Myra's POV:

I don't know what was worse. The fact that these annoying flashes of scenes with a young boy and girl keep coming in front of my eyes, or is it that these flashes only come when Ruhaan is near me.

I'm still confused about who Mira is, and how she is related to me.

I'm roaming the streets of London where buskers are playing guitars which touch the strings of the heart. People are rushing around as people finish their jobs and start heading home.

Everything is just as I had imagined when I lay in my bed every night.

I went into many shops until I came to a library. I borrowed a number of books and movies, and once I was satisfied with the amount which I borrowed, I headed back to the campus.

After I greeted Mrs. Jolly, I found myself standing in front of the door titled No. 124 but there was an unusual racket coming from beyond the wooden door, different shades of brown.

I turned the key in the lock and what awaited me on the other side totally caught me by surprise.

Now in the large room, I could tell more furniture had been added like a moderate 32 inch flat screen Samsung TV, two more study tables and lamps, chairs, and some 5 mirrors decorated the wall behind the two beds.

Other than furniture, something else was also added. People?

I moved forward from the place where I stood rooted to the ground, to find Nat sitting on my bed in a puddle of clothes, folding a pair of shorts,

"What's going on? Why are you here? Have the aliens invaded the earth? Is that why you're here?" I questioned as her face became clearer than earlier.

"Oh hi Myra. I'm doing great, how are you?" my brows furrowed in confusion at her statement, "you could've at least greeted me before throwing your list of questions at me" she clarified.

Oh.

"I'm sorry. But what's going on?"

I sat down on Nia's bed as she explained how Amelie and her volunteered in front of Mrs. Jolly for the exchange students to take their separate rooms if they got to share this dorm with us.

Mrs. Jolly was reluctant at first as she was worried how the 4 of us would fit in the dorm, but Nia and Nat protested and finally persuaded her and she changed the registrations.

They had brought along all their belongings and furniture for our dorm. I was so excited because now all of my friends and I were able to share the same space and live together.

It turns out that Nat and I will be sharing my bed, Nia and Amelie will be sharing Nia's bed. 

I helped Nat wrap up her laundry and set her clothes in the closet. Amelie and Nia came up to the dorm after a while to alert us that dinner will be soon and that we shouldn't wait for them because they're on dinner duty.

Nat and I made ourselves look presentable before going downstairs and making our way to the dining hall.

{§}

At dinner we sat around a large glass rectangular table with matching chairs made out of wood and glass. The thing is that the tables at breakfast are two seaters, whereas the dinner tables are each 8 seaters, which would fit our whole group comfortably. 

Nat and Amelie sat across Seb and Francais respectively, with Nia facing Abhimanyu and me, an empty chair. I sighed.

I ate my dinner of Fried Rice in silence as the others talked about random things, until Abhimanyu's reply to Amelie's question caught my attention,

"Ruhaan, uh, he, something came up so he had to go down to meet the principal" he explained, his eyes analysing the expressions on my face. I tried remaining neutral for the rest of the time we were together.

I soon found the girls' and I walking back together to the dorms.

What happened to Ruhaan?

How was it?

Hopefully you liked it, although it was just a filler chapter. I'll try and make the next one more interesting than this.
