Now, there stood the lonely Selena in the bustling streets, her heart filled with anticipation. She had left behind the familiarity of her previous surroundings, convinced that this new place held promise and opportunities far greater than the last. She gazed at the enormous building before her, its grandeur and architectural beauty overwhelming her senses. It was, without a doubt, quite amazing.

Taking a deep breath, she took a few tentative steps forward, feeling the weight of the moment. Just as she was about to move ahead, a voice stopped her in her tracks. It was the watchman.

"Hey, I've met you somewhere, hottie," the watchman said, his tone casual yet flirtatious. Selena froze, not because of his strange remark, but because of his striking appearance. He had an oval face with meticulously plucked eyebrows, stern and piercing eyes, a prominent nose, and well-defined cheekbones. His small ears and round chin were complemented by a hint of an adolescent beard. His clothes were rugged and masculine, and he exuded an undeniable coolness.

"Hey, sweetie, I'm talking to you," he repeated, his voice dripping with charm. Selena snapped out of her daze, her cheeks flushing slightly.

"Yeah—I mean, no, I've never met you before, si-sir," she stammered, her voice betraying her nervousness.

"I don't know if we've met, but maybe I've seen someone like you before," he mused, his eyes scanning her face as if trying to place her in his memory.

"Yeah, it's nice meeting you, by the way," she replied hastily, then rushed past him.

 It wasn't that she didn't want to talk to the cool watchman, but she was already running late.

As she entered the university grounds, her eyes widened in awe. Everything she had heard about this place was true. Oxford University stood tall as the epitome of excellence and opulence. Its sprawling campus, adorned with majestic buildings and manicured gardens, was a sight to behold. It wasn't just the most prestigious university in the country; it was also the wealthiest. Its reputation for academic prowess was matched only by its lavish endowments and state-of-the-art facilities. 

From cutting-edge research centers to luxurious student amenities, Oxford spared no expense in providing the ultimate scholarly experience. Its halls resonated with the voices of the brightest minds and the clinking of glasses at glamorous fundraising galas. As the crown jewel of higher education, it attracted scholars and students from far and wide, cementing its status as the most famous and richest university in the nation.

Selena's thoughts raced as she strolled through the campus, her heart fluttering with excitement and wonder. 

"I've come here with so many hopes, and this place feels perfect" 

She mused.

"My last place  was cool and luxurious, but there's something uniquely different about this university. Is it the elevated sense of academia, or perhaps the fact that even the watchmen here are handsome? I can't quite put my finger on it, but there's definitely something magical about this place."

She stood in the heart of the campus, taking in the grandeur around her. It was the most magnificent place she had ever seen. 

"So huge and beautiful"

 She thought, her eyes darting from one stunning building to the next. Just then, someone disturbed her reverie, placing a hand on her shoulder. She turned to see who it was and felt her breath catch.

"he is so cool"

 She couldn't help but think , looking at the person before her. His veiny hands and confident stance made a strong impression on her. For a moment, she forgot where she was, lost in the excitement of her new beginning at this incredible university.
