The morning

Meira pov
I woke up and yawn.
'Why it's so cold in here..'
As I hug myself

My eyes wide open when I saw that there's no door.
Literally,last night I'm 100% sure that there's a door.
I stand up and see a "hole" at my wall as my door was disappeared.

At the moment,my uncle get out from his and her wife shared room which is my parents room.
"What are you looking at?..."
He said as he scratch his head.

"Door..."
I said while pointing at the missing part

"Oh...your auntie broke the door.."
He said with 'don't care' intonation and get downstairs while calling his wife for food although his wife is still sleeping.

"Now...."
I look at my bed and saw my blanket.
I took another blanket in my closet.
The blanket was big and fit to replace the door for awhile.
I made the blanket as my door with a velcro strip beside it for the 'lock'.

William's house

I woke up as my mom knocking my door.
"Son,wake up..."she said.
"Yeah,I'm up" I reply.

As I heard my mom footsteps heading downstairs,I get up and shower.
Then,I come down for some breakfast.

I told my mom that I'll be doing my homework upstairs.
Gladly,my professors didn't give too much homework.
All of this could be done in a day.

In the evening

"YES!...finally I'm finished"
I said while closing my book and tidy up my desk.
As I wanted to put my books in my bag, I saw my sketchbook and realised that I hadn't finish Meira's portrait yet.

I took it out and continue my portrait progression.
I can't lie,that's the only homework that I smiled while doing it today.

As I finished drawing,I got an idea what to do tonight.

Meira pov

I glanced at the clock on the wall of my bedroom.
'It's 10:00 p.m.'
I thought.

"Oh my...when will I get to finish this.."
As I keep on writing,I heard a few knock from my window.
I turn around and look at my window.
I startled when I saw a human shadow at my window

'A thief?!...at this time?'
I said in my heart.
I walk slowly towards my bed and took a spanner that being hidden under my bed.
I'm getting ready to swing the spanner while opening the window curtain.

"WILLIAM?!.."
I said and cover my mouth because I said it too loud.
I open the window and start to question him nonstop.

"What are you doing here?"
"You're not worried that you'll get caught by my step parents?!"
"Why did you come at night and plus through my window?!...you can just facetime me.."
"And also...." I said softly

William cut my words of with putting his finger on my lips.
"Stop questioning...come...let's get out.."
He ask me to join him get down

"Are you crazy?!..."
Before I get to finish my words,
He took my hand and pull me down slowly to get down from the ladder he is using.

I got down but still he didn't let go of my hand and start to run.
'What is this guy trying to do?!...KIDNAP ME?!' I thought

He's so athletic.
I'm almost out of my breath while running and being pulled by him at the same time.
Literally.I'm just being dragged right now.
He has long legs while I have a short one.

'Please pity my short legs,William'
My heart speak.
