* Illya's Pov *

An image flashes in my head, the thought of what might happen with my sister if we were too late, terrifies me. That's why when I felt no warmth but emptiness when I turn to toss around and hug my big sister, I immediately sat up and panic.
" Emilya-nee?! Emilya-nee!? ", I look everywhere, under the blanket, under the bed, inside the closet, everywhere. I was panicking so much that I wasn't thinking rationally and idiotically search for my sister inside of Luvia's drawers. The sound of double doors opening attract my attention, Emilya-nee walks in casually with a mug of coffee and a glass of milk.
" Oh, you're awake-... what are you doing? ", she asks me with a dumbfounded look shown on her face. I just realize that I have a large size bra on top of my head, probably from when I was throwing everything away to look for my dear sister. Not only that, I still have the bottom part of the closet, where there's a drawer, wide open filled with colorful panties that had become a mess due to me roaming my hand around, once again, to find my dear sister. Also, my hand is still in the drawer, holding up a black lace pantie. I don't know what my expression is showing but it probably looks like a deer caught in the headlight. Emilya-nee just places the glass of milk down on the desk before giving me a smile and walk back out closing the double door.
" ... Ah, wait... ", only when she left I finally came back to my sense and push my face against the bed, crying in embarrassment.

* First Floor Living Room *

That was embarrassing, I wish Emilya-nee will forget that ever had happened. But when I entered the living room, she gave me a smile that just makes me feels like dying in a hole somewhere. We are already in our school uniform, Rin and Luvia-san are still sleeping in the guest room, it is still pretty early I guess.
" Emilya-nee, are you sure you had enough rest? ", I ask concernedly for her health, she responded back with a nod while sipping her coffee. So Emilya-nee drink that bitter stuff huh, she is starting to become more mature than I had previously thought. I peak at the content inside of her mug, it was filled with black liquid. 
' Black Coffee!? Emilya-nee can drink that? ', I look at my glass of milk, maybe I should try my best to drink coffee too, that will make me a step closer to become someone like Emilya-nee, young but more mature than anybody else, well, sometimes. Luvia's butler, Auguste, walk into the room, pushing a food trolley toward our direction.
" Good morning ladies, today breakfast will be my homemade Egg Benedict with salmon along with my own special sauce. I hope it is enjoyable to your taste my ladies ", I can't help but drools at the sight and the smell by itself, Emilya doesn't look unfazed but give the butler a polite bow and a thank you. Auguste places the elegant and fancy looking plates with the Egg Benedict and cutlery onto the table before bowing slightly as he left and push the trolley out of the room. After we finished with breakfast, we cleaned the dishes, despite Auguste's plead to just put the cleaning duty on him and walk out of the mansion. Auguste guide us the way to the gate since him, Luvia, Rin and probably Miyu as well that have the access remote to open the gate. As we left, all of us heard a scream from the distant.
" What in Zelretche's name had happened to my room!? ", I have a feeling that it was Luvia freaking out at seeing the aftermath of my searching spree, which is clothes and underwear everywhere, scattering across the room. I should have cleaned it back up, shouldn't I? I grab my confused big sister and drag her away from the mansion as Auguste hurriedly run back to aid Luvia-san.

* School, In Class *

" That was a disaster ", I can't help but look at our storyboard for our art project. Our assignment was to get into a group and work on drawing a storyboard and express our plot through our arts. My group consists of me, Mimi Katsura, Nanaki Moriyama, Suzuka Kurihara, and troublesome Tatsuko Gakumazawa. Thanks to Tatsuko, our story are all over the place and the drawings are... weird, yes, weird, let us go with that. I think we barely did anything at all, Tatsuko did all of this by herself. I don't know why Fujimura-sensei approve of this, superhero story? More like a horror story that was produced and directed very badly. Meanwhile, I look over to Emilya-nee group which consists of her, Miyu and other students that I don't bother to get to know of. Their storyboard was clean and make sense, though it is at a level way above someone at our age should be able to create. As expected of Miyu and Emilya-nee, actually, I think it was only them who even contributed to the project while the rest of their group just sat and watch in amazement. As usual, Fujimura-sensei tries to tell both of them that elementary students shouldn't be able to create something as masterful as this, which they respond back with one word.
" Huh? ", they both look at Fujimura-sensei in confusion, which only resorts her to give up on something. Shouldn't she be happy that they're doing good? I can't understand her sometimes. A couple of minutes passed as we started presenting our work to the whole class. Let us just say it was obvious on who's the worse and who's the best. At the end of everything, our break time finally arrives and both Emilya and Miyu dragged me away from my group before they could ask me to join them for lunch.
