~Ding~Dong~Ding~Dong~Ding~Dong~
The doorbell rang again… and again… like a fly flying over the ear all the time.
Raphael groaned beneath her blanket, her ears twitching in irritation as the noise refused to stop.
"Ugh…" she mumbled, her eyes fluttering open. Her brows pulled into an annoyed frown.
"Give me a break…" she muttered, her voice hoarse with drowsiness. She reached blindly for her glasses on the side table, sliding them on before swinging her legs over the edge of the bed. Her body moved reluctantly, muscles groaning along with her as she padded across the cool floor, barefoot, grumbling under her breath.
As she descended the stairs, the living room lay in dim silence. The lights hadn't been turned on.
She blinked through her tired haze, muttering, "Where did he go?"
Then she remembered.
Leo.
He said that he was going to Ophis's place.
