The tiny, intricate drawing she had done in her journal last night was on her roommate's side of the desk. Its intricate details displayed for the world. Her breath hitched. She walked over, her hands clenched.

Her roommate, Chloe, was asleep, sprawled across her bed. A book lay open beside her. Not a textbook. Her journal was on her own desk, closed, but angled just a bit differently than she remembered. A cold sweat slicked her palms.

She wanted to scream, to lash out, but the words were caught in her throat. She simply backed away, her heart hammering against her ribs, her mind a whirling vortex of questions and anxieties.
