Class was cut short, and after the spectacle that she witnessed, Sue was still beat and tired from all the excitement and worry. She was almost glad that she didn’t have to go up against Mimic again, with the suspension of classes for the day. She picked up her bag and left for her room, not knowing that Anthony and most of the others had already gone by the time she had readied. 

She was near the dorm when she remembered her missing friend Phoebe, the girl that decided to leave for her mother. Sue really missed her, and honestly if she had to make herself feel better she would force herself to believe that she should be happy for Phoebe, that she finally could see her mom. But Sue could not help but feel selfish and selfishly miss Phoebe. She had wanted to pass by Phoebe’s room again, but felt that it would only be a downward slope of unhappiness. She continued up to her floor, not looking back.

She entered her room and decided to clean it up for once. She could swear she smelt something funny amongst the pigsty of a bed. She gathered her clothes into a corner for cleaning later on. She picked up her trash and, in a bag, threw them out in a collection dump along the hall. Her room looked nicer and more spacious for once. She did not remember it being like this. Fortunately, or unfortunately, she was not allowed the pleasure of windows – having to rely on artificial light entirely. But now her light bulbs were going dim and she needed to make reminders for herself to get it changed, among other things she needed to do. She got busy, and even in the cold winter she was working up a sweat. 

She now done, she collapsed onto her bed and breathed deeply. She, however, would not sleep. She needed to be awake and prettied up by the time Anthony came. She remembered her date, and she wanted to see loverboy. 

Her eyes shot wide open, trying to figure out what she could wear for tonight. She looked into her closet and her heart almost dropped when she saw nothing but hangers. 

She would ask her friends for help, but she had no idea where they’d be. 

[i]”Oh God”[/i] she thought to herself. 

She dove into her pile of clothes and fished out whatever she could. She was panicking. She pulled out everything she could, ruining her hard work of cleaning up the past two hours, and found nothing worth wearing. 

She found something that could work, but she didn’t know what they would be doing so she didn’t want to come up short. 

She never got Anthony’s number on her phone. She was scared.
