"Argh," Ren groaned as he turned in his bed. One more twist and his head would be diving down for the floor, dragging his entire body down.
There's this reaction one has when they feel real comfort after years of lacking it, and they are exhausted. What he did in the seclusion room had really taken a toll on him. Even his eyes still looked like they would rather remain shut the whole day.
Duff was on his nails as usual, watching Ren casually sit up on his bed.
"Coby left. You were sleeping like a dead wood."
"What? Left to where?"
"You're in survival department, right? He left for classes."
Ren grunted and grabbed his head.
"I mean, I told you guys right? I bet you and Coby have that one thing in common."
"What about you?"
Duff licked the tip of his nails and admired it for one long second.
"I joined Heroes' Act. I have no time for such stress. We only have classes on select days."
Ren watched him while he arranged his nail file into a small box.
