Kapitel 105: Tiptoeing to him

Though every person in Veteris was celebrating its last day of the Fall Annual, Julie and her friends were not only devastated on hearing about Reese's death, but they were shocked on seeing the state of her body.

Julie and her friends returned to Melanie's dorm, where Conner had taken a seat on the bed, while Melanie tried to console him. But there was very little anyone could say or do in such an unexpected death, and silence hung in the dorm. 

It wasn't just Reese's death that Julie thought about, but also what Caleb had informed her about Roman. She only hoped for him to be alright and that he wasn't being tortured, wherever the management had kept him now. 

"I should probably go back to my dorm and try to get some sleep," said Conner, standing up from the edge of the bed. He wiped his face with both his hands.
