"Okay." my dad replied. I took a deep breath before leaving and tried to calm down. I was now calm and opened the door. I walked down the familiar hallway and looked for Duncan's apartment number. I finally found it at the end of the hall with a dull, flickering light above the door. I knocked on the door and I waited. The door opened after about 5 minutes. It was Duncan.
