MY CAMPUS LIFE 2 - Episode 2
Campbell university!Ain't it sweet?!I smiled,stepping out of the car."Dad,do you think the girls over here will be better than ours at Hennsen?"I asked nostalgically.
"I don't know baby,"came my dad's voice from behind me."Just try fit in,okay?"he smiled."I know my little Sunshine's gonna make us proud."he added,grinning with pride.
"You really think so,dad?I mean,what if I mess up?"I continued,rubbing my arms.
"Oh,I know so,baby.I know you will."he spoke with full assurance.
"Oh,thanks,daddy."I sighed,relieving myself of whatever nostalgic feelings that still lingered inside of me.
"Uh,honey,"My dad spoke again."What about these stuffs you packed in here?Need help moving them inside?Gee!They're so heavy."he laughed,taking the boxes out of the trunk.
...Ugh!Why can't he just stop worrying about me?I'm almost eighteen...
I frowned,watching him place my luggage in front of me."Dad,you worry so much."I joked,taking my gray knapsack from him.
"Why,of course I should,baby.I don't want you getting yourself all worked up,you know?"
"Yeah,right!"I scoffed.
"Whoo!That's the lot...I guess."he shrugged."You ready,princess?"
"Dad!" I feigned anger,and he burst into a loud chuckle,making me laugh alongside.
"Come on baby,you don't have to be like that."he teased.
"Seriously,dad.It ain't funny!"I frowned,taking the boxes from him.
"All right.All right.I'm sorry."he burst into laughter again."But are you really sure you're going to be okay taking all these inside?All by yourself?"he arched his brows at me."They seem pretty heavy,I must say..."
"Oh,yes daddy.You promised,remember?"I said looking back at him.
"Ahh,so true.My,you're feeling really feisty today."he said."Got something you're not spilling?"
"Oh,c'mon daddy.You know it's college causing all that.This' my first time being here,you know?"I giggled,rubbing my cheeks.
He looked at me,and before I knew it,he got me into a father-daughter embrace as I melted in his arms."Oh,I can't believe my little baby's leaving home."he sighed."I'm really going to miss you,Belinda.Your mum,not excluded."he laughed,releasing me.
Gosh!I'm starting to miss mum and dad already,I thought sniffling a bit as I brushed my layered hair aside.
"I know you'll make your mum and I proud.I trust you.We do,baby."
"Yeah,dad"I nodded,throwing a final glance at him."I love you so much."I finally uttered to him.
"Oh,I love you too,Princess."came his happy reply with a dashing smile beaming across his white-skinned face."Now be a good girl,and don't go about moving side by side with those petty losers that are up to no good."he cautioned sweetly."You never can tell what they've got in mind."
"Mm-hmm.Got it!"I smiled,giving him a thumbs up.
...Oh,how ironical...
"I'm serious.Those guys are..."
"Dangerous and not ought to be friends with,"I broke in."I know,dad.See.Told you I can handle myself."I laughed.
"Now that's,my sweet pea.Mmm,can't believe I'm leaving you so soon."
"Oh,dad.It's best you go now,so I won't make you stay."I said,acting all sober.
"But...."
"No buts.daddy."I wiggled a finger,signalling a no.
"Haha!Oh,well.I trust you."he chuckled,making towards his car as he pulled it open.
I watched him get into the drivers seat,and I couldn't help but feel all emotional again as he inserted his car key into the key hole.
"You're gonna be okay,berry."he smiled,rubbing my fingers as though he knew what I had in mind.
"I hope,"I replied with a nod,pulling my fingers out of the car.
The SUV door got shut at the remote's command,and at that moment I couldn't help but let go of the tears I've been trying so hard to fight."I love you,daddy,"I managed to say.
"Oh,I love you more,baby."he responded,rolling the car window up.
Hearing my voice crack that minute,got me amazed.Was I actually crying?I thought to myself,not taking my eyes off my dad's car as it drove out of sight.And then I knew,I was alone.
...Much alone than I've ever felt...
"Ohh"I muttered under my breath,walking in the direction of my soon to be hostel.
Though I felt really exhilarated being all alone,but all the same I still missed having mum and dad around.
Could this day get any worse?I murmured,climbing the flight of stairs that stood in my way.
Marionette's hostel was a four-storey building,and it had really long stairs that could get one all worn out and fatigued.And if you weren't careful,you could get lost in the whole no-boys zone.
...Can't believe it actually is...
"Ohh."I let out a low moan,staring at the number on the red door,and looking down at the paper slip I had in my left hand,still clutching on to my bag tightly,for fear of it slipping off my grip.
