She felt the weight of her bags as she trudged up the steep stairs, one in each hand. If only she had a man in a black suit to assist her with all her trappings, maybe she could get to her room a little faster, settle in a little sooner and start school with a little more cheer. However, she was not one to fantasize about such things. She could not be led astray by such fantasies.
She had come to this school for two reasons. One was to get the best education she could afford with a little charity. This boarding school was known to filter into the best ivy league schools and these students got coveted scholarship spots, not that most of the students who went to this school needed a scholarship.
The second objective in choosing to attend this prestigious boarding school was to find a prestigious boyfriend with a lot of prestigious money. She figured that it wouldn't be long before she could find her way into this group of stuck up students. And even if she had to settle for the nerdy outcast or the quiet, shy one, she was going to make the best of what they had to offer. At the same time, this would improve her status and maybe, even if for a short time, she could live beyond what her current circumstances could never even allow her to dream.
