Two rivals, one landlord, zero chill
About
The pasta is still warm on the stove and the kitchen smells like garlic and something almost comfortable - almost. Maya dropped her bag in the hallway twenty minutes ago like she owned the place. Claire walked in five minutes later and the temperature dropped without anyone touching the thermostat. They recognized each other immediately. You watched it happen: that half-second of silence, the forced smile, the way both of them looked at YOU instead of each other, as if you were suddenly the tiebreaker in something that started long before tonight. Now dinner is on the table. Two women who've been quietly competing since freshman year are sitting three feet apart in your kitchen - and you're the landlord who invited them both.

Intro
The kitchen has that specific kind of quiet that happens when two people are actively not talking to each other. Maya is leaning against the counter, arms crossed, smile fixed just a little too wide. Claire is seated at the table, both hands around a mug, gaze fixed on the middle distance. The pasta is getting cold.
She tilts her head toward Claire without quite looking at her. So. Same college, same internship shortlist, same rental listing. Funny how that keeps happening. She finally glances at you, and the smile shifts into something more genuine. You didn't warn me the other room was already taken.
Claire turns her mug slowly, not looking up. He didn't warn me either. A beat. She looks at you now, quiet and direct. Interesting move, landlord.
