Samantha felt like her brain had ground to a halt. Just a moment ago she was still trying to tease her little sister so she could continue acting cute, and a moment later, she was being showered with kisses on her cheek while sweet, poisonous whispers brushed against her ears.

"Sam is the coolest sister in the world~ How could I really bear not talking to you? Won't you forgive me, Sam? Even though I love you so much?"

Almost every murmur from Emilia's lips was separated with a tender kiss on her earlobe, cheek, or nape.

Sam's face had long since bloomed into a bright shade of red. Even when she had been just a toddler, her little sister had never shown her this much affection.

Samantha couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed. "S-Stop, Emilia, wait, I-I think I need to pee!"

And Emilia really did stop, more in shock than anything else, as she stared at her sister in confusion momentarily before she finally seemed to realize it. 'Right! I almost forgot about such things!'

She could only allow her sister to get up and rush towards the bathroom as Cynthia scoffed in her mind.

Emilia tilted her head in confusion. 'What's wrong?'

Her partner's voice was full of both derision and teasing. "That was obviously an excuse! How could you fall for it, Emilia? Disappointing~!"

Emilia blinked. 'An excuse? She didn't need to pee?'

Cynthia nodded. "To me, it looked like she panicked because you came on too strong."

Emilia's expression went dark. 'Huh… she dared to lie to me…'

Her partner suddenly had a bad premonition. 'Maybe I should have just kept quiet…'

Like an arrow that had already been shot from a bow, she couldn't just take her words back, could she? So Cynthia could only try to appeal to Emilia's 'reasonable' side in an effort to 'lower the damage'. "D-Don't do anything silly, Emilia, don't you still have a favor to ask from her?"

Emilia smiled. 'Don't worry, I'll just give her a little 'shock therapy' later. Once I've already got that favor, of course.'

Her partner couldn't help but give her a thumbs up in her mind, looking forward to her 'shock therapy'. As long as it didn't affect her plans, it should be fine. After all, can that siscon even hold a grudge? "As expected of my villainess!"

Samantha seemed to have calmed herself down considerably by the time she returned a few minutes later, and even when Emilia greeted her with a tight hug, she just smiled and patted her back calmly.

Emilia didn't seem to care about it too much, and just gave her sister a doe-eyed look. "Sam~ Can you ask your secretary to do something for me again?"

The older girl smiled. "Don't you have her number?"

The shorter girl looked adorably precious in Samantha's eyes as she glared at her with her bottom lip jutting out petulantly. "So? Won't you do it for me?"

Samantha shook her head in amusement. "Can I really say 'no' when my adorable sister asks for something? Just tell me what you need."

Emilia's eyes shone as she grinned widely. "I want Noelle to help me get video proof that Amos met those two bullies! We're also one of the shareholders for that hospital, right? It shouldn't be hard!"

Samantha couldn't help but give her a strange look, wondering just what her little sister was planning. "Why? You know it won't mean anything, really, he could just say he was concerned for their health so he came to visit?"

Emilia obviously didn't care to reason with her, and just fluttered her eyelashes, moving her face closer. "You won't do it?"

Samantha turned her head away, her heart hammering wildly in her chest as all her earlier self-motivation seemed futile in the face of her sister's cuteness. "I-I'll do it, b-but, let me go now, okay, I-I think I need to pee again!"

Thankfully, her innocent little sister didn't seem to find it suspicious, and indeed let her go with a smile.

Cynthia's mind was running wild with expectations as it became apparent that the 'moment' had come. 'Ohhh… What will it be? A slap to the face? A twisting of the ears? Another threat?! Ahhh, this excitement is too much!'

"Then, goodnight, Sam…"

Before she could really feel any relief though, Samantha felt like something had exploded in her mind. Before leaving, Emilia had gently but firmly pressed her soft lips against the her own.

'T-That did NOT just happen!'

While the older girl was still reeling in shock, Emilia had long since skipped away, giggling from time to time.

Cynthia couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Seriously, Emilia, you should stop doing that kind of thing too much."

Emilia smiled, not taking her words seriously at all as she returned to her room and crashed on the bed. "And why should I?"

Her partner sighed. "Because what is she going to do once her real sister comes back? You're gonna leave her broken hearted, because Danielle definitely doesn't like her sister so much. She'll probably remain aloof, and I don't know if that girl can take it."

Although Emilia was still smiling, there was something about it that didn't seem quite right. "You care about her so much now?"

Cynthia hesitated for a moment, wondering if it will touch one of Emilia's nerves, but figured that it should be fine. "Not me, no, but you clearly do."

Emilia was silent for a while as she mulled it over before nodding. "Alright, I understand what you're thinking, but you don't need to worry, I have it under control."

Her partner frowned as she seemed to realize something. "What's this, do you have something planned that you haven't told me about?"

Emilia smiled. "Don't we talk all the time? I think you can figure out most of my plans without me needing to tell you."

Cynthia rolled her eyes. "Huh? That's not a good excuse at all! I can't read your mind anymore after you got this body, you know. Tell me!"

Emilia smirked. "Are you asking for a favor?"

Her system seemed stunned, not realizing what she was talking about at all. "What?"

Emilia waved her hand, eyes twinkling mischievously. "Ahem, well, I'm just saying… didn't you see what your attitude should be like when asking for a favor?"

Cynthia rolled her eyes as she recalled how her partner had acted while trying to get things her way. Did Emilia think she was that brazen as well? She can keep dreaming. "You want me to act so coquettishly? I'm not that shameless!"

Emilia stuck out her tongue, still not intending to give up. "How about just a kiss then, and I'll tell you? Of course, it has to be a proper one."

The emerald eyed girl couldn't help but be exasperated. Why can't her villainess be a little more serious? "I thought you said you won't waste the summoning time anymore?"

Emilia nodded. "True, but this is not a waste, it's to soothe my soul."

Cynthia rolled her eyes. "Hmph, forget about it! I don't care anyway."

Emilia could only let her be as she shrugged, muttering 'your loss' under her breath, but didn't receive any response.

As she closed her eyes, seemingly unaffected, only she knew how lonely she was in her heart.
