Monarchs Celestia

Part 1: Chapter 3.2(Old)

Morning arrived and before Tina even had the chance to wake me up, my mind was already thinking of stuff. The first thing that came to my mind was whether everything that happened last night was a dream. But then a thought came to my mind that I may have a sister that I don't know about. Lucia or Kye could've had an affair with someone before and made me a sister. Based on her looks she has the potential to be.

Tina always knocks three times at the door before entering. She would usually take care of my clothes and clean up some stuff if I did something before waking me up. But today was different. I woke up early so I changed and cleaned up my bed before Tina even had the chance to do it.

While waiting for Tina to come in, I decided to go to the balcony to get some fresh air. Good thing my room has a balcony because some of the rooms in the manor don't have one. Lucky me. I could've gone to the dining area and eaten breakfast early but I thought that Tina might search the entire manor looking for me. Heh, maybe the day after tomorrow I should do that. Just imagining Tina's reaction is enough to motivate me throughout the day.

As I was getting some oxygen on the balcony, I thought of the girl I met last night. Could everything be a dream? No, It's unlikely because there's no way a dream could be that detailed to someone I haven't met.

A sister? Maybe, In this world, it's quite common to have an affair. But Kye and Lucia don't have the personality to do such a thing. Lucia couldn't have had a kid before me because a mother would usually want her child to be with her. Kye has black hair that has a tint of blonde colour. His eyes are dark and his skin is quite tan. So Kye is out of the picture unless the girl's mother has more dominant genes than him. Which is unlikely because a guy usually has dominant genes. So a sister is out.

Damn, I really wanted a sibling to toy with. I've always wanted a little sister even before being reincarnated. My parents just didn't want to have one which was fine as I got all the attention. But it's just lonely from time to time. Good thing I have Tina to toy with here in the manor. As long as I have her, I won't get bored.

Hm? I heard three knocks on the door. Must be Tina. I closed the glass door that was in between the balcony and my room. That way Tina won't think that I'm on the balcony. I hid my body to the side and peeked through the glass door so I could see what was happening inside my room.

Tina opened the door and started to head to the closet before stopping halfway. Why did she stop? I looked at the closet and realized that I made a mistake. I forgot to close it, not to mention my pyjamas were there indicating that I have already changed. Tina let out a sigh and looked into the bed while she said something. I couldn't hear her as the glass door was closed.

She then went to the side of the bed and started tapping like she was looking for something. 

After a few seconds, she stopped tapping and looked through the glass door. I immediately pull my head backwards so she doesn't see me peeking through. I'm pretty sure she saw me so I just gave up in my heart and waited through. And sure enough, she opened the glass door and looked at me from the side. I let out a smile and said "Good morning Tina"

Tina let out another sigh and by the looks on her face, she didn't look all too surprised.

"I'm not even surprised that you would do something like this Master Andrew. But I'm quite happy that you actually woke up early for once" Tina said.

"Wooooow, I guess you really do have low expectations for me" I answered.

"Based on your previous actions, yes. Anyways there's someone here that Luke would like you to meet." Tina said with a smile.

The audacity to actually say that to your master. Damn, she actually had the backbone to say that. But then again, I was the one that wanted to not have a master and servant type relationship. Sigh, I reap what I sow.

"So who is this I'm supposed to meet?" I asked.

"You'll see. She's waiting by the door. So please wait here in your room. She's quite shy, but I'm sure you two will get along just fine." Tina said as she left through the door.

She? Wait, could it be that...

Tina entered the room with a girl in tow. Long white hair, blue eyes and that cute face. There was no mistaking it. It was the girl from last night.

Tina then went behind her and put both of her hands on the girl's shoulders.

With a smile, Tina said "Master Andrew, I would like you to meet Sistine Walts. She is the daughter of Master Luke's friend and both of them would like the two of you to be friends"What? Why would Luke suddenly want me to be friends with her? Not to mention, I already feel stupid for doing some deductions earlier whether she's a sibling or not. It completely slipped my mind that Luke's friend was here. I blame Maria for giving me more work than usual yesterday. It must be because of mental exhaustion caused by the work that made me forget about that. Anyways, I have to deal with the current situation.

"Oh...uh Nice to properly meet you Sistine. I'm Andrew Kaynes, Luke's gran....." I said before choking on my own saliva. I started coughing while wanting to die at this very moment. I was crying inside and some tears even let out. I started asking why? Why did I have to choke at this very moment? This is so embarrassing. So much for my first impression.

"Are you...*hic....alright Master Andrew?" Tina asked, trying to not laugh. I could see some tears coming out of Tina's eyes as she tried to wipe them out. She was definitely laughing her heart out inside but couldn't show it because Sistine was present. If Sistine wasn't here she would've burst out laughing right now. As a personal maid, she was clearly not concerned about my health. I guess it was because we've spent enough time together to know if it's actually serious or not.

I gave a wave to Tina indicating that I was fine. After I finally stopped choking, I stood up straight and looked down at the floor thinking how nice and clean it was. I lost all my confidence. I try to look up bit by bit but as soon as I saw Sistine's mouth, I stopped. She was smiling. I guess I choked pretty hard huh?

Suddenly, Sistine lifted her right arm indicating that the two of us should shake hands. With a cheerful tone, she said

"Nice to meet you, Andrew. I hope that the two of us can be good friends."

And that's how I first met Sistine Walts.
