College Dreaming
Chapter 8

*Myra's POV*

I'm super excited to see who my roommate is!!! OMG, what will she be like? Is she black? Is she short? Is she crazy? Random thoughts about this mystery bitch spark my head. It feels like Ms. Anita is driving at 15 miles per hour.

"Gosh Ms. Anita, can we speed this process up puh-lease?"

Ms. Anita slams on the breaks and looks back towards me. Oh shit, I forgot who I was talking to.

"Girl who in the blue lake hell are you rushing?" She says

"Uhhh, I meant to say Trey."

"Oh that's what I thought."

She puts the car back in drive and we head towards my dorm. A few new minutes later, we arrive at Matthews Hall. Wow, finally I'm here. I grab all my bags, while my mom helps me.

"I'm gonna drop everyone off at their dorms. I'll call y'all when I'm on the way back."

My mom waves at her and she drives off. For some reason my nerves take over. I'm shaking a little bit almost dropping my suitcase as we walk upstairs. Eventually we arrive at room 205. I grab my keys and fumble around with them as I try to open the door. My mom could see my nervousness and grabs my shoulder.

"What are you waiting for? Open the door."

I do as she says and eventually I unlock the door. Its a pretty decent size. 2 beds, 2 desks, this room is pretty spacious. It's bigger than that jail cell of a dorm we stayed in during orientation. I look around and call for my roommate. She must be here because I see her stuff on the bed.

"Hello? Is anyone heeeere?"

Eventually, I see someone walk out the closet.

"Oh hey girl, you must be my roommie. I'm Giselle."

"Well that's a pretty name. I'm Myra."

"Thanks. It kinda rolls off your tongue a little. You're gorgeous by the way."

"Oh thanks hun!!! So are you!!!"

Giselle is a very pretty girl. She's about 5'6, red bone, thick in all the right places black hair that looks like it could be a weave, and brown eyes.

"So where are you from?"

"I'm from South Carolina. How about you?"

"I'm from Atlanta."

Giselle and I continue talking and getting to know each other better. I almost forgot my mom was here.

"Oh I'm so rude. This is my mother, Vivian."

"Its nice to meet you, Giselle. Forgive my rude ass daughter."

"Oh no its fine. I can see where Myra gets her personality from." Giselle says

"Ooop, I detected a hint of shade."

"Oh no shade intended sweetie." Giselle says

"I like you."

"I like you too bitch. Forgive me Ms. Vivian."

"So, do you twerk Giselle?"

"I sure do. I twerk down!"

"Girl me too!!! Me and the bestie Chris do."

"Is your bestie gay?"

"As hell." I say

"Girl mine too!" Giselle says

"ROOMIE!!!"

"SISTER!!!"
