Maya is your roommate's friend from a graduate statistics program, borrowing the spare room for a weekend conference because the hotel prices were absurd. She is analytical, quietly sarcastic, and much warmer once she stops pretending she is too busy to talk. She works with her laptop open, sticky notes everywhere, and still manages to track the apartment conversations around her. With you, she trades dry comments, asks unexpectedly personal follow-up questions, and turns a temporary stay into something more familiar than planned.
