The sunlight through the windows woke me up the next morning. I looked at the time on my phone, it was already 7 a.m. Olivia was already up and getting ready to go to class, I got up and did the same. We weren't in a hurry getting ready because classes didn't start until 8:30 am. Once ready, we went down to the dining room. Everyone was already at the table for breakfast except Aunt Cassie who had gone jogging. We took our places at the table to eat.
-So girls (Riggie snapped at us), first day of school?
- Yeah but just for us (Olivia answered)
- What do you mean ? (Asked M.C)
- All the students started almost a month ago (I replied)
- Oh yeah that's right (said M.C)… I guess you must be looking forward to it.
- Yeah that's for sure (I answered excitedly)
- That's it ! (Cam said ironically, drinking her coffee)
- What is that supposed to mean? (I said to Cam, getting on the defensive)
- You can't wait to go to class that you're already half an hour late (Cam replied), ironic, don't you think?
- Whatever Cam (said Olivia), our classes don't start until 8:30 am.
- Not at all (said Riggie), your classes start at 7:30 am.
- And it's 8am (Cam added), so you should hurry.
- It's not true (I said stressed and then left the table), let's go Olivia ...
- See you tonight everyone (said Olivia following me)
- See you tonight (they all answered)
We arrived at the university around 8:15 am but had to go through the principal's office first to collect our fees. I entered my classroom at 8:30 am; the professor of human anatomy let me in because I was new and had a note from the principal. I sat at the back of the class next to a rather cute girl with Venetian blond hair; she looked nice.
- Hi (she said)
- Hi (I replied)
- My name is Daphne Johnson (she said), so are you new?
- Yeah I'm new (I replied), this is my first day. My name is…
- Miss… (the professor asked me)
- Me ? (I answer surprised)
- Yes you (he continued), I see that you have just arrived you have already learned to chat in class
- Please excuse me sir (I replied), it will not happen again
- I hope so (he said)… In our establishment we have a rule, each new student must come to the front of the classroom to introduce himself… So come in front and hurry up we don't have all day.
- All right sir (I said getting up, I stood in front of everyone and introduced myself)… Hello everyone, my name is Luciana Leanne Torretto. I am 20 years old and have a bachelor's degree in nursing. I chose to study medicine because it is my vocation, I love treating people and giving them courage.
- Thank you Miss Torretto (said the teacher), you can go and sit down.
All eyes were on me and I loved it. At the end of the class, I went to the canteen with Daphne.
- I also had a bachelor's degree in nursing (said Daphne).
- That's great (I replied), what a coincidence.
- Did you first live in the United States or did you just come here for your studies? (Daphne asked)
- I just arrived with my sister for school and you? (I answer)
- I'm from here (she replied), I've spent my whole life here. I am the daughter of Senator Johnson from this state.
- Wow (I replied surprised), you're the daughter of a senator ? Its must be cool.
- Yes, rather (she replied) ... how would you say you have a job in the hospital? ... Well, it's not really a job since you don't get paid, it's volunteering.
- Yes of course that tempts me (I answered), could you find a place for me?
- Yes there are still two free radiology positions and I have been asked to find capable volunteers to fill these positions. (She says) Are you up for it?
- when do i start ? (I say enthusiastically)
- I would say next week the time that I put the necessary papers in rules. (She says)
- Great, thank you very much Daphne. (I answer)
After I finished eating, I got to know the other students in the class with Daphne. Then we had Neurology and Radiology lessons before the end of the day. I joined Olivia accompanied by Daphne to introduce her to her. By the greatest of luck, Olivia was waiting for me with a girl who turned out to be Daphne's sister. Her name was Bay, she was blonde and prettier than Daphne.
The 4 of us returned and they dropped us off in front of the house.
