Autumn's Pov :
As soon as I entered the gate I was showered with flower petals. I was surprised.
Scarlet started sneezing uncontrollably and started feeling dizzy. I think she is allergic .
" Such a boomer " Someone said.
" Oh!! no... Wrong person " someone else said.
" That was supposed to be for my girlfriend .
" Why is it you ??? Edith did you not check before showering the flower petals . Are you in your right mind buddy " A boy came up to me and said.
The audacity of this asshole. I will beat this guy to pulp and toss him in the garden to be eaten by dogs . The helllllll man . This was supposed to be my grand first day. Like I love flowers and all but I don't like barking dogs.
" How was I supposed to know who came from the door . You are unbelievable Anthony" Some boy stated.
" Hey ! Hey! Mister stop . Who do you think you are . This is not your personal property . Why are you blaming me . I don't care whatever you do but Do not mess with me . I just fucking came through that door and-
A girl passed through the door and that guy named Anthony started following her . Apologizing . I think his girlfriend is angry . Serves him right . HEHEHEHE but Whatever it is our entry was still Grand decorated with flowers and all. Great ! Great . Wait !! I forgot something . Oh no .... Scarlet .
I turned toward her . She had stopped sneezing but she was all red and was almost about to pass out but I caught her.
" Let's go to the medical room " I frantically said.
"O-O h no that's not nee- ..ded . I-I have
... my medicine.... in my bag . If I just take.....I will be fine." Scarlet said stuttering.
I listened to her. I made her sit in the lounge area in the Entrance room . Took out the medicine from her bag, a bottle of water from my bag. Made her sit up straight and eat the medicine followed by water.
She lay her head on my shoulder for a while. We sat there for God knows how long until she was finally feeling well .
" How are you feeling " I asked
" Alive and kicking " She casually answered with a wide grin.
" You are unbelievable. One minute you are almost out cold while on the other you become all fine and good. You are really something " I nagged her.
" Well that's just how allergies are . They make you feel like you will die any second even though they are not always life threatening. I mean atleast mine is not. I am also allergic to nuts . So , you see you just get used to it"She said in a calm but serious tone.
I just nodded in response but concern was still spread across my face . I wanted to take her to the hospital but she would clearly not budge. Her face was still a little red .
" Hey ! It's already 8:55 . It's time for class we can't be late. Let's goooooo" She squealed .
" Alright !! Let's go but are you really alright . Are you not feeling any irritation on your skin . I suggest we go to the hospital before anything worsens . " I pressed .
" No ! No . It will be fine . Trust me . I will be alright and all that redness will be gone in less than an hour . So for now . Let's go " She responded taking my hand and leading us to our. We were pretty fast in reaching the classroom.
Scarlet opened the door and violà !! No professor . So , if there was no one here yet.... were we early . Yayyyyyy. We just quickly went ahead and sat wherever the seat was empty .
The class was almost full with only a few seats left.
" Lets sit here " Scarlet said while pointing at a bench . We sat there quickly incase we loose it too.
So , our seat was on the third row from the last . Lucky us , we found one from where we could see everything clearly .
It took me a while to realize that these were lecture hall benches . Not the normal ones you see in schools . I finally felt that we were really in a university . I was excited for today . Yayyy!! . I am also happy about one thing that is ... we can eat here secretly and the lecturer wouldn't even notice what we are doing.
I suddenly heard someone bickering . I turned around and there was a boy and a girl sitting on the last bench . The girl was furious while the boy was trying to calm her down . They were the same people who messed with us at the entrance or specifically that asshole name -A-N-T-H-O-N-Y . So , they are going to take the same course as us . How !! Lucky of me..... HAHAHA.
I sat back straight looking at the white board.
" I guess we are early . I asked someone and they say that the professor informed someone and they texted in group saying that he would be a little late today. He would be here by 9: 20 . " Scarlet stated.
I was surprised . How did she know all that in just a second . She really is a socializer .
Then someone suddenly appeared through the door . It was professor Gilbert and guess what..... he was with The Student Council President ..... ACE.
I was so shocked and surprised at the sight of him . Even my heart started talking back to me .... beating at the speed of light . I couldn't even control it .
