The work, though necessary, felt mundane, and the silence seemed to suffocate her. With a mischievous glint in her turquoise eyes, Akako decided to liven things up.

Akako giggled softly, watching her sister fumble in confusion, trying to pull the mask off, but it was tied too securely for her to do anything.
