Third-person POV:

Every individual in the college was astonished by Augustina's outstanding performance. It was not like she is not a good lecturer but now, each stride of her has a graceful gesture, a more happy and content flamboyance.

Augustina was so happy from within. She felt good and heartily confident. Maybe, it's the love that has been sprinkled upon her existence. The very feeling she craved for all these years.

It's not like she is ready to jump right into the mess of a relationship, a bond of label or anything but somehow she knows she can slowly brace herself. It's inevitable as her crush might grow into something eventually.

People around her felt the positive vibes coming from her. Her students were extremely glad that their professor is not really overworking herself. They love her friendly strictness and they definitely care for her. They were elated to see Augustina self-caring.

Her colleagues were all about her glowing demeanour. She felt good and that thing's amazing.

After her lecture, she sat leisurely on her seat, marking student assignments and sometimes gazing at her phone as if, she expected a text.

A single ding and lo! Her radiance brightened.

Josh: Hey darling, are you done?

Tins: No :( But will be soon!

Josh: Ring me up when you are done. I am gonna pick you up.

Augustina was flustered. Is that an early gesture? Her thumb was indecisive about what to reply but she did it, anyway.

Tins: Umm..but Josh, you had told me you are busy. You don't need to worry.

His reply came faster than expected.

Josh: I am always available for you.

Tins: -_- Really? Fine.

Josh: Aww baby. I can feel your pout from here. It's okay. Can't I pick you up?

Tins: Okay okay, you clingy human. You can.

Josh: Yay!! Then,
Laters, baby.

Tins: You sure I shouldn't be the one saying this..?

Josh: A man can dream baby, a man can dream ;)

She chuckled fondly at this guy. He is cute. Such a man with such devilish handsomeness could be this intriguing. Interesting to witness.

Bidding Josh a virtual bye, Augustina carried on with her lectures. A free mind and soul can certainly impart a lot in a person's way of functioning.

When you are happy, it radiates off you. That radiation is contagious. You get to spread it and thus, it's very pleasant.

Author's note:~

A very short chapter because why not? My exams are coming soon and I might not be able to update. (Note the might)

Augustina is more cheerful than usual and it is obviously a big thing for our girl!
