Rufus' POV:
I was in a meeting the entire morning. By the time it finished, it was almost noon.
The first thing I did after was to take my phone out to call Sylvia. I wanted to ask her out for lunch.
To my surprise, it seemed that Sylvia had tried to call me earlier, but she was supposed to be in class at that time.
I immediately got a strange feeling in my stomach. Did she mistakenly press the call button?
I called her back but there was no answer. I was beginning to get uneasy, so I called Blair. He didn't pick up either.
At this time, the bell tower rang two times in the distance. I remembered that it was still supposed to be class time. That was probably why Blair didn't answer.
"Prince Rufus, I have a document for you to sign here." A senator walked up to me holding a pen and paper.
I haphazardly signed my name and gave it back, rushing to my car right after and heading to the school to look for Blair.
Sure enough, Blair was indeed in class. He was surprised to see me.
"What are you doing here?" Blair smiled and walked over, patting me on the chest. "You don't usually come to see me in school."
I was not exactly in the mood to joke around. I turned my eyes to his class on the training grounds. No Sylvia.
"Where's Sylvia?"
"Sylvia? I thought she was sick. Didn't she tell you?" Blair was confused.
"Sick? She was just fine yesterday. How could she suddenly get sick?" I grew anxious. My calm demeanor faded at the very thought that something bad happened to Sylvia.
"I'm just as confused as you are. She was pretty fine during morning exercise today. But Flora just said that she was sick." Blair also began to worry. "Maybe we should call the dorm administrator first."
I nodded as Blair went to phone the administrator.
He dialed and rang the number several times, but it seemed no one was there to answer the phone. My patience was thinning. I turned to him and said, "I'll go to Sylvia's dorm room myself and check."
