"and I thought this was going to be fun" I said to beth, my life long best friend who was helping me pack my boxes into my new apartment ,that was after throwing a box roughly to the ground
"It wouldn't have been this hard if only you brought less stuff Lexi" she said putting her box on top of another one and forming a neat stack ,she has always been the organised and not to mention the perfect and good looking one
"do you even plan on moving your entire life into college? " she said while eyeing the already million boxes at the center of the living room
"My things are not that much " I said this while trying to keep a straight face which horribly failed because I bust out laughing
"Yeah they really are not thaaaaat much " sarcasm painted all over that statement as she made sure to emphasize on the "that ", "so have you seen your new roommate ?"
'Not really" I pushed a box away to sit on the chair "but we email each other " I knew what was coming after I said this but I couldn't lie that I had met my new roommate , I am not even sure I can't even tell its her if she passes me by .....I am starting to regret my hasty decision of wanting just anyone as a roommate but looking back I had no much choice
It started when I finally got admission into Stanford college and due to the financial state of my family I couldn't afford to live in a dorm so I had to find an apartment and a roommate who would split the bills with me ,so I kept it up on net and I realized not many people wanted to be roommates with a total stranger
I didn't have much options to choose from , it finally ended up being a girl named Courtney Stones and from her profile picture and her Instagram page she looked sane enough ,at least I didn't have to see a shrek every time I get home
"Gosh Lexi you are one lazy girl " beth said while she also sat down too "I was the one that did majority of the work here " she sat up and looked at me seriously "if this girl turns out to be a Bitch forget karma beth would take care of her " she stood up and gave a ninja kick which she was miserable at
"I won't mind beth after you learn how to open the pickle jar yourself " she stuck her tongue out at me
"I hate pickles so why would I want the jar Open"after giving me a sweet smile
"Whatever ..." I rolled my eyes "you should get going its getting late " I stood up to accompany her outside "oh and before I forget say hi to Mark for me "
"You know you're always free to come visit we would make out in the room and we would keep it down when you are around " she went into her car and started up the engine before waving bye and zooming away
I went back into the apartment and sat down on the couch, thinking about it this college life won't be so bad at least
I have a comfortable home ,the apartment wasn't much but It was comfortable, it had a kitchen big enough but not massively big but just just right and a sitting room with a television ,the wallpapers were cream and gave the apartment a homey feeling
the apartment had two rooms and a toilet In each room ,at least I would have my privacy ,my room was still empty it had a small closet and a desk with drawers by the window it also had a body length mirror and a comfortable bed
I looked at my phone to check the time ,it was 10:55pm and I decided to message my mum just to let her know I arrived safely ,after I was done I stood up and looked at the boxes deciding I would finish up tomorrow I went to my room and laid down on the bed too lazy to shower .
Beth flashed through my mind and I chuckled knowing that although she claimed to love Mark the same way she claimed to truly love her one million and one ex boyfriends she would get tired and still break up with him sad tho and call it a false alarm typical Beth then get a new one the next week
things come easy for her if only they did the same way for me ....
