Dion woke up in his room on Earth and slowly sat up.
'While am I here?' Dion thought, his mind still groggy. He blinked in confusion and finally remembered everything.
He jumped from the bed. 'I was drinking with Tor and I fell asleep. Well, they will think I am drunk, not knowing I've left them.'
'No school today, so what should I do?' He rubbed his chin in contemplation.
He snapped his fingers and said, "I need to get a house. Staying in the house and void shuttling is risky with Rabbit as my neighbor. Nobody knows what that crazy lady will do because of her hunch. I need to stay far away."
So, Dion spent the day browsing through a list of houses to buy before settling for a portable two-bedroom flat bungalow with a wide basement on a regular but safe street. He made sure not to be too high profile but he already made up his mind to say Karen lend him the money if his funds ever got investigated. What are friends for?
