Chapter 2
A new beginning.
It was time to start getting ready for school.
The trio had done all their shopping and it was time to relocate to the city where the school is situated.
Maya’s father accompanied her to the train station.
She smiled and waved at her father as she walked into the train.
She was still waving while the train was moving.
Maya’s father walked back home in tears. He imagined his life without Maya.
Maya on the other hand was sad, her father is the only person that has really cared for her.
She left Belinda and Richard behind. They weren’t ready yet. They told her “ they would resume after one week”.
Maya misses her village, father and friends so much that she can’t wait to see them.
“The city is so beautiful”, she exclaimed.
There were a lot of tall buildings, cars and nice houses.
Maya got off the train and took a bus to her school.
Maya took a cab to school.
She got to Clouds University, Scotland.
“ wow” she exclaimed.
“ This is a work of art and a beauty to behold” she muttered.
Maya carried her luggage and walked down the hallway.
A guy ran towards her and helped her with her bags.
I’m Livewell “ he said”
I’m Maya “ she retorted “
“Nice meeting you”, the both said”
Maya went straight to her room. It was on the 8th floor in the girl’s hostel.
She tried to clean up as the place was covered with dust and later she started putting her stuff in order.
Maya called her father, she told him “ she had gotten to school”.
She was having mixed feelings.
She was sad and happy at the same time.
Maya is about to fulfill her dream of becoming a medical Doctor. She loves to care for people, especially aged people and children.
Her dream was based on her experience in her everyday life. Maya noticed that most people above 60 were abandoned in their home with no attention from their family members. It became her dream to become a Doctor and to own her hospital while caring for sick aged people alongside others.
It was also her dream to see her father become the leader of their community as he had done so much for the people.
Maya was preparing for class that Morning when her roommate came in.” I’m Cynthia Peb “ she said.
“I’m Maya” she retorted.
Nice to meet you.
Maya helped her move in and went straight to class.
Livewell on the other hand looks forward to meeting Maya again.
He had fallen in love with her. Maya is a beautiful lady “ he said”.
“Good Morning Professor”, the students said.
I’m professor Grey, your Anatomy teacher, “ he said”.
Professor Grey asked the students to introduce themselves. They did as he said.
Classes ended for that day.
Maya walked into the library to study.
“ grrrrrrrrrrrri” her phone rang.
It was Belinda calling her to tell her she had gotten to school with Richard.
Maya happily ran out to meet them at the gate.
She hugged Richard and Belinda.
She assisted with their luggage and walked Belinda to her room.
She asked about her father and Belinda said “ he was doing just fine.”
Belinda cleaned up the dust in her room and arranged her stuff.
The trio went out for dinner that Evening.
Livewell happened to be at the cafeteria, he walked up to Maya and said “ hello” to her.
Maya introduced Richard and Belinda to Livewell.
They exchanged pleasantries and then ate their dinner afterwards.
Belinda couldn’t get her eyes of Livewell. She felt some butterflies in her belly.
It was time to go to bed.

They were both in political science class.
Classes ended.
