Staring at the white examination paper and the answer sheet. Yeah! I was finally done with college,No more exams and early classes again, finally free.
The big bell at the front of the hall rang signifying the exam is over and it's time to submit.
Everyone rushed out of the examination hall in happiness of submitting the last examination. I carried my bag and joined the multitude.
"Val!!" I heard my name and turned to see Donatella running from a distance with her hair swinging from left to right.
She was running with smiles all over her face-Of course everyone must be happy to be free from this damn school, although it's not a damn school for everyone but for me specially it's a damn school.
A school that looks like an highschool- You can't date,you can't go clubbing nor do nasty things other collegians in other colleges do, what was I expecting tho- it's a religious school.
I remembered when dad dropped the bomb shell saying I will be attending the school after my high school,I cried for days because I know my free days are over. Out of all my siblings I was the craziest, causing troubles for my parents. My dad is a highly respected man in the catholic doctrine and doesn't want anything to tarnish the image making him strict with us especially me.
My parents are this strict parents that won't allow you to move an inch anywhere except you are going to the church and i'm the "you can't camp me" daughter.
"Valerie honey!!"Dona's called breathing heavily and jolting me out of my thoughts.
I touched her cheek. "We are finally free!!!"I said in a low exciting voice.
We high-fived and started talking about how we did exams and the memories we've made in this school.
Donatella and I became friends on our first year. We met during our first year registration. Donatella is the daughter of one of the most strict religious man.
We became friends through an embrassing way- I remembered when I saw her stood up from the blue chair going to the restroom. I sighted there's a stain on the peach skirt she wore. I looked around to see if anyone saw it but everyone was concentrated on the registration.
I ran quickly and hugged her from the back. Her funny reaction made me smile anytime I remembered. I hugged her tightly from the back and whispered to her "You are stained,let me cover you to the restroom"She was shocked and embrassed but I pushed her forward and started saying random things as if we are friend and walked down to the restroom.
Well that's how we became best of friends. We are the perfect best friend goals-One is crazy the other is shy but handles situation in a calm way.

"I can't wait to go to for the internship so I can meet Dav "Dona's said when we entered the big hall for us to meet our classmates and jubilate. Davide is Dona's courting boyfriend,they met when Dona's was in her third year and dav in his final year.
We are not allowed to date anyhow,if you got interest in an opposite sex and it's mutual then we will have to go to the counselling room with our partner,where we will be told the do's and don't's -part is no kissing,no staying together in a secretive place alone,no indecent act etc..,anyone that breaks the rule will face the school authority.
Cristian is my own courting boyfriend and yes! I haven't seen him today.
"Dona have you seen Cristian today" I asked her looking at the hall if I can catch a glimpse of him.
Dona was about replying me when we she was interrupted.
"Tadaaaaa!!" I jumped out of fright.
