June couldn't sleep at all that night.

     She kept thinking about that note, who sent it and what it means. 

     June kept on turning from one side to another. She really can't sleep no matter what position she tried. 

     She tried counting sheep, she tried counting one to one hundred backwards, but it felt like she drank a dozen cups of coffee to prevent her from sleeping.

     When morning came, June's head was aching due to her lack of sleep. Her body was aching so bad, she never felt so tired.

     "Whoa June, what happened to you? You look like a zombie." Droon asked June as he stretches himself from a good night sleep.

     "I just.... ugh. I haven't slept a wink." June replied with a yawn. 

     Droon went to the kitchen section and roasted some coffee for both of them.

     "Here." Droon handed June a cup of coffee.

     June mumbled a thanks before sipping her coffee. After a few minutes of comfortable silence and a few sips of coffee, Droon spoke again.

     "So, what kept you up all night?" He asked. "Is there anything wrong?" 

     "There's," June paused, she was having second thoughts if she should tell anyone about the note yet. "....nothing wrong. I really just can't sleep." She lied.

     Droon took a sip of his coffee and eyed June suspiciously. "Are you sure?"

     June mustered the most convincing fake smile she could give. "Yeah." 

     The other heirs slowly began to crowd at the kitchen, June stood up and went to the bathroom hurriedly. After a few minutes, she's done and ready to go.

     "Where are you going?" Evin asked. The other heirs looked at June for her answer.

     "Somewhere." June replied as she fixed her things. "Don't go look for me."
