Goals To Achieve

Throughout the short break, Ray never talked to anyone. He was locked up in his room, not eating or drinking anything, Blades on countless occasions knocked on the door but Ray wouldn't answer him. At last, Blades gave up and decided to let him be on his own.

On the day that they were to go back to school, Ray finally did open the door. Blades and Mao upon seeing him gaped at his sight, he looked ghostly and pale and when they tried talking to him, he shunned them and walked past them.

He walked to the outside and stood there on a spot, after standing for long he turned around and walked back inside.

"Are you two coming with me or not?" 

Mao, the moment she heard what Ray said quickly went over to where he was standing and sat on his shoulder. "Ray, are you now okay?" There was a worried look on her face that made her look sad, Ray saw this and gave out a short pale smile.
