"It is," Lia said with a smile and no tools for confirmation as she finished rolling out the edges of her purple mat. There was no clock in the studio, and her cell was resting in silence on the nightstand next to her bed, where she'd left her sleeping supercop with a kiss and a deft slip from his sleep-slowed grasp. But her sense of time told her it was close to 6:30 - that and when she'd passed the bank on the way here not two minutes ago, the clock on it had said 6:20. With a long stretch, she bent over, untying her sneakers and slipping them off, her socks following in short order.
Slowly she sank to the mat, stretching out her legs in a straddle, facing her new classmate. This early, it might end up that they were the only ones in the class, and the instructor wasn't always quite on time, so it was an opportunity to meet someone new - and Lia usually liked those.
"I'm Lia," she said with a smile as she leaned over to one side, reaching for her toes with the opposite hand. "Nice to meet you."
