I resist the urge to roll my eyes when I feel the phone vibrate nonstop inside my pocket. At least I remembered to turn it to silent before leaving or everyone would be staring at me right now.

My sister's name fills my notifications with her text messages.

ALESSANDRA: Did you find a place to stay?

ALESSANDRA: Helloooo?

ALESSANDRA: I'm still waiting for that answer, Dominic. Are you going to answer me?

ALESSANDRA: Please tell me you found a place to stay and are not lying dead in a ditch somewhere.

ALESSANDRA: I'm sending out a search party.

"Fucking hell," I mutter and type my response.

ME: No need to send out a search party. I'm alive and well. I did find a place to stay.

ALESSANDRA: Are you going to tell me where?

ME: I'm staying at Andre's house for the time being.

ALESSANDRA: Andre's house? With Desiree too?

ME: Yes. Why do you ask?

ALESSANDRA: No reason.

She ends the conversation by telling me that she's glad I'm okay and found somewhere to stay. Although, I do think Alessandra was surprised when she heard who I was staying with. I'm not sure why either.

I'm currently sitting on a gray colored couch and waiting for Desiree's class to finish. She told me the class is ninety minutes long. An hour has already passed which means there are only thirty minutes left.

I haven't been doing anything other than sitting, responding to emails from Alessandra, and occasionally making eye contact with students who walk past me.
