Joy

We go down for breakfast. Jerome, Mick and Alfie are already sitting on the dining chairs, clearly waiting for food. Mara is also there, reading a book. Patricia, well, she was still in our room. Amber must still be fixing her hair.

Hey guys, where's Fabes?

"I dunno", Mick answers, and adds, "When I woke up he was not in our room."

"Why are you so concerned about Fabian anyway?", Jerome says, looking at Alfie. "Oh yeah..." I see Jerome and Alfie high-five, and laugh.

Was it really that obvious?, I ask myself. Oh well, that's fine by me.

Soon Amber, then Patricia arrive at the dining table just as Trudy finishes cooking breakfast.

"Trudy, have you seen Fabes?", I ask.

"Hmm, not really, not since yesterday", she tells me.

"Well, that's odd...", Patricia observes.

Just then Victor enters the room. He announces, "Fabian has had an emergency and so he had to leave Anubis in such short notice." Well, that explains the sudden disappearance, I think to myself. But that does not explain why he has not contacted any of us yet about why he had to leave. Hmm, it must be something too confidential. Something does not seem right here, but I leave it to the back of my mind.

I finish breakfast, and go to our room to change, then I walk to school.
