I’d stopped back at my room for a breather from all the social interaction, but soon I heard the click of a door, to my right this time. If I remembered correctly, that would be… Yusra, next door? I hadn’t gotten a chance to talk to her much– when she wasn’t helping Riko look for an escape route, she mostly kept to her room. Was she really doing okay?
After a few moments to gather my thoughts, I left the room and knocked on her door. She answered with a polite smile.
Her blunt response caught me off guard, but she didn’t sound upset, either? She closed the door quickly behind her and walked past me down the hallway. I followed, not sure what to make of her reaction thus far.
She got to the library well before I did, and sat down primly in one of the chairs by the fake fireplace. She watched me carefully as I sat across from her, fidgeting with one of her rings as she spoke.
