Missing You

"Don't tell me you have been really grumpy all day just because of Elias' absence, girl!" Katie said, and her eyes widened. 

"Wait, is there something you aren't telling me? Since when have you guys been so close for you to feel his absence this much?" She inquired with utter disbelief. 

"No, It's not like that. It's not as if I'm feeling his absence or we are that close, I just observed that he didn't come to school yesterday and his period has also passed this morning without him showing up. Since he started as a temp, he hasn't missed a class. Isn't that enough for us to worry about his absence?" Aurora pointed out.
