It was 2000...Everyone yearned for a fresh start! They were officially done with the 90s. Young Rogers was entering his final year of college; full of aspirations & big dreams. Nothing would stop him! His Arabian uncle had promised that as soon he was done with college, he would start running a few of his oil plants in Dubai. A fat paycheck was just what he needed.

The ladies had already started eyeing him; noticing the latest cars he drove on campus & his fancy apartment in Nashville. Not much of a party guy but he used to attend with a bunch of guys from his fraternity. So tonight there was a Freshers' Bash, not his thing, but his crew had dragged him there.

"Rogers!" one of his friends shouted, "Come here i want you to meet someone!"

He opened the door to his car reluctantly, a blonde half dressed girl grinned & made her way to hug him. She began introducing herself. He just knew instantly. Gold digger Alert! Her cheap shanty clothing screamed that she was here to try and move in with him after a one night stand.

"Good talk Cindy, Sandra?" He wasn't sure what name she had mentioned.

He immediately left, the girl took after him trying to grab him & he fled. He hurried to the back of the sorority house & bumped into someone by mistake.

"Hey watch where you're going!" a girl  screamed.

He realised he had spilled her drink & she was boiling with anger.  Checking behind him to see if that ratchet brought by his friend was still coming after him, he stepped back a bit.

"I'm really sorry i messed you up." He gave her an apologetic look.

"Watch where you're going next time! If you get drunk quickly stay home!" she screamed & took off.

The passion she spoke with, the anger in her eyes, somehow turned him on. He was used to getting ladies who agreed with anything he had to offer. He would even insult them & they would still cling to him desperately.
So he promised he would look for this one. How could she say something like that? Did she even know who he was?
He had to look for her!

Phillipa rushed to her roommate's side to catch up with her so they could go for class together.
"Lara found you asleep yesterday. I need to spill the tea so listen," she grinned. Lara always knew Phillipa's after party stories to be very interesting so she started walking slowly to listen.
"So i had gone to fetch Hannah a drink & from nowhere some lame excuse of a guy bumps into me by the corner of the sorority house," she stopped as Lara eyed her curiously.
"Tell me more, who is this guy? Was he drunk?" she inquired.
"He didn't even look drunk, no trace of alcohol in his breath. Nothing! So i insulted him but he just stood there eyeing me with smoky eyes," she laughed & tossed her head backwards.
"Ah thirsty dudes at this campus," Lara threw her hands in the air & continued, "So he failed to ask for your number nicely?" They both laughed.
"Instead of using great pick up lines they resort to bumping into ladies by mistake. Like in the movies!" They both giggled.
"So who could this guy be? I'd want to see him in person to see exactly how pathetic he is," her roommate said as she opened the door to class.
"Don't ask me," raising her hands & shaking her head; " We don't go for losers."
