567 Words
Immediately I opened the doors I regretted opening them the lecturer a short woman with oversized clothes turned to see who had entered and the whole class did so. I quickly scan for an empty seat but before I could climb up to the back the teacher stopped me
'' Kind of you to join us introduce yourself to the class please'' she said holding a pointed stick I mentally groan just what I was avoiding
" My name is Zarah and I am 19 years old," I said she gives a satisfactory nod and I rush over to an empty seat by the wall. Only when I take my seat do I let my eyes wander beside me a girl with red hair and pale skin she turned to give me a small smile she had the most gorgeous set of white teeth which were pointed she had amber eyes with dark filled lashes and black underlined eyelids her nose was short she was beautiful, not beautiful ethereal she looked like the models I had seen on the plane.
"here's the notes," she says in a whisper her voice was melodious I reach my hand to get the note from her my fingers graze her hand and I felt a shock pass through me I quickly withdraw my hand letting the book fall down
" oh gosh sorry" I whisper picking up the book a few students had turned back to see what had happened and I prayed in my mind that the Lecturer would not notice she did not.
"it's fine" the redhead said
" I am Susan by the way, "she says smiling and this time I notice a dimple on her cheeks which made her even more beautiful. I blink and realize her lips are moving my brows meet in confusion
" I said are you alright?" she asks and reaches to touch my arm but then decides against it and let her hand fall away
" yes I am, sorry I get carried away a lot these days" I apologize sighing she smiles it was true since stepping into Rankeda University I found myself thinking and overthinking not about my future which somewhat would have been okay, but instead I kept thinking about the various strange thins I saw and what they could possibly mean. An idea comes to mind. The lecturer is still teaching and has her back turned to scribble something on the board.
" can I ask you something?" I ask watching her reaction
" yeah sure," she says turning slightly to face me
" why is there a forbidden hallway with empty halls, I mean why is it forbidden?" I ask her eyes open at my question and freckles of red appear on her iris wait what, I blink and she appears to have regained her composure
" well all I know is no one is allowed to be there student or staff," she says more like a warning student or staff weren't allowed there? what for that is ridiculous
" But why did you ask," she asks me curiosity dancing in her eyes
" I kinda lost my way and got stuck there until..." I start to say but she interrupts me the look on her face gave me chills.
" you did what!?" she asks and the whole class turns this time her eyes are red.
