Chapter 33

"I'm fine." I said after double-checking. "I don't need to go yet."

"Alright." the Elf said. "This way."

She guided Alyssa through a hallway into the apartment.

I let out a long sigh. Looking around, I found a clock and spent a few seconds figuring the time. Someone invent digital clocks already! You have toilet seats! It was four ten.

I walked around the apartment, looking at the paintings. They were mostly abstract art I had no way to recognize. Some might even be real monsters. I chuckled at the notion of a diamond shape monster with smoke for legs, but shivered at the possible existence of such a being.
