Etia woke up in Alan's embrace. She didn't remember what happened last night until she saw empty bottles of wine—a few of them. That sight enlightened her about yesterday's happenings.

— Good morning. — Alan opened his eyes and spoke. He always woke up before, or not long after, Etia. — Did you sleep well?

— Yes. — Etia's hair was messy after her and Alan's celebration.

— I have some work to do. — Alan got up and dressed. — We'll meet later.

He ran out of the room and left Etia alone.

— Why can't he stay longer? — She was regretful that he had to leave, but understood that they could live in this house because of his job. — Let's get up.

Etia was hired as a teacher. Mayor Ux needed someone to teach his twins, but didn't want to send them to a school. Etia insisted she didn't even finish the first year of university, but Jaon wanted her as a teacher, nonetheless.

Etia stood up and made the bed. After getting together with Alan, she took care of the house much more than before their fated encounter.

— So, I have to teach them how math? That's going to be easy. — Etia was surprised that this was all she had to do.

— Yes. You're very talented, and I know it. There are many teachers, but none are as smart as you. — Eura Ux was positive she would be the best person for the job. — Other than that, you're the cheapest option we have.

The mayor was already providing them with a house and all necessities, so Etia and Alan could be paid less than ordinary workers. They couldn't complain because it was a fair trade.

— If that's all, then I don't have a problem. — Etia reached an agreement with the mayor's wife. She was offered a job after expressing her will to help Alan.

— So, these are the children you will be teaching. — Eura showed Etia a picture of two children. They looked about eight years old.

Etia had no idea what she agreed on.
