SEEING HIM AGAIN

We step out of the exam hall, and the summer heat hits us like a wall. The sun is blazing, making the ground almost too hot to walk on. Sweat beads on our foreheads as we search for shade near the canteen. The air is dry, and even the breeze feels warm. Everyone looks tired—not just from the paper, but from the heavy, lazy heat that wraps around the campus. Still, there's a strange comfort in it—the shared relief of finishing the exam and surviving another scorching summer day together.

Today was our Marketing Management paper. We come out of the exam center and start discussing the exam. then we receive a message from the college administration to submit our second-year college admission fees. We head to the office, but they tell us we can collect the slip after 2 o'clock in the afternoon.

I don't even expect to see him today. The last time I see him is a month ago.

My best friend and I stand near the canteen (in front of the Business Department).

Yesterday, I think I will never see him again, but fate..........

I see him coming from a distance, and then I tell Nancy. She looks at me and starts pointing at me.

He comes closer, and I pretend not to see him.

As he starts to walk past us, his friend looks at me and Nancy and says loudly, "Alex, you must be happy today." He says this loudly twice.

Nancy teases me.

Memories come back to me after seeing him..........

...****************...

My name is Rychal. I’m a BBA student, originally from a small village. I live in the hostel with my best friend, Nancy—we’ve been together since school, and honestly, I wouldn’t have made it this far without her.

People say I’m intelligent and calm, and maybe I am. I don’t speak much unless I need to. But I’m not as quiet as I seem—when something gets to me, I do speak up… sometimes a bit too sharply. I get angry easily, but it never lasts long.

I'm a little on the fuller side, with an oval-shaped face that softly frames her features. My medium-length hair falls naturally around my shoulders, simple and unpretentious. my friends say that my eyes are beautiful—calm, deep, and thoughtful—often revealing more than my words.

Nancy is my best friend—my constant since 11th grade. We studied together in school and have shared the same room in the hostel ever since. From school days to college, she’s been right by my side.

She has a round face framed by long, flowing hair that she often ties back when studying. Her small, sparkling eyes always light up with kindness, and her perfect body shape makes her stand out effortlessly. But it’s not just her looks that make her special—Nancy has the kindest heart. She cares deeply about me and everyone around her.

More than just a friend, she’s like family. My parents love her too; they treat her like their own daughter. We’re even in the same class now, and I can’t imagine this journey without her.

Nancy isn’t just important to me—she’s everything.....
