Milan followed along as her professor talked about the different learning techniques that children used. She was studying to be an Elementary School teacher, she was very passionate about it.
Milan jotted down the notes from the PowerPoint as her professor gave extra details about the learning styles.
"And as you all probably know, kinesthetic learners learn best by doing physical activities." Dr.Anderson stated. "We're going to stop right here today."
There was a lot of rustling as the young adults got ready to leave the classroom. Milan placed her notebook and writing utensil in her back then got up out of her seat.
When she walked out of the classroom she grabbing her phone out of her tote bag.
She noticed that she had a notification from Paris telling her to come to the Pitt, which is a place that students could go for other food besides the cafeteria.
There was also a gaming area and some space to eat and do work if needed.
While she walked Milan checked the message that her mom had sent that contained a picture of her and her little brother. From the looks of it, they went out to eat. Milan hearted the message and complimented her family.
Milan felt a hard bump that made her look up from her phone. She had collided into an unknown guy.
"My bad, I'm so sorry." Milan instantly grew embarrassed.
The boy huffed in irritation even though he was on his phone as well, he looked away then at the girl in front of him.
"Nah, you're good. Just watch where you're going the next time." He shook his head and made his way to his class.
Milan rolled her eyes and made her wait to the Pitt. The walk was short, thankfully.
When Milan made it inside the crowded building she sighed. She needed to sit down expeditiously. She made it to where the seating areas were located and found Paris sitting scrolling on her phone.
"Hey." Milan smiled as she sat across from her.
"Hey girl, how was class?"
"It was good, did you get something to eat yet?"
"Nah. Not yet. You wanna get something?"
"Yeah."
"Ok, before we go I need to talk to you about something."
Milan's face screwed up in confusion. She didn't know what to expect, when people said that it made her nervous.
"Ok, what's up?"
"So I heard you and Elijah got it in the other night." Paris smirked.
"What!?" Milan was really confused now. She didn't do anything with Elijah .
"Girl, it's ok. We're all grown here. If you did you did." Paris shrugged.
Milan breathed in deeply before putting her face to her head, shaking it. She didn't like that Elijah was lying.
"What's wrong Mil?" Paris asked.
"It's just that, I didn't do nothing with him. At all." Milan said, she was now getting irritated meaning her eyes were watering.
Paris felt bad, she didn't mean to upset her. "Wait, don't cry." Paris walked over to Milan and hugged her.
"That's very fucked up of him to do. Terry told me last night that Elijah said that bullshit, I should've known he was lying. I feel like you would've told me."
Milan had never been in this type of situation before. She didn't know whether to confront him or let it blow over.

"Ma, I promise I did anything to that girl. I just told her that I didn't want to be with her."
Sean paced back and forth in his room as he talked to his mother who was giving him a lecture. Zoey had contacted her and told her that Sean had played with her feelings and lead her on.
Sean scolded himself for even introducing the two.
"Look, I know you probably didn't mean any harm but you got to be careful."Angela expressed.
"Well since she's telling you everything did she tell you she fuc- destroyed some of my clothes and shoes?"
"What!" Angela couldn't believe it. "Are you serious?"
"Yes ma!"
"Listen, I'm going to talk to Zoey and let her know she was wrong for that. I don't want you messing with her and I'm going to tell her the same."
"Alright ma."
"Don't let these lil girls be your downfall Sean. You're up there for a reason, I love you."
"I love you too."
Sean ended the call and plopped onto his bed. He promised himself he wasn't going to get himself into anything like that again.
