"Hey Samar", Maika says. "Hey.. you heard me coming?", Samar replies. "No", Maika replies. "My spider-sense was tingling" Samar smirks.

"Where the heck is this thing?", she mutters to herself, as Samar watches and waits. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt0-02.png">') [[Continue->Continue0-02]]"What?", Maika says, finally turning her attention to Samar. "What?", he replies. "You're looking at me funny", Maika accuses. "No I'm not", Samar replies, defensively. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt0-03.png">') [[Continue->Continue0-03]]"I thought you were doing yoga for a moment there", Samar says. "What //were// you doing anyways?" (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt0-04.png">') [[Continue->Continue0-04]]"Well, Asako decided that it would be a 'funny' joke to hide the mouse today", Maika explains. "So, I'm mouse-hunting". "Ahhhh.. should've guessed", Samar replies. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt0-05.png">') [[Continue->Continue0-05]]"Wanna go to the computer lab and worry about the mouse later?", Samar asks. "Sure", Maika replies with a smile. "By the way... I'm surprised you two never make your bed", Samar comments. "Or at least, ''you'' always were the make-your-bed type" "I did make my bed...", Maika comments. "But it's not-- oh... Asako?", Samar replies. "Asako", Maika nods.

"Just like so many of the women here" "They must have been raised like pigs... Disgusting", Sahana continues her observations. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt1-01.png">') [[Continue->Continue1-01]]"Speaking of 'disgusting', how about these classes", Tisha says. "I'm barely passing right now" "Then you're doing better than me, Tish", Sahana replies. "It sucks... like, why do we even have to be here?", Tisha laments. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt1-02.png">') [[Continue->Continue1-02]]"You know, there was a time when women like us didn't have to go through all of this nonsense, just to live a good life", Sahana says. "My mother tells me to be more like my older sister, yet my mother herself never went to college and she's living lavish", Sahana continues. "Why can't I be more like her, I say" "Besides... I bet neither of //them// could pass this class either", Sahana concludes. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt1-03.png">') [[Continue->Continue1-03]]"Oh, I think you can pass, Sahana", Tisha reassures her. "And more than that, really". "If a dumb klutz like Lori is getting praise from the prof, then you should be getting worshipped", Tisha insists. "Why don't you ask that genius geek for help... what's his name?", Tisha says. "Samal? Samar? Whatever" (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt1-04.png">') [[Continue->Continue1-04]]"That's not a bad idea, Tish", Sahana replies. "I saw him helping Timothy the other day". "I bet I could have that little boy wrapped around my finger, just for the chance to look at me", Sahana suggests. "He'll be doing //all// my homework" (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt1-05.png">') [[Continue->Continue1-05]]"It only seems right", Tisha says, as they get up off the dorm lounge couch. "He'll be doing what he's good at" "And I'll be doing what //I'm// good at", Sahana says. "As it was meant to be" (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt1-06.png">') [[Continue->Continue2-00]]"You're missing something there", Maika says, pointing. "Ahhhh, you're right", Samar replies. "Thanks Maika". Sahana approaches. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt2-01.png">') [[Continue->Continue2-01]]Sahana gets in close to Samar, greeting him with a "hey there" and almost butt-bumping Maika right out of the way. Clearly surprised to be approached by her, Samar stutters a "Hey... uhh, what's up Sahana?". (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt2-02.png">') [[Continue->Continue2-02]]"Samal, I was just wondering if--", Sahana begins, before Maika cuts her off. "It's //Samar//", Maika interjects, as Sahana shoves her way further in between her and Samar. Sahana continues talking as if Maika isn't there, "--you might like to start helping me with some things from class, like--". Maika interrupts again, "umm, we were kind of working on something for class already, actually". (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt2-03.png">') [[Continue->Continue2-03]]Sahana finally decides to turn her attention to the interrupting Maika, telling her, "Excuse me whoever you are, but as you can see, Samar and I are trying to have a discussion". "We were ''already'' in the middle of a discussion!", Maika asserts. "And now he's in the middle of a more important one", Sahana responds quickly. "So why don't you run along until he needs you again?" Maika waits for Samar to defend her -- to tell Sahana to get lost. His defense never comes. As Samar sits silent, Maika decides to leave. