***************************

Today is the day i'm officially stepping my foot to college. Oh great.

I was still busy looking around the campus when someone smacked my butt.

"Save it for rapists, ginger! It's just your kind best friend." Nike rushed, worrying that I might go berserk

"You don't sneak on me like that! Especially not when i'm contemplating how many times in my stay here am I gonna see this beautiful statue." I said while returning my gaze to the overly decorated yet dusty university statue

"Well, whatever. We should get to our dorms now. I still can't believe we're not roommates! But anyway, our rooms are just across from each other" She winked

Another thing that sucks. Not having your best friend as your roommate. Sigh.

When we reached our doors, we quickly said goodbye and went in. To my surprise, I saw my roommate has already finished unpacking and now fiddling with her macbook.

"The other bed is yours. Mine is taken." My roommate said without looking up. Well thanks, captain obvious.

"Hi! My name is Scarlett. Scarlett Madison. What's yours?" I said with a smile, silently hoping she's not a bitch like what I think she is. Might as well start a humble beginning

She just stared at my hand and went back to typing in her laptop.

Well, so much for humble beginnings, she's a bitch. Poor me.

I began to unpack my things and ponder over what designs I'm gonna add to make my area more cozy.

"Okay, here are the rules in being my roommate." She started. "Rule number one, no trespassing within this line." She stated while sticking a straight line of tape in the middle of the room, indicating her and my territory. "Rule number two, no sex while I'm here. I don't wanna hear your moans, and most importantly, your naked body. Rule number three, I don't want kleptomaniacs. Mine is mine. Yours are yours. Rule number four, do not ever, ever bother me in my sleep." She said

"What if you're late to your class? Shouldn't I wake you up or something?" I interrupted her

"Mind your own business. I don't care about you so you shouldn't care either. Now, for the last rule, rule number five, never ever gossip about me to you friends or boyfriends. Are we clear, Sandy Madison?" She finished while crossing her arms and tapping her foot.

"Well, first of all, my name is not Sandy, it's Scarlett. And second, are those rules also applicable for my benefit?" I asked her with clear annoyance

"Sure, Scarlett. And for the rules, I don't care about you." She said mockingly

"Well aren't you so full of yourself? You don't tell me what I do because you're not the boss of me. if you don't care about me, then why should I care about you and your stupid rules?" I snapped at her

"Whatever. Suit yourself, Sandy." She sneered, giving me one last glare before storming out of the room

As my roommate went out the door, there came Nike giving me a weird look.
