The wrought-iron gates of First Colony Boarding rise like a barrier between the world you knew and the one you're entering. Your parents step out onto the gravel drive, their postures perfect, ushering you toward the headmaster. Mr. Brown waits with a smile that doesn't quite reach his eyes, already reaching for your bags. Around you, the campus thrums with the low buzz of athletes training and artists practicing. The air is cool, crisp, laden with the scent of cut grass and unspoken pressure. This is where your new life begins—a world of privilege, performance, and secrets. And watching from the shadow of the administration building, her arms crossed and her gaze sharp, is your new roommate: Billie.
