Jerome was making a sandwich. The past days, he had been apart from the other residents, even from Alfie.  He headed to his room, when Joy appeared from nowhere.

Joy: Jerome, I need to talk to you.

Jerome: If it’s about Mara, no thank you.

Joy: Why won’t you listen to me?

Jerome: Joy, it has been hard enough to say goodbye to her.

Joy: That’s why I’m here. You don’t need to say goodbye to her.

Jerome looked more carefully at Joy.

Jerome: What are you talking about now?

Joy: I contacted her, by her email, she didn’t changed it.

Jerome: And?!

Joy: She says she wants to talk to you.

Jerome didn’t know if going upstairs with Joy to talk to his love of life, or just letting her go away. It was for sure that she wouldn’t come back, and he didn’t want to just chat with her or so. He wanted her with him, there.

Jerome: Okay, I’ll talk to her.

Jerome followed Joy upstairs. Joy opened the email, and gave it to Jerome to read. Then, she went outside of the room and closed the door after her. Some minutes after, Jerome was crying already.

Jerome: I knew it.

Rosie: So, did you discovered what you needed?

Fabian: I think even more than I thought about.

Rosie: What do you mean?

Fabian: Well, I had another vision while being there. It was a group of students, Nina included. Some minutes after, 2 of them went inside the library, but didn’t see me. And when I left, another girl from my vision appeared as well.

Rosie: Interesting… Why didn’t you talk to them? Maybe they’d have given you some clues about your past.

Fabian: I didn’t need to, I know it already.

Rosie: You do?

Fabian: I believe so. When being on that school, and the library, I could remember things. I remembered being there as well, in uniform.

Rosie: So, you believe you were a student on there?

Fabian: And not only that. I believe I lived in the Anubis house.

Rosie: How would you know about it?

Fabian: I don’t know, but I feel like that’s just it. It sounds so familiar to me.

Rosie: We’d try and call Emily when reaching home, she’d help you.

Fabian: Actually, I saw her on the hallways. She was going to her first class, and moving into the Anubis house where she’s staying later. I’d call her on the night.

Rosie: That’s a good idea. By then, she’d be able to tell you something about from what you saw.

Fabian: … I have hopes on it.

Willow: Alfie, want to go out after classes?

Alfie: Yes, but before, I have something to tell you.

Willow: It can be while we’re gone and-

Alfie: I don’t think you’d want to go out after you hear it.

Willow: …What is it?

Alfie took a deep breathe. He knew he had to tell Willow what happened earlier with Amber.
