Plans during dinner

In Masika's room…

Zack sat on the chair and observed the neat room. There is a seating area (where he is), a bed, a desk with a chair, and floating shelves filled with books. Everything is in its place.

Above the desk is a corkboard with a number of photos attached to it. Zack wanted to see who is on the photos, but he was afraid of how that would be too nosy, so he told himself to stay put. 

"We have about twenty minutes until dinner. Do you want to drink something?", Masika asked.

Zack rejected her offer. "No, thanks. I'm fine."

Masika grabbed a bottle of water and sat opposite from him.

"The summer is over, what do you plan to do now?", Zack asked.

"Study mostly. If I keep my current pace, in two years I can start college."

"I thought you are already taking college-level courses."
