☆☆☆STARMANIA STORIES☆☆☆
Episode 4
I woke up very late the next day. I
quickly took my bath and got prepared
for school. I left home immediately
without having breakfast. I was
supposed to have lecture by 8:am but it was
already 8:15am. I got to the building the
lecture was holding and peeped through the
window. The lecture was already going on
and the lecturer could be seen at the podium
impacting knowledge on the students with
enthusiasm. Every student focused there
attention on the lecturer standing close to the
door, and that was exactly the same place I
was supposed to walk in through. I was sure
everyone would focus there attention on me
when I walk in, because there's no how I
would walk into that class without being
noticed. I stood at the window for close to
10minutes trying to come up with an idea of
how I would walk into the class without being
noticed. I felt a hand on my shoulder, and I
turned to see my coursemate standing beside
me. I was relieved it was a guy.
"are you not going in?" he asked
"I was about going in" I answered
"are you just coming?" I asked
"yes" he answered
"let's go in before we miss the important part
of the lecture." he said
"okay" I responded
He walked ahead while I followed behind
him. I tried as much as possible to hide behind
him as we walked into the class. I never
removed my gaze from the floor until I sat
down at the back seat. I took a deep breath
and silently thanked the guy who showed up
when i needed him. I'm not sure I would have
been able to walk into the class alone. I would
have stayed outside until the end of the
lecture. The lecturer continued with the
lecture. After few minutes of listening, I was
able to understand what was being taught. I
was quite good in maths, and the course that
was being taught was actually 'introduction to
mathematics for economist'. Did I mentioned
earlier that I'm an economics student.
when the class was over, the lecturer handed
a brown envelope to our course rep, which I
believed contained our test script we did in
the previous class. To make matter worse for
me, our course rep happened to be a lady. I
had never approached her to get any
information from her. Even when I needed
an important information which I believed
only her could provide, I still didn't
approach her. Her beauty alone is
intimidating. she distributed the script back to
the students. just as the scripts went round, I
could hear murmur from every corner of the
class which means the scores were very bad.
She had already shared all the scripts but I
still didn't get mine. I wanted to bring to her
notice that I had not received my script but
didn't know how to approach her. I only sat
on my seat staring at everyone faces as they
stared at their script with a frown.
My course rep started walking towards me,
immediately she was done distributing the
script. I tried not to feel nervous, because she
might not actually be coming to meet me. she
got to me and sat next to me. I was very
nervous but tried not to show it.
"Christian how did you do it?" she asked
immediately.
"do what" I asked confused.
she brought out a script and showed to me.
"while everyone was scoring less than 10, you
scored 23. How did you do it" she asked
I looked at the script in her hand and realized
it was actually my script and I scored 23 just
like she said. but I still didn't know why she
did not give me my script when she was
sharing it and had to bring it to me
personally.
"you are really brilliant" she continued when
I didn't respond
"Anyway, I just want to tell you that you just
officially made yourself my private tutor.
you will be tutoring me starting from next
week."
My eyes widened in shock when she said that.
Me that cannot even talk to a lady for a
minute will now sit down for close to an hour
to tutor her. she better rethink was she just
said. what kind of difficult position did she
want to put me in. I better look for a way to
decline.
"so how will it be comfortable for you? will I
be coming to your place for the tutorial, or
you will be coming to my place?" she asked.
None of the options seem comfortable for me,
I wanted to say that but dare not say it.
"anyhow you want it" I answered against my
decision.
"Okay, we will be using both my place and
yours for the tutorial. That would be fairer
right?" she asked
"yes" I answered
Just when I was still dealing with the lady
beside me, Joy came and joined us. she sat at
my other side, making it two ladies sitting
beside me. I haven't been myself sitting beside
my course rep, and Joy had also joined us,
making my blood pressure to rise.
"hi Sharon" Joy greeted our course rep
"hi Joy" Sharon replied
"Christian how is your body now?" Joy asked
me
"fine" I answered briefly
She saw my script with Sharon and collected
it. she stared at it
"23!" she exclaimed
"Christian you scored 23"
All eyes in class turned to our direction
immediately they heard my score. I felt
embarrassed at the number of eyes staring at
me. |
