Destined with you

Chapter 2

POV:Ara

Getting down from the plane i walked towards the lobby of the airport so as to get my luggages from the baggage reclaim area, after getting my baggages i went ahead ahead to get a trolley to put all my luggages into it and started towards the entrance of the airport all the while admiring the interior decor of the airport.Getting outside the airport i tried to locate my cab, giving the driver a call he pulled up in the driveway of the airport and started loading my luggage into the trunk of the car,it was still noon and the sun was a bit hot but not that hot to that of Nigeria; settling down inside the car i searched my phone for the adress of the hotel i was heading to and upon finding it gave it to the driver who in turn tried to locate it on his google map.

The ride to the hotel was uneventful as i had only listened to the radio playing in the car but that didn't stop my brain from recalling the handsome man i had bumped into at the airport yesterday,he was a tall and good-looking man with a muscular build which i could tell from the hard contour of his body his eyes were so mesmerizing that i was easily captivated in them at that moment if only he had spoken a word to me i would know if his voice was as captivating as his other features but he was so rude that he didn't even acknowledge my apology with a word,a nod or gesture to show that he heard but instead he just walked away as if i was some…” miss we've arrived” this dragged me out of my thoughts as i looked out the window to confirm if we were in the right hotel and indeed we have gotten to our destination and all thoughts pertaining to the rude guy forgotten as i stepped out of the car and headed towards the entrance of the hotel and a potter came to assist the driver with getting the bags inside the hotel. I walked towards the counter exchanging pleasantries with the receptionist all the while trying to confirm my reservations and she was able to confirm it and i was showed the way to my room ,on getting to my room i opened the door and stepped in and i was impressed by the interior decorations of the room , walking towards the window i looked out and the landscape of the city was nice the scenery and all was mind-blowing, the bed in the room was big and soft,as i was admiring all this i heard a knock on the door and i went to check who it was and it was the potter who assisted with my bags earlier, opening the door he came in and dropped my bags bowing before leaving and i felt like someone of importance .

I went ahead to start unpacking my stuff from my bags and depositing them into the wardrobe while my toiletries was kept the bathroom that was so nice compared to that i was used to back home,i kept my daily necessities on the desk in front of the vanity mirror, after doing all this i switched on my phone and laptop leaving them on the bed,i stepped into the bathroom and begin to undress in order to have my bath as i stepped into the running shower and begin to wash all the day dirt from my body and let my thoughts run wild again. After i was done showering i wrapped a towel around my hair and put on a bathrobe courtesy of the hotel i walked into my room picking my phone up i went through my messages and i saw a message from my new school here informing me to come to the registrar's office the following Monday.

My scholarship is not a regular one, the scholarship i got was for me to get my masters degree within a year so it is only covering my tuitions and any other academic responsibilities but it's not covering my accomodations and all. When i got my scholarship i was so excited and happy but i had other plans for myself and this scholarship was just a stepping stone for me. When i went to the embassy to process my Visa instead of telling the consular officer that was issuing my visa about the scholarship i just told the officer that i was relocating to the United States and it was pretty easy to get because i was already a citizen of the country by birth and through my biological mother, so i wasn't stressed and i got the visa pretty easy without any hassle thinking of all this my stomach grumbles reminding me that i haven't eaten and i decided to step out to get something to eat but before doing that i decided to put a call across to my mother telling her that I've gotten to California and i am already in the hotel, and went ahead to ask after my sibling and how they were all doing after doing all this i opened my wardrobe scanning it for something comfortable that i could put on and later decided on a mom jean and a losed knitted sweater, putting on a pair of canvas, now thinking of how to style my hair in front of the mirror and i just decided on packing it back and adorning it with a single hair pin , after doing all this i looked at myself in front of the mirror once again and deciding i was good to go and i stepped out of the room wanting to satisfy my grumpy stomach.
