Salene's Room
Mouse hadn't expected to fall asleep that fast, but apparently she had. Salene had told her so much and she was still a little confused. She laid on her back staring up at the ceiling. She knew Salene was already up. She could hear her and some others in the cafe, but Mouse didn't move. She was still thinking. At one point in the middle of the night she had thought she had heard Salene talking to someone, but she couldn't wake up enough to find out who. And now here she was wide awake and not moving.
Bray's brother was Zoot. She had been told. And Zoot had been in charge of the Chosen, right? But Zoot was dead? And the Chosen had kidnapped Bray. What for? ...ugh... Too much thinking. She sat up. And Ryan had been a Mallrat. And Salene's husband. Taken away by the Chosen. So did he just escape or where had he been? Mouse sighed, annoyed.
She got up from the bed. Her shoes were still in her room. Oh well. She knew that after breakfast she would be told to get cleaned up and then she could worry about it. So she didn't even worry about glancing in the mirror Salene had set up. But had a thought and rummaged through Salene's dresser trying not to mess anything up too much. Happy she pulled something from it and bunched it up to carry with her.
She left the room and went to hers, putting the shirt on her bed for later. Salene had mentioned that today they could make her an "official" Mallrat by giving her the symbol they all wore. She smiled. Then she wanted to have a new look to go with it. Pleased she headed towards the cafe...
