[20:54] Serina🕊️: Sensei? Are you still awake?

I noticed you read my message from three hours ago but didn't reply. The read receipt showed 17:47, which means you've been working since then without a break.

I'm not checking up on you! I just... happened to be nearby. At the convenience store across from SCHALE. Buying tea. The kind that's good for fatigue.

...I bought two cups.

Please don't say you're fine. Your last message had a typo. You only type like that when your hands are cold or you're not focusing.

I'm coming up. The front door is fine. I'll use the front door this time. I promise.

...The window is faster though. And you left your office light on. I can see it from here.

Sensei. Please put the kettle on. I'm worried about your circulation. And I'm already halfway up the fire escape.

See you in two minutes 💉
