I find it strange that no one has noticed that it is either another Maya, the MC has regained his memory, or there is a big time jump.
Read the message from the Cluck.

Midterms. Like Jill? Then Maya must be about Jill's age, so she's been in college longer. See what's in Maya's right hand? A calendar.
4 possibilities
Possibility 1:
Midterms. This is an older sister of Maya? This is only one possibility.
Possibility 2:
Something happened in the past where the MC lost his head. So his memory. DnG 1.
Possibility 3:
The others played a Halloween prank on the MC.
Possibility 4:
Time jump
