Chapter 3

TARA'S POV

Test week in Crown Top University usually come with an unusual quietness. That is when you would know how serious the students were. That was how it was, today being the first day of test.

And who in their right sense will put BCH 201 as the first paper?....I bet those who were setting the time table are not in their right sense.

It was until after the test that I got to notice the handsome guy beside me. Though am not the type to talk to strangers,you could call me the introvert type when handling strangers but I couldn't help it today.

"Hy," I greeted him nervously

"Hello," he replied

"Am Tara Banks," I said

"Am Eric Olaosebikan." He finally said with a wink

"Wow, you mean you were the guy that saved me in that BCH class?" I squeeled out of excitement....."I didn't even get to thank you better since you disappear from the class," I said

"Yeah am the one. I didn't disappear nah, the class was over remember?...And moreover, I don't like seeing a beautiful princess in distress, that was why I helped you that day." He said with a wink

There was an awkward silence between the two of us as he said that last statement because I turned red immediately and I bet he saw that, but thank God for Cassandra, as she called my name from afar.

"Hmm Eric, I have to go now. That was my bestie calling my name and thank you once again," I said shyly

"Okay Tara, and I guess I would be seeing more of those smiles again right? and do have a nice day." He said with a wink

"Yeah and you too." I finally said

"I wonder what is with that Eric guy and winks.".... I thought as I walk to where Cas was staying.

ERIC'S POV

Tests and exams requires an all round seriousness from students. So Crown Top University students were not left out.

I had BCH 201 this morning and I was paired with a lady but she looked so much like the lady I helped in that class.

I decided to talk to her after the test but little did I know that she would beat me to it.

"Hy," She greeted me nervously

"Hello," I replied though noticing some nervousness in her tone

"Am Tara Banks," She said

"Am Eric Olaosebikan." I finally said with a wink

"Wow, you mean you were the guy that saved me in that BCH class?" She squeeled out of excitement....."I didn't even get to thank you better since you disappear from the class," She said

"Yeah am the one. I didn't disappear nah, the class was over remember?...And moreover, I don't like seeing a beautiful princess in distress, that was why I helped you that day." I said with a wink

There was an awkward silence between the two of us as I said that last statement because I could see her blushing thank God that she is light skinned.

But as soon as I want to break the silence, a lady called her from a far and she use that to excuse herself.

"Hmm Eric, I have to go now. That was my bestie calling my name and thank you once again," She said shyly

"Okay Tara, and I guess I would be seeing more of those smiles again right? and do have a nice day." I finally said with a wink

So that lady was her best friend. I do see her whenever she comes to our lodge to greet her boyfriend. I left the spot to go meet my friends.
