I was furious, like really furious, like really, really furious. I had almost failed in psychology and I had no idea of doing anything to get out of that. This was so unfair or maybe not because I didn't attend any of that class lections and I never study it. It was so boring... The rector called me that day from my football practice, and the news left me shocked. If I didn't improve my grade my scholarship would be taken away. Why did this have to happen like for real?
I walked out of the rector's office, and I put my head in the wall trying to figure out how I was going to make it through this class.
-Bae, what's wrong my Teddy Bear?
That is my girlfriend, Aila. She was the most popular girl in the collage, and I was like really into her. Who wouldn't? Her lips, her body... like a piece of Heaven.
As she tangled my hair with her fingers and stared at me with those blue eyes, I was thinking that she should have taken the pressure out of me by doing so, but never the less I was still worried.
-Aila I am not in the mood-I said suddenly removing her fingers from my heir. -I am almost failing in psychology and if I do I won't be able to stay here anymore.
-Oh my bae, I can cheer you up, come on lets go somewhere where we are alone and I will make you forget about this.
She started kissing me in the neck and she was tempting, very, very tempting. Her blonde hair was hypnotizing.
-I wish bae but I have to go to class now. I have psychology.
-Ouu babe...so bad... ok then keep me in your mind, it will bring you luck.
She kissed me again and then went away in the hall. I stared at her from behind, she was a total blessing... and she ... she ...wait where was I? I should get to class...
With a face so not motivated I entered the psychology class. I checked around and there were two sits left, one near the window and one right near to it. I sat on the window one, so at least I could get to see something else beside the awful sight this class gave me. After taking out my psychology book I started writing nonsense on its cover without paying attention to who was passing near me.
-Excuse me?
I almost jumped. There was a familiar voice I had heard on the halls sometimes speaking about topics I almost didn't understood. It was Jo. She was standing right near me with her dreamy brown eyes staring.
-Yes?-I dared to say.
-Sorry to interrupt but this is where I always sit, can we change sits?
There was no doubt we could change sits. I went to the other one near her.
-Thank you!
She opened her book, flipped a few pages and then looked at me.
- I have never seen you here. Did you just start this course?
-No...umm no... I just haven't got to experience all this yet.
-Oh well welcome then.
Her dreamy eyes... so beautiful... She turned her head from where the professor would speak and started biting her lip while skimming through the book pages.
-I...I...
She turned her face on me kind of surprised.
-Yes?
-I am Leo, Leo White.
She took her eyebrow up, gave a slight smile and then gave me her hand.
-Nice to meet you Leo, Leo White. I am Jo.
-Yes I know.
Her eyes narrowed a bit. I saw her confusion and added: ''everybody knows you... because of your reputation.''
She took her eyebrow up again and widened her eyes. Good explanation dumbass.
-I mean not like bad reputation...I...
She smiled at my embarrassment.
-It's ok. I know what you are trying to say. I have left a lot of experiences to be remembered here, so it not natural everybody knows my name at least.
I smiled in relief.
-Do you have a surname?
She stared at me coldly.
-What do you need it for?
I felt like I lacked air for an instant.
-So...I just... you know...
-Look, I am not identified by my last name; I am identified by my first... That's me. Jo!
-Umm...ok ... I am sorry I didn't mean to offend you.
-No you didn't... I just...never mind...
She flashed a smile and everything was forgotten.
-Good luck in this class ok? Take it easy.
I smiled but she reminded me of the class I was in, and I felt in hell again. I was struggling while the professor was giving the lecture trying to take notes, but noticing how absolutely nothing would ever make me understand anything.
Finally two horrible hours finished and I was ready to go out.
-Mr. White?
-Yes Professor Carter?
-Can I talk to you a second?
I swallowed with anxiety.
-Sure...
After all class left there was me and him.
-Mr. White, as you know you are toward failure in this class, and you know this brings you to the risk of losing your scholarship. I would advise you to come every day in the lectures, and take this class seriously.
- I am trying professor, and I really want to stay in this college. Tell me what I can do to help myself study...please...
-In your place I would ask for help of a friend. I saw you and Ms. Smith chatting, and she is one of my best students. You can ask her to help...
-Excuse me? Who is Ms. Smith?
He looked at me with confusion in his eyes.
-Jo Smith, the girl you were talking to in the begging of the lecture...
-Oh yeah...right...
-As I was saying, you can ask her to help you, and I am sure she won't deny it from you.
-Thanks professor.
I ran through the halls to catch Jo. I even called her name. She stopped and narrowed her eyes a bit.
-Yes how can I help you?
I was catching my breath.
-I need to ask you a favor.
She bit her lip.
-I am almost failing in psychology, can you please help me?
She looked at me and with the lip still bitten smiled.
-Yes of course, what hour and when would you like to meet?
-Umm would it be ok for you if we meet in the students' hall every Saturday and Sunday, for like some hours?
She smiled again.
-Yes I think that would be fine. Around 2 PM is it good for you?
-Yeah perfect...
-Ok then see around!
She left and I was so overwhelmed by her presence even when she left. It kind of made want to explore her smile, and yeah she was truly a blessing!
