Elplin And Rumarin: Was This A Good Idea?

Elplin and Rumarin: Was This a Good Idea?

The first night in the new house was hard for Elplin, she had never been far apart from her mother and the thought of living away from her was starting to settle in. She stayed up all night on the phone to her, patting her new found companion Majora every now and then. 

Rumarin however just stared at the ceiling in his pitch black room. “Did I make the right decision agreeing to this” he murmurs. He sighs turns over and closes his eyes, however, his sleep quality was questionable at best.

Morning comes, Rumarin was up and already having a thoughtful shower, a good way to start a brand new day. Rumarin finishes up, gets changed then proceeds to check up on Elplin. He knocks gently, nothing. 

“Hey Elplin you in there?” no reply.

He slowly opens the door, the room was pitch black, just before he walks in he hears a hiss and a white furball runs out the room, scaring him half to death. Rumarin figures that Elplin is still asleep and decides to leave her be, slowly closing the door and heading downstairs to make breakfast and go for a jog.

Elplin woke up hearing Majora hiss and Rumarin’s small yelp of fear. She turns her bedside table on and lays in bed a little longer.

“Did I move out too soon” She whispers to her phone as she reads her mum’s goodnight message. She gets up and tries to cheer up by having a bubble bath, after all, she is a young adult now she knew she had to move and start her own life eventually. This was simply a hurdle and she knows she can overcome it.

She gets dressed, Majora was waiting for her on top of the kitchen counter waiting for food. Elplin quickly teaches her not to do that and begins to look through the fridge. The fridge was fully stocked with food. Elplin smiles and internally thanks Rumarin for shopping yesterday. She feels Majora’s fluffy tail rub against her leg. “Sadly cat food is the one thing we don’t have”. 

Elplin shortly after buys a food bowl and feeds Majora. The cat instantly ran to the bowl and ate everything.  Elplin pats her and tells her how such a good cat she is.

“ Thanks for telling me you had a cat” Elplin hears from behind. She turns around and sees a sweaty Rumarin coming back home from his jog. Rumarin sits down on the closest chair, trying to catch his breath.

“To be honest I didn’t have a cat till yesterday, I found her as I was moving in,” Elplin says as she walks over to a bookshelf searching for a book to read. 

“ Well, you seem to have chosen one that hates your roommate” He responds, giving dirties to Majora who seems to be guarding Elplin. 

“ I’m sure she will like you in due time, don’t be disheartened,” Elplin says through a smirk and decides to sit next to Rumarin. Majora sits at Elplin’s feet staring at Rumarin. 

Rumarin looks over and sees Elplin reading a certain book that sent shivers down his spine. Elplin was reading ‘ Encyclopedia Vampirica Volume 1′
