32 ~ [Blemish My Day]

* 1 Month later *

LEERA POV

"Damnn... finally the exams are over" Aria muttered happily letting out a big sigh over the phone.

It's been 1 month and finally we are done with our finals.. finally all the stress is out of my head.

"Yeahh... by the way how about me you and Levi go out somewhere? Like a trip?? These days we all were so stressed and we need to relax after our exams.. right? What do you say?" I suggested

"Sounds fun... let's discuss about that together when we meet... ahhhh" Aria said letting out a yawn which I could clearly hear over the phone.

"Okayy... Tell about this to Levi too"

"Alright" she responded almost sleepy

"Goodnight Aria.. you sound sleepy. Talk to you later" I muttered with a smile

"Hmm.. goodnight" saying that she hanged up.

Things are quite well between me and Aria now. But still not exactly like before. The gap between us is totally noticeable but still we are trying to omit this distance.. or maybe I should say I'm trying. Still it's nothing like she's ignoring me or trying to avoid me but it's true she isn't applying the same effort as me to get back like before. So that we can be just like before again.
But I didn't care much about it as long as I can I'll try my best to make and keep things between us the best.

I grabbed a book and read until I felt contented, free from every stress. After prolly an hour or two I went to bed as sleep engrossed me.

..........

My sleep broke at almost 11.40 AM only because of my phone ringing just beside my ear. I picked up my phone trying to adjust with the light and letting out a big yawn.

I watched the dialer ID. It was my professor. Why is he calling me this early? Wait this ain't early though but I'm still so sleepy.

I composed myself before answering the call.
"Good morning sir" I murmured my voice still kinda sounded sleepy probably.
"Good morning! Leera, I have some words with you. So you need to come by 1.00 PM in the university" He stated
"Okay sir. I'll be right there" I uttered without any idea why am I called to go to university and what kind of words would sir prolly have with me.

I got up from bed as I can't sleep more anyway as I need to go to university too. I made breakfast for myself and Mayra which were just bread and jam. Then we ate together while gossiping. After that I took a shower and got ready for going out.

After finishing the work at university I have to go to my shift at the library as i guess it would be time for it already.

When I reached at the university I searched for my professor everywhere and finally found him.
"Sir, you called me to come" I told him as if he didn't know.
"Leera, the principal wants to talk to you" He said
"About what?" I asked confused

"Why did you refuse to apply for internship in Azel hospital? You know it's the best one. It's such a great opportunity for you. As you are one of the brightest student we want the best for you"
Then finally I understood why he called me here. Few days before I refused to do intership in the Azel hospital which belongs to the great Azezal fucking Pavano. This offer was really awesome and rare. People hardly get this kinda opportunity to do intership there or even work there. But I slightly rejected the offer. Only because of him.

"Sir, honestly I have no interest for doing intership there. There are lot of more good options too" I said lowly

"Leera you are not understanding! This is a really great opportunity that everybody doesn't get. You are getting it cause you deserve, dear. Atfirst we thought they were supposed to take extra exams for that and choose students. We thought they would take some students atleast but they are taking quite less. Even after that you are selected as you are the best and brightest student of this batch. And the owner of the hospital is also the trustee of our university as you probably know. This would be the best" He muttered in one go.
