You hesitated whether to wake up him up or not because he was sleeping so peacefully. 

He seems to be too comfortable with a stranger in his house. You thought as you bite into an apple on a sofa. Then, you turned on a TV on silent mode and subtitles on.

Channel 9 news : 

"10 High school students were reported missing this morning and it seemed like this is not a mere coincidence. Right now, I am standing in front of Morris High School and I'm with John, a local police officer. Hi, John. Please share with us what you know so far." A news reporter asked.

"I don't have any information yet. All I know is we were notified by the school principal just 3 hours ago that students went missing and none of their parents can be contacted. I had the teachers evacuated all the students to the field and checking attendance. My team are still searching inside the school." A police officer said.

The news reporter walked to the field.

"Let's talk to the teachers. Hello, I'm Cassandra from channel 9 news." The news reporter introduced herself.

"Hi. I'm Donna. 10th grade homeroom teacher." A teacher said. 

"Donna, I saw that you finished checking attendance early. Are all your students here?" Cassandra asked.

"F-five of them are missing." Donna said.

"When was the last time you saw them?" Cassandra asked.

"They were in my class. Three of them excused themselves to go to the bathroom, but they never come back. So after class, I talked to a teacher and she said students in her class also disappeared." Donna said.

"You said five of your students were missing?" Cassandra asked.

"Y-yes. It seems like two of them haven't come out yet." Donna said.

"I saw them fighting in the hallway!" The first student yelled out.

"Hey! It doesn't have anything to do with this. They always have a couple fight." The second student said.  

"But, it looked serious this time. He yanked her hair and pulled her somewhere. We should tell-" The first student argued.

"That's because he's craz-" The third student said.

"All of you, stop!" Donna scolded her students.

"It seems that the number of missing students are still being counted. I will get back to you with more updates. I'm Cassandra Jones from Channel 9 news." Cassandra said and an advertisement cut in.

You changed a TV channel.

"So ambulances were called in by a local near Morris High School. The local said she heard people calling for help from underground as she was about to drive to work. The police concluded that there weren't anyone in the sewer or underground." A news reporter said and changed the topic to weather report.  

People disappear again and some of them are so young. You thought.

*Thud*

You turned to the bedroom and listened. You guessed Dr. Kim woke up, but you didn't hear any sound after that. So you went to check.

Dr. Kim was on the floor and he was crushing his pillow with a hug. You walked to him to remove the pillow from his face.

Gosh! You tried pulling his pillow and his arms, but nothing budged. You were also surprised that his arms were ice cold.

"Are you trying to suffocate yourself?" You said as you fought for his pillow. 

"22. 8. No. Don't take them. Don't!" He muffled under the pillow.

"Oouch!" You yelled because he accidentally kicked you in the stomach as he put his leg over the pillow.

"What are you? A baby?!" You yelled again. Then, you noticed that he really won't be able to breathe if he stayed like that longer. This is bad! Also, no human could be this cold and still be fine. Something is seriously wrong with him!

The thought of using force to wake him up came into your mind, but there was no way you could hit him. What am I looking for? Violence is not my way. You thought as you gave a quick look around the room. 

Your eyes were back on the pillow again and you sprinted to the kitchen. You came back with a fruit knife and made a small tear on the pillow before throwing it out the door. Feathers were flying all over you as you ripped the pillow and pulled them out. 

He should breathe before anything else. You thought and he started to loosen his grip of the pillow. 

"Wake up!" You shook his arms, but he wouldn't wake up. 

He calmed down? His temperature is back to normal. You thought while you slumped next to him.
