Gwen shrugged, trying not to make a big deal about it. "I don't know. I can't tell. I emailed her, but she seemed... a little defensive, maybe? I didn't think I'd given her any reason to be, but..." she trailed off and bit her lip, trying to place her words carefully. "I don't know. Maybe she's just unsure about the whole thing, just like I am. I've never had to live with anyone else before. I don't have siblings, let alone roommates."
Her last statement sounded a bit frustrated -- exactly the emotion she'd been trying hard not to show. So she rolled her shoulders and cracked her neck, then sunk into a lazy pose in the chair, looking at Mitch. "I'm sorry. I'm really trying not to worry so much. But the closer it comes to move-in day, the more momentum that builds up."
