Janice’s POV
The meal card! s**t the meal card, Steven’s here, we are in the same university.
Not again god!Not again. I have had enough in elementary school. I ran to my dorm room and went straight to my bed, under the covers. I tossed and turned until late night and slept for just two hours. The alarm went off. I got up to get ready for my classes. While I was rearranging the bed, the bathroom door slammed loudly startling me. A short girl with shoulder length hair and large frames was standing outside the bathroom. She was wearing yellow and blue check shirt tucked inside white pants. Weird!
“When I came back yesterday, you already fell asleep. Since, we will live together for a long period of time, I feel like it is necessary for me to introduce myself.” She said.
OH! My new roommate
“HI, I am Janice” I said smiling at her.
“Hi, I am Olivia. My major is philosophy.”
She saw my skates and said “Are you from sports major?”
“NO, my…my major is Veterinary Medicine in the agricultural club.” I said hesitating.
“Pretty good” she nodded.
Abby came from the front door carrying large boxes.
“Did you carry them all by yourself?” I asked her.
“How is that possible? A nice person brought it up here and I just picked it up.” She said grinning. A grin that said the-nice-person-was-a-guy.
“How can I meet a kind hearted person?”Olivia said.
“If you run into a guy outside, it doesn’t matter if he is tall, rich, handsome or chubby and round. If you call him “handsome boy “most of them will become a kind hearted person.” She said chuckling.
Let’s try it then, I called matt. “Handsome boy.”I said trying to stop myself from laughing.
Silence!
“Handsome boy?”I said again
“Wait! Nissy. What happened to you? Did I do something wrong again? No matter what I did, I apologize beforehand. You should just call me Matt or Mattson. If that doesn’t do it, just call me stupid. Don’t be like this I am really a bit scared.” He said making me frown.
“Cut the nonsense. Add one more serving of breakfast. And reach the entrance of agriculture club.”I said rolling my eyes.
I wore a white plain top with a denim dungaree and put my black hair into a ponytail.
“Let’s go” I said to Abby.
Matt was standing outside the entrance of the agriculture club.
“Breakfast!”He said handing me a small white bag of coffee and cherry pie.
“Your boyfriend?”Abby said.
“Hey, come over here “Matt said to Abby. “Look into my eyes, am I blind?”
I kicked him hard.
“Nissy, come.” he said to me with a pained expression. “Is she your roommate?”
“What is your intent? Huh!”I said narrowing my eyes at him.
“When she smiled earlier, my hear burst. It’s love at first sight!”He said swooning.
“Friendly reminder: shewas reading an encyclopedia on male sterilization yesterday. “That left him speechless.
“Hey, are you Janice Morgan?” a pretty girl with strawberry blonde hair said.
“Yeah!”
“Manager Smith is calling for you” she said.
Manager Smith calling for me? Why?
“OK, thankyou” I said to the girl.
I went inside the sports department looking for Manager Smith’s office. I entered the door with the sports manager sign.
“Manager Smith you were looking for me? I asked him.
“Yes, I am picking out an assistant for you. I want to listen your opinion” He said.
“I already said before coming here I don’t need one.”I said going out the door.
He stopped me. “Listen! You are the ice queen. Though you can’t skate now but you broke the record earlier. Everybody looks up to you.” “Just look at it for a second. I’ve been going through the application for a long time. Just for five minutes.” I nodded
He came with a file. “This guy, I saw him-in person. He looks really handsome. Your mood just becomes better by looking at him.” I nodded at him while twisting and bending a pen.
“Also this one, he knows martial arts. Later on, he can be used as half a bodyguard.” I nodded still playing with the pen.
“This one’s not good.” That got my attention! I saw the paper he kept aside. The name on it was STEVEN EVANS.
My eyes widened. I picked up the paper and read the name again, it’s still the same.
“I don’t want to have anything to do with him for the rest of my life.”I thought to myself.
”No, this is a once in a lifetime chance to take revenge.” My conscious said.
“I want him” I said to Manager Smith.
“B-But, Steven? Wait.” “What can he help you? He doesn’t have any qualities to be your assistant”
“I –JUST- WANT- HIM” I picked my bag and left.
