New roommate?

"What happened?" "Oh, just a trip and fall." "I'll get a bandage you wait here." 2 minutes later she came back with some bandages kept around for times like this…

Sapphire's perspective…

The self-bashing hadn't stopped, I just didn't show it. Why did she have to come here now of all times, especially here! She came back with the bandages. "Oh no I can do it myself please don't worry about it." She gave me a suspicious look. "Okay." As I was wrapping the bandages I asked her the question on the tip of my tongue.

"Why are you here?" "I was just about to get to that." She said in slight annoyance "What happened to your friend I know she died but how?" She hit me with a question I didn't want to think about. "And why is Brian so sad over someone he knew for a month? it's not like she was important to him." It makes me angry she is talking about Kyla like she didn't exist, like she is irrelevant. I gritted my teeth I couldn't stand a chance against an advisor nor get on one of their unpleasant sides.

"Because… Go ask Brian if he trusts you, he'll tell you." I began then stopped it wasn't my sentence to speak nor my secret to tell. She looked at me in annoyance. "But how did she die?" "Humph, go to the infirmary and ask for nurse Joy she'll tell you." I am still annoyed at her insensitive question if she wants to not respect my dead friend she doesn't deserve to have any answers from me. "Oh, and she was very important to him."

"I answered all of your questions leave," I said with a cold voice. "One more question." "What!" The anger leaking into my voice. She looked a bit shocked at the sudden change in tone. "What does Brian see in you? Why are you his only friend?" "I dunno one day he walked up to me and said, "You seem kinda lost."." "That's it?"

"No, but the other time wasn't really a meeting as I didn't know his name, nor could I actually see him," I explained. "Please get out of my dorm," I said, irritated that she walked in without permission, then asked me a bunch of questions without even a thank you.

She got up and left the apartment. My guilt once again sat at the front of my mind so I decided to meditate on my core. Hoping that the sight of my core would erase the memories I wanted to forget most from the front of my head.

I meditated for hours and hours and hours I had no concept of time constantly refining my core without even a shred of sleep. Until *knock *knock *knock I am in a terrible mood. "What the fuck do you want!" "It's your new roommate." A new roommate? Why? I don't want a new roommate. It'll just end up like Kyla. What's going on? Everyone should be assigned a room already.

Suddenly, the lock turned. I looked at the time and date. 4 days had passed. "Ugh, I need a shower." I rushed to the shower and took at least 20 minutes. When I came out with a towel on my head I saw the familiar girl.

My mouth opened "Leona?" "Hello." She responded. "Uh hello can I assume you're my new roommate?"
