"what did you say" Tara asked glaring fiercely at the petite looking girl, Zoë suddenly smiled "Nothing... sorry for bumping into you". He just nodded and Tara hissed "Pauper like you are just a common waste of space, you couldn't give a common driver 80 euros". Zoë face just maintain the same smile not wanting to waste anymore time with them, she walked to the line to wait for her turn placing her luggage by a chair.
"Let's go" Tara pulled Ben to the line and pushed away Zoë in the process making her fall to the ground, she held Ben's hand when he tried helping.
"Bennie what are you trying to do even the ground knows his people so he takes them with him...Ouchh! does it hurt that's were you belong so you should stay there"Tara said with a sinister grin looking down at Zoë. "Do you know her before"Ben was tempted to ask taken her aback for a second but she smiled to ease the awkwardness. "I don't need to know her before knowing her motive... people like her are leaches that once they get attached to a person they suck out the whole good from them" Tara said interlocking their hands and eyes "Don't brood over it" she said with a soft smile but he just replied with a 'hmm'.
*Hey hottie
*You look so handsome.
*Ahh!... that's Ben of Floreg.
*Yes... someone help me I might die.
*It's a sin to be this sexy
A few group of girls passed praising Ben avoiding Tara's presence and she sneered hugging Ben in a bid to shoo them off "He's taken and just so you know...He is mine!" She half yelled and they left giving her hateful glares, she closed her eyes and smirked victoriously like heaven is supporting her today but her face changed when she was pulled off from the hug.
"The f**k" Tara yelled as she felt a warm substance flowed through her hair to her body before she make out what it was her cheek received a loud sound without warning as she fell to her butt.
She just got slapped in the middle of the street what a big ridicule this is,who dares to slap her in the whole of Floreg island.
(Note:Floreg is a short form for Floregerand island")
She looked up to meet Zoë mocking smile and just as she was about to tell at her Zoë expression turned pitiful "Auntie...looks like your heavy cologne couldn't conceal your awful smell that your boyfriend had to push you...you can only hide the truth of your odour you can't erase it with heavy cologne". "How dare you!...I'll show you what I'm made of!...my boyfri..."she was yelling when when Ben voice interrupted her. "I don't have a girlfriend that's shit" Ben said in his cool voice not even glancing at her just staring deep into Zoë eyes, she couldn't help but blink maintaining the eyes contact. He placed a few euros beside Tara "take a cab home"with that he left the scene without turning back "Ben!...Ben!!... Bennie!!!" Tara's tears rented the street, he smirked he gets joy from these tears just give them the charming smile whenever they need it but the moment they cross the line he doesn't care its not in his blood to look back there are plenty baddies in the universe so he just don't give a damn to their feelings.
*Can I get your number!
A girl said loud enough for Tara to hear , he glanced at her then walked to her collecting her phone to input his number. "No!, Ben you can do this to me...please!!!...you are mine,you belong to me we are meant to be!" She yelled but he is like he isn't even listening to her cause he just slid into his Lamborghini and drove off. Zoë watched her for a while before going to get her luggage to the train station, it's already getting late already.

The cab Zoë board stopped in front of five large building made in a circular shape showing both elegance and wealth with a total of twenty floors for each building. She came out admiring the building with a bright smile there is a beautiful garden in the middle and a vast parking lots with tons of expensive cars, her mouth was opened agape no wonder the earlier cab she took said the student don't ask for change when they board taxi but why would they even board a cab with this cars. She took her luggage out and payed the driver the right amount making sure she doesn't have to leave change for him,money is one of the things she is short on right now.
She looked around again that's when she noticed the big gate with 'Floreg Beauties' written with bold gold letters the door opens and closes itself even though they have watchguard. "Who knew that the girls hostel will be as big as this... what a great luck indeed to finish at Floregerand college" she thought with a bright smile.
Floregerand island runs a three years programme for all the less privileged Floregerand island citizen and there is only one lucky winner that gets to enter Floregerand college other participants would be given admission to neighbouring University that is definitely not as big as this because it is owned by the royal family so it's quite normal. Zoë Arinna is this session lucky winner, she has made her research students here are big time bully they stop when the person is on the brink of death or has a big backer behind that's the only way to survive as a transfer student.
She had done all her necessary documentation before coming here and has been told where to get her roomnumber from, she went there and got her room number despite the piercing gazes from the student. "Fourth building, fifth floor room 15k... weird combo" she muttered beneath her breath.
She knocked on the door but no one answered they are meant to be two each room, it's that way since they are only two thousand student collecting only five hundred student for each level no extra. Most of the student like private hostel or rather mansion so only few are left in the school hostel making it spacious and convenient for them.
She sighed when she got no answer and just use the key they gave her, she didn't just want to barge in apart from the fresher she is the only newbie here and barging in would make a bad impression to her supposed future roommate. The room was spacious with two separate bedrooms and comfortable kitchen and dining for it's size then a reading table with two seats few couches and a tv set.
"Who the hell watches movie in school" she said shaking her head before walking to one of the rooms that seem unused. She unpacked her load change the duvet to her favorite colour blue and did some other resetting, when she was done it was late already so she just took her bath and locked everywhere necessary then fell on the couch with a stressed sigh."I didn't even eat... I'm so hungry" she smiled bitterly she wish she could say these words but maybe not everyone was destined to know how to be hungry.
