Waking Up Sucks (Sometimes)

Thirty-four.

The next following days went pretty normal.

But.

Not until the day of presentation came.

They can literally say that the situation I am facing as of the moment were a pure chaos.

I've been frantically panicking and pacing a lot when First didn't answer his phone.

"First, please. Answer my call."

Well. To tell you a short story, we're the ones who'll be presenting today.

Yet he's nowhere to be found.

"Gulf, calm down."

"How can I calm down?! That freak literally left me with nothing!"

"Have you tried---"

"I did everything and every means, okay?!"

"Gulf, I'm giving you last five minutes to present your project."

"But ma'am and sir, First is not here yet. I'm pretty sure he's--"

"We understand. But please do know that we still have a lot of things to do. Our time is limited."

"I'm s-sorry. I'll try to contact him again."

They let me contact him, while the other pair are currently presenting.

"Come on. Please, First."

Five minutes had passed.

"I'm sorry, son."

And I failed.

Big time.
