For Roqaya 😘katie_lewis_95
"Baby girl you're more powerful than you think and they fear the day you discover it."
~~~
Roqaya walked to the office with her bag flung loosely on her shoulder. She had approximately 30 minutes to show the new kids around before she had to make it to her first class of the day, Fashion. It was something that she was very passionate about and hoped to have a career in someday.
She turned the corner quickly and carefully stuck her drawing book in her bag when she saw the boy standing at the entrance waiting for her. He looked up from his phone and smiled when he saw her. Roqaya chewed on the inside of her lip and walked over to him. "Hi, you must be Justin?"
He nodded and extended his hand, which she happily took. "Yep, Roqaya?" She nodded. "It's nice to meet you." They both said at the same time, causing Justin to grin and let out a small laugh. "Well I only have half an hour so we better get a move on."
Justin followed quickly behind her as they toured the many places that the campus had to offer. "This is the fashion room, I-I'm in there mostly.." She looked down at her feet and walked ahead of him. Roqaya didn't know where the stuttering came from but she was pretty sure it was because she was a ball of nerves right now.
"This is your first class of the day, English. You're studying to become a writer?" She looked up at him finally and saw what mesmerizing eyes he had.
'Snap out of it, Roqaya.' She thought to herself. 'He probably has a girlfriend anyways.'
Justin cleared his throat and she snapped out of her thoughts. They continued to walk all across campus until they made it back to Justin's last class of the day, music. "Well, I have to get going. You don't have to go to your other classes until tomorrow." He nodded and she quickly took out her drawing book again so that she could put her purse in her dorm room. They both turned at the same time and he nearly fell on top of her.
Roqaya fell to the ground and her drawing book flew in the air, then fell beside her on one of her pages that she had already finished. Justin picked the book up and held his hand out for her to use. She pulled herself up with his hand and tried to get her book back but it was almost impossible because of how tall he was.
"Please don't look at those.." She was slightly embarrassed because she knew that she wasn't the best artist there was and didn't like anybody seeing her sketches. He flipped through the pages with a smile while she felt as if she was about to throw up all over his shiny red shoes.
"Justin.."
"What?" He said, finally looking up from the book. "These are freaking amazing, Roqaya! You're a freaking designer! I-" She slapped her hand over his mouth and frowned. "Stop it, ok? I know they're not good enough to be in the fashion industry..just give me my book back so I can go before I'm late."
Justin handed her the book back with a frown. "Oh come on, they're awesome. I wish I could draw like that."
"You shouldn't be so insecure about your drawings." He mumbled under his breath. "Or yourself."
Roqaya brushed past him with the biggest smile on her face. "I have to go."
Justin watched her walk away with the same smile painted on his. Both knew that this was the start of something special.
Hope you enjoy it babe!
