Now I just have to wait. And see the level of trouble that I was in. I left the window, because the beautiful scenery I was enjoying just moments ago suddenly seemed to dull into a lifeless gray. An intense sense of dread settled deep into my bones, and my mouth suddenly had a bitter taste. Where the hell was Keira? I could use her moral support. Isn't she supposed to drop by before going to work, or maybe she isn't here because she's running late already as usual, so she's heading straight to work? Great, I'm going to be the one to give myself moral support. I shoulder deflated miserably. The universe knows that I need her now, more than ever. I chewed on my bottom lip, my fingers were fidgeting restlessly. I paced around the room, expecting the doors to crash open anytime soon.
