Almost as soon as Pablo and Orianna left, Emma began to relax. Sam quickly hunted for any bugs and gave them the all clear with a thumb's up. He drew the curtains shut and cut himself a slice of cake. "So Sam," Miiko grinned slyly. "Is that your boyfriend?" The Prince of the rebellion did not turn a beet red, the way that Miiko had expected he would. "It's just an act to get close to the enemy," Sam replied, but Miiko remained unconvinced. "The way you blushed when he kissed you said otherwise," Sam cleared his throat. "Do you girls want cake?" It was clear that Sam wanted to change the subject, as though afraid to admit that he had managed to grow close to someone in his time here. "Yes!" Miiko chimed, bounding over to the table in excitement. "Cake, cake, cake!" She served herself a thin slice, not wanting to gain any weight before the physical exam tomorrow.
"Thanks for helping us Sam," Miiko said as she bit into it, the chocolate frosting rich and slightly salty thanks to the salted caramel. "I've never eaten a cake like this before," she sighed, it was clear that the flavor combination was one of heavenly proportions. "There are all sorts of bakeries in Capitol City, as you can tell, it's a bit different here." Miiko nodded her head, she was certain that she was going to enjoy the luxurious amenities that Capitol City provided to its upper class citizens. Or at least, what little she would get to enjoy until she had to go to the military academy and begin the agonizing process of training and recruiting people to join the rebellion. It would be slow of course and because there were such few women Miiko was gong to have to somehow gain the attention of boys, something she had previously never considered.
"I'll show you girls to your room," Sam led Miiko and Rose to a bedroom that had been freshly made up. After doing a quick sweep of the room to ensure that Orianna and Pablo hadn't left any unwanted gifts, he gave them the thumbs up and showed them how to use things like the Shower, which was not a basin of water that you had to heat on a stove. "Wow, it's running water inside the house!" Miiko said, clearly impressed. "Yeah, we've got central heating and air conditioning too." Sam turned on a fan that blew cool air through the room, suffice to say, Miiko was very entertained. She had working electricity now thanks to Nino, but this was Miiko's first time encountering an electric fan. "The air is so cold, why? It's so hot out, shouldn't it push hot air?" Sam laughed and ruffled Miiko's hair.
"You're so silly, now, study up. You're going to need all of these," Sam placed a stack of books on the table and poked Miiko on the forehead. "No slacking, I leave you in charge Irina, I'll be back in a little with some snacks to help fuel the brain." Miiko had only taken two bites of the cake, it was so rich that her mouth was unable to finish it. She sat down on the carpet and pulled out the first book. "It's thicker than any book I've ever read," Miiko groaned. "How am I supposed to read this in a day?"
