Narrator: Nero
Chapter 12
"How will we know it worked?" Rem kept asking.
I was getting sick of this. Rem wasn't good at the art of the con.
"Did she take the bait?" she kept saying.
"Quiet!" I eventually shrieked.
"What'd I do?" she responded.
How could I explain this to her? Rem was too nice but I couldn't seem to tell her no. It was like she had a supernatural hold on me. Right now, she was randomly looking at youtube on Henrietta's phone. That's when we got a knock on the door.
"Nero, are you in there!?", Henrietta yelled.
I tried staying quiet but it was no use. Emilia had given her a key according to Rem. We were trapped like rats. When Henrietta opened the door, we were screwed.
She came in like a tornado. I couldn't protect Rem anymore. I yelled it out loud.
"It was Rem!"
