ARIA HAD ALWAYS HATED how easy it was for some people in society to get everything they ever wanted. For example, take Mielle Roscente, even though Mielle had done nothing, she had gotten everything she ever wanted. Everyone in the manor was under her order, she was also the daughter of the richest man, Count Roscente, she could buy everything she wanted, people had always looked up to her, etc without having done anything except by being born.

Meanwhile, Aria, had nothing to begin with. No wealth, no father-figure that would protect her from the harshness of the world, fake maids that were there to torment and influence her. Everything Aria ever wanted was by her hard work. Her careful planning.

Yet... yet... everything was so difficult.

Aria once believed that the Gods had never once looked at anyone but the Nobles. They were the chosen-ones, and the rest were dregs, parasites... like her mother and herself who had nothing to depend on but the... Count.

How... ridiculous! The notion of nobility..! Aria wanted to destroy the Count-dom and destroy this family... all of the nobles..!

"My lady Aria-! A reply from Lord Oscar Frederick is here!" Jessie said at last. Aria turned around in joy when she heard that a letter from Oscar Frederick was here. Finally-! The only way it could possibly tempt Mielle...

Aria knew very well of how much Mielle Roscente had crushed over Oscar Frederick in her past life. But this time... would Mielle really now show her true colors? Aria snickered, but continued on with her task.

She read the letter back from Oscar, but to her surprise, it was a very bland response to what she had written to him first... Was this a rejection?! No... it can't be-! Oscar... Oscar...

Aria calmed herself down, realizing that she was a bit impatient. Yes, how could Oscar Frederick be such a easy man to influence? Or otherwise, he would fallen for her charms in her previous life.

That's okay. The situation isn't too bad. Aria started to write back a letter. Then after she finished, she turned the hourglass over next to her.

Suddenly-!

"My lady Aria-! A reply from Lord Oscar Frederick is here!" Jessie's voice echoed all over her ears.

WHAT?

Aria couldn't help but blink all at once. She rubbed her eyelids as she recieved the letter from Jessie's hands and opened up the seal from the Frederick house. Was she dreaming? Or...

Aria once again read over the contents of the letter... No... it's exactly how she predicted the response would be. Dry, and unressolved. But how? Aria shook her head and decided to move on with her plan to seduce Oscar.

Ah... the terror on Mielle's face. Aria laughed inside her head as she wrote a candid and heartfelt response back to Oscar's dry message. Fufuf... how would you reject such an offer?

After sealing her response back, Aria gave the letter back to Jessie. Yawning back, and unconsciously, Aria once again turned over the hourglass by the desk.

And before she knew it-!

Pop! The Door opened once more to reveal...

"My lady Aria-! A reply from Lord Oscar Frederick is here!" Jessie's voice echoed all over her ears.

HUH?!

SOMETHING WASN'T RIGHT. Time was... or seemed to repeating itself. She couldn't have dreamed twice. Or experienced... a dream within a dream. How absurd, she laughed to herself. What is this?
