what if the Rose doesn't bloom?

2.The guy

That's strange! I looked back and wowwww...what a charm! man! I am dead
This guy is heavenly handsome.
I am falling ... his jawline...and those rolled up white sleeves. His larynx....

"Are you okay?" And his concern...wait ..search your senses.
"Ya, I am good.
Thanks"

"You should be careful. Don't try to mess with strangers."

"That's obvious..ahhh I mean yeah I'll be more careful. Thanks"

"You're early. By the way"

"Hmm...I just wanted to look around the campus."

"Ookk..well.. I am Ben .nice to meet you."
He brought his hand forward.
And I constantly staring at him had no idea about it. I suddenly realized I was looking cheap and asked my troubling eyeballs to visit the floor.
And when I touched his hand it was cold and strong.

"Ummm...I am Rose."

Hands back Rose. You better not destroy your kind image.

"Not an American ,right?"

"Ya correct."

I first time in these two weeks saw someone not making an ugly face just because they encountered a non-American.

"Seriously , wow then where are you from?"

"I am from...."
SOUND OF THE DOOR
A guy entered and passed along. He took the corner seat and put his head down.

"Let's take our seats."
"Yapp!"

I went to the middle row and third bench when he went to fourth.
After few minutes. There were students.
Students and some more of them.
Is the whole country coming today.
The places were taken. Room was full.
Approx 10 min later, our homeroom teacher entered with the in charge of the department.
They welcomed us and told us the curriculum of the university. And then they discussed do's and mostly don'ts.

Strangely, they asked us not to visit the first building. But I heard there were laboratories in there.
There won't be any practicals.
And then our teacher told us bout our semester. It was tough hearing so much of study. I guess my ears were bout to bleed.
Our teacher then told us that there will be a welcoming party after the classes.
He began teaching and I was only able to hear was....blah blah blah...kidding
I was seriously studying.
The classes ended and we had a break. I texted dad. He was worried a lot.

I turned back and saw Ben busy in his textbook. I didn't disturb him and tried to study but there was a lot of noise. I am unable to focus in such environments.
And I randomly started to sketch. It went half way when next class began.
I had to drop it and attend the lecture again.
This was so boring that I started to yawn.

Finally it ended and we had party to join. All rushed to the auditorium and I stood unconscious. Suddenly, Ben tapped me from the back and said

"won't you go?"

How could I say no to him. And I joined him to the auditorium.
This was not what I expected. This party hall is so big and themed. My eyes got something good to see. Ummm, After this guy.
We got seated at the back and the show began. They welcomed us. A long lecture.
Are they really asking me to sleep? So they know I stood awake all night. How kind of them.

Songs played..dances and then thanks to us for joining them.
And finally I can leave.
I tried to leave the hall as early as I could. But then I heard an announcement.

"And here comes the vice president of our committee. Ms. Della Wright."

I stopped like I heard this name somewhere. I turned back and there was a lady dressed in 90ies outfit. Blonde short hair and a smile that has secrecy.

Who cares ! I then slipped out of the door rushing to crash the gate.
Wait is someone calling my name.
