I slept obediently until the morning.

The next morning was like every other morning-the same blue sky, the same white clouds, and even the chirping of birds outside the window seemed to be the same.

At the same time, it was different from the other mornings.

The reason was because of the good news that I received. It almost made me faint in my excitement.

At seven in the morning, I was about to leave for college with Colin after having breakfast, and Queenie and Andrew were washing dishes in the kitchen. That was when the professor called me. Recently, I would get a headache whenever I saw anyone or anything related to the professor. So, the early morning call not only gave me a headache but also had the potential to ruin my entire day. Professor King was really up to something.

Colin gave me a look to encourage me to pick up the call, but I shook my head to show my resistance and flipped the phone over onto the couch.
