Joining the sorority had to be the best and worst thing Imani Howard could've done. She was never the one to put herself out there, but never one to coward away. Especially in Highschool. She was known but nobody really, knew her. College flipped th...

HOME, 6:15AM, Monday IMANI POV:
Chpt 1 ✩- Freshman
I'm sick to my stomach. Today is my very first day at college. I don't really know what to expect but I did some research. It didn't really help. My nerves are still running like crazy, when everyone on the internet claims 'college isn't anything to be scared of'
As if..
My phone alarm buzzing on my bed. Fuck! I'm so not ready for this.
I sat upright in my bed. Jumping when my mother bust in my room.
"Get up, get up, get up~! It's college time Lil Mama" She said singing, coming over opening my blinds on my window.
My face scrunches up.. It's too got damn early for this. I wanna just sleep!
"Maaa!" I said whining, shielding my face from the sun.
"Come on now. You gonna be late for your first day of college? Really Mani!?" She stood in front of my bed, hands crossed, face filled with attitude.
"Alright, alright.. I'm getting up." I mumbled, turning the annoying alarm off. And hopping out of bed.
I'm just glad that there was some complications with the dorms so i'm able to stay with my mom for the next half week. I know it's probably better if i move in sooner, but i'm just not ready. Not ready at all.
My little sister, Kayune, runs into my room. So excited for me. She's only 6, all she knows is that everyone is very happy, so she should be as well.
I simply sighed. Leaned down to give her a kiss on her forehead. Revealing the toothless-toothy grin on her face.
Without anymore words, I lightly rubbed my eye, making my way to the bathroom. I'd already shaved and exfoliated last night, so i'm definitely clean. But this is my first impression of these people, and their first of me.
I turned the water on, waiting for it to be at the scorching temperature so I can hop in. I'm upset i'll only have 15 minutes to shower, but.. I can't be late on my first day!
Wrapping my messy hair into a bonnet and a shower cap.. I stepped into the water, sighing when the heat hit my body.
Trying my best to soak up this relaxing time as best as I can. While obviously still cleaning, I'm not on my time this morning.
Using my liquid dove soap I lathered my rag up until it started to create a bunch of bubbles.
I used my dominant hand to throughly scrub my body, making sure to get into any crevices I can reach and see.
Stepping into the water I let all the suds wash off my body. Then I did it again. Being sure to wash my neck, behind my ears, my back, behind my knee-caps, and underarms.
