The Mark Of Punishment.

Night.

Male Employed Quarters, Theodore Mansion.

Critic Arley, Critic-Ishire.

*******************

The twins have a habit of sitting out Infront of their building in the night before going inside. They would gaze at nothing in particular and talk about whatever comes in between.

This night is not any different, Gabriel and Tom are seated on the front steps of their mansion in quite and differing thoughts. They hadn't been able to attend the meeting or join in the dining hall but it was a feast with them all the way.

"Gab! I have good news" Tom broke the silence.

Tom shifted, his attention now on his brother. "I am all ears"

Tom took his time, prompting Gabriel to press his lips at the prolonged silence.

"We have a teacher!" Tom yelled the triumphantic announcement with a proud smile and a tinge of expectancy in his eyes.

Gabriel stared at him, deadpanned.
