The day passed much faster than they had expected. At eight, they were ordered to return to their rooms by a mechanical voice.
Skyy leaned close to Kyle. "I pray that they have a maintenance day soon," he mumbled ever so softly to his ear. "I'll miss you,"
They were allowed to roam free only once every 27 days, but on maintenance day, they were all freed to check the safety features of their rooms. It was like a rare holiday for them. the maintenance team checks the floor every three months or so. this month it was likely they will have one.
Kyle gently pinched his cheeks. "Yeah, I'll miss you, don't get sick. Exercise well okay,"
Skyy nodded.
But as his best friend was about to leave, he grabbed his hand tightly. "Wait,"
Kyle confusedly looked his way. "The third alarm is going to ring. We have to leave Skyy."
