It'll be fun and besides, you need to get out and enjoy the sun some more!" she said, coming out with her vibrant red hair done up in a ponytail, already dressed in her red bikini that showed off her curves, her voluptuous breasts, and her fair skin tone perfectly. Christina caught the glimpse of her roommate's blue gemmed naval ring that seemed to stand out in contrast to the swimsuit. "It's the weekend, you don't have to work, and you have at least a week before the Summer-Two session starts! Besides, you've been moping around here since Bethany graduated. You need to get out."
