Loretta took the student ID and examined it as if she were a detective, clearly not trusting Mira.

It was a bit rude to treat Mira like that, so I quickly pulled Loretta aside and signaled for her to stop.

Loretta wasn’t dumb. She saw what I meant and immediately handed the ID back. “Sorry, my mistake, but you don’t look like a student.”

Mira didn’t say anything in reply. She just turned and began packing her things.

Loretta, thinking Mira was upset with her, decided to approach her first. “Mira, right? I didn’t mean to offend you. We’re roommates now, so if you ever need anything, just ask.”

Mira remained silent, only taking a cigarette from her pack and idly fiddling with it.

But she stopped midway. The tension from earlier was enough, and pushing it further would only make things worse.

The atmosphere between them felt even more awkward now than when they were fighting.
