Panel 1: Sara, lying in bed awake that night: "I met Jen (and William) in college. We'd been roommates since we graduated three years ago. We started as friends."

Panel 2: Sara, tossing and turning: "But now we leave increasingly angry notes for one another: Do this; fix that."

Panel 3: "Which admittedly doesn't sound very 'adult.'"

Panel 4: "But I'm also not sure if I'm ready to live with William."

Panel 5: Sara, still awake: "Or if he'd even want to." Aloud: "ugh."

Panel 6: Sara sits up, looking like she's given up on sleep altogether.

Panel 7: A view of the apartment roof in Lindenwood, at night, with a pigeon on it.

Panel 8: The same roof after the sun's come up, with two pigeons, one of which is sitting down relaxing.
