Checking on her reflection in the mirror again, Edith was finally satisfied with how she looked like. Her hand that was about to reach the lipstick paused and Edith bit at her lips, wondering if she should go ahead and put them on.

Her grandfather was still watching some program in the living room. She did not want her grandfather to notice the bright color she was wearing and started to get suspicious. 

Her relationship with Neil had just begun and it would be too cruel if her grandfather chopped his body into several parts and used them as fishing bait…

She still wanted to date this man and fall in love with him.

Edith opened the door to a slit and peeked outside. A breath of relief escaped her once she noticed that her grandfather was sleeping. She tiptoed towards the door and paused when she heard a movement.

"Where are you going?"

Though she knew that her grandfather had awakened, Edith still jolted upon hearing his voice.
