He was in a total state of panic and felt as if something bad had happened. Ella awoke from her sleep when Lucas yelled at her. "Ella, wake up and get your ass out of the bed!" "What the fuck, Lucas?" Ella's voice was raspy. She turns away from him and covers herself with a blanket, attempting to sleep again. "Fuck off," she yelled, "it's too early, and I've got plenty of time to sleep." "Did you notice the pantry in the kitchen?" Lucas enquired. Ella jumped out of bed when she remembered the groceries Edward had purchased the day before.

Flashback to five years ago at San Lorenzo Convent... "Lydia, I'd like to introduce you to Sister Lucinda. In this convent, she will be your roommate," Mother Superior Belinda said to Lydia. Lydia took a look around and assessed the condition of the room. It's a good size, with two single beds and a side bed drawer in between that serves as a partition. There was a built-in cupboard on each side of the beds, as well as a study table beside it.
