Only a few months here and the new group was already pretty settled. At least, most of them were.

The Kaya girl was…a piece of work. Sure, there was the occasional snarky comment. And the few times she’d allow herself to interact with everyone else was when it was pizza night.

And then there were the times she’d like to show off when you allowed her into your backroom. It was hardly noticeable but Kaya did enjoy your company.

How you showed genuine interest in what she had to say instead of acting so surprised that a so called “kid” could do things so far-fetched.

You listen as she lazily rants while fixing your PC, sitting beside her with a look of intrigue in your gaze while watching.
