The first day at the university was
very breath-taking for Aba. This is
the first time Aba had been to such an environment. An environment completely different from what she was used to back in Senior High School.
She looked at the beautifully arrayed street lights that illuminated the campus. She also noticed the avenue trees that were used to demarcate the roads. The asphalt road was also beautiful. This was the first time Aba had seen an asphalt road. The majestic buildings that were erected on the campus was very wonderful. The place really looked organized and magnificent.
Aba stood 5.7 feet tall and had a sculptured figure. Her waist was tapered and had chocolate complexion. A pair of arched eyebrows looked down on sweeping eyelashes. Her large white eyes with a deep-set chocolate brown penetrating pupils made her eyes very sexy. Her delicate ears framed a button nose. A set of dazzling white teeth gleamed as she smiled admiring the scenery of the school. The dimples that were pressed under Aba’s high cheek bones made her smile more captivating. Her black hair flowed over her shoulders as she walked gracefully along the streets of the campus.
When Aba got to her room, her roommates had already reported. Apparently, they were all level 100’s. Erica, Abigail and Stella were the roommates of Aba. Since they were all at the same level, bonding with each other became very easy. Within a short time, they knew a lot about each other.
Aba had never been in a relationship before unlike her roommates who were dating even though they were freshmen. The roomies were surprised to learn that Aba was single considering how beautiful she was.
Aba’s first day at the history class was intriguing. She saw lots of people in her class. She had never been to a class so full of people. Unknown to Aba, a secret admirer had spotted her. Her beauty gave her away. She caught the attention of almost all the males in her class. They simply couldn’t take their eyes of her. Bernard was this secret admirer. He spotted Aba the first instance she entered the class.
Bernard immediately lost concentration in class. He could no longer concentrate on the lectures. All his gaze and attention was on this gorgeous figure that had appeared in front of him. Throughout the lecture, he was seriously thinking of how to approach this beautiful lady that had taken his breath away.
Bernard was impatient for the lecture to end. All he wanted was to be done with the class and approach this beautiful lady. He wanted to ask for her name, phone number and possibly her room number.
Bernard’s prayer was answered. The professor brought the class to an end since it was just an introductory class. Bernard was very excited. At last he could talk to this nice looking lady. He fixed his gaze on her in order not to lose sight of her in the rushing crowd. He moved swiftly through the crowd to get to Aba as fast as possible. He was just close enough to reach Aba when he realized that the lady had stopped.
She was talking to someone. “Who could this person be,” Bernard thought. “Who is this enemy of progress? Damn! I was so close to talking to her,” he lamented within. He went closer to see who had foiled his mission. Upon coming closer, he realized that Aba was talking to the lecturer.
“Really!!! This man too! “The small things wey we small boys go enjoy too he dey want enjoy plus we”. Hmm, I will wait for her outside the lecture hall. I believe she will pass by.” He finally decided Bernard waited for more than thirty minutes, but there was no sign of Aba. He later got bored and left to his hall. He was really disappointed.
Throughout the night, he couldn’t take his mind of this pretty girl he saw in his class. He thought about the dimples that showed when she smiled. This thought went on in cycles that sleep was eroded from his eyes. He was now more eager to speak to this lady that had captivated him so much. The two days of waiting for the history class was to him like years. He just couldn’t wait to catch another glimpse of Aba.
Now, back at Aba’s room, she was finding difficulty comprehending with what the lecturer taught that day. She was up all night trying to understand. That was the main reason she went to see the lecturer after class. The lecturer was very considerate and explained the same thing to her for more than thirty minutes, but she still didn’t get it. “Oh God, what am I going to do now?” she asked herself. “My first day in class and I am already lost,” she said.
Bernard intentionally took strolls around the campus the next day just to bump into his crush by accident. Poor Ben! That never happened. He walked till his toes were hurting but his search didn’t yield any results. He had no other choice than to wait for the next class.
Bernard was full of anticipation on that day, he couldn’t just wait for the lecture time to be due. Unlike him, he got prepared very early. He made sure he wore his best attire and tried as much as possible to look good. He was very conscious of his first appearance.
Bernard arrived at the lecture hall very early, he was hoping to have a chat with his crush before the class starts. He was very disappointed when he realized that he was the only one present. He waited for additional forty-five minutes, but still no sign of the lady. The class was almost in session and everyone was seated except for his crush. She had still not come.
Had his crush Aba dropped the class? Was he ever going to see her again? Those where the thoughts that were running in Bernard’s mind as the lecturer begun to lecture.
