The membership prices caught my eye, and I let out a low whistle.
They were at least three times higher than the average gym membership. Clearly, this wasn't your run-of-the-mill Pilates studio.
I quickly messaged her again.
[Me: Great. See you tomorrow.]
[Allie: Message me when you get there.]
Satisfied that our plans were confirmed, I set my phone down and leaned back in my chair.
Just as I was about to dive into some online forums, my phone buzzed again, this time with a call from my mom.
"Hey, Mom," I said, answering with a casual tone.
Her voice carried its usual blend of warmth and no-nonsense attitude.
[Mom: Alex, when are you planning to enroll back in school?]
I glanced at the calendar on my desk and gave her the answer I knew she wanted to hear.
"Next month. I'll register in February and start in March."