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt2-04.png">') [[Continue->Continue2-04]]"So rude", Sahana scoffs as Maika exits. "As I was saying..." "I think you and I could make a great... team", Sahana suggests, leaning into Samar. "You help me.. and then we see what happens". "What do you think?", she asks. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt2-05.png">') [[Continue->Continue2-05]]"I think that's a great idea", Samar replies. "I'm surprised you would ask". "The only thing is time", Samar adds. "I'm already spread so thin, and I don't think I have anything left of myself to spare". "While it would be a real pleasure to help you, I don't think I can commit to anything right now", Samar explains. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt2-06.png">') [[Continue->Continue2-06]]The look on Sahana's face suddenly changes to one of hostility. Samar notices. "... Uh, maybe I could... get a friend to help you or--", Samar stammers before being interrupted. "No, you listen to me now", Sahana cuts him off. "You're an ugly fucking virgin chess loser that doesn't even deserve to be in my presence". "I honor you with the chance to interact with me, and you insult me like this?", Sahana snipes. "I-I uhh, didn't mean to--", Samar stutters. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt2-07.png">') [[Continue->Continue2-07]]"Mark my words, you little freak", Sahana says. "You will ''NEVER'' have a beautiful woman like me interested in spending a single second with you for //any// geniune intimite reason", she sneers. "And don't you ever forget that I was the one that warned you", she tells him, as she walks away. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt2-08.png">') [[Continue->Continue2-08]]Samar heads back to Maika's dorm room. "Thought you'd still be talking to your new pal", Maika says quietly. "Maika, she's not my friend", Samar says. "Sure seemed like it", Maika replies. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt0-07.png">') [[Continue->Continue0-07]]"Yeah.. well... you didn't see her reaction when I told her I didn't have time to help her", Samar says, sitting down near Maika. "She was pretty hostile... I think I made an enemy", Samar tells her. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt0-08.png">') [[Continue->Continue0-08]]"Oh my gosh! You rejected her?!?", Maika says in shock. "Kind of yes.. she just wanted help with class.. And I tried to be as nice as I possibly could", Samar says. "I even offered to find someone else to help her". "Oh wow, that's not what I expected at all", Maika says with surprise. "Not the being nice part, but the fact you turned her down" "I wish I could have been there to see the look on her face", Maika says with a grin. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt0-09.png">') [[Continue->Continue0-09]]"I don't blame you for being surprised", Samar admits. "I've been told I'm not too good at saying 'no', so I'm trying to work on that". "It was harder than I thought it would be", Samar confesses. "She said some pretty terrible things to me". "Makes me feel bad, but still, not as bad as I feel for not saying something sooner.. while you were still there", Samar says. "I'm sorry Maika". (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt0-10.png">') [[Continue->Continue0-10]]Maika can tell that Samar is upset about how things went. She gets up off the bed to comfort him. "Samar, you have nothing to feel sorry about", Maika tells him. "You did the right thing" "We've known each other a long time and I know how hard it must have been for you to do that", Maika explains. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt0-11.png">') [[Continue->Continue0-11]]"So forget about what happened and get up and cheer up", Maika says with cheerfully. ".. or I'll get Asako after you!", she teases. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt0-12.png">') [[Continue->Continue0-12]]"Alright, alright, anything but that", Samar jokes. "I'm up, I'm up and I'm cheery". "Better", Maika says with a smile. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt0-13.png">') [[Continue->Continue0-13]]"Thank you, Maika", Samar says. "You're always welcome, Samar", Maika replies. (print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt0-14.png">') [[Continue->Continue0-14]](print: '<img src="' + $domainpath + 'pt0-15.png">') [[Continue->Continue0-15]]"So... ", Samar says, breaking the silence. "Ready to continue where we left off at?" "Yeah, uhh.. yeah, we should probably do that", Maika replies as Samar heads to the door.
