"I'm so bored."
Fiona lay sprawled on the bed, pouting in frustration.
She glanced out the window, where the sun blazed brightly. Fall had arrived, yet the heat outside refused to fade.
It made her too lazy to go out and play, so she chose to lounge around in her room instead.
But lying around like this was just as boring—and it only made her even more irritated.
"Why the long face, Fiona? Is something bothering you?"
Stella's curious voice snapped Fiona out of her thoughts.
Turning to her right, Fiona saw Stella sitting on the edge of the bed, holding two glasses of strawberry juice.
"I'm just so bored, Sister," she muttered listlessly.
Usually, her sisters Iris and Charlotte would play with her. But lately, they both seemed too busy.
Charlotte now spent most of her time in the library reading, while Iris had suddenly taken an interest in magic.
Every day, she buried herself in a pile of magic books and studied them seriously.
