[Story] The New Girl – Episode 2

“Susan! Susan!! Susan!!! Wake up, aren’t you having lectures today?

Susan’s roommate Cleo asked.

“Uh, What’s the time?” Susan asked in a sleepy tone.

“Its 7:37am” Cleo said.

“What!!! 7:37am? Oh my God am gonna be late to my first lecture” Susan

said hurriedly getting out of bed into the bathroom.

Susan hurriedly brushed her teeth, took her bath and was getting

dressed when the door suddenly flung open and Tania came in.

Tania: Hey!!! Girls (smiling).

Cleo: Hurray!! The night crawler is back.

Susan: (laughing) Cleo, that wasn’t nice. Anyways, welcome Tania.

Tania: Thanks Suzy. Don’t mind Cleo, she is just jealous of me and for

that, she isn’t having any of the pizza i bought (smirking at Jane).

Cleo: Huh!! Did you just say pizza? (Smiling) Oh Tania baby, i was

just joking when i called you a night crawler, am sorry Okay.

Tania: (laughing) You really do anything just to have food, anyways,

here it is (opening the pizza). Hey!! Sus, you want some?

Susan: Would love to but am gonna be late for class so maybe next time.

Tania: Yeah!! I get it, Don’t wanna be late on your first day, by the

way, where is Nicole?(Cleo’s twin sister) i haven’t seen her since i

came in.

Cleo: (with food in her mouth) Ouh she went to get something ouh, she

will soon be ouh back but i doubt if she will be back before this ouh

pizza finishes.

Susan: Ah Cleo, don’t talk with food in your mouth.

Cleo: (tongue out).

Susan: Anyway, am off to class, see you guys later, BYE!!

Tania & Cleo: Bye Girl!!!

Walking down the road, Susan thought about her past, how she is from a

poor background, how she managed to get into the school on a

scholarship held by the school and how it was gonna be like going to a

high standard university. Susan knew she had to be focused in her

studies so as to get good grades, find a job and lift her family away

from poverty.

She soon got to class and found a sit right beside the window and

settled down there admiring the architectural design of the class when

she felt the presence of someone beside her. She then slowly turned to

find a pair of eyes staring down at her.
