Okay, do not blame me for this but ever since I opened my eyes in this new world, I only prioritised my survival for this world. And well, because of this priority, I may have overlooked (completely ignored) some big factors surrounding this body that I now reside in.

I should have already known from the clues I found about the life this body had lived.

This body was originally a stalker.

A stalker that could climb walls and take paparazzi pictures outside a window, on the 8th floor!!! No normal person can do this! But this body could!

Look, I was more freaked out by the hobby of stalking and possible blackmailing. This overshadowed everything else, so I ignored some questions I should have asked when I first realised what this body had done previously before it was given to me.

But you see you now, I didn't know this before, but I apparently never took part in sports class. And because of this, no one knew what I was capable of.

Now do not misunderstand. In my previous life, I wasn't terribly unfit. No, on the contrary, I could hold both my young twin siblings in my arms, so strength was not new to me. I would even pick up my naughty younger brother in a princess carry... he was truly naughty. He would even demand I carry him like this often even after he got so big. Don't teenage boys get embarrassed by this? Sometimes I didn't understand him. But at least he was good when I taught him how to do house chores. I know he will look after our siblings well now even if I'm gone. The power of being a younger sibling was indeed strong.

Oh, but yes, as I was saying, I am not new to strength, I was a very healthy and strong person before. I also liked to play table tennis. My speed and reflexes were impressive.

You have no idea how difficult it is to learn speed and reflex as an older sister. I want to keep this knowledge a secret but you shall know this now. You see my young twin siblings were but mere babies, not even toddlers when my grandma passed.

Although I was young, I knew it would be bad if one parent quit their job and I was just old enough that I could look after them after school. It was my grandma's dying wish that I look after my siblings and raise them well. Be a good filial daughter and protect the family.

I did. Indeed I did.

But my god did I learn the terrible truth about babies...

Have you ever changed a baby's diaper? How about changing two baby's diapers? How is it even possible that both my young twin siblings need diapers changed at the same time???

This was not realistic!!! But this is exactly what I went through. It was sadly very very very real.

Even worse, sometimes they would pee when I open the diaper. I have to avoid being hit by pee! ... babies are too scary o(〒﹏〒)o

I had to learn to be fast and agile in order to not be hit by pee. It was a terrible time, but it forced me to learn a good athletic skill, agility and speed. I even used this skill to play ping pong.

But I will be honest. I was happy when my baby twin siblings became toddlers. I didn't have to go through this again.

Ah, but instead they became very attached to me when they got older. I had to carry both of them very often. I suppose I should be happy my siblings wanted my affection, it means I was loved.

Being loved was very heavy...

In any case, I was very strong in my previous life. But this body. Oh goodness. This new body of mine was on a completely different level.

I had no idea when we did running that I would be so fast. I had no idea that when we did push-ups that I would be so quick to finish and not even out of breath. I had no idea when we did pull-ups that I would again be so quick to finish! Did this body even have limits?

This was indeed a body well prepared to stalk someone on the 8th floor! This body was monstrous…

If I was never given this body to be my own, what terrible things would the original host have gotten up to? She and this Hanni person actually planned to blackmail one of the handsome men in the pictures. I now believe it would have been completely possible.

In any case, all my classmates were shocked. But so was I!

I unknowingly brought attention to myself in class. The teacher even wanted me to join the sports club! But I didn't want this to take up my time. I was already trying to find a way to get into the drama class.

Just because I wanted to quit geography class and change it to drama class didn't mean it was easy to do. I was in my last year and exam season would be close by. How could the school allow such a request?

I already knew the teacher would give me good grades in the sports class so that was one worry out of my life. But I was having trouble getting into the drama class. I didn't even know anyone who could vouch for me to get me inside.

"Ah, why is life so hard?" I sigh.

"Alisa, what's wrong?" Mai asks me. She really was too nice. She was even patting my head to comfort me.

As I pondered about my day and what I went through, I had put my head down on the table in a lazy manner.

"Ahh, I want to be transferred into the drama class instead of doing geography. But I don't know how to?" I sigh again.

"Why not just ask the teacher to let you?" Mai looked very confused.

"But I haven't shown any interest in the subject all this time. And we're in our final year. Why would they let me?"

"Oh." Mai seemed to finally understand my dilemma.

"Well... if you want... I could speak to the teacher for you and recommend you." Mai suddenly looked shy as she suggested this plan.

I looked at her in shock as I didn't even know she was in the drama class.

"You're in the drama class? Wait, but would it be enough for the teacher?" I asked.

"Mm. It should be okay. The teacher is very nice. Also... um... if I tell the teacher you like to write novels as a hobby I think the teacher would definitely let you transfer in. Our teacher really likes people who write novels. It's a good skill to have especially for drama students." Mai had a bright smile as she spoke of the teacher.

Wait, was I lucky? Is this my chance I have been looking for?

I grab Mai and hug her close.

"Really? You're sure? Ah! I was so worried about my final year. I thought I was already too late."

"It's okay, don't worry. The teacher is very accepting. She will even talk to the head of the year to let you join. As long as you are passionate about the drama class, the teacher will definitely help you with all her strength." Mai reassures.

Ah, passionate eh?

It seems I cannot be lazy for this class. But that's fine. I was not lazy in my previous life so I will not be lazy in this life. If it's for my grades, I can definitely work hard.

I didn't know I would get so much help from my new friend.

Ah, I am so lucky.
