Jake, like everyone else, had watched the events of the new virus and the subsequent lockdowns and closures and ever growing statistics of those effected with the virus with trepidation and anxiety as he was one of the portion of the population at risk to it. However As it went on nothing happened to him even when it was announced the lockdowns would be ending and getting things back to normal as much as possible.
And he had begun to feel incredibly lucky, that he had been unaffected, and thought to himself that maybe he was immune and that it wouldn't effect him so also had it in his mind to move on as well and start back at college for his sophomore year.
on the friday before classes start he heads out, luckily his university was only a town over and was a short drive with his few personal belongings. As he arrives at the dorms where he's staying he begins to see a very different world outside, It's much less crowded with traffic, and of those that where very few if any where white people. He nearly did a double take when he saw a black girl with a white girl who stood no higher than her knee on a leash as she walked, totally naked. As well as a few others being carried around by their non white peers, the few full sized whites walking around noticeably looking circumspect and nervous. He also gets lots of looks from the nonwhites, and half hidden grins and smirks and laughter at his expense. All of this beginning to make him regret his decision.
After getting his few things unloaded into his dorm he shuts the door, and tries to lock it but the dead bolt didn't turn, it was jammed...
"Dammit, will have to call the front office to get it fixed."
He grumbles as he takes a seat on his couch to relax for a minute contemplating what he should do next....
1 - somebody knocks on his door
2 - he goes out for the evening
3 - he remains in his dorm until tomorrow morning
