WHEN MAI AWOKE IN THE morning and opened her eyes to the sight of a bed across from her with another girl sleeping in it, she was initially confused. Finally realizing where she was after the first few foggy minutes, Mai sat up in bed, fully awake.
"Evelyn, wake up!"
Evelyn stirred in bed, making faint grumbling sounds of protest, still half asleep. She rolled over, opening her eyes blearily with a grumpy expression.
"What?" she mumbled, with a voice like sandpaper.
"I met someone last night! Evelyn, I know what I am now!"
Evelyn opened her eyes a little wider and looked at Mai's face. Seeing her excitement, she groaned and rubbed her eyes.
"Okay, okay, I'm up. Let's wake the other two if you've got a story to tell. I don't want to hear it twice without coffee in my veins."
Mai nodd
