulfill.
She assisted Marga all throughout dinner like a mother caring for her child. Everyone was pleased and surprised by her action but they thought that it was probably due to her amnesia. Regardless, she didn't change for the worst as what they expected that made them felt relieved.
Apparently, no one knew that Seraphina was slowly caging them and living with her under the same roof would be the start of their upcoming nightmares.
”Cousin, thank you...” As Seraphina was tucking her to bed, Marga spoke. Her voice cracked as tears started to form at the corner of her eyes.
”You don't have to thank me. Besides, it's good that you'll stay here so we can be... closer.” Seraphina said as she offered her a warm, gentle smile before she hugged her tightly. She caressed the back of her head as she thought she might help her sleep by knocking her out but unfortunately, she wasn't that merciful especially to someone like her.
After a few chit-chats and reminders, she left Marga to sleep. As Seraphina departed, Marga felt unease and her whole body started to shiver. In her life, this was the most terrifying experience she will never forget or she thought.
When Seraphina arrived in her room, she felt energized. She started humming as she went to the shower. Unlike the previous dull, boring designed room —her current room was much colorful like a rainbow. It also had plenty of mirrors everywhere because she was a little vain eversince she was back to her 'goddess self.'
She happily undress herself but was abruptly stopped as she noticed the indelible small Japanese scripture under her left breast. It was read as: Ryū
She smirked as she touch the small tattoo and mumbled, ”stupid.”
Seraphina didn't dwell on it for long and soaked herself in the hot tub full of rose petals.
”Ahh... it feels so good to be alive.” She mumbled before she rested her eyes under the soothing sound of the music.

Seraphina ransacked every boutique inside the luxury mall and at the same time she carefully observed every cctv camera's around the mall and found its blindspot.
