Chapter five

Chapter 5

I got out of the car and I looked up and saw it Starman college. It was as beautiful as I had imagined it was way bigger than I imagined too.

This college was known to be one of the best in California like I mentioned earlier, with its recommendations and grade A teachers you were already on a path to a bountiful and respectable future if you were accepted. I stared at it for a while and I was imagining my road map to becoming the best international lawyer the world has seen when my mom spoke.

“This is the big one peach, this is the big one, this is the big one” my mom said as she burst out in tears, I knew she was emotional she probably could not believe she was able to pull it off and provide me a good life.

“Mom mom no no mom not this, not now” I tried to comfort her.

“I know, I know, it’s just that you’ve grown up so well that I’m so proud, look at you, you are standing right in front of Starman and see you becoming the star you are fated to become already” She continues sobbing as she pecked my cheeks and starred at me.

“I promise you mom, I’ll come out with honors in international law” I gave her an assuring look as I tried to make her feel better. She nodded and just then Davis came out of the car, I’m guessing he had wanted to but he probably saw our emotional outburst and stayed a while longer.

We entered the school and it had a hall way that was thrice the size of the neighborhood park. It had many paintings and other artworks; the interior was amazing with a twin statue, we saw many individuals, some looked like parents obviously, others looked my age, most looked older.

“wow” I said as Davis walked pass me

“Thanks for the ride, Mrs. Goldtown, I’ll find my way now”

“You are welcome Davis, have a good time” my mom replied as he left I watched him disappear in the crowd.

“Now let’s go find the general hall, that’s where the dean will be giving his address for newly admitted students and their parents” my mom added

“okay” I replied

“Um excuse me child do you go here?” she asked a boy that had a look that screams Anti-social.

“Yes ma’am” he replied

“Can you direct us to the general hall” she asked

“Yes, I’m headed there, you can come with me” he replied as we both went along with him.

We got to the hall and people were already seated down, we quickly grabbed a seat and after five minutes the dean made his entrance. He was a 5’2 man with bulgy eyes, bald hair and a very big stomach, he looked pregnant.

“Good day ladies and gentlemen, students, tutorial and non-tutorial staff, guests and newly admitted students. We welcome you all to another chapter in Starman college, yes it is a new section” the spoke as the crowd applauded. “The previous section was a remarkable one as the great grand daughter of the founder returned to California and came to meet us all, she sponsored the best students by allocating their fees till the end of their stay in Starman to her accounts” he continued as they applauded. “We won the award of best college the United States and was given other great recognition. Now it is another section, we have new students admitted. One peculiar thing about Starman is the fact that its selection process is quite complicated and challenging, we don’t just select any one we come across, it is a careful process where only the best and nothing less is sent letters of acceptance. Newly admitted students, if you are in this hall today note that there is something special about you and that specialty is why you are sitting right now and listening to me, so do not mess that up and do not make us for any reason think we made a wrong choice. To the parents, your lads are in good care, we have specially prepared hostels and for those that do not want to stay in a hostel can sort out accommodation outside the school. We have grade A professors so be rest assured that your lad will get nothing less than grade A lectures and grade A lecture means grade A path to success. Students take your education serious as many opportunities that will secure your future will always pop up, grab each opportunity. Remember we only get to experience college once in our lifetime, so have fun and never forget education breeds Stars, thank you”. He concluded as he left the hall along with other teachers

“My little star” my mom added as she smiled emotionally and looked at me.

“Okay peach I’ll go finish the registration; you can go find your hostel in the meantime” she added

“Okay mom” I concluded as she left.

I made my way out of the hall and I searched for the hostel. I finally found the hostel block.

“Room 27” I spoke as I looked through the numbers engraved on room doors to find out which was mine. I finally found room 27, I hesitated before opened the door but I finally opened and two girls, supposedly other occupants of the room where there already. The girls I saw looked um British and their looks had already given them away.

The first girl was a bit skinny with blonde hair, her eyes where shaped like sharp knives ready to cut and was average heighted with lots of piercing and a tattoo of a skull on her collar bone. I know I felt shivers through my spines too when I looked at her.

The second girl was taller with a nice body, she was beautiful with a golden-brown hair, she had light blue eyes that looked like sky, her entire face looked like it should be kept in the hallway with other amazing artwork. She wore a skimpy dress that ensured that most of her body parts were seen. She looked like she was out to seduce someone.

I stared at them with a disgust look in my eyes.

“what are you staring at huh” the first girl asked

“She is probably one of those mummy girls that do not come in contact with people like us” the second girl added mockingly.

Before I could say anything my mom barged into the room and the look she had wasn’t welcoming.
