It's the beginning of a new semester after the summer vacation.. Greenholm university in A city is bustling as student are rushing into the dorm with their luggages.
Alice was dropped off by her uncle, she looked rather timid and naive, but at least she's happy to be back on campus, it's her third year in Greenholm university and she's excited as she's getting closer to her graduation, so she could finally have her freedom and leave her uncle's house that's a dungeon. Alice is a twenty-three year old virgin,She was a delicate flower, her beauty both fragile and alluring. With large, doe eyes that held a hint of innocence, and a soft, full smile that could light up a room, she exuded a captivating charm. Her slender figure, accentuated by her youthful curves, hinted at a hidden sensuality. Despite her outward timidity, a spark of mischief often flickered in her eyes, suggesting a playful spirit waiting to be unleashed. She has avoided boys all her life. Standing at the entrance of the dorm was her best friend, who happened to be her only friend.. they're excited to be room mates yet another academic year.
"Alice, I guess the school really is for our friendship, I couldn't imagine myself having a newbie as a room mate"
"Me too, so Sarah, it's nice to see you again after the long vacation."
"Same here bestie, let's go unpack!"
Sarah noticed Alice's unhappiness, it's nothing new, she's always unhappy the first day of resumption anyway as those bastards bad energy is still on her, but in a few days, it's all gonna vanish and it will be fun around her.
Alice's life is not as fun as others around her, she's got no parents and her uncle and his family treats her like complete outcast in her father's duplex. She practically lives like a maid in that house, no one respects her or even consider her as human. If not for her father's gambling, he would have still be alive by now, the shock of going bankrupt sent him to his early grave, a year after she lost her sick mom. Nothing excites her in her life anymore. Perhaps they could be something in the future. She's grateful to her friend Sarah, for being not just a friend but also a sister.
"Alice hurry up! We're gonna be late for our first class"
"Give me a minute and I'd be done"
As usual it's a noisy class, many catching up after the long vacation, and the rich kids kept bragging about their luxurious vacation. While they were at it, a professor walked in, a man in his late fifties, He was a man of striking presence. Tall and well-built, with broad shoulders and a lean frame, he exuded an air of quiet strength. His face, etched with lines of wisdom and experience, was framed by a thick, salt-and-pepper beard that added to his distinguished appearance. His eyes, a deep shade of blue, held a keen intelligence and a warmth that was both inviting and reassuring.
As soon as he stepped into the presence of the students, there was complete silence as his appearance had this charming and commanding aura around him. While they were still wondering who this mysterious man is, he introduced himself in an enigmatic tone.
"Good morning class!"
"Morning sir!"
"I'm professor Jeremy Daniels, I welcome you all to History class"
"Thank you sir"... In chorus
"So let's begin"
And before he could say the next word, Alice and her friend Sarah rushed in.
"I hate lateness!"
"We're sorry sir, we lost our way finding the venue"
The class laughed at how funny they both looked.
"Quiet! What's your name?"
"Sarah sir."
"And you hiding behind your friend, out let me see you"
"I...a..m..A..l..ice sir."
Her innocence made him felt a spark and his pant and he wondered, who's this girl and why is she having such an effect on him?
"Know that I've hold your names and face, come late again and you're banned from my class forever"
"Thank you sir"
It took awhile for him to recomposed himself and continued what brought him to class, but all through he couldn't take his eyes off Alice, there's something more about her, he wouldn't mind finding out and he gave a smirk while he wasn't facing the class.
Alice was so scared, how could she come late to her first class of the year, she deeply hopes it isn't bad luck for the rest of the semester, but then on a second thought she couldn't take her mind off the professor, he had this spark in his eyes as he looked at her earlier but she wondered why he'd look at her like that.
