Chapter 2

“you slept with me” he replied calmly.

Stella thought that she'll may faint at the very moment, her head started to spin, her legs started to shake. She was already expecting such kind of situation, she already thought that it might have happened between them but hearing the bitter truth from him was more painful than thinking about it.

“you may leave, you're wasting my time” he continued.

She couldn't believe her eyes that how he can be so rude after spending a night with her even when she was unconscious, she assumed herself as a tissue paper which this man used and now throwing out like trash. She was disgusted with herself that she lost her virginity to a man who was not even worth it. She was continuously blaming herself that why she even drank and ended up in his room? His complete ignorance made her look at the door and she took heavy steps to go back. 

After entering her room, she sat on the bed and started to cry loudly.

“Stella Erek is now nothing” she thought to herself, “now what I'll do? How I will face my friends? Who'll accept me now? Am I just a trash now? How can I be so dump head that I entered his room? Why I even drank?” questions kept flooding her head.

After crying for an hour, she was feeling better. She stood up and remembered that her friends would be waiting for her, as for today they have to go back home. 

Stella was a first-year student, a fresh start in university is always challenging, but she was 19-year-old and had a daring nature. She took those challenges as a first step towards her dreams and accepted them gladly as she was hard working. Her father died when she was twelve in a car accident while catching the culprits, he was a cop. Since then, her mother took care of her as a single parent. Her father left them with lot of savings for her education but her mother still had to work hard to make living for each day. Stella wanted to do her majors in business administration and become a general manager in city's most well-known company. Nothing became a barrier in her dreams. She did her high school with good grades with the spirit that she has to do something to make her mother proud of her. She easily got her admission in university of ST Andrews, school of management. She was very proud and everything was going well. At the end of her semester her fellows planned a trip to Glasgow which included a small tour around the city and a party at the Royal grand hotel. She was very excited; it was her first trip outside the ST Andrews, her mother gave her permission. The thing she was all worried about was her party dress. She wanted to look special among all the girls.

Arther was attending that party too, she had a long crush on him since the very start of school. He was Italian with olive like complexion, long height, broad shoulders and with a good sense of humour. His personality was attractive, and every girl around him was fallen for his glorious company, including stella. Stella bought a long red dress, sleeveless and a long zip running down her backbone to make fit and give a shape to the body. It was indeed expensive, but she had her savings. She was all done for her trip.

“you're really planning to take his breath away this evening” said Clara, when they were returning from the last tour of museum in noon.

“I really want to” stella giggled.

Clara was her only best friend in the class, they had somethings in common which led them to a great friendship.

“are you going to confess too?” she asked.

“yes, maybe I'm trying to put my all-courage and tell him today” said stella.

“I think you should wait until he confesses himself, I've seen him many times around you, he's interested in you too, wont it be cool if he proposes you?”

Clara was concerned that what if stella has to face some kind of embarrassment. And what if he denied? So, she used suitable words to explain it to her, and she was successful.

“I guess you're right, I should wait and let him do it, it will be great!” said stella agreeing with her. 

Around 8, O clock, she reached. Her blood started to flow faster as she saw Arther busy with his friends, taking a drink in the corner of the club. Everybody was busy dancing with their partners. Clara saw stella staring at Arthur,

“I guess you should ask him for dance!”. Before stella could listen to her and implement her advice, she saw Arthur coming towards her. As everybody couldn’t take their eyes off her, so was Arthur. She was the most attractive girl there; her fellows couldn’t stop praising her. And now she also caught Arthur's attention, what else could have been more charming to her?

“can we dance?” asked Arthur, she suddenly recovered from her imagination.

“sure” she almost hid her shyness.

They danced and drank all the evening. For stella it was her first time drinking, and she lost her senses at the second shot, she wanted to deny but it was very difficult for her to say no to Arther.

“I'm already an adult, what's wrong with taking two shots?” she thought to herself and drank. She was barely in her senses when Clara dropped her to the hotel around 12. They were in different hotels as stella got late in making reservation with Clara and now she had to stay alone in a more expensive hotel nearby.

“don't get late tomorrow! we have to leave at 11” said Clara considerately.
