Noblesse in Slender Mansion

Chapter III

Light from the sun was slowly shining through the town of Grimgar, enveloping its warm rays to the coldness the night had left. Birds began singing their morning song as they flapped their wings feeling the sun's rays hitting their soft feathers, giving them warmth.

People rose from their beds and did their daily routine, some were still locked in their rooms, sleeping peacefully in their comfy beds, curtains closed not wanting to let even a speck of ray from the sun to come through.

The rectangle alarm clock rung through the greyish blue painted room, the dark blue haired young man stirred from his sleep 'cause of the ringing of the alarm clock. He was a light sleeper, so the continuous sound of the alarm ticked him off.

Rubbing his eyes and as he glanced at the damn ringing alarm clock, he glared at it as he grabbed it from his desk as he opened the nearest window slightly and threw the damn clock out, hearing it clashed on the hard pavement outside.

"Noisy.."

He sighed deeply, and was about to return to his peaceful slumber but then, memories of last night came rushing back endlessly through his head. With the same scene where he saw with his own pair of cerulean eyes playing again and again and it was enough to make his stomach churn once again.

He quickly jolted up once he felt a bile coming its way up to his throat and did not waste any second rushing towards his bathroom.

The flushing of the toilet was heard followed by the flowing of water from the sink which he then turned the faucet off once he finished cleaning his face and gurgling enough water for the horrible scent coming from his mouth to disappear.

He stood there looking in front of the mirror, staring at his very own reflection. Big dark circles below his eyes, water dripping from his pale face. His breath becoming faster every second that made him clutched both sides of the sink.

He closes both his eyes, trying to calm his self. Turning the faucet on again, splashing his face with its warm water.

Once he finished, he took the face towel that was folded inside his mirror closet and turned the lights off, exiting the bathroom as he closed its door behind. After drying his face, he threw the towel at the basket full of his laundry clothes.

He sighed once again after he recollected his self and sat on his bed which then bounced lightly. His phone made a continuous buzz and he quickly looked at it that was on his desk.

Someone was calling him.

His eyes too scared to even look at who the caller was, as he just let his phone keep on buzzing.

'Should I.. pick it up?'

He thought as cold sweats ran down his pale forehead, his whole body started shaking.

'What am I doing? I don't even know who's calling..'

This thought made him sweat dropped literally, he shook his head and decided to--first, look who's the caller. Second, if it is anyone other than her, then he'll pick it up. He breathes deeply and slowly turned his head towards his phone and saw who the caller was--

And the caller was someone, not just someone--that someone, was his teacher.

The moment he saw at who it was, the phone happens to stop buzzing and so he had already missed the call.

His chemistry teacher's call. The one who happens to be a not-so-friendly kind of teacher.

"Shit.."

He thought, why did mr. Seigfred called him? When it was still so early in the morni--he took a glance at his phone and both his eyes widened.

'9:27?!! Are you fvcking kidding me?! That alarm clock was broken?!'
