"SECOND PLACE REN? THAT'S ALL? YOU'RE A DISGRACE! DON'T BOTHER COMING HOME TONIGHT."
"I'm sorry, it wont happen again I promise!" Ren yelled as he shot out of bed. Just a dream? Remembering he was in his dorm, his head shot to his left. Empty, thank god. That would have been embarrassing! He didn't think his roommate, if he even had one, would appreciate the noise this early. He rubbed his eyes and stretched. Sitting up, he shivered. Not from the cold, but from that dream. No matter how many times he had that dream he always reacted the same. He woke up yelling apologies or crying more often than not. The memories were old, but it kept the pain fresh.
That was his life before this place, a life filled with stress, constantly having to please someone. He couldn't stand it, so he jumped at the opportunity to come to Silver Cross. Anything to get away from that. But, the past is the past for a reason. No need to dwell on it. Ren thought standing up from his bed. He started to prepare for the day. He hoped it would go better than the wake up call he had this morning.
