Challenge Accepted

Chapter 2

It’s been one week passed since I moved to Melbourne for my studies. I won the full scholarship in ‘University of Melbourne’ after finishing my high school with good marks. I was staying in an orphanage after my parent’s death, who dies in a car accident when I was only 7 years old. I don’t interact with other students much as I feel very uncomfortable with them. College authorities make us stay in female dorms for some time so that they can arrange our accommodation with other students.

Once I hear my alarm clock sound loud enough I wake up from my bed. It's only 6 am but I don’t want anyone to interrupt me while taking shower so I usually get up early from my bed, I have a habit to wake up early since my orphanage days so it’s not a big deal for me to leave the bed in the early morning. After getting ready I decided to grab a cup of coffee from the coffee machine and go for some walk to the nearby place. On the back side of your university, there is a very big market, while passing from the market I saw one hoarding in which they need people for the part-time job for their supermarket. As I really need money for my daily things I directly go towards them and ask them for the job, they inform me everything & I accept the job. Since it’s a part-time job I can do after my classes and earn some extra money. I have to join them from tomorrow, as we are talking about my duties and work I realize it’s already 7:15 am so I wrap up my conversation and run to my hostel.

It's 7:35 am when I enter my college premises I decided to go to the library. Once I got in I breathed the sweet smell of old books and a sense of peace took over me, it was always my favorite place to spend my free time. Suddenly I realize there is an announcement and all the students need to gather in the college hall.

‘After few minutes I saw our principal walking towards on stage and greet all of us & announce that all the freshers are going to accommodate with seniors now’. “OH MY GOD, I said shockingly”, I hope I accommodate someone who is sincere enough. I walk towards notice board to check my roommate name, to my worst nightmare its ‘AMANDA WILLIAMS’.

“Why her god? She is the most popular girl in college and totally a spoiled brat”.

‘ I notice her on the first day of my college in the canteen when she enters in canteen everybody is staring at her & all her group is following her like a loyal pet’. Nobody messed with her, even if she makes your life hell & here I have to stay with her for the whole year it’s really going to be the worst nightmare ever.

After my classes, I went back to my dorm and pack all my stuff, once I reach the room I pray “please god give me the strength to stay with her”. I open the knob and enter the room, which is empty for now.
