FIELD NOTE 5.80 - Missing roommate.

It is now 0h12 and one of my roommate's has been gone since 18h30. He said he would be going for a short walk and that he would be back soon. That was 6 hours ago.
I realize that the 4 of us living here haven't known each other long and the span of time hasn't been enough to allow unbreakable bonds of friendship to be formed; however, I feel that 3 days of rushing through the metro together and endless hours of orientation when coupled with a few conversations do breed a certain level of trust.
At our orientation we were told the emergency number to call, but we were told not to call it if it was something that they couldn't fix. Not knowing what to do, we emailed a prof and were told not to worry until the morning.
So I guess if the morning comes and he's not here, then there's a problem. But until then there are 3 of us in this apartment all listening attentively for the sound of opening doors and turning locks. Not a fun way to spend a night...
