Chapter 185 - Ami (1/2)

The next day came, and Yanee woke up feeling light and refreshed.

That's odd…

It was a bit strange as she usually woke up already high strung. But then again, she remembered what happened the day before and a smile tugged at her lips.

”Ah, look at what we have here— the princess is finally awake,” Ami said at the doorway and Yanee chuckled as she rubbed her eyes. ”You must be so happy to finally becoming legal.”

”Yah!” Yanee jokingly struck her tongue out at her sister.

It was true, though. The reason why she probably had a goodnight's sleep was precisely because she had no more secrets to hide from her parents— not that Tohru was a secret. She just couldn't find the right time to tell their parents about him. Since it was already done, and her parents seemed to be satisfied with Tohru so far, she had less worry..

”What time is it?”

”It's half past nine. You have to step up or we'll be late,” Ami said before leaving her alone.

Knowing her sister's packed schedule for the day, Yanee didn't waste any more time. It was enough that Ami didn't wake her up earlier. Despite her more flexible schedule, Ami knew Yanee stayed up until the wee hours of the morning working on her manuscript, and so, she truly appreciate her elder sister leaving her alone to rest until it's already almost time to go.

The salon was not the far. It was only a ten-minute drive from their apartment. It was one of the popular ones that used all natural ingredients in their products. Also, all the staff were professional and tight-lipped, taking care of their clients' privacy, so she and Ami liked the place so much and became VIPs there.

”So, were mom and dad terrible last night?” Ami asked while they were having massage.

”Of course, not. They just asked a lot of questions, but they were fine in the end,” Yanee answered before turning to her sister with a curious expression. ”By the way, sis, I'm truly wondering why you did not grill Tohru the way mom and dad did.”

After the fiasco in Nagoya, Ami was very protective of her when it came to relationships to the point she scared off her male coworkers who were overly friendly towards her when she first came to Tokyo to work. Among her family, she was expecting Ami to have more reaction. But she did not do anything aside from teasing him when she and Tohru went to the hospital to meet Ami.
