The next day, the Headquarters is real busy.

Like, the whole batallion is running around the corridors.

And I don't know what's going on.

And I haven't seen Warner, he didn't have breakfast with me, so instead of waiting for him, I went back to my room, and did nothing.

I'm kinda accustomed in doing nothing, and I'm actually doing great at it.

And then my door opened, and Cas walked in.

" Oh, good! You're up. " she said

" Good to see you too. " I said

She nodded.

She doesn't smile, at all.

And yet, I don't feel any sorrow in her.

" You don't smile at all, do you? " I said

She raised an eyebrow.

" Do you? " she said

It's a good thing that I am wearing my sunglasses.

" Do you even know how to smile? " I said

" Of course I do. " she said

I nodded.

" Don't you? " she asked

" I don't know how to smile, and I haven't found reason to smile. " I said

" Same here. Why smile if there is no reason at all?"

I nodded.

" Why are you here? " I asked

" Warner sent me. " she said

" And? " I said

" The Supreme is here. " she said

" Again, and? "

" And the Supreme wants to see you. "

" Any change I get more details? "

" Being called up by the Supreme is a privilege "

" Who is this Supreme? " I said

" The Supreme Commander of the Reestablishment. " she said

" He's like the ruler or something? "

" You'll see him soon enough, ask him. "

I stood up from my bed.

" Well, let's not keep him waiting. " I said

It looked like the whole army is going to lead me to the Supreme.

" Is the army necessary? " I asked Cas.

" Yes, you're pretty dangerous. "

" I am, am I? "

" Pretty much. "

" Great. "

We entered a room, and Warner is in it, waiting.

" You're dismissed, Lieutenant. " he said

Cas saluted and then went out.

" What's going on? " I said

" The Supreme wants to see you. "

" Yes, I know, Cas told me, but even though you mention him over and over, I have no idea what and who he is, I mean, I have been in lockdown for two years. "

" No one knows his face. "

" Then how will we know who he is? " I asked

I realized we were whispering.
