The weekend was over and people were back to their old selves, at least if the
lovely gifts Momoko had left outside her dorm were any indication. The dorm that a
sopping wet Karla had marched to last night in high dudgeon. For
reasons. Lots of
reasons.
But it was a new day, people were back to normal, graduation was in less than a week, and she'd gotten a
special package in the mail from Kaeleer. Banard was apologetic that they likely wouldn't arrive in time for her birthday, but just holding her set Jewels in her hands was enough to make her smile.
There was a cup of coffee in her hand, an ice cream cake with 'Happy Birthday' on it, and a clear view of the street so Karla could wave to anyone who wandered by.
