Julie turned her head to her left side, seeing the little light that came from outside, passing through the cracks of the curtains into the dorm. Music played from her phone, which laid next to her head. She heard the sound of the soft keys of the piano that filled the room. Today will be a new day, and it will be better than the other days, she said to herself. When she got ready and left the dorm, she met Melanie in the corridor of the girl's Dormitorium, who was locking her room. "Good morning,"…-

Music Recommendation: The End - November Ultra . The Freshman and Sophomore students stared at Roman, who disappeared up the stairs, while Mateo was on the floor with bruises over his face. Mateo glared at the ones who were looking his way, "What are you looking at? Scram from here!" Being humiliated in front of the lower grade students, especially the humans whom Mateo had bullied before, rage-filled his face. Getting up from where he had been sitting, he went inside his room. Rummaging through…

Music Recommendation: Bad Guy- Billie Eilish . Julie sat at one of the tables during dinner while Melanie and Conner had gone to get food, including hers. She pulled the end of her sweater's sleeves to hide her wrists, a habit that had continued even now. In the back of her mind, she was worried that the porcupine would do something worse than what he had done today on the stage. Subconsciously, her arms hugged her as if to provide herself with comfort. "It looks like you aren't suited for…

After Julie stepped inside the Dormitorium, she went straight to her dorm as Melanie was still attending classes where there were two more to go. Roman had made her walk all around the forest of Willow Creek, and she was tired. Tired of walking, of having the alien scare her to death and the spider that she had tried to maintain distance from. She was glad that Roman had not insisted on making her hold his beloved pet's child. But then Julie realized it would be unlike him to force her. Sure he liked to…

Julie stared at the liquor bottle where Roman had emptied three-fourth of it. Walking to the table, she picked up the jug of water and poured it into it until it filled near the bottle's neck. She tightened the cap so that no one would be suspicious about it. Going back to the hall, she opened the cabinet and placed it inside, positioning it behind the other bottles so that Mr. Davis wouldn't open it at least until she would get a chance to replace it on her next visit. Closing the cabinet, she…

Music Recommendation: Gone - Trafton . Julie was fast asleep when her phone started to vibrate on the nightstand continuously. It made a whirring sound, waking her up, and she turned to look at the clock to see it was one in the morning. Her hand reached for the phone, and when she read the name, she frowned. Why was Roman calling her at this hour of the night? She wondered if he had decided to bully her by not letting her sleep again. Answering the phone, she asked, "Hello?" Julie's voice…

Julie stared at the words that were written in the text message. Of course, she knew she wasn't at her home because she didn't have one, or more precisely to be told, it had turned into a house of horror for her. 'Julianne.' Reading the line over and over again, Julie's hands slowly started to turn cold, and her face turned pale as if blood drained from her face. It couldn't be, said Julie in her mind. The only person apart from her who would go to that house was her father. She locked the phone,…

Even though Julie didn't knock down all the pins, there was a bright smile on her face as it was the very first time she had ever hit so many pins with one ball. There was amusement in Roman's eyes, and she saw him stare at her for two seconds before he shook his head. Roman went to sit on one of the benches, and Julie walked back to where Melanie stood, looking like she was trying to fix her jaw to her face that had fallen from shock. "We are going to get something to drink," said Melanie to…

Julie sat in the corner, which was next to Roman. The lights in the theatre hadn't turned off as people continued to enter, looking for their seats. She hadn't expected to sit next to Roman, not that she minded as she had turned comfortable in his presence. Roman had pulled out his phone, scrolling through the screen as he read something. Not having anyone else to talk to as he was busy, Julie picked up her Pepsi cup and took a sip from it before she dived into the puff pastry. She tried hard not to let…
