It was a sunny Tuesday morning and Adrian decided to go for a quick stroll before classes started. The grass was green, the sun was shining, he hated how he would be stuck inside the campus on a beautiful day like this. "Adrian! Adrian!", his best friend Thomas came running to him. Beside him, there was a strikingly beautiful woman who I hadn't seen before; she must've been a new student. There had been quite a few newly enrolled students coming the past few weeks. "Adrian I would like to introduce you to Grace Monroe. She was my childhood best friend; before I met you that is. She just got accepted at Harvard.", explained Thomas.
"Hi, nice to meet you. I'm Adrian Miller.", he introduced himself and shook her hand.
"I'm really excited to be here. I've always wanted to become a neurosurgeon and now getting accepted into Harvard has really made my family proud.", she said. She spoke quite enthusiastically as if she was really excited to be here. Adrian couldn't help but notice the deep shade of blue her eyes were and they looked quite gorgeous with her dirty blonde hair.
The bell rang signalling the start of classes. Adrian and Thomas had the same classes on Tuesday and Friday mornings; after that, all their classes were separate. After showing Grace to her class, Adrian talked to Thomas about an idea he had the day before. It was a dangerous idea and quite certainly illegal but they would earn more money and nobody would find out. "Thomas I've been thinking. We want to earn more money right? Finishing university will take years. If we want to earn now, well", I talked in a quieter voice so nobody would eavesdrop, "I found a guy. He can easily smuggle things to other countries by boat. He has a whole crew that helps him. In fact, that's how he earns a living for himself."
"Adrian! We can't smuggle illegal items, that would require leaving Harvard.", he protested.
"Of course we're not smuggling! But this guy is powerful. He agreed to sell us a couple of drugs which we can sell for an expensive price. He'll also give us the contact numbers of his customers who would be willing to buy from us. So what do you say? It's dangerous and a big risk but I think it's worth it if we do it together."
"Of course I'll do it with you."
