But before you could do that, you’d have to pay Abel and Warren a little visit in the morning. After a quick nap…

Upon waking up, you hopped in the shower, threw your suit back on, made breakfast, grabbed a quick bite to eat and wrote Cindy a brief letter wishing her good luck on her exams. You were confident that her alarm would wake her before the food got cold, but it still left a bad taste in your mouth letting her wake up alone on such an important day.
There was nothing for it. If you didn’t leave right now, then you might be late to the party once Cindy was done with her exams. At the very least, you took comfort in knowing that you could make it up to her later.

It was a strange thing, showing up at ESU and wandering around campus in the early morning. A few people approached and greeted you as “Abel”, but you quickly corrected them by introducing yourself as his twin brother. That came as a surprise to them, but it wasn’t hard to see the family resemblance.
And that was how you found out your clone’s class schedule. It was shockingly easy to blend into a college campus that you weren’t even attending, but you supposed that having the same face as one of their students helped you in that regard.
It was a bit exhausting, having to bullshit your way out of explaining your and Abel’s complex history, but it was also sort of entertaining to create subtle social traps for him to fall into later when he’d least expect it. You had to get your kicks somehow.
When you’d finally gotten bored with that, you decided to wait outside of his lecture hall for him. After only a few more minutes, class had finally let out, and students started pouring out of the room at a staggering rate. Whatever the lecture had been, it was clearly anything but entertaining.
A minute later, when the halls had cleared a bit, and when people finally stopped asking you how you got in front of them so quickly, Abel strode out of the room with a gorgeous redhead at his side.
She wore expensive makeup and even more expensive clothing. A green ruffled top, and some tight-fitting designer jeans that accentuated her slightly curvy figure. When Abel saw you, he froze for a moment, and then made some lame excuse to get the girl to go on without him.
The redhead gave you a long assessing look as she walked past, and you couldn’t help but think that she was taking the opportunity to check her out. You did the same, but in a far more subtle way. Your ogling was cut short when Abel walked up to you, looking a bit peeved in your opinion.
<span class="mu-b">“What are you doing here?”</span> he asked, sounding slightly impatient.
