Almanzoz City

Chapter 6

Citrus's POV

Why is she taking so long down there?

I didn't ask when she'll be back- damn it.

Well since she looked cheery when I asked about the noodles, surely she'll come back during dinner.

The door of the elevator dinged open as I saw pretty much about an endless hallway of doors with other hallways branching out from the main hallway.

I looked at the sign that said: "1st floor = 1 - 30, 2nd floor = 30 - 60" I dare not read the rest.

There were about 20 floors in this building, not to mention there are other dorm buildings! Gosh, how many students are there in the school? I can't even do the math.

I finally found where our dorm room was thanks to the help of the signs, and there I reached for the keys in my pocket.

I twisted the key at the door handle and looked above to a number that said 45.

It's a shame we didn't get a higher number that were on higher floors, we could've gotten a great view.

I gawked as I stepped in, with the first thing I shifted my gaze onto in the dorm was the bunk bed! It looked incredibly comfy coming with its dark blue sheets, especially with a small kitchen next to it.

The bunk bed also comes with a desk covering a bit of the ladder of the bunk bed. With a huge beige sofa!

Pink curtains were facing opposite of the door, a set of white chairs with the same coloured table to eat the moment you step into the room, and another door beside the kitchen guessing it's the bathroom.

I immediately closed the door, placed my shoes on the shoe rack and dropped my bag against the white wall. I'm most likely taking the top bunk, since I deserve it.

Anyway, I should probably make dinner.

It didn't take long for me to figure out how to open the stove, seeming they're the same in Caspian.

I turned on the stove and poured in 2 cups of water to boil in the pot. I added the dry noodles that I already got from my house into the pot after, breaking up as softened.

All I have to do now is to let it cool for 3 minutes, stir it occasionally, then probably just add in 2 tablespoons of the soup base and spice.

I quickly grabbed the utensils and some plates, and then headed over to the table.

As I was minding my own business, the door clicked open.

"Aha! The dinner's almost ready, take a seat right now!" I called as those two sharp pointed ears rose up.

"Oooohh, something smells good." She removed her shoes and dropped her bag right next to mine too.

"Of course! This is Citrus you're talking about!"

She took a seat on the chair without even looking around and started to try the noodles I made.

"How is it!?" I queried.

"Mmm, delicious like usual!" She smiled.

"Knew it!" I finally dug in and slurped the delicious noodles.

Now, It's... questioning time!

"So, whaddya think of the dorm here? Does it look cool? I love the bunk beds here! Do you think I should take the top bunk? Oooh, are you already close with that Elysia friend? Who else did you meet in this school on your first day today?"

"One at a time... please..." She grabbed her water as if she was about to splash me with it, or maybe it was just my thought...

Are you kidding me? She didn't answer any of those questions and just continued picking the piece of meat in front of her with the chopsticks.
