Roomie Telepathy
Originally, we considered it a joke. I mean, telepathy? In this world? No way... But still, that couldn't stop us from feeling it to some extent. The compatibility of roomies for us scholars soon became how fast it took us to achieve roomie telepathy.
But I never felt it so hard before. My current roomie, Ayto, and I, have achieved a new record for fastest ever roomie telepathy ever achieved that we know of. Three weeks. It exists. I'm serious. We complete each other's sentences, we know what each other is doing no matter where we are, we know where the other is, and we feel the resonance in our heads when we're near each other.
Take yesterday, for example. Ayto was sick, so he wasn't in school. When I stepped into the school, I immediately felt a suffocating feeling that I couldn't explain, like my brain had half of it missing. My mind felt closed, like there was something missing from my whole physical structure.
During lunch, the feeling subsided for a second, and I reflexively reached for my phone. As I laid my eyes on it, an sms from my roomie arrived. And it was right there and then that I realised that the feeling was caused by the absence of my dear roomie. He slept through the whole day until I came back except to sms me once, and that's why his mind was closed to me, and I couldn't feel it.
Can't believe it? Live in a hostel with a person you click with incredibly well as your roomie, and witness roomie telepathy for yourself.
