── ˙ ̟ " THE CAUSE OF A SIGHTING OF A BRIGHT BEAM THROUGHOUT MUSUTAFU THREE DAYS AGO WERE STILL UNKNOWN. ACCORDING TO DETECTIVE TSUKAUCHI, HE SAI— "

The tv was switched off before the reporter could even finish her sentence. The woman set the remote down on the side table next to the couch she's sitting on, rubbing the tension off of her temples. She lets out a sigh as she snapped her fingers. A man in black and white suit came forward to her, pouring the woman a glass of wine. The woman dismissed the man with a single hum before taking a sip of the wine.

As her she stared deep into the glass pane of the penthouse she's staying in, the phone that was on her lap rung. On the screen, displayed the contact name of one of her familiars,

" Hoshi Ume "

She stared at the phone screen for a while before answering it with a single swipe, sipping the wine,

" Rare of you to call me at this time, what's the matter my girl? "

" Told you not to call me that. Whatever, did you see the news? "

The woman only smirked at the fussiness coming from the woman, yet she continued their conversation,

" Yeah, that little girl really bit the bullet huh? She's all grown now, worldwide too. " 

Despite talking through a phone call, the smugness of the woman can be sensed rather sheerly by Ume. She clicked her tongue by the woman's antic and continued on, 

" Regarding that, you know what's the time right? "

" Hm? Do you meant by UA Sport Fest? What's wrong? Don't tell me.."

" Yes, train her. I can't bear seeing herself pushing herself too far. The accident was a nightmare. "

Silence was filled between the women. As Ume waited for the answer from the woman, [REDACTED] felt a slight hesitation in agreeing so. But, this could also be an opportunity for her to polish that girl. With enough decision, she came to a final conclusion, 

"I'll be there; get my place ready," she uttered, hanging up after, not allowing the woman on the other line to add anything else on.

She threw her phone on the table, a loud thud from the titanium made device met with the table echoed throughout the gloomy place. The woman once again stared deep at the wide glass panel, showcasing the sky's high view of the city below. Yellow lights made the view lively, calming her down. A heavy sigh left her lips as she shifted her eyes to the opened laptop on the coffee table. What was displayed on it was a home screen of the device is a picture of the woman with that girl during one of her visits to LA was set as the wallpaper of the laptop. Seeing it alone, made a gentle smile formed on her lips.
