At 7 am, Ladssa was roughly awakened by Lana. They had only slept for less than two hours.
As they walked to the supermarket, Larissa couldn’t stop yawning. She had to put in much ellort to keep her drooping eyelids open; otherwise, she would just fall asleep at any second.
On the other hand, Lana was full of energy. She seemed to have forgotten everything that had happened yesterday. “Hurry up, Larissa! If we are late, we won’t be able to buy fresh ingredients! Dragging her sister. Lana walked at a brisk pace.
The supermarket was different from the tamers’ market. It officially opened at 0.30 am.
When they arrived, the store clerks were still moving boxes of freshly delivered vegetables into the supermarket. Some shelves were still empty, and no one was at the weighing station or the checkout counter.
Standing at the entrance of the supermarket, Lana complained, “Larissa, why didn’t you tell me that they open at 8.30 am? III had known would have pul on some makeup before leaving!”
Larissa was too exhausted to even argue with her.
Lana asked one of the store clerks to help her choose a whole chicken, two pork ribs, and some vegetables. She counted on her fingers as she listed cff the items she needed for her meat

Larissa offered to take Lana to the Microworks Building, but she refused. Tll go by mysell. You’ve been through a lot since last night. You should have a meal and gel a good sleep.” Lana sounded like a considerate little sister.
Larissa didn’t really want to go out either. Since Lana insisted, she agreed without any argument.
However, right after finishing her meal, she received ad stress call from Lana.
“Larissa, please come to the Microworks Building right now! The security guard won’t let me In without a visilor’s pass!”
“Didn’t you call Mr. Rogers? Larissa asked her.
Before leaving, Lana specifically asked her for Kevan’s phone number so that she could contact him when she arrived at his office.
“I called, but no one answered. He’s probably in a meeting.” Lana urged anxiously, “Please bring me the visitor’s pass before the food
