Rrrrinngggg rrrinngggg!! My morning started with a noisy alarm ringtone which I never bothered to change for some reasons or maybe I was too lazy to do that. It was the first day of my university as a freshman and I was quite excited to learn new things and explore some university life. I got up from my bed and called my best friend Luke to wake him up from his beautiful sleep. "Hey sleeping beauty" I said. "Bro how did you manage to get up so early?" said Luke in a raspy voice. "Maybe coz today's the first day of university" I said. "Well let me get freshen up I'll see you in university" Luke said. "Alright see ya" I said.
After getting ready I went downstairs to have my breakfast. My mom made some eggs and bacon. My dad was an army so he hardly came home but I was close with my dad he called me and mom whenever he got time and would say how much he missed us. We missed him too. I sat down and greeted my mom good morning. "Honey, are you excited for university?" Mom asked. "Yes mom and also quite nervous" I said. "It's okay honey everyone feels that on first day just be yourself and study well. Alright " said mom. "Yes mom" I said and finished my breakfast and waved my mom bye and went for university in my bike which my parents gave me in my 18th birthday.
After a ride of 30 minutes I reached my university. Oh! Right I forgot to tell the name of my university. Stephen's University of Management and Technology. SUMT in short.
I parked my bike and made my way through entrance and there was a lot of commotion and many new faces. I met Luke on my way and we went to our first class.

"Bro how have you been?" asked Luke. We were meeting after almost a month since Luke was in his grandparents' house spending his holidays. "I'm fine bro. How have you been?" I asked. He said the same. "Bro since now we are university students don't you think we should explore things?" Luke asked. "Sure, why not." Luke smirked and said "By exploring, I meant to say finding love too." I laughed and said "No Bro, I'm not interested in it right now and love doesn't need to be searched it comes to you at the right time." Luke nodded and said " You're right. I support you bro". We entered our classroom and there were almost 10 students in my class so far more to come. Our professor entered and asked us to introduce ourselves to class. One by one everyone did and it was getting boring until I saw this girl. Those beautiful hazel eyes of her, her beautiful brown hair and the mesmerizing smile of hers I could look into those eyes and never get tired. "Good morning everyone I'm Emilie Burke" she greeted and I don't remember her speaking the rest of the intro because all I could see was her looking so beautiful I actually forgot I was in a classroom. "Hey bro... ? Robert.. Robert bro?" Luke whispered to me "I have been calling you for like a minute what's going on?" Luke asked. "Nothing bro...nothing I was thinking about something" I claimed. By then Emilie finished her introduction and now it was my turn to give introduction. "Hey everyone its nice to meet you all I'm Robert Miller and I'm from LA and my hobbies are photography and riding bikes. I hope we'll be good friends." " Good boy, now you may sit in your place" said Professor. I nodded and came back to my seat. Emilie sat diagonally from me and I could see her listening attentively to lecture and me? I don't know I feel like I could watch her all day but I decided to listen to lecture or else Luke would have sensed something was going on.
Our first class got over and now we had to go to another class. Luke had micro economics whereas I had applied chemistry so we parted ways and headed for our next class. We only had English as our common class with Luke.
I entered the classroom and saw Emilie sitting at the last sit. Beside another sit was empty so I took the chance to sit next to her. I sat down next to her and greeted "Hey, Emilie right?". She smiled and said "Yes and you must be Robert". "Yes that's me" I smiled back and said. By then our Professor entered the classroom and the next class begun. After an hour our second class got over. "So what do you have after this?" I asked to Emilie. "I have maths " she replied. "Same here" I smiled. We had our break before lab so I decided to talk to her during our break. "Will you mind if we sit together for lunch in food court?" I asked. "Sure, why not "she replied. "Well let's go then" I said. We made our way towards food court.
We reached our food court and Emilie asked "Where have you done your schooling Robert?". "I did my schooling here in LA" I said. "What about you?" I asked. "I did my schooling in Japan. "My birthplace was in Japan because my mom is Japanese and I grew up there. "That's really cool" I said. Emilie smiled. "Hey, since we are enrolled in same course how about we exchange our numbers we can help each other in studies and projects as well" I said. She looked at me and nodded. "Yes, we can do that since now you are my first friend here in university" she said. I smiled back at her. "Yes of course".

We talked a lot in those 30 mins and I got to know that she was an "A" grade student in chemistry whereas I was not fond of chemistry much. She told she could help me improve my chemistry and I agreed on it as I wanted to know her and spend some time with her. It was a golden opportunity for me.
30 minutes were almost done and we were about to leave food court when rriingg rriinggg.... It was Emilie's phone. "Robert, if you don't mind I have to attend this call can I catch you later" she asked. "Alright no worries" I said and went to my next class.
