Chapter 1
It was just another average night in the Chau household (as average as it can be with the exception of weapon Training, demon slaying, and magical artifacts one could get)
both Jentry and Grandma Gugu were resting in their own rooms (how do ghosts sleep?) to rinse the cycle and await a new day. At least for them, same isn’t said for young Ed sneaking about at the late hour.
“Alright Jentry Chau, let’s see if you can allow some late phone privileges.” Said the Jiangshi that stayed up in this time of night
Ed murmured as he creaked the door open and snuck into his new best friend Jentry’s room. Here’s hoping that she won’t put up a fuss about him using her phone for his precious social Media.
His many followers on TikTok always needed his attention and since there was only the one IPhone 📱 that was available for him to do so, and what better time than now to get a few subscribers than 2 in the morning right? with that ‘justifiable’ motive in mind for the Jiangshi to do this, he continued to make his move.
“Just gotta use your Phone for a bit, and return it before Jentry gets up, and that’s hours away anyway, besides she won’t mind will she?” Ed asked himself as he made his way to the table besides Jentry where she was sleeping unaware of Ed’s presence.
The egotistical little demon made it to Jentry’s bedside and was about to reach her phone when he hears Jentry’s snores right behind him on her bed.
Jentry: “Snoorre…” Zzzz…” Jentry turns in her bed, mouth slightly drooling as she churns around in her bed before settling in again, clearly in deep slumber.
Jeez, do all humans sleep like monkeys? Well guess they aren’t the brightest species for a reason, but they have their moments every now and then.
He was interrupted from his thoughts when he heard Jentry (still sleeping) lifted her right leg up in the air, still covered over her blanket, Jentry’s face seemed conflicted spite her restful state.
“Zzz…Gugu…no..” the Asian girl muttered though it was hard to comprehend what she was saying. Sounds like whatever she was dreaming about wasn’t pleasant, or at the very least unusual for Jentry standards.
“…I can’t..use..my fire..to warm your …dumplings…Gugu” Jentry murmured in her sleep, as if she was actually
Ed diverted his attention to the restless sleeper 2ft away from him, his noble quest to use his best friend’s phone for Tiktok on hold for the time being to wonder whether Jentry was about to get up or not.
Jentry seconds later drops her leg down and rolls over to her left, facing Ed with closed eyes and snores. She was definitely still dreaming about…making dumplings.
“Zzz…you can…make…steam..dumplings..with…your oven…zzz…like…everyone else…Gugu..” Jentry mumbling about Gugu and dumplings in her dreams? How cute.
…Zzz…Stella will…be..at…the door…soon
Ed lightly smiles at this, it’s kinda funny to see that his new best friend has quite the humor side to her, even though it’s in her dreams.
Ed lightly tugs her phone off the charger, turning it on to see that it’s about 82% charged. Good enough for Ed, with his mission nearly complete Ed was about to make his escape when he was
Suddenly an arm grabs him from behind and pulls him close to Jentry’s torso
“Eggh!?” Ed made a small noise of surprise as he was suddenly wrapped in Jentry’s arms like a plushie, and as his struggle with trying to wiggle out of the teen’s grasp but no luck.
“Hmmm?” Jentry groggily looks with barely open eyes, looking blearily at what she’s holding onto. Her brain barely functioning in this time
Uhh..hi Jentry?” Ed looks nervously At Jentry’s tired expression, hoping he can get out of this awkward scenario.
Umm…guh mornin..Ed…
Ed was confused whether Jentry was more asleep than awake at the moment. But he tries to take
..mmm….whatever..*yawns*…mmmm” Jentry yawns before holding Ed closer like her plushie. It’s kinda cute and funny with how the little demon tried his hardest to escape the teen’s grasp.
Technically Ed just got Jentry’s permission, now he just needs to get out of this heavy sleeper’s grasp.
Just…stay……zzz…with it…I gotta..get dressed…for Stella…she’ll be…here….” Jentry sleepily mumbles as she apparently is dreaming..about Stella visiting now?
now it appears that her dreams
