I am the Entertainment Tycoon-Chapter 217 Ethereal Forest
Tuesday, December 1st
A silver-haired man was sleeping peacefully under the covers.
His sleeping features were capable of enticing any girl who looked at them.
Suddenly, his eyelids started moving slightly.
From the carousel of random ideas comes some order - a subtle awareness of who he was under the flow of thoughts with their loose connections to his waking life.
After a few moments more the silver-haired man began to analyze them in a lazy way, perhaps these ideas are meant to be kept.
Some are composed as if from a book he once read, some are just silly.
In another moment they are gone leaving no trace.
If they are still in his head there is no bread crumb trail back to them.
His eyelids with long silver eyelashes flicker open to the unlit room.
No daylight.
He closes them again, willing the carousel to return, for his mind to tumble back to dreams, but it won't.
,m Now the tasks of the day are demanding he thought about them, watch the opening of the animation studio, draw mangas, and work on his music album.
He was awake and there was no retreat.
Theo stole a glance at his cellphone that was on the nightstand.
'Aaargh, I shouldn't have drank so much last night.' Theo complained as he remembered the night before.
After Theo said he would get the tickets for Cara's concert in Sakura City, all of them celebrated the news.
Even his sister had an excited smile on her face when she realized that she would go on vacation with her brother and friends AND watch Cara's concert.
They spent the rest of the night drinking and planning their trip.
They even roasted some food on the fireplace in the living room.
Everyone had the time of their lives.
Theo even allowed Aurora to drink a glass of wine.
And the girl loved the taste of alcohol.
But that was because the wine that he gave her was delicious, if he gave her a beer, he was sure that she would hate it.
After all, most people hate the taste of beer when they taste it for the first time.
And Theo was not an exception, that's why he preferred drinking wine.
And the night before he drank at least 1 bottle of wine.
His luck was that when he usually got drunk, he just became more playful.
Theo was young and had an enhanced body given by the system, so he had to drink tons of alcohol to be hungover.
Therefore, the only thing he had was a little headache behind his eyes.
But that would pass when he took a shower.
Theo stood up as he stretched his arms in an attempt to wake himself.
"Sylph, open the window shades." Theo asked as he turned his head to where the windows were supposed to be.
The room was pitch-black as he liked to sleep in the absolute darkness.
As soon as he said that, Sylph captured his voice and operated the system to open the shades of his room.
When the shades were lifted Theo was able to see the world of white outside his house.
Amid the starlight was the ever glow of the moon, that mother of the sky who watched over every beating heart, steady and true.
Wands of rising branches became dancing silhouettes in the moonlight.
The white light that came from the big celestial mass in the skies shone upon the snowy forest.
As it gave an ethereal feeling to the view in front of him.
The snowstorm from last night raged until 10 pm, and it was only then that Theo's guests heaved a sigh of relief.
If the storm was over, it would not take much time for the streets to be cleaned from the accumulated snow.
But even after the storm passed, the snow did not melt.
The snow seemed unwilling to be washed away from Elffire City.
Theo saw the Pedrarruna Forest behind his house encased in a suit of white, and the crystalline lake in his backyard seemed eager to capture the moon's reflection in its waters.
Theo became enchanted by the view in front of him.
'So beautiful!' Theo exclaimed in wonder.
He stood up from his bed and walked to the side of his floor-to-ceiling windows.
Even though the outside world seemed freezing cold, it was cozily warm inside his bedroom.
Even the ground was heated, so Theo could not feel the cold weather.
Theo picked up his phone and took some pictures of the view in front of him.
He even posted a Raingram's stories.
He wanted to share with his friends the view of his bedroom on this cold morning.
Theo observed for a little more before he moved to his bathroom.
He needed to start his day.
Theo had too many things to do these days.
In the square of black rock, the shower water runs free and easy.
Theo wished he could stay there all day in its cocoon, but the day awaits.
He dressed in his workout clothes before stepping out of his bedroom.
He looked at his sister's closed door in surprise.
'It seems that she was too tired that she didn't even wake up for our workout.' He reasoned.
Theo walked to her door and stopped in front of it.
He was hesitating if he should wake her up.
He knew that the best thing for her was to let her sleep more this morning, but he was also aware that if he did that Aurora would be upset with him.
She made perfectly clear to him that he should wake her up when she was not able to get up by herself.
Theo sighed in defeat as he entered silently her room.
He could not bear to have his little sister upset with him.
'I spoiled her too much.' Theo complained.
But he knew that he would not stop spoiling her.
After all, she was the only blood family he had in his two lives!
How could he not spoil her?
Her room was pitch-black just like Theo's was when he was sleeping.
Both of them enjoyed sleeping without any sort of lights on.
The lights coming from the corridor illuminated her room, and Theo was able to see his sister sleeping peacefully on her enormous pink bed.
Her silver hair was spread on her pillow and she had pink covers over her body.
But the thing that attracted more attention was her angelic face as she hugged a stuffed animal.
And the most peculiar thing was that this stuffed animal was not a common one.
It was a baby orange fox with nine tails on its back.
That's right!
Aurora was hugging a stuffed baby Kurama!
The Nine-tailed Demon Fox, Kurama, from Naruto.
Obviously, this stuffed animal was not available for sale.
Theo requested this personalized Baby Kurama when the merchandise factory was finished.
Only Sayuri, Theo, and Aurora saw the stuffed animal.
So, there was no possibility of spoilers leaking.
Even Aurora and Sayuri did not manage to associate Kurama with Naruto.
But as soon as Aurora saw the Baby Kurama, she fell in love with the stuffed animal.
Ever since then she has been sleeping with it.
Theo's heart could not help but melt when he saw the scene in front of him.
'How can she be so cute!?' He thought as he picked up his phone and took some pictures of her sleeping with Baby Kurama.
He would keep these pictures as the holy grail for when he wanted to see something cute.
Theo sat at the border of her bed and stroked her silver hair.
Her silver eyelashes which were just like his own silver eyelashes fluttered as he stroked her head.
"Hey..." He said softly.
"Wakey, Wakey, sleepyhead." He said with a loving voice.
It was at that moment that her eyelids opened a little and Theo managed to see her purple eyes looking without focus at him.
The electrical purple eyes shone in that cold but also cozy morning. ƒ𝑟𝙚e𝔀𝗲𝒃n𝒐𝘷𝗲Ɩ.c𝗼𝚖
A new had started and Aurora had just woken up.
What would the day have reserved for them?
