Tighnari was sitting on his bed, thinking of what to do in his dorm all alone. He was done with his latest flower study last night, so his desk was messed up with flowers and leafs. And it was a total mess.
He sighs and gets up to gather the mess on his table until he realized what's missing.
He has been feeling the hollow for a month now, and he couldn't find the courage to admit it. But he couldn't deny it anymore. Since Cyno was gone, anxiety and worry never left him. He sensed that something was wrong.
Because Cyno told him that he will come back in a week, not a whole month. What could take him so long? Tighnari couldn't help but worry, since Cyno didn't send any letters or news to him either or anyone else.
Tighnari's face turned into a frown as he started to gather his desk slowly. He decides that he will just get out of his dorm to ask about Cyno, he still had hopes about that he could find him.
He got out of his dorm to head to the library with steady steps, his frown remains on his face. He opened the door slowly to find Collei reading her book in the corner in the library. He sat next to her slowly, yet she didn't even see him coming.
"Hello, Collei" Tighnari greets with a slight hint if worry in his voice. Collei looks up to him and gives him a soft smile.
"Hey, Master" she greeted back gently as she nods and gazed at Tighnari's face for a moment before noticing the frown. "You look upset today, Master. Did something unfortunate happen?"
"No... It's just..." Tighnari thinks and looks at the ground, his frown came back to his face. "I'm just worried nowadays."
"About what, Master?" Collei asks in concern and slightly tilted her head.
"... About Cyno" Tighnari sighs. "He said he'd back back from Monstadt in a week but he hasn't came back in a month. And he didn't send any letters either."
"I don't think anything bad happened to him, Master. So you don't need to worry I guess. Perhaps he witnessed an unfortunate situation on his way back to Sumeru." Collei reassured and puts the book in her hand aside.
"That could be the case but... I still feel uneasy about this. He could have sent a letter, or news... What if something really bad happened to him? I sense it... Collei." Tighnari indicated as he slowly felt overwhelmed by his emotions and senses.
"I believe that you have great senses of feeling the trouble or misfortune, Master. But don't think too much about it, I guess." Collei reassured him as much as she can, her voice went softer as she spoke.
"Thanks, Collei. but I guess I'll look more into it." Tighnari said with a determined tone. He immadiately gets up and walks out of the library, until he founf a newspaper on the floor. Something caught his eye on the newspaper, he picked it up from the floor and looked qt it carefully.
There was a picture of Cyno, and a few information written underneath.

Tighnari's eyes widened as he read the news. He felt his hear beat dropping and he couldn't believe what he has just seen and he ran back towards Collei to show her the newspaper.
"COLLEI! CYNO WENT MISSING!"
Collei's jaw dropped open when she heard that. The whole library was looking at them right now. It was quite embarassing, yet they had to hear about it since Cyno was an important person in Sumeru.
"W-what?!" Collei cried.
