I woke up feeling a warm and squeezy embrace. I turned to check, to my dismay, I found naked Anna cuddling me in her sleep. I panicked and hurriedly checked if I was fully clothed. I was in the same clothes I wore yesterday. But knowing Anna, I was not assured. I asked Hive AI to recall what had happened yesterday night. 

Since I refused to party or go clubbing, Anna asked to buy a beer keg. I decided to allow it as appreciation for her help with information on Chris Chase. Late at night, Anna and I returned to the warehouse with a beer keg. We drank ourselves silly to the point where we couldn't speak without stammering. Then we climbed on my bed and went to sleep. At that moment, both of us were clothed. Hive AI didn't report any foul play. So, why is Anna naked?

"It is morning already. What time is it?" Anna seemed to have woken up due to my movement. 

"7:12," I answered, still trying to figure out why Anna was naked when she went to sleep in her clothes. 

"What is wrong with you? Why did you wake me up so early in the morning?... Oh! You want me to take care of your morning wood?" Anna spoke sheepishly. Yet she did not forget her adult humor. 

"Shut up. Why the heck are you naked?" I yelled. 

"Don't you remember?" Anna answered with a question. 

"I do, I remember every little detail, but I don't remember you getting undressed." Despite Hive AI's help, I don't seem to recall Anna getting undressed, which is why it bugged me. 

"Well, I undress in my sleep. It usually happens when I am sleeping in my bed at home. But this is the first time I have undressed in my sleep outside my bedroom. It seems subconsciously I felt safe next to you, as safe as I feel in the royal palace." Anna once again started with her cringe bullshit. 

"Are you done? Now get dressed before Susan comes." Susan usually comes after 7: 30. I don't want her to see naked Anna in my bed and misinterpret the situation. 

"Why? What will happen if she sees us like this?" Anna's questions stumped me and forced me to think about the worst-case scenario of Susan seeing Anna rolling naked in my bed. 

"Shut up and get dressed already. This warehouse is my place of work. I don't want Susan to think that I am using it for purposes other than work." Yes, I did not want Susan to misunderstand what was happening here. 

"Why do Susan's thoughts matter to you?" Anna did not budge from the bed. Instead, continued to question me why I do what I do. 

"Susan is my friend and colleague. Her opinion matters. Anna, I beg you, please get dressed." I don't know why, but every time I think about Susan seeing naked Anna in my bed, for some reason, I feel guilty. 

"Nope, not happening. I am sleepy. I will continue to sleep. Do not disturb me." Anna threw the blanket covering her to the ground and slept on her side, leaving me facing her bare naked ass. 

"Fine, you win. Can you use your Dirt Purge card on me?" I gave up trying to change Anna's mind and let her be. 

"Aqua Wash, Dirt Purge '' Having helped me clean up dentally, physically, and even my clothes, Anna continued her sleep butt naked. 

"Thank you. Make yourself at home. I will excuse myself to the card lab. I still have to divide the silver milk powder into various construction levels." Now that I think about it, I have nothing to worry about. I can tell Susan that Anna used my bedroom for a night while I slept on the couch. She will believe me, right? Not waiting for Anna's reply, I head out of the bedroom and go to the card lab.

Following Luna's example, I divided silver milk powder into four grades depending on their concentration level and made pills out of them as per the medication for single use. Since the quantity of the silver milk powder was large with a high concentration, I took more time creating the pills than I expected. 

Walking out of the Card Lab, I ran into Susan and greeted her, "Good morning Susan." 

"Good Morning, An old gentleman named Rami Kaga and his grandson Kane Kaga are awaiting presence." After greeting me, Susan reported that customers were waiting for me.

"Oh, they are here already? They are earlier than I expected them to be." It seems that old Rami could not wait to check if I could get a platinum grimoire from the southern emperor. 

"And I was afraid the guest in your bedroom would catch a cold, so I covered her with a blanket. I hope I did not disturb her sleep." Susan spoke menacingly. 

"Oh, Anna isn't up yet? Yesterday we had too much to drink, so I let her sleep on my bed while I slept outside. Sorry, we trashed the warehouse and forgot to clean up after." I lied without batting an eye. But my heartbeats raced due to the guilt I felt. Lying was not new to me, but the guilt was new. It seems I care about Susan and her opinion of me. 

"Huh, that was it?" Susan asked in surprise. 

"Yes. Once again, sorry for the mess." I apologized for the mess drunk Anna and I created. 

"Oh, don't worry. Corey cleaned it up with her card." It seems Susan bought my lie. 

"Corey is here. Where is she now?" I decided to change the topic when I had the chance. 

"She is trying to poach your clients. Since she works for you, I thought, what the heck? And let her be. After all, whatever she earns will come to us anyway." Replied Susan. 

"If she is doing what you are saying. Then she is barking up the wrong tree. She will achieve nothing but scorn. But I like enthusiastic employees."
