*Jessica's P.O.V*

Beep beep:

Om bhur bhuva sawah . . .tat savitur varey niyam . . .bhargo devasaya dhimahi . . . Dhiyo yona prachodayat . . .

(It’s a very famous Gayatri mantra. Translation in English: Let us worship the supreme light of the Sun, the God of all things, who can so well guide our understanding, like an eye suspended in the vault of heaven.)

I groaned and checked my phone: 7:30 AM. I turned off the alarm and slowly got off the bed, which I was sharing with Nina.

Last night, we danced until it was 3 AM. I got tired and decided to go back to my room, but Nina insisted me to spend the night here, as it was very late and wasn't safe for a girl. I didn't want to take any risks, so I agreed.

I went to the small living room whoch was a completely mess and found Noah sleeping on the couch with a sweet smile on his face. I slowly made my way to outside the apartment without making any noise and started walking towards the dorm. I didn't want to disturb their sleep nor did I want to be late for college. I sent a text to Nina as I reached my room.

I quickly took a shower and dressed in a full sleeve long green top with black tights. I grabbed my things and rushed outside for college. Luckily, I reached the campus on time. I hissed as my head started spinning from the pain.

Perks of late night parties!

Cursing myself, I walked in the corridor when I heard someone called me.

"Hey Jessica, are you okay?"

I turned around and found Lily walking in my direction with a concerned look over her face.

I nodded. "Yeah, just a headache," I said, rubbing my forehead.

"Ah, side effects of late night partying." She gave me a sympathetic shrug and added, "Do you want a pain killer? I have one."

I shook my head and said, "No, I prefer to avoid pain killers. I will be fine. Don't worry."

"Are you sure?" she asked, raising her eyebrow.

"Yeah." I gave her assuring nod.

"Okay then, see you later." She waved goodbye to me and began walking towards her class.

I turned again and started walking. I took a turn and finally reached my class. My eyebrows furrowed when I found the class almost empty. Then I spotted Jelline stepping outside the class.

"Hey Jel! Don't we have class?"

She stopped and gave me a weird look. "Professor is on leave today, so it's our free period."

"Oh." I sighed in relief since I didn't want to attend class. This headache was killing me. At least now, I could have a strong coffee to get a relief from it. Then I remembered, I didn’t see her at the twin's party. "By the way... I didn't see you at the party? Where were you?" I asked, trying to make a conversation with her.

"My parents weren't at home and I was babysitting my younger brother," she said sadly. "How was the party? And where is Noah? I've tried calling him several times, but it always switched off," she added, making a face.

I laughed and said, "He must be dreaming of his princess." Jelline’s face hardened hearing after that and I immediately stopped laughing. Did I said something wrong? "Um, the party was great. We missed you." I tried to change the topic.

"Yeah, of course you missed me." She rolled her eyes. "You got new friends, Jessica, go and spend your time with them. Why can't you leave Noah alone?" She growled through gritted teeth.
