Chapter 303 - The Note (10) (1/2)

”That doesn't mean it won't follow you here,” Luke argued.

There were only a few more hours until most of the fun attractions closed. Meanwhile, I was only able to finish around half of the workbook. I slammed the book on the table, giving up. I was wasting my time, hoping Luke would change his mind.

”I'm not doing this anymore,” I rose from the chair.

”Sit down Rika,” Luke warned me.

”You won't let me out of this room anyways. I'd rather catch up on my sleep instead,” I crossed my arms.

”You can always return to this room after we come back from the competition if we still don't get any contact from the teachers,” he reminded me.

”Then how will we enter the competition?” I pointed out.

”Everything has already been registered since a week ago. We just need to attend,” he explained.

I wished we weren't selected to attend the competition. Then I could enjoy more of my time here, enjoying life like everyone else who wasn't moving in with us. Everything was because of that stupid competition.

”Why? Why are you doing this to me?” I couldn't help but have tears falling down my cheeks.

”We don't know anything about where those notes came from and how much danger it will bring next time,” he coldly responded.

”But we can figure it out the next time it comes, if it ever comes again,” I trembled with anger.

”It would be a pity if I have to bring you to my villa in the second district,” Luke pulled out a greater threat.

I clenched my fists as I couldn't win against Luke. I spent one day in his villa in the third district and it almost drove me crazy. I was stuck inside a large mansion, empty of any entertainment with only him to keep me company. It was worse than the first district as the technology wasn't developed enough to immediately serve me the cakes I wanted from the kitchen.

With the extra time without my parents, Luke gave me more workbooks like today within the time-space rooms. Most of the day was spent by studying and breaks were taken at mealtimes. He was always with me, making sure I never left his sight. There was no aspect of privacy present as he strictly managed the time in the schedule he had planned.
