I woke up again, this time in the early morning when normal people tend to wake up. After stretching my body a bit, I noticed the bag, which was supposed to be in the corner, was gone.

(Sis must have took it.)

Thinking that I went to check up on Trichia in my room. She wasn't there but instead my room was all tidy.

(Heh. So Yuko did enter some maid functions in her.)

The bed was perfectly made. The books lying around until yesterday night were now all beautifully arranged in the shelf. There wasn't a speck of dirt and the room even had a refreshing fragrance to it.

I went downstairs to the dining room after washing my face. Trichia and sister were already sitting there next to each other with food on their plates and mom still in the kitchen. Trichia was already out of her maid outfit and wearing our school uniform. Must have been my sister's doing.

"Good morning"

"Good morning"

"Good morning"

We greeted each other and I sat down opposite to Trichia who was eating her breakfast with perfect manners. While mom got my breakfast ready, I checked my phone. Huh, you're wondering how Trichia is eating too? Oh c'mon, after knowing what all Yuko can do, is this really all that surprising?

(Oh, speak of the devil. I have a mail from him.)

I opened the mail and it read-

"I asked Maria to clean your room as a thanks for helping me. Also, I confiscated anything that seemed 'hazardous' to Trichia's learning."

(Oh, so it was Maria who cleaned my room, and not Trichia. But what does he mean by "hazardous"?)

"Oh. No."

I just realised something and dashed straight to my room.

"What happened, Rota?"

I could hear my sister's concerned voice but I couldn't care less at the moment.

(Please don't let it be that! Please don't let it be that!)

I kept repeating that as I ran up the stairs, and as I entered my room, I quickly pulled forward my shelf and stuck my hand in to look for the 'package'.

(Its still here.)

"Thank god!"

I could feel my breathing slowly calming down.

(but then what else could Yuko be talking about?)

I had a feeling of foreboding, so just to be sure, I checked inside the 'package'.

".......sniff......."

Tears started coming of my eyes. He took it! He took everything! My R+ prized collection!

"Yuko, YOU BASTARD!!!!!!"
