BLOOM IN CRAMPED ATTIC

Dacota a teenager sent to boarding school. courteously due to her parent's divorce with neither of them wanting to take custody of her

As she was dumped off by her mom in that not so pleasant looking building stood infront of her THE INFAMOUS BOARDING SCHOOL KNOWN FOR ""FIXING ATTITUDE PROBLEMS OF TROUBLED TEENS "

Mom can't I stay with you or dad must i live here in hell looking school for rebellious teens not like i ever casued you any inconvenience "dacota asked her mom pleading with her gaze

"Dacota i already told you I can't take care of you this is best arrangement I can find for you and ... I'm getting married to my colleague he might not like a step daughter's burden"dacota's mom said without casting second glance at her pleading daughter and left without proper good-byes...

As dacota watched her mom's car disappearing in distance she thought are all mom's like this or I just got unclucky

Then the hostel wardener an old lady spoke stoically " are you gonna keep standing there looking pitiful. She just turned around presuming dacota will follow her inside

As dacota walked in those boring sturdy walls she mumbled " few punks must've tried to escape thinking they're cool

Dacota's day went on finishing those formalities paperwork,class schedule after a long day she went to her assigned room as she stepped inside and noticed the not soo tidy looking room the clothes scattered around in a mess ,the packaged food used can's lying on table

She muttered "only if the wardener saw this definitely will go to grave sooner than designated

Just then a guy most likely her roomate just stepped out of bathroom shirtless just in trouser's

Dacota yelped in suprise turning away embarassed and flustered

The guy spoke "guess you're the boring roommate I got assigned with .Would've been cool if it was someone who blushed less and talkative fine atleast better than the last one I had who was like raccoon always facing fridge in middle of night anyways I'm ryan

Dacota she replied

"Yeah yeah whatever well cleaning duty is yours from today "ryan said

"Oh really and why would I play maid " as if you're any royal. clean after yourself mister" dacota answered walking past him

Dacota got busy setting up her room and by the time she finished it was already dark outside .she stepped outside her room starving as she had skipped lunch from all the settling in .as she started cooking she noticed ryan and spoke up

"Well aren't you quite rebellious for boarding school seems like this place didn't succeed getting through that thick skull of yours ryan " she spoke

"Guess I'm lucky that they failed to make some yes sir puppet out of me maybe I'm just too stubborn " he said smugly yet looked more genuine now

"And what about the already quiet easy to manipulate pitiful kid's like me who's divorced parent's dumped me here instead of orphanage or some foster care cause that's too cruel for their image " dacota said sarcastically albeit bit bitter

Ryan hummed and said spoke maybe don't let them mold you being abandoned sucks but you're not pitiful don't let other's kick you around especially here where bunch on nerd's trying to play rowdy due to complexities of supression here

Thanks didn't expect "untidy brat's to have such insight" dacota replied

Not nice new roommate he commented with side eye
