No More Dorm, No More Risk

When my mother heard me, she looked at me with concern. "Sienna, your throat hurts? Have Sylvan take you to a doctor later. The weather's been so hot lately. It'll be awful if you fell ill now."

She immediately told Sylvan to bring over the first-aid kit they'd prepared, saying there were some basic medicines inside in case I couldn't get to a doctor at school right away.

I nearly burst into tears when I saw the worry on their faces. It had been so long since I'd felt such unconditional love.

In my previous life, they had devoted themselves entirely to Annie after I drank that milkshake, ignoring everything I said and looking at me as if I were their enemy. In the end, they had given up everything for her, even their lives.

I wasn't going to let that tragedy happen this time around.

"Mom, I don't want to stay in the dorm anymore. Didn't you buy me an apartment unit near campus? Can I move there instead?"

I had actually enrolled in a local university. Although home wasn't too far away, my mom had still bought an apartment nearby as soon as she found out I'd been accepted—just so I wouldn't have to stay in the dorm and could live more comfortably on my own.

"The dorms are crowded. I was worried you wouldn't get used to it. And with a roommate… what if your lifestyles don't match?"

Back then, my mom had listed a whole string of concerns, but I had insisted on staying in the dorm. I thought it would help me build better relationships with my classmates, so I didn't want to stand out by living off-campus right from the start.

My mom respected my decision and agreed without much fuss.

What I hadn't expected was to be assigned to a mixed dorm. The other two roommates were seniors who were out on internships most of the time and rarely came back. In the end, it was just me and Annie left in the room.

Even though I had no idea how Annie could drink the milkshake and come out completely fine, I decided to play it safe.

I thought I could at least avoid her if I couldn't fight her.

As long as I kept my distance, it didn't matter what tricks she had up her sleeve because she wouldn't be able to use them on me.