"Room 328.Here,we are."I muttered tiredly,pushing the door open as my new room came in sight.
The milky painted room anything like my beauty room back at home that seemed to have wallpapers of talented artistes hanging on all sides.But I gotta say it still looked pretty cool to me.
"Hope to love it here.Whoo!"I said,tossing my bag on the bunk at the window side.
So this is what a bed looks like over here?I thought within me,staring at the creaky metal bed with mouth agape.
...I wonder what my roomies look like.Hope they ain't b*tchy though.I thought with a mischievous grin spread across my face.
I brought out my MP-3 player,and my apple phone out alongside as my mind went to James.
...Gasps...
"Oh,jeez.He's really gonna be mad,thinking I deliberately didn't put a call through."I sighed,dialing his number.
He answered immediately,like he's being expecting me,and I stood blushing with every response that came."Hey baby.Uh-huh.Yeah,campus.You know it!I'll text you my address in a bit.Love you.Bye-bye."
...And that's how we roll.Yeah-eh...
"Um,who are you?"a grumpy voice came from the door.
Oh,good Lord!
She must have been there all along.Bet she was listening to our conversation.I thought,eyeing her.
"Oh,sorry.You must be the new girl Chris Singer talked about."the black eyes,ponytails girl smiled,offering me her hand."I'm Joan,"she said.
"I'm Trish.Tricia Parker to be precise."I said,studying her.
Heh!Well,she seems nice.I thought,examining her closely.
Her eyes met with mine and she began laughing to my surprise.
"Hm,what's funny?"
"Ha!Forgive my manners,dear.You'll get use to it."she added.
...Oh,she is weird...
"BTW,which means 'By The Way'.Sorry,I'm the abbreviation type.Haha!"she chuckled again,giving an oops sign with her nicely clipped fingers.
Seriously???
"So,like I was saying;I'm a final year college student.Theater Arts to be precise.What 'bout you,love?"
"Hm,well,I'm a newb.You already know that."
"Oh,right!"she laughed."Freshers are always my favorite.Well,I hope you enjoy your stay here,Parker.You'll love it.Trust me."she said with a wink,blowing a kiss in the air.
Eww,like did she just do that?
"Oops,it's lecture time."she announced,taking her red ripped-off bag up again.
...Yeesh!So not classy...
"Lectures?Well,guess we'll talk later then."I said to her.
"So right,baby.Catch you later."she said,hurrying out the door.
And there's the silence I've been looking for.Oof!
Don't forget to give me those smashing comments,my dearies.YOU KNOW I LOVE YOU...

I'm looking for suspense
@Lo is Lol. And it's on the way....I had to take a pause 'cause of some things but everything's returning back to normal now. All thanks to God.
TWO I ran through the hallway, hotfooted, a groan escaping my lips. "Can't believe I'm gonna be late." "Whoa! Take it easy." A calm voice came halting me as I quickly turned around, my eyes meeting with his. Such charming gray eyes, I thought, blinking simultaneously. He gave a welcoming smile, as my heart skipped a bit. "I'm Philip." He said to me. I gulped, wanting to say something, but no words came out. "Uh..." "Oh, sorry. I...I'm Tricia," I stammered. "What a lovely name you got, Trish." "Oh, thank you." I blushed, forgetting all about class. "My pleasure. Come along, now. Class' this way." He gestured, as I followed. Walking side by side with him made me nervous and I couldn't fathom out why. Maybe he's not human. Or maybe....Just maybe he's - "We're here!" He announced, a smirk dancing across his perfectly, curved shaped lips. "Welcome to LSAT hall. Come on in." The two of us walked right in, taking our seats at the middle row, neither of us uttering a word, as a white bearded man walked in. "That's Professor Wane," The gray eyes lad whispered to me. Feeling the warmth of his breath on my left ear, and hearing the softness in his voice made me wish he wouldn't stop. "He'll be taking us English Language, since Professor Shane isn't back yet." He added, much audible this time. "Oh." I said. I went about wondering how this one guy could make me act really nice - Nicer than ever before. We sat in silence, eyes focused on the screen, except for the fact my mind remained unrest, with the frequent glances I kept throwing at my new friend. He seemed to notice, as our eyes met, and a soft chuckle escaped his lips. My eyes glistened, and I felt a bit shy, thinking of the next move to take. "So...where are you from?" I asked, drawing invisible circles on my jean. "Britten hills," He smiled. "Ever been there?" "Nah." I gave a less sounding laugh. He paused for a moment, his lips slanted at an angle. "You don't say." ...Great! I'm sure he thinks I'm Psyche... "Well, care to tell me yours?" "Oh yeah. I come from Henson." "Henson, huh?" "Mm-hmm. Been