Olivia and the crybaby

Some things about sky castle university was exaggerated in stories Olivia heard while some things were not emphasized enough. While sky castle is the university of the creme la creme of the society, there are also a large number of people like Olivia who comes from lowly background, Olivia wondered how they entered and how they are managing to pay the high tuition fees. Olivia was to later learn that the management and shareholders of the university offer scholarship yearly to people from less privileged background, Olivia learnt that it's not done out of goodwill but as some sort of coverup to something evil going on, and that is what is not yet clear to Olivia. The tall, huge buildings, concrete pathways, well maintained gardens were all sparkling clean and beautiful but Olivia felt it was soulless. The student there were just random and normal people not some super_human, super_intelligent, super_rich (though some people are actually) students as people in Olivia community make it seems. Lectures has not commenced officially as the students are still returning and settling down from the holiday.

Olivia decided to use the opportunity to observe the students and she discovered a discrepancy between the Rich and the poor students. While the rich students are always walking soulessly and depressed and do everything with lackluster energy, the less privileged are always bubbly, cheerful and active almost like they are grateful to be there. Another interesting discovery Olivia made is that most people are not as rich as they seem to be and most people are not as poor as they seem . This and many other mysteries is what Olivia is about to learn in "Sky university".

On the other hand Olivia's roommate emelda is a weird sort, she is always smiling and throwing and making friendly face at people while they gave her a lukewarm reaction or sometimes they ignore her totally. She is always looking confused, sometimes she will be laughing as if she won a billion dollars jackpot the next second she is sad and depressed as if her whole world is drowning, she even cries for no reason sometimes. One night Olivia woke up to hear her crying, she went over to console her and asked her several times her reasons for crying but she cried the more, when she finally calmed down, she said in tears

" I was passing by innocently, when a stupid nail dragged my new nightie and tore it, now i can't wear it again. Olivia looked down to see the damage caused by the irritant nail and it was hardly a serious damage.

" But this is nothing serious, it's just a little dent, it's hardly noticeable"

"Do you know how much I got this nightie, have you seen this nightie before, do you know how hard it is to get this nightie, i don't blame you because even if you want it you can't afford it, that is why you are so bitter, you are jealous of me right"

"No i am not i just don't want you to cry again,if you Continue crying like this you might get sick and I don't want you to get sick because I care about you, don't worry I am going to mend your nightie".

" Really, thanks you Soo much " emelda said as she started sobbing slowly again
