Sophia and Larry drove off to the bus stop, They arrived a little late, on getting there the first bus has left and they had to wait for the next one. It was a long wait but they didn't feel it much because they had to spend that time getting to know each other well. They talked about so many things, it was shocking to Sophia that Larry Also loves reading books. She has always seen him as a spirited fellow who is so indifferent about books, he hardly visits the library at high school, sometimes she wonders how he managed to excel and even got admission into Berkeley University. Larry had to let the cat out of the bag when she persisted to know how much he reads. Larry told her that he belongs to the category of people that don't need to read long to understand, all he needs, Is to stay in class and then read at night. He made Sophia understand the need for everyone to understand how they assimilate what is being taught or what they read because this helps in saving them a lot

Larry was waiting at the Student's park, a place with a beautiful garden where most of the male students meet with their female friends because they can't enter the female hostel and vise versa. He was seated under the oak tree enjoying the cool breeze of the evening waiting patiently for Sophia. He had called Sophia over the phone and informed her of his waiting, meanwhile, Sophia was doing her laundry and promised to join him as soon as she finishes. Larry took a book with him because he was sure of having a long wait knowing how females can be with their preparation. He was reading 'The Price of a Jewel' it was part of the novels recommended for them in their first year. It was an interesting Novel, he had once told his roommate James how he enjoyed reading the book. He was so engrossed in the book when Sophia showed up and she decided to play a little prank on him, she tiptoed and slowly walked towards where he was seated and covered his face with her two palms. He was shocked a
Sophia couldn't find her lecture venue after a long search, she left early because the Professor has fixed the class at 7 am. She almost toured the whole building until she finally met one of her course mate who was on his way to the venue. She joined Dave at the venue and met the Professor already teaching in the class. She was angry with herself for not asking properly the first time. The building was one of the first she has been to earlier but was misdirected by the cleaner she met in front of the building. She sat close to Dave who made a space for her to sit. She gave him a thankful gesture and focused on the Professor who was almost concluding his lectures. Dave offered to assist her by giving his notepad to her because he has been in class before he left to get something which made him meet Sophia looking around for the venue."That is very kind of you Dave", thank you. Sophia was very grateful as Dave gave her the notepad.You are welcome Sophia, "at least t
Larry has finished his preparation to set out for their first training after the registration. He couldn't contain his joy, he was so eager to engage his skills, it's been like ages to him not have entered the field to play since he got to Berkeley. James can see the excitement on his face from the very moment he woke up. He knew something must be behind it. When he inquired and Larry told him about his training, he requested that he will like to go with him, he wants to be sure if non-participant can come along. Larry told him that non-participant can only come in the second stage, the first stage was just for the participants, and the first level of selection. Janes felt bad because he had always wanted to watch Larry play because of the way they argued during the period Larry was about registering for the training. He wanted to make fun of Larry by teasing him in the field. He made up his mind to be at that second stage since he can't attend this first stage. Larry got to the sch
Larry was having a class when his phone rang, he couldn't pick up because he was near the Professor who was giving them lectures. The phone kept ringing continuously and it was Abigail who was trying to get through to Larry. He still couldn't answer his phone because it was prohibited in the class, under no circumstances should anyone answer a call while a lecture is going on. Larry's face turned pale with a constant stare at his phone, his attention was drastically divided, he couldn't focus on what was being taught. Abigail's call must be something urgent, he thought to himself. She is not someone that calls all the time but only when it's important, especially matters concerning Sophia. Larry was restless because he knew that call must be as regards Sophia's health. He couldn't wish more than the Professor to just conclude and leave the class. Seconds turned into minutes and minutes into hours until the professor announced their next class and exited the class. Larry was a bit re

Larry missed his training while in the hospital, He wasn't able to join the second stage of the training, Peter gave him an update of what happened, how the coach made his selection, and also asked after him. Peter advised him to meet with the coach and explain to him why he wasn't able to make the training. Larry couldn't find the courage to meet with the coach since Sophia was just his girlfriend and not related to him in any way, he wondered how the coach will react to whatever he had to say. Finally, he made up his mind to meet with the coach, and explain why he wasn't at the second stage of training. To his surprise, the coach asked him to join for the third stage in which he will be in the same team as Peter. He was so happy that he shared with Sophia and James. James couldn't believe it because Berkeley's basketball team has a very strict process of selecting their players which is more rigorous than the football team. When Larry got back to the hostel, everyone was congratul
