(chapter five)
As I walked out of the matriculation ceremony, I felt a mix of emotions: excitement, nervousness, and a sense of accomplishment. My friend Rita, who had been my friend was by my side, beaming with pride.
We decided to grab some lunch at the campus café, enjoying the warm sun and the buzz of new students. That's when I noticed him – a tall, dark-haired guy with piercing blue eyes, staring at Rita with a goofy grin.
At first, I thought he was just admiring her from afar, but as the minutes passed, his gaze never wavered. Rita, oblivious to the attention, chatted away, laughing and smiling. I nudged her playfully, whispering, "You've got an admirer!"
Rita blushed, following my gaze to the mystery guy. He quickly looked away, his face flushing. We both burst out laughing, and Rita whispered, "I think I've got a secret fan!"
As we finished our lunch and walked across campus, the guy kept popping up, always lurking in the background, his eyes fixed on Rita. It was both amusing and endearing.
Do you know him that was my question I asked her.
She said no 🤷
As the day drew to a close, Rita turned to me with a mischievous grin. "I think I'm going to enjoy this semester." I smiled, knowing that this was just the beginning of an unforgettable university adventure.
