Chapter 170 Morning Workout

Thursday, November 26th

The sun hadn't even risen in the skies when Theo woke up.

Lately, he has been only sleeping 4 hours at night because after he arrived from the restaurant at night, he would work in the recording studio until late.

And adding the fact that he woke up early to do his morning workout, Theo only slept for 4 hours per night.

But that was not a problem for him with his enhanced physique.

He blinked his eyes as he reached to grab his phone on the nightstand.

[5:02 AM]

Theo sat up on his bed when he saw it was time to get up.

He walked toward the bathroom to get ready to work out.

A while later, he exited his bedroom dressed in workout clothes.

Coincidentally, when he closed the door of his room, he heard Aurora's door opening.

He looked over and saw Aurora leaving her room with a sleepy face.

"Good morning, Cupcake!" Theo exclaimed with a smile.

He was impressed that she was able to wake up so early by herself.

"Good morning, Big Brother!" Aurora replied with a sleepy smile.

Even though she wanted to go back to sleep when her alarm started ringing, she still woke up when she remembered that she wanted to spend time with her brother.

But she still could not shake away her sleepiness.

"I was planning to wake you up if you weren't up yet." Theo chuckled as they started walking toward the stairs.

"That's sweet, brother!" Aurora replied with a loving voice.

She knew that her brother didn't want her to be sad about missing the workout, it was a sweet action of his.

"Come on! Let's go for a run around the lake!" Theo laughed as he pulled her downstairs.

While they passed the living room, they saw Mayia sleeping cutely on the couch.

Aurora and Theo almost had a heart attack of so much cuteness.

"Oh my god!" Aurora exclaimed in a low voice to not wake her up.

"Let's take a picture of her!" Theo whispered back with shining eyes too.

Mayia was just too cute!

The siblings took tens of the little cat as she slept soundly not noticing two humans looking at her with strange eyes.

Theo and Aurora were fighting against the urge of squeezing Mayia.

But in the end, they left the kitten to sleep more while they went to the backyard of the mansion.

It was still dark outside when they arrived there.

But the sky was already showing signs that the sun would be rising soon.

The two silver-haired people started running is a steady pace on the lake's lane.

They did not talk much.

They just enjoyed each other company as they admired the sun rising on the horizon as they ran.

Sometimes being silent with the other is a way to show that both were comfortable with each other.

And Theo and Aurora were like that.

The siblings experienced tough and happy times together, and they acquired the intimacy that most siblings don't have.

After all, most siblings have a normal relationship.

They are siblings, but they rather spend time with their friends.

But Theo and Aurora were different, the two of them spent three years fighting to survive through the grief of losing their parents and the difficulty of living in poverty.

In these years, they became more than just siblings.

They became each other's best friends.

Theo told everything to her, and she told everything to him.

Some people who had siblings would not understand them

They had to live with what Theo and Aurora went through to understand the bond between these two silver-haired people.

It was too easy to point fingers and say that their relationship was not a natural one between brother and sister.

But it is in difficult times that people get close to each other if they are meant to be.

Tough times can push away or bring together people.

And Theo and Aurora were an example of people who got closer through tough times.

A while later, Theo and Aurora stopped by the lake as they looked at the rising sun.

Satisfied smiles could be seen on their faces.

The view was spectacular.

And sharing this view with their sibling made it even more spectacular for them.

They stood silently for a while admiring the view and each other's company.

"Let's take a picture!" Aurora suddenly exclaimed.

Theo laughed when he heard that.

The two of them took a bunch of pictures together with the sun rising at the back.

Theo posted a storie on his Raingran account of him and Aurora admiring the rising sun.

Even though with his private account, he had few followers.

He wanted to share this moment with everyone who followed him there.

His account was full of pictures of Aurora and Mayia and his work at the restaurant.

Aurora also posted a beautiful picture of her and her brother where their faces are obscured and the rising sun is shining on the back.

Her account was not private and with her beauty, it was obvious that she had tons of followers.

She had more than two thousand followers.

After finishing taking the pictures, the two of them headed to the Gym Section of the house.

It was time for the martial arts training!

Theo wanted to inspect her proficiency in the martial arts that he taught her.

Even though he occasionally trained her in the lounge area of the third floor of the restaurant when they had dinner, he still wanted to make a full assessment of her capabilities.

"Okay, let me see if you really practiced these last few months." Theo smiled at her as they potioned themselves in the middle of the tatami.

"Then I will not be polite, big brother." Aurora replied seriously.

She knew that her brother was a master with much more skills that anyone in the Fight Club.

Even Megan could not compare with her brother.

After all, she saw her black belt sensei being taught by her brother!

Aurora wanted to show him that she indeed did not slack in her training in the last months, so she was super focused on the fight.

The two of them started circling around the tatami until Aurora made her move.

She gave a faint kick the dropped a knew on his chest.

Theo defended easily, but he was satisfied with her move.

The two of them continued training and fighting for a while.

Sometimes Theo would correct some of her moves and other times he would drop her on the tatami ground to demonstrate that she losing her steady stance.

At 6:50 am, the two of them were covered in sweat as they finished their training.

But both were smiling happily.

Theo was happy because it was indeed fun having his sister accompanying him in his morning workout.

Aurora on the other hand was happy because she loved spending time with her brother.

The two of them proceeded then to take a shower and get ready for the day.

A while later, the two of them were in the kitchen cooking together.

"Oh, I forgot to ask you. What do you think about inviting our friends to go with us on our trip?" Theo asked suddenly when he remembered the talk he had with Ayia the day before.

Aurora was taken by surprise when she heard that, but her eyes started shining one second later.

"It would be awesome to have them there too!" Aurora exclaimed excitedly.

"I thought the same thing!" Theo replied laughing as he placed some sushis on Aurora's bento box.

"How about we get..." Theo started telling her his plan.

The siblings had a lovely breakfast as they talked excitedly about the vacation plans.
