--- Wellston Girls Dormitories, Seraphina's Room ---

Seraphina's POV

- "Sera, you're just a cripple."

- "What could you possibly help me anyway?"

Is the first thing I remember when I woke up.

Why I can't just forget about it?!

He made it clear last time.

How he felt about when he was hiding his ability.

I honestly didn't understand why he would do that.

But after that...

Anyone could've understood a reason like that.

And...

Honestly, I can't bring myself to blame him for that anymore.

He was right all along.

He had his reasons.

And I didn't respect that.

But I also wanted to know...

I didn't want to be left outside...

I didn't want to feel useless.

But I can't do anything about it.

I could've stopped him from hurting people.

If only I had my ability...

Maybe he would tell me that fact eventually...

No.

That... isn't useful right now.

Thinking about possibilities that didn't happen is not going to help me.

I need to focus on myself.

That is my priority.

So...

Right now, my priority is trying to get some info with Terrence.

Even if they are dangerous.

Even if I could get killed.

I need to get my ability back.

I don't have anything to lose now.

After thinking about this, I get up from my bed.

Look for my phone, and start to browse in my contacts for Isen and Arlo.

They can help me with this.

"Hey, I've planned to talk with Terrence about that issue today."

"So back me up when the time comes."

Is what I texted them.

I also noticed that the dorm is too quiet.

Elaine must have been got up earlier and went to class.

Also when I looked at the clock, it was 7:40 AM.

So I've overslept.

What a way to start the day.

Then, I notice that there are orange juice and some sandwiches with a note from Elaine on top.

"Sorry Seraphina, I had a huge test today, and you didn't wake up so I had to go. I left you breakfast done btw :D"

Okay...

Where does she get all those oranges in the first place...

But first I need to take a shower, get dressed, and look for my notebooks for class.
