Kell didn’t know how long he sat there. He lost his sense for time. Suddenly there were faint steps. Maybe someone had finally come to help him downstairs. He slowly half-opened his eyes to see a familiar face. The girl who switched glasses with him. He fully opened his eyes and struggled to sit up.
“Oh don’t bother, sweetheart”, she purred, looking down at him with a smile on her lips. She really was beautiful. Her dark hair had a red shimmer, and her eyes were painted to even look bigger.
“You drugged me”, Kell said weakly.
“I did not. I simply gave you a glass of water. It is not my problem if you were so naïve to drink it.”
“Why did you do this?” Kell asked. His speech was slurred and he was pretty sure he was going to throw up some time soon.
The girl crouched down next to him. He could smell her perfume. Thick and too sweet. She looked him up and down before she whispered her answer. “Before you came here, I was Oryn’s favourite bird. His Robin.” She paused and her smile widened. “There can be only one of us. And I will not stop picking on you until you won’t be able to sing anymore.”
She looked at him for two more seconds as if to make sure he understood. Then she smiled brightly and got up. “Oh and by the way: Oryn is really angry you are still not downstairs.” She gave him a wave with the tips of her fingers.
He could hear her humming while her footsteps faded.
