Terri sat on her bed and pulled out her journal from her suitcase.
"Are you even going to say hi?" Robin asked, dabbing blush on her cheeks. Terri looked up. The way she remembered Robin was not helpful. Robin had never been anything but mean to Terri, and now that she was a roommate with her, she didn't know whether she should retaliate or be nicer.
"Hi." Terri layed back on her bed and opened her journal.
"Have you seen Jay at all?" Robin asked.
"Yes."
"Come on Terri, lets not have these one word answers. I want to be friends." Terri rolled her eyes. "I'm serious." Robin continued. "I just want to get along with you since we are going to be room mates."
"Robin, we have never been friends, lets just keep it that way." Terri put her journal back in her suitcase and walked out of the room. Great. She thought. Now there was no where to hang out and get some peace.
"Terri!" She turned to see Jay running down the hallway.
"Jay, what are you doing! where have you been." Terri was half laughing at Jay's face and half annoyed that he had been here the whole time.
"I got the day off from one of the teacher. I want to show you something. Will you come with me?" Jay grabbed Terri's hand. "Please?"
"Yes yes alright. Where are we going?"
"Up on the roof." Jay pulled Terri down the hallway heading for the stairs that lead up to the most beautiful view of the city. The sun was just over the mountains way off in the distance, and the clouds were blending to make a red pinkish colour across the sky. Down below were thousands of people walking and crossing the streets. They all looked like ants to Terri and Jay.
"Jay, it's gorgeous. I have never been up here when it was like this." Terri stepped to the edge of the building and let the wind blow in her face. It felt good to be out of the stuffy room with Robin in it.
"Isn't it? I thought you would like it. Jay wrapped his arms around her and they both were silent taking it all in. "Wait! that isn't all." Jay said and turned Terri around. There was a table with a computer on it and behind that was a microphone. Terri looked confused.
"What is this?" she asked.
"It's your recording studio. Remember the story we heard about the Beatles? How they sang on top of a roof for everyone down below and recorded it?
"Jay..." Terri wasn't sure about doing it.
"Terri you have an amazing voice. You should record it. I have a friend who signs artists, I could send her the CD." Terri smiled.
"Ok. I will try it." Jay kissed her.
"Thank you."
