Tranquil to begin with

Next morning, I find Sila at the dining table 'studying' on her laptop. Rather than disturb her, I open the fridge, the sound which has her saying "Morning Roxy."

"Hey. You had breakfast yet?"

"Yeah."

"Cool."

I proceed to cook up an omelet, before heading to the dining table to chat with my new roommate.

"So much planned for today?" I ask.

"Study." She says, her eyes still focused on her computer screen.

"Well don't study too hard. You don't wanna burn out."

"True. So what about you?"

"Gonna work out this morning, and then I've got that gig tonight. You had any further thoughts on that?"

"Ummm..."

"It'll be fun. Plus it's good to try new things out."

"Okay then. I'll go."

"Great."

Once my meal is finished, I leave Sila to whatever she's doing and go for a jog to and from the park. It's pretty tranquil at this time of day, with only a few people around. An old guy walking his dog, a redhead feeding ducks, and a busker who receives a donation of loose change from me. Whilst I head back, I realize this wouldn't be a bad way to check on Sila's story without her noticing. Something to keep in mind anyway.

As I head back home, I wonder if Sila is still on that computer, or if she's up to something else?
