A Love Like Ours

CHAPTER 1: New Chapter Of My Life

SAIGE

I had just moved here today after weeks ago coming and finding a place to live at since I missed my window for getting a dorm. When I finally found a place, I was so excited and then when I met who put the AD up looking for a roommate, after meeting her, I knew right away I was going to love it because I instantly loved her.

Her name is Maritza and is the same age as me and is also studying to become a teacher as well, making us have some classes together.

She reminds me though a lot like Salma Hayek with her long thick gorgeously dark hair that was nice and shiny along with her physique perfectly curvy while I was curvier than her with a little bit of a tan and had medium to long dark hair with some red tint in it.

Today after unpacking everything which I didn't have a lot of stuff anyways but she was still nice enough to help me out. We both sat in the living room and started talking and getting to know each other.

Then we both realized we were really hungry and she suggested we head down to her family owned restaurant. I offered to drive even though it wasn't too far away but still.

When we arrived and walked inside, you could instantly tell you were in a historical place and a true authentic Mexican restaurant from the smell of the fresh tortillas that were being made near the front entrance that you could watch while they were being made, to the paintings and photos all over the walls along with the decor. The colors were bright and beautiful, I loved it.

The most fascinating part to me however was more when as soon as we walked inside, all the waiters and several of the older customers looked at her and greeted her.

We started heading to the back in the kitchen where she walked up to a man who looked to be stocky and had a little bit of hair on the sides and no hair on top while trying to cook some food.

"Hola Papa!" She greeted him with a hug and kiss on the cheek as he did the same with her.

"Who is this?" He asks as he looks over and sees me.

"This is my new roommate, Saige." She introduces us.

"It's nice to meet you." I smiled while shaking his hand.

"You as well." He smiled.

"Well there is she is." We hear a lady with glasses who looked to be in her mid forties also come up and hug Maritza with a kiss on the cheek and smile also.

"Hola mama! This is my new roommate, Saige. We go to the same university." She introduces me and her.

"It's very nice to meet you. I love your restaurant." I compliment.

"Thank you. Are you both hungry?" She begins asking us.

"Starving." Maritza replies dramatically.

"Well I can't have anyone go hungry especially my daughter. So go have a seat and we will bring out some delicious food." She says.

So we make our way out the kitchen and while on our way towards a booth nearby, we stop by the fountain drinks area and grab a drink then go and take a seat.

When the food came out I just couldn't wait to dive in. There was so much of it but I loved it.

As we started eating I couldn't help but try a little bit of everything and oh my god, was more than delicious. There were no words at how much love also went into it.

So we hung out there and ate while talking some more and then before we had left, Maritza's mom had mentioned a gathering over the weekend at her house and invited me to come along.

Which I thought was sweet even though she had just met me and everything.

So far, I'm starting off my new life on a good note.

Next chapter will be posted soon! :)
