Whatever He Wills. (A Desi//Muslim Fiction)

Chapter 2 : LondonVibes

-------------------------------------
[Layla's POV]

It took roughly about 2 hours for us to arrive to where my University accommodation was based. I instantly felt the need to puke. I think this was the most nerve racking moment I've experienced in a long while.

I started to unload a couple of bags from the boot and hesitantly walked towards the entrance of my student hall with 2 bags on my wrist. As I walked in the first thing I notice was a crowded lobby, filled with a bunch of Students chattering amongst themselves. I saw that there were heaps of large cardboard boxes and luggages loaded up in trollies .

Right after I checked in, I had a couple of staff help me to take my things to my room. I was put in a room on the 2nd floor of the building. I had to climb a flight of stairs before I reached my flat.

The corridor seemed very quiet at that moment. Supposedly because my flat mates were busy setting up their rooms. Once I got to my door, one of the staff opened it up for me with their key card.

I walked in, my eyes scanning around each surface and corner of the room. The room came with an ensuite. Thankfully I managed to get one with an ensuite I couldn't stand the thought of sharing a bathroom with people I just met. Who knows what kind of nasty stuff I'd see end up in there.

After an hour, my mum had gone I was left all alone to finish off setting up the room that I'll have  to call it mine for the whole year.

I had my pin board decorated with pictures of people from back home such as my 2 best friends Laiba and Aaliyah. I also had pictures of family and some motivational quotes from google. My room was starting to look very cosy now.

After I was done with getting my whole room ready I took pictures of it and sent them to the Whatsapp group chat withi Laiba and Aaliyah. I promised them that i'll update them with everything that goes at Uni.

Later that day I had a chance to meet some of my flat mates who seemed quite nice however, bare in mind this is the very first time I'm meeting these people therefore, I don't know how they're really are. I just hope there's no silly dramatic nonsense. But realistically speaking I doubt that

Ok enough with my negativity I decided to step out of the building to go out and explore the campus for a bit. Before getting out of my room I made sure everything looked neat and intact. I gently closed my door and swiped it with the key card. I honestly thought these things were amazing, so technological and stuff.

I rushed down to the front lobby it was a lot calmer now since people have already started to move in. I walked out after signing out at the front desk.

I walked along the pavement slowly looking around as I wanted to be wary of my surroundings. This part of London seemed less busy than central but there were still a lot of cars and people about and of course they were mainly students.

My accommodation was only a 10 minute walk from the University building. I walked through the front arched gates of my Uni and slowly walked up to the quad. I kept seeing students walking in and out of the building in groups and some individually.

I walked over to the building wall and leaned against it while watching people walk past me. After a few moments went by I saw a person from the corner of my eye. It was a guy he stood a few meters beside me, he had a phone on his hand. I could just about see him staring towards me.
