My Bestfriend's Family

I stared down at the stack of bills and notices spread out on the small kitchen table, my heart sinking with each passing second.

Rent, utilities, credit card payments- the amounts seemed to blur together into one insurmountable obstacle I had no idea how to overcome.

I had to deal with all of this while also battling a $£x @dd¡ct¡0n.

On top of all this debt, I still needed to figure out how to control my cravings, and pay for my textbooks before classes officially start next week.

Letting out a weary sigh, I ran my hands through my hair in frustration.

I had worked so hard to secure that full scholarship, and I wasn't about to let financial troubles derail my education now.

That's why I tried so hard on my outfit, for today.

School had to be the priority. I'd find a way to handle the rest, even if it meant taking on an additional part-time job on top of my course load.

Gathering the bills into a neat stack, I grabbed my backpack and headed out the door, making my way to the bus stop.

The ride to campus was uneventful, but my mind continued to race with worry over how I'd manage everything.

By the time I reached the lecture hall and found a seat, my stomach was in knots.

I was so nervous.

I quietly slid into the chair, trying not to draw any attention to myself.

The student next to me, a guy who looked to be around my age, had a completely different demeanor.

He sat slouched in his seat, leg bouncing impatiently as he glared down at his phone.
