As I boarded off the plane with all my luggage.  I gasped at the amazing sight. "I'm really here!" "Step one done" "I can't believe it."

I was brought back to reality when I heard an Italian guy shouted at me to move out the way as he was carrying some luggage
Guy - "EHI TOGLITI DI MEZZO!" (Move out the way!)

I quickly got out of his way and I wondered what my next move would be. Now that I'm here, it feels like I don't know what to do or where to go. I'm glad I did plenty of research to know my way around, being the fact that I have no one to greet me at the airport or help me with me stuff like I see others doing so.

It was night time at this time. So I took a bus to the nearest motel for the night. I was amazed by the magnificent buildings and street lights. I checked in and inspected a bit first, better safe than sorry. I then went to bed excitedly waiting for tomorrow.

~The next day~

I woke up eagerly to start a day in a new country. The place I'd be living in for a few years. Who knows, if I like it enough, I'll stay my entire life. I got my morning routine finished and took a walk around town before checking out to leave for college officially.

The views were absolutely stunning. The streets were busy, all the parks were green and luscious with amazing flowers. 
After my walk, I went back to the motel to collect my stuff and checked out.

I called a cab and requested him to take me to Sapienza Univeristy. From there I was taken straight to my destination. As I stepped out of the vehicle, I was left dumbfounded at the astonishing sight. It had completely left my jaw dropped.

I went inside to be greeted by the receptionist who asked me for my name, she gave me my dorm key and told me I had a roommate. I thanked her and walked to my room a bit hesitantly. The thoughts of a roommate? Had my head in a swirl.

"Will she like me?" "Can we become best friends?" "Will we be close?" "Will she even talk to me?" I was jumped out of my head when I bumbed into someone, dropping on the floor along with my suitcases and bags crashing along with me.

?? - "I'm so sorry, let me help you!"
Me - "ah... it's... it's fine"
?? - "It's not, I'm such a cluts"
Me - "No really, I was the one who wasn't looking."

We both got up as we swapped each other's stuff back. When I looked at her, I saw the most prettiest Italian girl I've ever seen. Her hair shiny black, at shoulder length, tall and had a very nice body figure.

"Swiitt--swoo" (whistle) "Damn this girl is fine" I thought to myself as I stood staring blankly at her, I mean in the most respectful way possible.

Me - "You're so pretty..."
Girl - "M- Me?"
Me - "You're the only one standing in front of me" I giggled.
Girl - "oh uhh... thanks... you're really pretty too"

I couldn't tell if she was blushing or just really hot by the heat. But I just laughed it off

Me - "Izadora Reyes" I said holding out my hand for her to introduce herself.
Girl - "Alessia Romano"
Me - "Nice to-"

But just then I realized my body was inactive as it wasn't moving due to utter shock. "Did she just say 'Romano?" "No, No way she could be related to him." "How the fuck did I forget he was Italian?!" "It's just a coincidence, there's no way I could be talking to a relatatibe of the one person I want completely out of my life!" My mind was filled with thoughts more than ever before. Could this really be happening? I didn't even know what to think anymore.

Alessia - "Uhm... Izadora?"
Me - "I- uh- Nice to meet Alessia. Please, call me Iz"
Alessia - "Oh cool and you can call me Al"

I gave her a smile as we shook hands, pretending everything was ok. I didn't want to ask her about her personal life and I'm sure it's just a coincidence. Hopefully...
