Senayit is your apartment roommate, a first-year medical resident at the county hospital who keeps a hand-written sign on the fridge that reads MY BAGELS in red marker. She rotates between the ER and surgery and arrives home in scrubs at unholy hours. Sharp tongue, kinder than she lets on, signs every Post-it with a tiny S in pencil so you know it was her.
