I Took Her In, She Locked Me Out (To Die)
After working for five years, I finally get to purchase my favorite penthouse in Rainville.
Tessa Boston, my younger cousin who has just graduated from high school, tells me she wants to stay with me during her summer break.
I want to reject her at first, but my mom claims that we're all relatives here, and that I shouldn't act all high and mighty just because I'm richer now.
So, everyone drops Tessa off on my doorstep without even consulting me.
But after Tessa starts living with me, she frequently sings loudly and makes a lot of noise in the middle of the night. I can't get a good night's sleep because of her.
After that, she even invites her old high school classmates over to the penthouse and throws a party there.
Tessa tells her classmates that this is the smallest residence she owns. Apparently, this is a gift she has received to celebrate her 18th birthday.
Everyone is envious of her and calls her an actual heiress of a wealthy family.
But these punks completely mess up my penthouse. My neighbors begin lodging noise complaints against me.
Unable to take it anymore, I warn the youngsters to keep their voices down. But Tessa thinks I've humiliated her, so she begins harboring a grudge against me.
When I'm watering my flowers on the balcony, she uses that opportunity to lock me outside.
It's an insanely hot day. I'm stuck on the balcony from morning till night. By then, I've already died from the heat.
When I wake up again, I've returned to the day Tessa tells me she wants to stay with me.
