As Amanda introduced Kokuro, Ryuu, and Levent and informed Kokuro about their photoshoot plans, she heard a door open and close. Out of the periphery of her eye, she saw a brunette carrying a bag. She recognized her as one of her floormates, Paige Summers, who was exiting her room and heading towards them in the kitchen.

Amanda knew all of her floormates by name because of the name tags on the doors, but she had never really interacted with Paige, who usually seemed to keep to herself. Amanda considered saying hi to Paige and inviting her to join them in the kitchen and photoshoot, but she noticed that Paige seemed to be avoiding eye contact with them. In fact, it seemed that the only reason Paige seemed to be going towards the kitchen was to reach the staircase that was next to the cabinet.

Hmm maybe she is heading somewhere to go to class or study, Amanda thought to herself, wondering if maybe Paige was busy. Just in case, Amanda flashed a smile at Paige while she listened to Kokuro, Levent, and Ryuu's responses. Amanda figured that a friendly smile would be inviting enough so that Paige could feel free to join them if she wanted, while at the same time not being intrusive in case Paige was busy or did not want to interact with them.