there?" "Been there?! Girl, are you kidding me?" He laughed, his words, half a question. "I spent half my childhood there." He added. "No way!" I exclaimed lowly. "I know right? You know my mum and dad used to go to this rich resort..." "Gravantees?" I cut in, and his eyes stood wide open. "Yes! That's it!" "Small world." I said ecstatically. The smile he wore slowly disappeared. "What's wrong?" "N..." "All right, guys. Let's call it a day." Professor's Wane's voice echoed in the hall. Wait. That's it? I questioned myself as I watched students exit the class. "Be right back." Philip said to me as he hurried off in the opposite direction. A red-hair black girl, dressed in a mini skirt and a matching slender top gestured to him, and I felt an ounce of jealousy gather up inside of me. "Oh," A soft moan escaped my lips and I instantly buried my head in my palms. "Hey there," Came a soft tap on my shoulder. "Welcome aboard." She said, coming in front of me. "I see Duchy's showing around already. The name's Chels. Chelsea Valentine." The brown hair girl said to me. She had a black leather jacket atop a stylish pink gown that partly covered her smooth, slender legs. "Mm? You mean....?" "Philip-" She smirked. "Saw you two come in." ...Great! Maybe she's girlfriend number two... "That's Daphne, though. Daphne Martinez." The brown hair girl continued. "Daphne?" "Mmm-hmm. I caught you staring at them." She giggled, moistening her lips. "Heh. I certainly wasn't staring." I shrugged, my conscience pricking me. "Oh, I won't tell." She winked. "Phil's a great guy. We both attended the same high school." Well, that explains a lot, I thought. I faked a smile, getting up. "Well, Chels. It's being nice talking to you." "Whew! I'm back. I'm sorry I took so long, Trish." Philip broke in. "Oh, hey, C. You doing well?" "You know it!" Chelsea laughed as I averted my eyes swiftly. "So Trish, you ready to go?" Philip's question came. "Yes," I replied laconically. "Goody. You coming, Chels?" "Ergh, I still got some things to do." She smiled, throwing a quick look at me and back at Phil. Guess, I'll see you two later." She said to us, as we bid her goodbye. The gray eyes lad and I walked side by side, under the warm airy breeze, the sun lighting our path as we walked on the less busy road, lined up with flowers and coconut trees, which made it such an amazing sight to behold. We chatted, and then I remembered we haven't really talked about the one thing I was wanting him to hear him say. "So Phil, what happened back there in class?" Did I just call him that? "Sorry?" He stopped, confused. "Oh, you mean with the girl I was talking with?" "No." "Oh, you mean before we got interrupted." I affirmed. "That one." "Well, it's just family related. Nothing much." He laughed, as we began walking again. "Hmm-" "Yeah. I got none. It's just me and my gran." His shocking response came, and my legs stood stiffly. "T-they're dead?" I swallowed hard. "Oh, gosh. I'm so sorry." "Oh, it's fine. I think this is where we part ways, Trish." "Part ways?" I asked, a bit surprised. "Ha! Not that kind." Thank goodness, I exclaimed. "I'll see you soon, Philip...." "Mac-Kenny. But call me, Phil.". "Oh, wow. Mine's Parker." "It's such a pleasure meeting you, Tricia Parker. Hope to see you again." I smiled. "Sure hope so, too." I watched as he slowly disappeared, and was about taking the next turn when a hand came on my bum, startling me. "Oh my goodness!" I uttered aloud. "Missed me?" "Ohh!" I yelled as the mystery guy came in front of me, and with a naughty expression written on his face, cupped my cheeks. "Oh, how I've missed you." He grinned, nibbling sweetly on my lower lip. I made to resist, but my feelings betrayed me at the sudden capture of the erotic feeling that was starting to gather up inside of me. I let out a soft moan, my body melting totally in his arms. "Ahh, James...." "That's right, baby." He smirked, moving his hands down my back onto my enlarge butt cheeks as he gripped it in a way my kitty-cat made a spurting sound. "J-James, you know we can't do this here."I purred, vibrating from his touch. "Oh, please! No one really cares about us doing this here. You have no idea how much I've missed you." He grinned between kisses. "I know baby, but-" I made to pull away, but he pulled me back, my bosom grazing his broad chest, which I could see clearly. He went further into brushing my hair aside as he made to nibble on my earlobe. "Oh, that t-tickles." I laughed, feeling the wetness in between my legs. "Oh, I know, baby. You're gonna come see me tomorrow, right?" I looked up at him, giving a slight chuckle, my arms still wrapped up around him. "I'll be right where you need me, baby."
