End Of Semester (XXVIII)
It took me a while to reach the academy.
Eleonora's house wasn't that far, but I still had enough time to enjoy the quiet streets and the soft glow of the night sky.
The air was cool, carrying the faint scent of flowers from the academy gardens. It was peaceful.
When I arrived at the academy gates, I pulled out my ID card and swiped it.
Beep!
A small beep sounded, and the gates slid open automatically.
Without a second thought, I stepped through and made my way toward my dormitory.
As soon as I reached my door, I turned the knob and pushed it open.
"…I'm back."
I muttered softly, not wanting to wake anyone up if they were asleep.
The dorm was quiet, just as I expected. I took off my jacket and hung it on the coat hook before slipping off my shoes with a tired sigh.
"Phew..."
The living room was empty.
