In the end, you quietly accept what he says and give up trying. You can't change his mind, and you can't really go against his will either. Perhaps this is for the best; perhaps you need to do what he says and continue to obey the instructions you've been given. Besides, after walking around a little bit, you're getting tired. The yawn you let out while you stand up proves it. Like yesterday, it should be really easy for you to fall asleep. Paco stands up as well, coming to you, taking your hand.


"Come on, Dione", he urges you. "Be a good girl and take my hand."


You let him lead you quietly back to the room. Before you can open the door though, he lays his hand on the handle and kneels next to you, looking you dead in the eye, smiling.


"One more thing, Dione", he says. "I need you to promise something."


You nod preemptively, before you even get the chance to hear what you need to promise.


"It's okay for you to wake up Lisa, or some other older roommate of yours if you need to pee or poo, and you're afraid or unsure about where to go, but don't walk around at nights anymore in the places where you're not supposed to be in. I know it's hard since you're curious, but it's for your own good, and for the good of every other boy and girl living here. Do you understand?"


"I promise", you reply. This time, you mean it.


He gives you a playful stroke on top of your head, complimenting you. "Good girl. Now, go to sleep."


You politely wish him good night as he allows you to go back inside. You go to sleep immediately. You have no trouble falling asleep now.
