Late at night Cecelia heard a knock at the door She quickly threw on a robe and went to open it Who s there
Standing outside was Wendy
Wendy wasn t carrying anything except for the pale yellow vest that Glinda had given her With awry smile Wendy looked at Cecelia and said Cecelia I have nowhere else togo Can you take mein
Cecelia immediately pulled her inside Noticing how cold Wendy s hands were Cecelia gently rubbed them Wendy what happened Why are you out hereby yourself so late It s not safe
Wendy gave a faints mile Today Jessica threw herself down the stairs and told Stanley he couldn t share a room with me so I was kicked out
Cecelia froze for a moment then quickly pulled Wendy into a hug Damn those two
Her eyes reddened as her voice caught in her throat How could they treat you like this
The next day Wendy went to Clave n dale University to register Cyril had already arranged everything so it went smoothly She was placed in the medical department Class 12
Wendy satin the back row alone The students around her were friendly and they introduced themselves

“ProfessorLincolnrarelygiveslecturesthesedays.Theyaddedthislecture atthelastminute.We’resolucky!”TheprofessortheyweretalkingaboutwasWendy’sapprentice,Cyril.
Wendy hadn t slept well last night and she was starting to feel the weight of exhaustion She yawned and rested her head on the desk trying to catch some sleep
Before long the once noisy classroom became silent The students quickly settled into their seats as Cyril had arrived
Cyril was highly respected both in the medical community and at Clave n dale University so he carried a natural authority with him As he walked to the front of the room he scanned the students He was looking for Wendy
This lecture had been added just for her
Stanley was his nephew and he had heard all about this wife of his He was even more curious since Stanley had personally asked for his help because of her
Cyril cleared his throat Is Wendy the new student here
A few students pointed in her direction Professor Lincoln Wendy is over there

Cyril followed their gaze and spotted Wendy asleep with her head on the desk
Hepaused.
Since she was his nephew s wife Cyril felt he should show some respect He walked down from the podium and stood next to Wendy He cleared his throat again louder this time
Still Wendy was so tired that she remained in a deep sleep and didn t stir
Cyril sighed.
He reluctantly tapped on the desk which woke Wendy up
She blinked her eyes still groggy and looked up at Cyril through her half closed eyes
