Chapter 2: In her prime
"Bro, why we are doing this in the morning? It's more save if night, isn't it?" She asked as she crawled down.
"It's fine even now. The opposite building is taller than that building, so the chances of anyone spotting you on all fours, right now, is relatively low. The only way other people can see you is from the small alley below you, of course Sian has secured it" Lee explained as he checked the monitor in front of him to make sure there was nothing amiss in the vicinity.
"But it's too hot! I am sweating profusely now." she continued to complain miserably, "I have a date tonight."
"With whom?!"
Asked the trio in unison.
"Mentalist."
"What mentalist? Physician?" Asked Sian, a busybody that he was.
"He's practicing hypnotist."
"Huh? Your tastes are getting weirder. Aren't you afraid that he would hypnotize you?"
"Nope, but I'm looking forward to it!" She said coquettishly as she tucked her hair behind her ear.
"What?!"
They exclaimed in concert again.
"Why? Any problem? Don't tell me all of you will start interfering in my relationship!"
"Of course not!" Yelled Sian. He forgot his surroundings, hence some people turned their heads in his direction. He coughed lightly and continued in a low voice.
"Isn't it enough for you to make me your guinea pig for these past 2 years? In the name of your so called hypnotism practice? Now, you even want to date such a person! No wonder you've been acting weird these last couple of days." Zhou mumbled musing.
"That is too risky. How about that university Y's guy? You broke up?"
"It's been a long time."
"And that rookie singer who just recorded recently?" Zhou chimed in.
"And my friend?" Sian added. He felt bad for his friend.
"And the cop from our previous mission?" Zhou jogged her memory.
"Nah They were all just passing guys" She answered lightly waving her hands.
"How many relationships are you in right now?" Lee couldn't help asking.
He'd never been very curious about his little sister's romantic escapades. However, as he heard his siblings enumerate the 'concubines' in her harem, he realized his ignorance and was worried. Regardless, Senja, Sian and Zhou were his responsibility.
"Seriously?! None"
"Damn girl! Who do you think you are? Casanova?!" Cursed Sian.
"Bugger off!" Said Senja fiercely. "What should I do? I can't help myself whenever I see beautiful things"
"Lil-sis, they are not 'things', they are men. Aren't you afraid that your brother could be treated in the same way in the future?" Zhou felt helpless every time he encountered Senja's eccentric views.
"Bro, you are not dumb enough to let a woman treat you that way, right? Whatever it is, it's not a sin if I adore something beautiful. Moreover, I never cheated on them. I break up in a proper manner with them before I move into another relationship. Can't you see that? I am quite faithful!"
"Faithful, my ass! You break up and start anew every week! Even I don't wash my clothes that fast!" Sian chided.
Yuck!!!
"It's not good for a girl to have many relationships. What people will say about you then?"
"Oh, I think they will be more interested in me as a thief rather than my relationships Don't worry my brother, your beautiful sister is in her prime. It's all normal for a girl my age" She said virtuously.
