Noah stood before Professor Cecilia's office door, raised his hand and knocked.
"Come in," came her voice.
He pushed the door open and stepped inside.
Cecilia sat behind her desk, a cup of tea steaming gently beside the stack of papers she was reviewing.
He frowned at the sight, wondering if it was just a gimmick or if she was actually busy.
After all, every time he came here, she was always busy with documents.
She looked up, her golden eyes softening when she saw him.
"Noah. Good timing. Please, have a seat."
He nodded, taking the chair across from her.
She folded her hands neatly atop her desk. "I sent for you because I wanted to discuss your plans for the holidays."
Noah tilted his head slightly. "Plans?"
"Yes." She leaned back in her chair, the light from the window outlining her face.
"Most of your classmates will be spending their holiday in the capital or at home with their families."
