Chapter 27: Chapter 27

The first class I walked into was history and it kind of made me wish the war I was so afraid to face was history as well because of the way everyone was looking at me. I walked in further into the room and not a sound was made until I found a comfortable sit in the third roll near the window. The classes continued like no one had interrupted,  the lecturer proceeded with his statement in a deep Swedish accent

"As I was saying before the late interruption, looking at the late comer.  As any one wondered why the moons is quite a delicate element?...

it could give and take power however it soo pleases. The scientist calls it an astronomical body orbiting earth as its only natural satellite. Nonsense! Those aren’t even words,  astronomical pulezee.. The moon is so powerful so unique, so different,  yet so dead. Still this lifeless moon that doesn’t have a light of his own but depends on the sun to shine through him.  This moon is the start to everything our world is built on...."

With that the class kicked off with me paying close attention and jotting a few things down when needed I made sure not to ask any questions not that I had any I was just curious as to what his name is and who starts an history class with the moon as the subject of conversation?

Any way that isn’t the problems the problem was it was just thirty minutes passed ten and the class was already dismissed. Immediately I snapped out of whatever it was I was doing when I saw the rest of the class standing up and gradually moving towards the door.

"Urr hey Mr Lecturer you can’t leave now, I just got here. Besides we still have an hour more to go"

I asked with a shaky voice and a big nervous grin on my face he rolled his eyes at my questions as he said

"Alright everyone since that creature was curious enough to ask me a stupid question, let me also ask mine.  Who is the creator of the moon, is it the big Guy up there whom some people refer to as  the God of all gods or the pretties damsels in the land known as The Moon Goddess?  Whoever side you are on please back it up with a one page report as an answers, To be summited the night before the full moon."

As he completed his statement he left the room while everyone turned to glared at me. I just gulped inaudibly giving them an awkward smile and wave.  I was luck they didn’t do more than glare at me before they all left for their next class while I left for mine which was photography.  We were all sent out on the field to take mental picture of what was around us which by the way was very lame I wished I could swap it for something more interesting but sadly I couldn’t I was given this classes for a reason and I can’t change I even if I tried.

While I was out taking mental picture and not paying attention to where my legs were taking me I tripped and almost fell but feminine  hand caught me right on time. Immediately we both adjusted ourselves I recognized her scent as it hit me strong and hard and I recognized it as the girl from the airport the other day.  How could I forget she smells like strawberry shortcake with a hint of vanilla and peppermint,

I wonder if it’s her shampoo or body cream. I couldn’t quite figure out but all I could see was her as the world around us faded into a blur,  I smiled sheepishly while she said things I was paying attention too. She snapped her finger in front of me to get my attention as she said

"You look awfully familiar have we met"

"Urrrr"

"Of cause I know that cold stare when I see one. You’re that girl I bumped into the other day at the airport"

"Urrr really"

"Umm year I’d recognize that neckless anywhere. It’s beautiful on you though not any one can pull off a rare necklace like that. The name is Temi and yes you guessed it I’m Nigerian but don’t hold that against me because I am tougher than I look."

"blush umm thanks, the name is Lora cute outfit by the way."

"Awwwn thank you  I wish we could talk more but I have another class right now, see you around."

I felt butterflies erupt from the pit of my stomach for the first time since I got here,  Finally another shot at a relationship. I was a little worried that we were of the same gender but who am I to complain, I’ll take what I can get while I was still day dreaming about her someone cleared his throat loudly beside me catching my  attention I turned only to find Colton staring at me with soo much hate and disgust okay what crawled up his ass I thought while he said

"Don’t you like have somewhere else to be instead of standing like a statue and casing obstruction.  Urgh out of my way punk!"

I was going to respond but I thought better of it and just ignored him and headed back to my photography class.

After and another 3 hours of learning it was time to head back home so I went to wait for Eliot and his siblings beside the car at the parking lot and they showed up 30 seconds later and we all headed home. I was obviously starving so I went straight to the kitchen first since I hadn’t eaten any decent mean since breakfast.

While I was having lunch  Eliot walking in he was on the phone chatting with someone and I just sat quietly I’ve had the longest first day at college ever. What really puzzled me was I didn’t get detention for coming late to class plus there was no such thing as a warning bell neither was there a hall way of locker. College was definitely not like high school,  It is soo different from what I imagined. Eliot decided to strike up a conversation with me while he ate his lunch as well

"Soo how was first day at college"

"Umm okay I guess. It a lot more different than I expected in a good way though"

"Cool soo are you going to be the party freak or the dabbling kind who likes a nice buzz but doesn’t  get white girl wasted."

"Dude do I look like any of those things to you. Please I’m in here to study, not make socially corrupt friends that are gonna get me 'wasted'… whatever that means"

"True we can’t have you dabbling through parties and classes when we know what’s coming for you."

With that his conversations ended and he finished the last of his meal before he went back to his room. I on the other hand was to terrified by his statement to move or even say anything  what does he mean by 'whats coming for me' I just sat there frozen as I lost interest in the remaining of my food because what he said brought some major chills. It was my mom who walked in and called out to me that snapped me out of it.

"Hey Lora I did know you were back why didn’t you come up to change your clothes first."

"i was umm I was hungry this is actually my first meal,  proper meal for today."

"Oh my bad I totally forgot to give you lunch money this morning."

Yea its I cool actually I didn't think that would have been necessary there is no such thing as lunch break   in college can you believe that?  Either way I was way too nervous to eat anything"

"Oh honey there are a lot of things that are in high school and not in college and vice-vassal the only thing constant between the two is party."

"eye roll  hmm tell me about it  Eliot already asked if I was the party type  and I think we both know the answer to that question"

With that we both left the kitchen I headed to my room to take a nap while she headed to the living room. After getting a two hour  needed rest it was already dusk I headed to my bathroom to ease myself before I stared my assignment but first things first I needed to arrange my lecture timetable so I got to it

Once I was done I proceeded to do my history assignment and while I was at it I heard a knock on the door feeling too busy to get the door I sat still and concentrated on the door and in a matter of seconds it opened letting whoever was at the door in and to my utter most surprise Cecilia was standing at the door dressed in all pink and looking at me like I’ve lost it. Apparently she noticed  I didn’t move an inch and soo she asked

"Okay its obviously didn’t get up to get the door soo how did you get the door open and why the hell did you lock  it in the first place. Are you hiding something???"

"Okay good evening to you as well and your forgetting it’s my room my rules and if you are that curious I used my telekinesis powers to open it and no I am not Infact hiding any thing"

"Whatever weirdo,  wait did you actually draw out a lecture time table urgh and you’re doing assignment geez you are just Soo last season?"

"What’s the problem pink panther can’t handle the fact I’d rather be stuck with an assignment than getting wasted"

"Arrrrggghhhhhhh!!! you know what I am not going to let your entire existence ruin my party mood. You can either come with me or—"

"Not a chance"

"As expected have fun doing homework, If there is ever any fun in it. Hahahahaha"

With that she walked out and slammed the door of my room soo hard it almost pulled out of its hinges