" Alright !! Students - *cough* - Since today I am not so well because of the ever changing weather- *cough*- Our student council is going to take - *cough*-this lecture on behalf of me - So please Co-operate"
"GET WELL SOON PROFESSOR "
" WE WISH YOU WELL SIR "
" PLEASE !! BE WELL SIR "
Everyone started wishing well to our BELOVED PROFESSOR.
He sat on his chair on the opposite side of the podium . By the way ... he said student council right --
As I was thinking a few students came through the door. Taking their positions.They were the Student Council professor was talking about. I guess this is going to be Grand . My FIRST DAY !!! YAYYYY!! .
" Alright !! So this is Aeson Lawrence . You guys can call me ACE too. I am going to be teaching you " DESIGN THINKING AND INNOVATION " .
He was standing at the podium while speaking in the microphone with his peers helping him with the content of the lecture.
" Wait !! Isn't he in the Tech - department ... Why is he teaching us " I whispered to Scarlet.
" Design thinking and Innovation is a common topic for both the majors. That's why it's so crowded today too. Since students from both majors have joined today ." Scarlet explained.
Oh ...So we have a subject in common. I don't like this but whatever I am so Excited .
It's so fun to be studying here , meeting new people and doing what I love .
The student Council started teaching . I thought about it and Started focusing on the lecture. I took out a notebook and started taking notes from the lecture.
I stopped . I can't be like this . I focused on the lecture. Time passed by as If on a Roller-coaster. I managed to take notes for this whole lecture. WOW !! I really am a top Student.
" Alright ! We will stop here " Professor Gilbert said.
The Student Council started packing up and leave .
Scarlet urged me to leave to since our next lecture was around 11:30 and it was only 10:20 now.
" Why don't we go eat in the Cafeteria. " I Asked her.
She nodded and took my arm . We looked elegant as if we were in some old Romanian movie.
We entered the Cafeteria and Surprisingly it was not as crowded as we thought it would be . We quickly took our trays , pointed at whatever we liked to eat . They served the food on our tray and then we payed .
We both had the same food.
Spaghetti,Steamed vegetables, Orange juice, a slice of cheese cake and Yogurt . That's it .
I don't really have a huge appetite today .
We took our trays and slid into the nearest table we could find.
" We both are eating so less today . From tomorrow we need to step up our game a little " Scarlet muttered.
I nodded . All my focus was on food.
We both started gobbling up our food like hungry monsters but Then I remembered the fact that I will have to go back home which I obviously didn't want to .
" Can I ask you for a favor ??" I asked seriously.. trying to change the topic .
" YES " She answered.
" I do not want to go - ..... Wait !! Why is your face so swollen . You told me that you are usually alright after taking your medicine but it seems to have worsened . You can't really see it from afar but from upclose it's crystal clear that you need a doctor. " I insisted.
" Nah - uh . I hate doctors . I don't want to go . Let's just go home . " she stood up and put away mine and her tray away and started to walk out of the cafeteria. She signaled me to follow and I did but she was soo fast that I couldn't catch up to her.
"Hey ! Scarlet wait up...." I called.
She stopped. I ran towards her and caught up to her.
" Don't we still have classes in the afternoon " I asked.
" It's alright . I am not feeling well so we should go home . I will apply for leave through e-mail later." She replied and I nodded my head in agreement .
She was walking fast towards the parking lot .... so fast that I had to run .
We soon reached her car and she opened it as fast as she could. I sat inside as she slid into her seat and started to drive .
She was driving really fast as if in a formula 1 race . I held onto the grab handle out of reflex.
" Aren't we going too fast Scar " I murmured.
" We don't have a choice . We need to get home as soon as possible otherwise i am going to collapse on the ground because an allergic reaction will start taking effect . If that happens then a car accident is evident ." She said in a serious tone.
I sat in silence after hearing that . We were in serious danger . My heart started pounding really fast , I was frightened and was feeling nauseous.
I closed my eyes and sat , stuck to my seat without moving an inch . I couldn't even look outside the window because of how fast we were moving . Her house just seemed so far from the city .
" Hey Ash . We have reached our destination . Come one out. " Scarlet muttered.
It took us half an hour to reach her house even though she was driving so fast and even though the ride made me feel nauseous , it was still a great ride.
After taking a deep breathe I opened to door to the car and came out . I was feeling nauseous. The Air conditioner, leather seats and closer windows are really not a good combination .
I looked at the house . It was ~~
