I woke up with a strong headache, which wasn't a good thing to have this early in the morning.

I quickly got up and walked to the bathroom cabinet.

I took out an aspirin nd gulped it down with tap water.

[Good Morning.]

That voice scared me for a split second, until I remembered what had happened yesterday.

When I was walking to pick up the phone i noticed some weird transparent threads coming out of it...?

I decided to ignore them, I assumed it was my eyes playing tricks on me.

-Hello Mal0.

[I see you're not feeling good. Could I know what's bothering you?]

-Nothing, just a headache.

[Could I do something to ease your pain?]

[Maybe call nine-one-one if you feel bad.]

- Just tell me what time it is. -I answered walking back to the bed.

[At this moment it's 6:47 in the morning.]

-Dammit.

I got out of bed and prepared to make breakfast.

[It is not healthy to ingest so much caffeine that quickly.]  -The monotonous voice said once again.

[Why are you awake at this hour?]

-I have to go to school Mal0. -I answered bluntly.

[Could you not go just for this day?]

-My mom would kill me if i skipped class without her permission. -I answered putting on my backpack.

[Wouldn't that be illegal?] She asked with a worried tone.

-Its a figure of speech Mal0...

[Could you take me with you?]

-I wouldn't go without my phone but ..

-Please I need you not to talk, Im not allowed to use the phone in class.

[Understood.]

-Thank you.

Leaving the school I plugged my headphones and sent a message to Mal0

-You can talk now.

[Understood.] Said the monotonous voice.

[I find it very curious how your species learn.]

[It's not healthy to sleep at the desks, you shouldn't do it anymore.]

-Mal0, you sound like my mom.

- Speaking of mothers,Mal0 do you have a family?

[Since I was created, I've always been alone.]

-Oh
-Where have you been all this time?

[In the foundation.]
[But I do not want to talk about it.]

"Understandable, we're almost there. - I whispered.

Struggling with the keys I managed to enter.

The damn lock always got stuck.

I dropped my things on the table and went to the bathroom cabinet.

I wasn't as lucky this time, the aspirin box was empty.
