What do you decide?

Stay as Vanessa.

Hey why not stay as her? At least for a night....

You decided that Vanessa could rest a little longer while you get to know her a little better. You once again open the bathroom's door and gather your clothes along with the tools you brought with yourself.

One more look through Vanessa's memories made you remember that she is supposed to check on everything in the library before she leaves. You decide to quickly go through this check up.

Trash bins? Check. Cash register? Check. Water cooler? Wouldn't need a refill for a day or two. Bathroom? Eeeeeh, I'll make Vanessa did this mess on her own and decided to fix it tomorrow. As for everything else...... it seems in order.

As you finish with the preparations for the closing of the library, you remember the crucial thing. Your family doesn't know where are you.

Shit.... I need to call them so they wouldn't freak out.

You stand behind the tall bookshelf and take out your phone from jacket. You try to unlock it using the finger print lock. Dumbass.

Oh.... Fuck. No shit Sherlock, I'm Vanessa right now.

So you unlock with ol' reliable, the graphic lock. Once the phone is unlocked you navigate yourself to the recent calls where the needed contacts located. As get ready to call, a slight reminder of different persona you now own rings the bell. You hear your mouth produce an idle sound with Vanessa's voice.

Damn, I need my original voice..... What if.....

A suggestion appeared in your mind. You put a finger in your mouth and begin to pull it. Surprisingly, Vanessa's mouth stretches and unstick from yours.

"Mike check, mike check."You say in your own voice.

Heh. It worked!

Phone is back to your hand and you call Anna. Few beeps later, she answers.

"Hey, Peter, where are you? It's night already!" She says with the worry in her voice.

"I just went to the library to meet up with a friend." You say, with nothing unusual in your speech. "I'll probably stay with them until tomorrow, don't worry. Please, tell the others I'm staying at the sleepover."

Anna doesn't say a thing for a moment and then goes. "Fine, but you better return home tomorrow! You have a job to do after all."

"Don't sweat it, I'll go there right from friends house. Moreover they also wake up early, so I wouldn't be late."

"Ugh... fine. Take care of yourself, Love you." She says.

"Love you too." You say as you hang up your phone.

Now that the call is done, time to get back to being Vanessa. You pull Vanessa's loose mouth and free it. It snaps against your face at sets itself in the right place.

"Mike check, mike check." Sweet Vanessa's voice once again teases your hearing.

Well... You are ready to depart! You take your stuff, turn the lights off, exit the library and lock the door behind you. From memories of Vanessa you gather the location of her apartment. It's a small flat right in between her two jobs. Church and library. The walk takes about 10 minutes for you to arrive to her place. It's a 9 story building made of brick. It looks like the ones that were built in United Kingdom during Victorian age. You enter the building and proceed to go up to your floor. Vanessa lives on the 5th floor in the little flat to the right of the stairs. You open the door to her apartment with her keys. You step inside.

The first thing you notice is a smell. The air of this place is filled with scent of paper and something starchy. You go deeper inside as you close the front door and lock it. Apart from thin hall with neatly hanging outdoor clothes and shoes, the first room you see is a kitchen. It not spacious but comfy. Small cooking stove, old fridge, vintage wooden drawers and cabinets. The window to the street is lively decorated with house flora and part of it is closed by the ivy. You go further inside Vanessa's place and appear in the bedroom. It's quite bigger than kitchen but still medium at best. The style of the interior is minimalistic. Walls are painted in dark blue. There a few white night stands, two big bookshelves, a single window with blinds and couple of biblical crosses hanging on the walls.

Well... nun is a nun....

As you admire the view of _your _room you pay attention to 2 doors near each other. You open the furthest one and meet the bathroom of the place. Nothing too ambitious. Although you notice a little shelf near the toilet filled with some kind of boxes. You didn't pay much attention to them nevertheless. Then you open the second door. It's a closet of our Vanessa. However there isn't much to look at. There are a few sets of her ordinary and nun clothes. Well.... that's sad.

What now?
