- The Next Morning -
By the time I returned to the dorms, most of the other girls still weren't asleep. That didn't make sense, given the time—5 in the morning—so I only had about an hour to sleep before having to wake up again. It was a pain since I was very tired, but there wasn't really much of a choice for me, unfortunately.
I say 'most of the other girls' because there were a few of them who had already gone to bed, namely Obsidia, Lin Luo, and Bai He, while the others remained sitting in front of the TV as they were engrossed in some movie.
"… You guys are still up?" I asked, sighing in exhaustion as I entered through the door, opened by Qing Yue.
"Well, yeah. Can't sleep while you're still out there, right?" Feng Mian smiled happily, waving despite the black circles underneath her eyes. They didn't do much to hinder her beauty, but it was a bit out of place.
