Zavier sighed, his voice a low rumble of resignation. “I know, Mom.”
Kalene’s gaze was soft, but her words carried the weight of impending adulthood. “School’s starting up again, Zav. Next thing you know, your college life will be over. We respect your choice not to study abroad. But once you graduate, you’re going to be an adult with responsibilities far heavier than you might imagine.”
“I get it, Mom. Really, I do.”
A new school.
New classmates.
New roommates.e2
Everything awaiting Skyler was a fresh start. Despite the trials she had faced, even without the freedom she craved, Skyler was brimming with passion for life and hopeful for the future. She had always believed-steadfastly-that with hard work, she could change her current circumstances. She could give herself and her little sister the life they dreamed of.
The buzz of freshman orientation was always something else.
Stepping off the bus, Skyler’s eyes immediately caught the large, welcoming banner: A Fresh Start! A New Chapter! Welcome, Class of 2014! Capital College, undeniably one of the nation’s finest, exuded vibrancy, from the spirited banner to the eager faces of students milling around.
A fresh start.
A new chapter.
Her blood surged at the sight. Yes, this was her fresh start. Today marked the beginning of her new life…
“Hey there, freshman…”
The unfamiliar male voice yanked Skyler back to the present. He smiled warmly at her. “New here, huh? What department? Let me help you with your bags.”
Skyler never expected such a scene from the TV dramas to play out in her life; it was amusing. “You go here too?”
The guy nodded. “Senior year. I’m a few years ahead of you.”
With a grateful smile, Skyler replied, “That’s kind of you, but my bags are light. I can manage. Maybe help someone else who needs it more?”
He insisted, “The check-in process can be a real headache; let an old hand show you the ropes. It’ll save you a ton of hassle.”
Skyler was always reluctant to trouble others. “Really, thanks! But I’m good.”
The first to approach her had failed. Two more guys tried and failed as well. After that, no one else followed her.
The guy she had first turned down said to his friends, “Shame, such a pretty freshman. Didn’t even get her name.”
His buddy chimed in, “We’re all at the same school. Plenty of time to find out.”
Suddenly, a voice tinged with amusement but not quite a laugh sounded from behind them, “Do you guys even know who she is?”
