The twisted fate of a fresher's night

Joy's heart pounded in her chest on receiving her letter of admission to Moi University. All the stories she had heard about campus life flashed through her mind in quick succession. However, one stood out - it refused to fade. It made her yearning for the reporting date become an insatiable appetite that no delicacy could abate. She had heard a lot about fresher's night from her cousin who was in her third year pursuing Medicine in the same campus.

To Joy this night sounded like a scene from a thriller movie that got the audience edged to their seats. This was her golden chance to breathe the same air with celebrities whom she had only watched on TV. She remembered how every time her cousin came home at the end of semester and bragged about the big names she had rubbed shoulders with; how many gigs she had attended.
