Williams
After inspecting the room thoroughly ,I opened the small door at the end and it was the bathroom,it was all neat and sparkling ,i closed the door ,i took a deep breath,it's nothing like my former room and its far from been very comfortable but i can do this ,after all how will i challange myself if i stayed in comfort ,i walked to the woardrobe checked it before I started to unpark my stuffs ,starting with the things i will need.i took out my computer,ipad wbr headphones and placed them on the small table .I opened the first bag, took out the clothes and placed them accordingly and neatly in the woardrobe ,i had practise how to arrange my clothes and stuffs over and over so it became an easy task .i finished unparking my stuffs into the woardrobe then I turned to the table directly next to my bed ,i rearranged the stuffs there creating space where i can read .I turn to the bed ,it was already neatly arranged but I won't sleep on beddings which aren't mine so i took out a set of sheets from my woardrobe and used them to dress my bed neatly after doing all my chores single handedly for the very first time ,i couldn't help but feel grateful to God for my mom , after agreeing to my plan she made sure sebastain and the maid taught me all I needed to know before leaving for school.basic things like folding my coth,making my bed and even cleaning the room,i had never done these things before my decision to come here but the desire I had made me learn them easily.after making sure everything is where I guest it supposed to be ,i collapsed on the bed ,it was nothing like my usual bed but it was still ok,I laid for a while then got up and headed to the bathroom with my clothes for I know this room does not belong to just me so I had to learn this .I ,the bathroom was small but convinient ,walking out of the bathroom fully dressed i picked up my phone and just as I expected I had a good number of miss calls from my mom ,I laid down on the bed before dialing her number which she answered immidiately
Hello mama ,how are you ,I asked her and I was responded with a good number of questions with worry evident in her tune
my love, how did you arrive ,how did you find the campus,how is your dorm ,your roommate how is he,is he nice to you ,are the people friendly and the school.....
My heart warm up as my lips curled into a smile before I responded to my mother ,take a deep breath mama ,calm down mama ok
Ok ...ok calm so tell me love
am fine ,am very ok everything is fine
Are you sure
Still sending the worry in her tune I asked to take a deep breath
Which she did
Am calm now so tell me everything
am ok mama I promise
You sure my love ,you can still come back if it's not comfortable there.
I smiled,I know you are worried and I won't lie to you so believe me ,
Mama, I promise you am doing ok ,I laid down flat on the bed trying to comfort my mom who was so worried than I am about the whole thing ,my dad took the phone from her and he too wasn't sounding at ease Your mom hasn't didn't sleep well last night and she hasn't eaten lunch because she is so worried
Huh really,what about you , have you eaten lunch love don't listen to your dad he is as worried as I am .
Hahaha ,mama,papa thank you so much
You are welcome just take good care of yourself ok ,call us every day especially your mom .my heart warm up for i know these people love and care about me the most in this world
How were you welcome,did it go well were you able to find your dorm easily and your room mate ,is he nice to you .my dad asked again as if he didn't hear my previous respond
Yes papa everything is fine I was able to find my dorm easily because someone helped me ,his name is Eleanor and he used to study at home too
I see what about your roommate is he there can we say hello to him
Emmmm the thing is he isn't here yet but I was informed he is already on campus maybe he is just visiting the campus and will probably come in later
My mom voice suddenly came from the other end
Have you visited the refectory,how does the meals work,hope you are able to use the credit card we arranged to eat what you like and ...
Eat healthy,no sweets and drink plenty water she had repeated this to me over and over again
Ok fine I see you have that in mind am so glad but I can't help to feel worried if there is anything just let us know ok baby ,no secrets you know
My dad took the phone again and we chatted about matters related to my duties before we bid each other farewell and ended the call . laying all alone in the room I said to myself,classes will start the day after tomorrow so it will be better if I tore round the campus and try to get familiar with it ,I will start from the refectory .I setepped out of the room clossing the door behind me ,i followed the coridor back to the lift once downstairs I sighted a group of students so I walk to them and greeted politely hello am trying to get to the refectory can you direct me .they all went silent as they stared at me
What a hottie exclaimed one of the girls I smiled as I didn't know what to respond to that ,I was feeling awkward with their stares and was about walking away when one girl snapped out of the daze and jumped right in front of me introducing herself wearing a bright smile
Hey am Sylvie Brown,am in my second year I can tore you round the school if you want ,i will do it free of charge thats because youbare so handsome
Ummm thank you ,can we go now
She grabbed my hand immediately and responded playfully ,yes handsome
We excused ourselves and started strolling away from the gathering,as we walk Sylvie suddenly asked
Where are you from Williams??
Am from Amsterdam I replied planely,she immidiately jumped on me excitedly
Really I am from Amsterdam too am so glad ,I knew we will really get along the moment I saw you
I realized that Sylvie is a very playful person how can a senior be this carelessly playful someone ,we walk to the refectory and she brief me on how it works and everything the next place was the library we strolled around as she talked none stop but I didn't find her talking boring for she appeared really kind and free spirited,she was about taking me to the classrooms when we were called for dinner,we moved back to the refectory where wr both seperated as we were grouped according to our gender where i sat at the table to have my diner amd it was dine after some slight introduction ,i walk to the table and grabbed my meal when i was about siting down a familiar figure rushed into the refectory it was eleonor he looked so confused so i called his attention and directed him after grabbing his plate of food he came to me
Thank you I had difficulties getting here
I smiled ,I will have called you if I wasn't caught up with time at the library
He smiled and we didn't talk again till we were done , before going back to my dorm I looked for Sylvie and thanked her for her help and also reminded her of tomorrow and she hugged me with a smile
You are so cut how can I say no to you
I left the refectory with leonor he got to his room first so I wished him goodnight before walking to my room ,I tried opening the door but I couldn't , how could I not open the door anymore I said to myself I am not this dum ,I tried a couple of times and I couldn't that's when I noticed a strange pair of shows at the door I was about wandering when I remembered I was supposed to share the room with someone else so I raised my hand and was about to knock when the door open ,a guy who appeared younger than me appeared infront of me looking frightened . after staring at the for some time he opened his mouth to speak in a very low voice
Am...am...am sorry I forgot to pull out my keys from the door it won't happen again
I smiled lightly it's alright ,he was still standing by the door looking scared so I smiled again ,please can I get in
Ohhh sorry....
