Most likely, you've activated a promotional offer on your account, which should expire in six month or a year after it was added on. Usually 100 GB is given to new owners of a laptop device by certain manufacturers.
You can confirm the quota granted by checking this page.
If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.

Hi Jay. I also have 100G that came with the new laptop and will last for 6 months. What should I expect after 6 months? Can I keep just 102G? How much would it cost?

A Basic account usually has 2GB of space and you've earned another 100GB through a promotion. When that promotion expires your quota will drop back down to 2GB, at which point you'll either need to remove some files to stay below your quota or you'll need to upgrade to a paid plan. You can see a list of the plans available on this page.
