Christie lived with her parents until the age of sixteen on an island. She left the island to further her studies since her father insisted that she have a career and become an independent woman. Soon after she met Chad, they became close because he was the only person that nice to her. Little did she know Chad is a womanizer.
Chapter 1 Island life.
Christie finished high school at sixteen years old. Her father envisioned that all his daughters would excel in their studies. Christie was the smallest. Her elder sisters are elementary teachers. Christie didn't want to be a teacher so she hid her application to college. Her eldest sister found one of the applications and told her father. Christie was annoyed, so he took her to college and spoke with the interviewer to give Christie a chance. After much negotiation, the interviewer interviewed Christie.
A month later Christie received a letter that she was accepted into college and was also accepted into the dormitory. Christie was given two weeks to ensure all college necessities were purchased and for her to be registered on campus. Christie and her parents were excited. Two weeks later Christie and her dad went to college. Her dad ensured she was registered and she was in the dormitory before he bid Christie farewell. Registration was done Christie was taken to the dormitory, her father bid her farewell and left her to be settled into her new room. Christie met her roommate, Rhonda a second-year student. Rhonda and her friends introduced themselves to Christie and welcomed her to college. Christie was feeling scared, being in a new environment. It was the first time she was away from home. Her parents never allowed her to go on holiday with relatives. After unpacking, Christie showered and waited until it was dinner time to eat. The bed was so small Christie barely fit onto to bed, it was very uncomfortable. Christie took a long time to sleep. The following morning, Christie felt someone shaking her and calling "roomie" several times, she thought she was dreaming. Rhonda raised her voice and Christie jumped out of sleep and fell onto the floor in fright.
