Only in my dreams

Chapter Five: Reality Bites

One thing about heartbreak is not just losing a lover but also a friend whom you trust and confided almost everything to, including sharing your happiness with him. But what made things worst was that I lost few of my valued friends. I don't know why, but maybe for some reason they can explain. But whatever their explanation is, I just can't accept things right now. I just can't.

When reality bites, it stings.

I didn't noticed my mom is already inside my room and staring at me while I was deep out of my consciousness staring outside my window while lying on my bed.

"What are you thinking my child?", mom asked. I was stunned "Mom..." I said exasperated, "did anyone taught you to knock before coming inside someone else's room?", I answered instead. "This is my house Summer Marie Garchitorena and now, I want you to know that you still have until tomorrow to fix your things for school. This is not a request, it's a command or you start to bid good bye to law school", mom said in a berating tone. 'Omg! This can't be', I told myself. "Mom, I'm still on search for school where i can transfer, can't it wait?", I pleaded.

"It's taking you so long Sam...now, me and your dad wants you to hurry up because you will be leaving the day after tomorrow", mom answered in a way that she's trying to hold her temper. "But mom...I still haven't seen some of my...", mom cut me before I finished my sentence, "No buts Sam...just fix your things, your papers and you'll be in the island soon", mom said.

"Alright then...", I answered instead. What to expect, I wanted to get though this whole mess that I made soon.

Ever since the break up, things were different. Dad is more stricter as if I have nothing else good to do, mom, she said I'm giving her headache. Okay then, that is so me.

I went to another university just near my previous school just because i can't afford travelling for more than an hour ,however, it's far from the two bimbos.

As I walked near the university, things starts to get weirder. I don't know. Something is yet to come, I felt. I asked the guard from the gate, "where is the college of law sir?", the guard answered feeling refreshed and smiling, " just turn right ma'am, the first stairs that you will see will lead you to the college". "Thank you,sir", I politely said with a smile.

As I walked up, things became more intense deep inside me. I don't know, but for some reason it makes me feel excited but at the same time scared. I saw a long path walk towards the classrooms, it creeps me but somehow the aura of my prospective school makes me feel refreshed and it's like a light from the dark path, it gives me a flicker of hope about everything about me which is devastated. I walked along the path, along the corridor of the classrooms, I turned right walked a little more until I reached the dean's office. I stood up for awhile outside, regaining my strength that the past incident got from me. I saw a man heading towards me, he opened the glass door "Good afternoon ma'm. anything I can do for you?, he asked. I thought for a while," yes", I answered. "Please come inside", the man said. As I carry myself inside, I felt that the flicker of hope is growing more and more.

I inquired about the requirements and asked about the date of enrollment after I took their entrance exam which of course I passed. Haha..:-D

"Please be back a week before the start of the school days so as not to waste your time waiting for the schedules Ms. Garchitorena also please don't forget your requirements", the dean's secretary said.

"Okay. Thank you Monsieur", I answered perkily and then I went out hurriedly. I was already outside the dean's office when my phone rang. My eyes rolled up "tsss...and who are you calling at this time in the afternoon", I asked aloud to myself. I was still holding some of my credentials when I decided to look for my phone inside my bag while trying to put my papers as well while walking. I stopped and again, I checked every point in my bag where my phone could possibly be while it continuously rang, I got pissed to one of the papers stuck inside my bag so I got it again and then I saw my phone, I was about to turn left when I bumped onto something because I was trying to get my phone. Because of it some of my papers slipped onto my hand and so as my phone, "oh! Goodness!", I muttered when I turned on to my stuff on the floor.

It's not really something, it's someone I bumped on to. And I bumped on his chest. But since my phone and my papers are scattered on the floor, I need to get them. I didn't bother looking to the face of the person who bumped me. "I'm sorry", he said while helping me get my papers scattered on the floor and when I was about to reach to my phone, he was reaching for it too to give to me. Our fingers nearly touched, but I was aloof and a bit shy, I got my phone as fast as I could, "it's okay, I'm sorry too", I told him. I didn't look on his face when he gave me my papers because I am already focused with my phone, "why?", I snobbishly asked the person from the other line. I took the papers the guy was giving me "thank you. Excuse me", I told him with a shy smile and then I turned my back from him while talking to the person in the other line.
