I heard my curtains being zapped open but I remained wrapped around my blanket not feeling the need to get up. I didn't have a wink of sleep after what happened, I couldn't possibly find sleep, I kept replaying my encounter with William last night, I can't get the scene out of my head as well as the words he said to me. I had no idea why I felt hurt by that, it didn't make sense at all, I have heard worse when I was cast aside and called an omen… this just hurts differently for a reason I can't describe.
More importantly, I kept thinking of his sad eyes… they hurt deeper than the words he said to me.
"Young miss"
I heard Elvenia behind me with her usual stoic tone. "It's time to get up"
I said nothing and remained where I was without moving.
"Are you sick?"
Another silence and then a sigh came off her, well that was new.
"Elvenia" I began.
"Yes, young miss?"
"Why does the master wear a mask?"
