My name is Cecilia Martin I am the owner of the youPIPE channel ‘the girl in charge’ currently I have 0 views and 0 videos.

“I never though making a gaming stream will be this much nerve wracking” for the poor Cecilia she never thought such stuff need any amount of effort at all. You just go live, share your screen, laugh, and talk endlessly. She never thought about the software and hardware being used in the process and was currently reading though articles and watching videos on how to start.

“So, I need a new microphone? Cannot I just use the one integrated in the laptop??” yet the more she read, the more she knew she is a hopeless case to begin with. However, making such a needlessly stubborn girl give up will take a little more than some articles, or so she thought.

“This really is hurting my head… sigh… I guess I will have to organize it in my notes then” saying that Cecilia gets up from her comfy bed with great effort to grab her notes, truly befitting of a 16 year old earthling.

“In short, I will need two things, first money to buy stuff, second someone with enough technical knowledge and charisma to help me out. Family members and close friends are out of question” after saying the whole thing outload Cecilia just lay down one arm over her eyes.

“This will suck so hard, I swear” was the last thing she said before drifting to sleep to escape reality.

----------------------------------------

The next thing Cecilia remembered was when she was already in her lunch break. She knew she had a lot to do, but she also knew how to take on her responsibilities as a student well and decided to ignore the streaming task till she can finish her school day.

“Say Mira do you know a place to get a part time job that pays well enough over a month?” said Cecelia to her friend Mira, while playing with her own food, and zoning out.

“Not unless you wanna wear a maid dress” remarked Mira responding to the weird question with a nonchalant expression.

“We live in a society where only the rich can keep their dignity, I condemn capitalism for my tragedy” responded Cecilia with a nonchalant expression, showing how emotions weren’t important for them to communicate, they are already beyond that point.

“Well, I do have a thing in mind, but you won’t like it” Just as Mira said these words, Cecilia’s face went in confusion. She knew she was the one asking, but Mira was just as broke as she was, she didn’t expect an answer at all.

“So, we are doing crime after all?” said Cecilia to Mira. She always thought both of them were thieves in their last life, it was just a matter of time.

“No, Ali papa. Look her” said Mira as she got up and held, her friend head redirecting it to the direction of a certain table in the cafeteria. “See what I mean, Agnes is there” said Mira with confidence.

“Huh? But what shall I do? She is already too annoying to be around?” Said Cecilia, deliberately pretending she didn’t get what Mira meant. Because she never imagined she would go to such lengths.

“You know what I mean, the girl is loaded. Be her goon, and you will get paid handsomely obviously. Just act like you support her in every way” said Mira with a sinister grin on her face, she was never really the type to play clean and fair a true demon queen.

“MIRA?! I know she is annoying with all her pride and stuff. B-But that’s too cruel to pretend to be someone friend??!” said Cecilia marking her refusal to such sinful methods. However, there was a moment of silence between the two.

“Bruh girl, she literally threw you in a trash bin last school festival, just because you were in the way. I doubt she even remembers you, she is just very angry with everything all the time, unless you flatter her. What is there to feel sympathy for?” Said Mira with a glare at her friend. She knew Cecilia was too pure for this. However, unlike the emotional Cecilia, Mira was a calculative and cunning person.

“But…” and before Cecilia can argue further Mira put one finger on her lips.

“The poor have no freedom of choice, Lia” just like that Mira held her friend hand, and walked her through the crowds in the cafeteria, then pushed her off towards the said table with a smile. ‘fend for yourself my little birdie’ whispered Mira before disappearing.

‘I shall really consider cutting her head one day’ thought Cecilia to herself before her loathsome thoughts were cut by a sharp voice.

“How dare you!” the voice was too sharp to be made by Agnes, looking up Cecilia knew the source of the voice. It was Claire, known to be the number one goon of Agnes the terrible. It was very strange how Agnes wasn’t the one lashing out at her first, knowing how fierce her temper is. Rather she seemed to be lost in thought playing with her food, not paying much attention to her.

“Hey, didn’t you hear me?!” getting even more agitated Claire made her way up from her seat and towards Cecelia. It isn’t like Cecilia was planning to play along Mira’s plan from the start, she better just make it clear it was an accident and leave.

“I am sorry, the crowds pushed me here. I will just tale my leav-...!” but just as she was finishing her sentence, she could feel two hands garbing her firmly by the shoulder. ‘HEY! That’s a bit too much??’ asked Cecilia in her head surprised by how physical Claire could get over such a small accident.

“OH? IS IT NOW?? I know your type very well, you were just thinking of using our precious miss Agnes for your own gains, weren’t you” said Claire in a very haughty tune. ‘So, this is why Agnes only has Claire around all the time, she keeps them in check’ thought Cecilia not really knowing what to make of this whole suitation. The people’s eyes were gathering on them, and she had to somehow finish this fast.

“Claire just leave her be, she was already backing away” said Agnes finally opening her mouth, to stop the whole fiasco.

“But… miss Agnes she was-..” said Claire before being cut by Agnes again.

“I am not in the mood to play along today, Claire, don’t make me take an action” said Agnes in a calm and chilling voice, the total opposite of her normal fiery personality.

“You really made me lose my apatite” said Agnes in response to Claire silence as she got and left, Claire following her not much after glaring back at Cecilia for a moment. However, the crowd of people around the scene didn’t calm down yet.

“What are y all standing there for? Lunch time is already over sho sho” shouted Mira dispersing the crowds before murmurs even started to develop from them.

“Zero out of ten in flattery skills, Lia” said Mira acting as if this whole suitation didn’t just happen because of her. However, Cecilia has already determined her precious friend needed a punishment.

“I am definitely telling auntie Rose, you weren’t behaving” said Cecilia nonchalantly to her friend.

“Come onnnnn, you are joking right? Someone had to give you a little nudge” said Mira nudging her friend shoulder. But Cecilia just started packing her stuff quietly without responding.

“OI Lia, you are joking right? Right?” repeated Mira, her voice shaking. However, Cecelia just started walking out of the cafeteria, Mira following her.

“C-Come on Lia, Y-You know what MOM does. You won’t do this to me R-RIGHT?” again no response.

“I AM SORRY, I AM VERY SORRY. I AM REALY AFRIAD OF THAT MONSTER PLEASE!!” and again all Mira screams was in vain.

That’s how Mira had to spend an entire day with the monster ‘Jue’ in her room, repenting for her sins. She was never on good terms with house cats.
