Angel couldn’t be happier, her dream
of studying her dream course in her
dream university has finally come to
reality. she just gained admission
into one of the reputable university in
the country, to study Economics. she
had already completed the
registration process and had also
done all necessary arrangement. she
can’t wait to attend her first lecture.
she was very anxious.
She sat on her bed,thinking of how
life on campus would be like. she
would be spending the next 4 years
of her life on campus.

It was already 10:30pm, but she still
didn’t feel like sleeping. she was
really anxious. she would move to
her hostel in school the next day.
she sighed and lay on her bed. her
gaze were fixed on the ceiling.
” I will be having my first lecture in
school tomorrow” she mumbled to
herself.
“and I still have to move my luggage
to my hostel also. and I will also be
meeting my roommate. I just pray
she will be nice to be with, because I
can’t afford to spend the next 4 years
of my life with someone that will
always get on my nerves.”
She rolled from one side of her bed
to the other, trying to get some sleep.
……………………………………
Jewel sat on a chair in his room. so
many thoughts were running through
his mind. he had just gained
admission into one of the prestigious
university in the country, to study his
dream course, Economics. Lectures
would resume fully the next day, but
that seemed not to be his problem at
the moment. He didn’t even plan to
attend lectures for the whole of that
week. His main concern was to be
with the love of his life, Jane, whose
matriculation ceremony was also the
next day. Jewel and Jane gained
admission same year, but in different
schools. while Jewel gained
admission into a reputable federal
university in the south west, Jane
gained admission in a private
university in the south east. They had
both applied for admission in the
same university, but Jane couldn’t
beat the cut-off mark, so had to apply
for her second choice, which is a
private university.
Jewel stared blankly into air. His
face was slightly curved in a smile.
“finally Jane, I can now see your face
once more. I have missed you so
much. how I wished we gained
admission in the same university.
things would have been better. I
wouldn’t be so lonely. but all the
same, it’s for our good. we will only
be apart for just 4 years. After four
years, we will be together again. I
will wait for you. I love you so much
Jane. I think I should start preparing
my things, because I can’t wait to
see you.”
He stood up and walked out of his
room.
***********************************
Angel alighted from a cab in front of
the university gate. an average age
man also alighted and rushed to the
boot to get Angel’s luggages down.
she settled the cab man and he
drove off. she brought out her phone
and stared at the screen with smiles
on her face. the phone was giving to
her by her uncle before she left
home this morning. she couldn’t
control her joy when her uncle
presented the phone to her. it will
surely make her stay on campus
wonderful. she stared at the school
gate before her, still with smile on
her face.
“I’m surely going to have a wonderful
time here on campus” she said to
herself.
she carried her bags and walked into
the school.
**************************************
jewel parked the remaining clothes
on his bed into the bag beside him.
every other things had been arranged
already. he will be leaving home any
moment from now. He had already
made his parent believe that he was
moving to campus, and they had
already given him their blessing, not
knowing that he was actually going
to see his girlfriend in a university in
the far east. the only thought in his
mind was to be with his girlfriend in
an important moment of her life. he
didn’t even informed her that he was
coming. he wanted to surprise her.
he face curved in a smile just
imagining how happy Jane would be
to see him.
“Jane I know you will be surprised to
see me. I know you will never believe
that I can abandon my study just to
be with you. that’s to show you how
much I love you. I know you will be
very happy to see me. just wait for
me. I Will be with you soon” he said
and hastened the arranging of the
clothes in his bag.
************************************
Angel rushed to the faculty building
for her first lecture. she had finally
arrange her luggages in her hostel.
she didn’t meet anyone in the room
when she entered her room. maybe
her roommate would have gone for
lectures. she left her room
immediately she was done arranging
her things. this was her first lecture
and she wouldn’t want to be late for
it. she got to the faculty building
exactly 10:55am. she didn’t know
her way around and had to asked for
help in locating the place for her
lecture.
she saw a guy walking towards her
and dicided to ask for direction.
“sorry excuse me” she said,
immediately the guy got to her
the guy stopped and turned to face
her.

