"I'm home…"

Pushing the door open, Zio was greeted by the short, narrow entrance of his dorm room. Walking through, he jumped onto his bed and let the softness sink in. 

But, when he thought he could have an immediate sleep, Reina's sweet voice resounded in his ears.

"Master!"

Lifting his face with force, he looked to his right, his cheek still pressed against the bed.

Zio watched as Reina approached him with heavy yet soundless footsteps from the sofa where he had left her this morning, her face contorted into an angry yet cute pouting face.

But, his attention was soon stolen by the view of the night sky outside the closed windows.

The moon hanging on the starless sky lit brightly, making a great display above the city skylines. On top of that, the addition of artificial snow that poured down slowly on the city added a feel of serenity and calm, as if hinting that something bigger was about to happen sooner or later.
