The walk to the breakfast line seemed endless.
Every few steps, Kel recoiled as her shoulder brushed against the silver-haired boy's. Though they were part of a large meandering crowd, everyone else seemed to have ample space around them.
So why was this kid walking so close to her?
"I heard bedsharing will only last for five more days," the close-walking kid murmured above the hum of the crowd.
Kel blinked a few times in confusion. Was the boy talking to her?
"Uh..?" she grunted, glancing toward the golden stare.
"In five days, we won't have to share beds anymore," the boy repeated.
"Oh.. ok," Kel responded absently.
It was the first time she'd really heard this kid's voice aside from a few whispers, but all she could think was why was he telling her this?
