Group-chat!
Wtf — Danai
I can't believe this. What do you think they'll do? — Annika
This is NYU, they're probably just putting up a front. He's stable, no harm done. — Idris
Idris is right. Half the school was there. They can't kick us all out. — Royale
Don't worry, I'll handle it. — Damson
Danai and I are on a scholarship. This is specifically why I didn't want to go. — Annika
It's not like we planned for this to happen. — Royale
I can't go back to South Africa. — Danai
You're not leaving, me. I won't allow them to take you, even if that means paying your scholarship myself. — Idris
Neither can I, without NYU, I can't be in my internship, and I need the money. — Annika
You're not losing your internship, or your scholarship, Arewa. I'll figure this out. I told you, not to worry!
The best thing, we can do for now is to stick together, and hope for the best. — Damson
Fine, whatever you say. — Annika

Royale glances at me, as I attain for the door. "I'll be out in 3 minutes.", a smirk reaches Royale's mouth, as my eyes playfully roll, twisting the door knob. Loud creek. "Good Evening Dean. Or should I say morning, I don't appreciate waiting for 3 hours. Forfeiting my beauty sleep.", a smirk increases on my lips, as the dean rolls his eyes. "I don't appreciate seeing your face twice this week."
A chuckle departs from my mouth. "How did you get into the pool, if it was locked? You needed a key. A key, I'm guessing came from someone acquitted with you on the swim team. Perhaps, your friend, Royale." I roll my eyes, it's going to take more than that to get me to break.
"I had no idea where the key came from, and I won't be answering any more questions without relevance to me."
"I see your political science, law path is coming in handy—", A chuckle departs from my lips, as a faint smirk appears on my lips. Finally something worth speaking about.
