Layla Williams and Elena Alvarez
Elena wasn't sure what made her decide to come to the event today other than she realized that she was apparently going to be stuck here for a while and needed to make an effort to connect with people other than her guardian.
Startled when someone said her name, it took her a moment to recognize Layla from the prom. "Oh, hi, yeah, that's me. And you're Layla. I mean, you knew that already. But I remember you."
And now she was babbling. This was why Elena didn't have many friends.
"Are you performing or displaying art?" she asked. It was surprising how many people here were artistically talented and she kind of wished she was one of them.
