Meeting The Grand Professor

Dressing up, David opened the door to exit his room but was met with a very large face Zooming quite close to his.

Surprised, David staggered backwards out of surprise and stammered upon realising who it was. "W-what are you doing here instructor?"

Instructor Aella squinted her eyes and then withdrew her expressionless face. "Was wondering how long you intend on staying cooped up in your room for."

The instructor dispassionately asked as she folded her hands below her chest.

David blinked his eyes and several of his brain cells fired up electrical signals frantically as he searched for an excuse. But even then, what excuse could he give for staying locked up in his room for almost three weeks that wouldn't outright sound like a lie.

Even after several seconds, he couldn't still think of a proper excuse and in the end, he responded. "Nothing much?"
