You are the one

Chapter three

Back at the university where Barry teaches and Jessie studies, she is asking her friends opinions on how to get her father back to the dating game. "How about making him a dating profile"? Asked her best friend Sarah. "I don't think he would agree to it." Replied Jessie just as the bell rung for the classes to start. "Come on, it's advanced science. We can't afford to be late." Said Jessie to her friends as she got up from the seat." I don't think we have to worry about being late. After all, it's our teacher who is late." Said Matt who happens to be her another best friend earning few laughs among them because it's true yet they adore Ms.Allen because she is their favorite teacher.
Soon they head off to the direction of the classroom, but her head wasn't paying much attention to where she was going and due to that she bumped into few students. She apologized to them and went straight to the classroom and sat down at her usual seat. Soon Barry reached the university in just a nick of time as the bell rung. She thanked Eddie and told him to be safe and headed straight to her class. When she went into the classroom, Jessie saw her and immediately thought "that's it. She is perfect and is capable of having an intelligent conservation with my dad." But the only problem of convincing her dad to go out with her. Not to mention, how on the earth she is going to get her teacher to be on board with this stupid and insane idea. As the class continued, Jessie found it much difficult to concentrate on her studies because she was thinking of different ideas on how to get these two meet each other.
Soon the bell rung indicating the class has finished just as she was about to go out with her friends Ms Allen called her "Jessie, can you wait behind for one minute. I need to talk to you". Jessie nodded her head to her friends to indicate to go on without her that she will catch up with them later. She went near the teacher's desk and just as Barry opened her mouth to speak a phone started ringing. It was Barry's phone, she quickly glanced at the caller id it was Eddie. "Excuse me, I need to take this call. Sit down and wait for me." Said Barry and quickly accepted the call. While she was waiting, she heard her teacher accepting an invitation to go out to the new restaurant that has been opened recently. The moment she heard it, an idea begin to form in her mind. It might be the crazy idea she might ever had. But it's worth the shot. Hopefully it will work and everyone involved in this idea might forgive her if this idea becomes successful. Soon she heard her teacher saying bye to the caller and quickly composed herself so that she doesn't look like she was listening to the conservation. Barry turned towards Jessie "what happened to you today? I noticed that you were not listening to my lecture. Other days, you would raise your hand to contribute to the class discussions." Asked Barry in concern. Jessie was torn in between because how can she say that she was planning a blind date between her father and Barry. "I already know the content so i was pretty much zoned out. Sorry it wouldn't happen again." Lied Jessie feeling guilty but this is much more important. "It's ok but in future please don't do it again." Said Barry smiling at her favorite student. Once they finished talking, they headed out towards the door before they went to their separate ways Jessie dared herself to ask a question to her teacher since it has been bothering her ever since she had this idea to accidentally meet her father and teacher at the restaurant. "Um, Ms.Allen can i ask you a question"? Asked Jessie before she could chicken out. "Yeah sure. You can ask me anything." Replied Barry with a smile.
