chapter eight

Tessa pov

I got to class the next day all high in spirit from having a comprehensive conversation with Ken covering all aspects of business ethics and I must say I've come to a conclusion about what to do, I walked towards the professor in charge of the project office were I knocked at the door and I got no response from him; I asked if someone was inside before reaching out for the door knob and to my surprise it was locked, I decided to head back to class when I saw few of my colleagues who were gathered around our class billboard, I walked towards it and saw a list of project topic pasted on it.

I skimmed through all the available topic's after which I picked one of it; which I found very suitable for me and centered more on my major after which I took the professor's email address so I could share with him my ideas, I walked towards the cafeteria all smiles on my face while humming a song in my head cause finally I have a lead on my project, and I walked towards the girls who were already having lunch while staring at their phone's.

I sat down with them after which we started chatting about our class and I told them I've finally got a topic which I planned on starting my research work today, while Kyla held my shoulders and shook me several times after which she asked me what was she hearing; which made me looked at her perplexed and I stared at Maddie to give me an hint on what she was going on about which she only laughed about, Kyla looked into my eyes after which she finally said ** that you are dating a guy ** which I found surprising and looked at Maddie who arised her shoulder's while shaking her head.

I held Kyla by the hand and brought it close to my thigh after which I told her everything that happened yesterday, I mean we are not dating it was just having lunch which I found nothing wrong with; after which I got a text from Ken asking me if I've got my assigned topic which I smiled too for his thoughtful gesture while responding to he's text, after which I put down my phone only to seethe girls grinning at me so widely which made me laugh at their gesture and they laughed along with me.

I left the table to go get my lunch after which I had it with the girls and we kept talking about boys which I found interesting for the first time, I soon left for the library along with Maddie who had a tutor at the library awaiting her already; well her dad have always got a tutor assigned to her and now that she's graduating from school she can't help but be pleased at her own effort which she put into studying herself, we arrived at the library soon and she kissed me goodbye while leaving for the study floor whereas I left to find books which will aid me on the project.
