Chapter 1

Chapter 1: "When it comes to you, you become wiser than Obama and give out your reasons"

My converse clad feet came to a stop as I tried to steady my breath and tried not to look like a girl who just ran the longest race of her life. I checked my watch and noticed that I still had 10 minutes before the lecture started, so I decided to eat something - which means eat whatever leftover I had in my backpack because I certainly didn't had much time to go to a café and order something.

I took my seat on the third last row of the class and began eating a granola bar I had found in my bag. I checked my phone and winced when I saw that I had seven missed calls - two from Ma, two from Dad and three from my two best friends - Amber and Shantell. I made a mental note to call atleast one of my parents later on in the evening because hell would break lose and even before I know it my parents would fly half way across the world just to make sure that I was very much alive and breathing. I sent a quick text to Amber and Shantell stating that I would meet them for lunch. Just then our professor for the history lit came in and started the class.

I tried not to doze off in the two hour lecture and wrote down as many necessary points for the notes I needed to help me while studying.

I sprinted out of the class as soon as the class ended and started walking towards the Blue Lagoon Café outside our campus for lunch because first I was as hungry as a cub lion who hadn't eaten in like 18 days.Okay so maybe not that bad but still I was hungry and that always made me feel like stabbing someone in the stomach. Secondly I missed my best friends too much because they had gone back to home because of the 4 days holiday we had but I had stayed back and decided to complete off my work which I could have done at home also but then I would have been terribly home sick by being at home. Believe me its weird but still something which happens a lot.

I entered the café and as I knew my best friends would already be waiting for me at our favorite booth. Both looking fresh, showered and adorable and here I was looking like a mummy out of the cave. I had fastly put my hair in a long ponytail on my way to class this morning because as you knew I was late for class since I had ended up sleeping at 3 in morning while sobbing my heart out for Sam Claffin as he decided to die and just couldn't help myself. I knew that I had a 8 am class but still decided to watch Me Before You at 1 am.

Hey you can't blame a girl for being hopeless romantic.

As I approached my best friends I decided to be punctual which I have been trying to be since the last two years, so you could say that I was a bit procrastinator and by a bit I meant a lot.

So as I greeted my friends they were busy in a conversation and as if they heard me, they turned to me and Shantell asked me," Don't you think Amber is being too clingy with Chase?". And as if on cue Amber turned to me with a scowl on her face and said," Please tell me you don't feel the same!"

Both were looking at me with a challenging look and I knew that taking side of any one of them were dangerous borders. So instead of taking any one of their sides I said," Well to be honest Am, you are actually being a bit clingy with Chase but you are in your honeymoon phase of your relationship so it kinda makes up for it."

" Ohh I forgot that I should never ask you questions where you are supposed to take someone's side because when it comes to this you become more wiser than Obama and give out your reasons." muttered Shantell.

" Well don't you know me so well!" I said to her and took a sip of the coffee they had ordered for me and sighed in the delight.

Amber nudged me in the ribs when I started dozing and said," No no missy you aren't going to sleep now , we still have a lot of work to do and you are supposed to eat."

I gladly took the plate of white pasta from her and started stuffing my mouth with it. I know it isn't at all like a lady and my Ma would definitely have a field day if she found out, but hey I was hungry and exhausted with close to no sleep at all.

Amber's phone started ringing and Shantell sighed and turned to me," She's gonna ditch us again isn't she?" and just on cue Amber uttered," Guys, I m really sorry but Chase is outside and I gotta go."

"Yeah, go to your lover boy who keeps following you around like a love sick puppy." And this was ladies and gentleman a war which would never end unless and until Chase and Amber broke up. So the following thing was always my job to do.

" Go on Amber. Don't worry about her." Amber sighed and took her leave. I turned to Shantell," You gotta let go of that. She won't get hurt. Believe me. Chase is a nice guy." Even though I was telling Shantell not to worry I myself was a bit worried because Amber could be naïve at times.

As I opened my dorm room and sighed in relief when I saw that my roommate Charlie was nowhere to be seen. It wasn't like I despised her or something. I liked her she was my kinda girl (not like that you pervert minded people). She gave me my space and I gave her hers. But that feeling of being alone and doing whatever you want is just something else.

So as I flopped down on my bed, I remembered that I needed to call my parents and let them know that I was pretty alive. So I messaged my Ma to Skype with me and imagine my surprise when not even two minutes later I was Skyping with my parents.

" You have gotten paler. Are you sure you are eating well my love?" that was my dad. Meet my dad Mr.David Brown the ever caring and a loving man. He was a lawyer by profession and even though he had a busy working life he still found time for us.

"Yes Ma I have been eating and sleeping well." This was the tenth time I was reassuring her since the last 45 mins and yet she was regretting the decision of sending me away from home because according to her I had considerably lost weight and needed to eat more. That is people my mother - The ever so beautiful and talented Mrs. Ananya Dham-Brown.

Well after our "little" skype session I ate my dinner at the lunch room with Charlie who came back in the middle of my skyping session.

So as I started studying at night, I just hoped that tomorrow would bring out a new change in my life and be more adventurous.

And believe me when I say that my life did change after that I mean it. Like for real.