EPISODE 2

Jewel froze immediately Jane
introduced the guy beside her as her
boyfriend. he couldn’t believe his
ears. Jane must certainly be joking
with him. He couldn’t even say a
word. it was as if he had suddenly
lost his voice. He stared silently at
them, still in shock. He couldn’t even
think properly. Several thoughts were
running through his mind at the
same time. is jane really serious
about this, or she is just joking with
him. this must certainly be a joke.
Jane couldn’t have another boyfriend
when they didn’t break up. He was
very sure Jane love him, just the way
he love her. So this must certainly be
a joke.
Daniel walked to meet him and
stretched his hand for a handshake.
“nice to meet you” he said.
Jewel stared silently at him. he didn’t
receive his handshake. he was yet to
recover from the shock. Daniel
withdrew his hand when Jewel didn’t
shake hands with him. he turned to
face Jane.
“is your friend okay?” he asked.
Jane didn’t respond. she just fixed
her gaze on Jewel. Jewel stared
back at her with teary eyes. They
stared silently at each other. After a
while of silence, Jewel turned and
plodded out of the faculty. Jane
didn’t make any attempt to stop him.
She just stared at his retreating
figure until he was out of sight.
**********************************
Immediately lecture was over, Angel
stood up to leave the class.
“hey miss” the lady sitting beside her
all through the lecture called.
She turned to face the lady.
“you were sitting beside me all
through the lecture and you didn’t
say a word to me. now that lecture is
over, you also want to leave without
even saying hi. This is our first
lecture and also the first time we are
seeing each other. it’s only proper
for you to at least say hi to someone
you sat with during the lecture. or
don’t you want to get acquainted to
your coursemates?” the lady asked.
Angel sat down back beside the lady
and held her hands.
“please I’m very sorry for not
greeting you. A lot was on my mind
that’s why.” she pleaded.
“it’s okay. I just wanted to know why
you will sat down beside me and
never bothered to say a word to me.
since you have explained yourself
now, I’m good…. So what’s your
name? the lady asked.
“Angel” Angel responded.
“wow! nice name. you really look like
an angel. you are so beautiful.” the
lady said.
“thank you” Angel responded,
smiling.
“so what’s your own name?”
“Jessica” the lady responded.
“nice name, and you are beautiful
also” Angel said.
“thanks” Jessica responded.
“it’s nice meeting you. you are a very
friendly person. I hope we can be
friends” Angel said.
“sure, we can be friends. you are
also nice” Jessica responded.
“okay friend, I have to leave now. I
still have a lot to do. see you in
class tomorrow” Angel said.
“okay, see you too” Jessica
responded.
Angel stood up, waved at her and left
the class.
*****************************************
Jewel left the faculty of social
science and was heading towards the
school gate. He didn’t know where to
go from there. he was really hurt. He
was heart broken. He never expected
Jane could do this to him. The more
he thought of it, the more he got
hurt.
He was almost walking out of the
school gate when he suddenly heard
his name from behind. He slowly
turned to see Jane standing few
distance away from him. He stared at
her with teary eyes. Jane also stared
back at him without saying anything.
They stared silently at each other.
After a while of deafening silence,
Jane spoke.
“Jewel, I’m very sorry. I hope you will
find someone who will love you
better. please forgive me” she said.
Jewel stared at her with so much
pain. He tried not to blink, to prevent
the tears which had already form in
his eyes from dropping. He stared
silently at Jane. After a while, he
turned and walked out from the
school gate without saying a word to
Jane.
*************************************
Angel went to the school cafeteria to
have lunch. she didn’t eat before
coming for lecture, because she was
already late. she went to the counter
to order for food. when she received
her food, she walked to the far-right
and sat down. Just after 5 minutes
of eating, a guy walked up to her and
sat opposite her. she looked up from
her table to see the guy boring holes
on her body, with his eyes.
“hi” the guy greeted.
she didn’t respond immediately. she
observed him for a while before
responding.
“hi” she responded.
“I saw you in class today. that means
we are coursemates” the guy said.
“oh! you are an economics student”
Angel said.
“yes” the guy responded.
“you are the second person from my
department I’m meeting today” Angel
said.
“with time, you will get to know
everyone.” the guy said.
“yeah, that’s true” Angel responded.
“by the way, I’m Henry”
