Crystal Chooses The Wrong Path

Crystal loved her mother dearly, but that didn't stop her from envying her for all the freedom she had. At only sixteen years old, Crystal still had to ask her mother for permission to do anything that she wanted to do, and the answer was usually no.
Crystal was tempted by the idea of living a life without so many rules. So when her best friend suggested the two of them sneak out to a party one night, Crystal was quick to say yes. But this choice was to be the first of many that Crystal would soon regret.
The party was wild and chaotic, and Crystal quickly got caught up in the moment. She drank more alcohol than she could handle, which only made her decision-making even more questionable. But this small amount of 'freedom' had already gone to her head.
At the end of the night, Crystal and her friend found themselves in a scuffle with some of the other party-goers. Crystal had no idea how to handle herself in a physical dispute and could do nothing but hang on to her friend for dear life. Thankfully, the situation was soon diffused, but not before the police were called.
Crystal was arrested and taken to the juvenile detention center. She had no criminal record prior to this incident, but the judge did not take it lightly. Crystal was sentenced to six months of detention and given strict instructions on how to behave for the rest of her probationary period.
Crystal realized her mistake and the repercussions that came with it. She also realized that living life without rules wasn't all it was cracked up to be. She felt ashamed and embarrassed, and vowed to correct her wrongdoings. From then on, Crystal began to make better choices and lead a more responsible life
