Foreigners of Love

3.5

Yara's POV

I have officially completed my first week of college. I mean I believe that it's a great accomplishment. Auntie Jesica dropped me off a couple days ago and since then I've been trying to keep a routine. I wake up, do what I need to do when it comes to my hygiene, put on a cute outfit, and do some natural make up looks, and try to enjoy my day.

I currently reside in room 232B. I live in a suite and may I say how lucky I am that I only have 1 roommate. The triple is next to me and the girls already had a tif since they each a different sleep schedule. From the looks of it,  one of them is going to moving out pretty soon. Whatever happens doesn't harm me cause I'm not close to neither my suite mates or roommate.

As promised, Lucas showed me around campus and has checked up on me a couple times during the week. Honestly, he is so nice and I truly feel like I could depend on him if I ever needed help. Plus, he has already told me that if I needed help in chemistry or calculus, he's the man.

But honestly, physics is what needs my attention. As of Friday, we started going over kinematics and I am already lost. Plus, this cute boy in my class is not helping me. I can barely concentrate as it is. It's not helping that Sila's sexy self sits in front of me. I've only caught quick glances of his face, but based on his backside, he has a pretty good sense of style. Let's not forget that ass. He has a pretty nice and plump one. It got me wondering if he played any sports in high school. It's way too plump for someone that is not active.

But don't get it twisted. I don't go crazy when he's around. Things don't move in slow motion. I don't ironically trip on air and immediately fall into his arms. We don't make eye contact and become obsessed with each other. We're two college freshmans in class, and I just happen to be the girl that has a crush on him. We have yet to talk and I don't plan to sneak a note in his bag that states my feelings for him. Well, atleast not yet. I need to pass this class first.

"Ms. Havensworth do you mind explain to me Newton's third law of motion?"

"Newton? Ummm Law of Inertia?"

"Not quite, Ms. Havensworth if you want to pass this class I suggest you pay attention. You do know you have a quiz next week?"

"Yes sir I am aware."

I was lying straight out of my teeth. I had no idea. How do we have a quiz already?

"Good, now as I was saying. Newton's third law of motion is the law of action and reaction. This law states that........"

On that note, I immediately started to take notes and halted my thoughts about Silas. If my mom finds out that I failed a class I wouldn't hear the end of it. She'll continue to mention how I'm wasting money and how I could of went to the community college. There's nothing wrong with going to a community college, but I mean I just want to spread my wings, you know?

"Excuse me, you know class is over right? You've been sitting here while everyone is making there way out"

Looking up, I came face to face with Silas himself. My heart is beating faster than I thought it ever could. But he doesn't need to know that.

"It's alright. I don't have class until later on in the day. I was going to just get a bite to eat after this anyways"

"Alright. Well, bye. I actually have class"

As if it's a reflex I instantly grabbed his harm to stop him.

"What's your name?"

"Silas. Silas Vans. Why?"

I knew. I just wanted to make more of a conversation with him.

"No reason. It doesn't hurt to make friends"

"Friends? Usually people don't want to be my friend"

"Well I'm not just anybody. I'm Yara. And didn't you say you had a class to go to?"

"Oh shit! I got to go"

Huh. Who knew I would like the sight of his long hair being blown by the wind when he's running.

Well, chocolate muffin here I come.

On the opposite side of where my physics class is located there is a little cafe that the school has developed for the fellow students. The muffins there are scrumptious and the fruit smoothies are amazing! This little cafe is my go to place to do my homework whenever I have a break. I thought it would be a pretty good idea to go over physics while I'm eating. I wasn't playing when I said I can't fail the class.

"Is this seat taken?"

"No, go ahead"

It got slightly awkward when she sat next to me but I ignored it and placed more of a focus on the practice problems in the physics textbook.

"So what's your name?"

Without looking up I told her my name.

"I'm Kenlai, a business major. Do you dorm here?"

Okay. I get the hint. She wants to socialize. I'm going to have to look away from the textbook for a few minutes. So I tried to put on the most genuine smile so I can answer her questions.

"Yeah I do. Why?"

"Me too! The residence hall right behind the cafe. What's your major?"

"Health Science with a minor in Biology"

"Okay. I'm going to have to confess. I usually can conduct more of an interesting conversation. It's just that when it comes to new people I get totally nervous and awkward. So I'll start again. My name is Kenlai, I dance and work out in my free time. I'm not a gym freak tho, and I love getting some McDonald's once in a while. I listen to rap music, I'm usually nice but still not a person to fuck with. Is that a normal introduction to make with someone you want to try to be friends with?"

"Well damn! Okay! I'll take it! My last class ends at 4. Do you want to meet back here again and try to have more of a comfortable conversation?"

"Yes totally! You know, my mom was right! I should totally go up to people more!"

"Right. Can we talk when we meet again? I really need to go over physics right now."

"Oh right. Of course. See you later Yara!"

"Later!"

Well that went more normal than I thought it would. I thought homegirl was about to ask me some freaky questions. On the other hand, I hope she's not a totally psycho because I did invite someone I didn't really know to hang out with me. I'll look at it like I'm going on an adventure, it's less stressful that way.
