****part 2 **
I heard a
voice as I was about to fall into a pothole.
“Hey
girl! Watch out,” he said as he held my hand, which actually prevented me from
missing my step. At first I didn’t look up to see the face because I was still
in shock. All I did was open my mouth as I stared at the deep pothole. And I
thought to myself: “What could have happened to me if this gentleman hadn’t
held me.”
At last I
was able to look up and the next thing was a hand outstretched and a smiling
face. “Hey pretty! I am Tony by name,’’ he said as he held my hand without
letting go. I was able to mumble a word as I stammer reel: “My…my…my name is
Mary,” I said as I withdrew my hand immediately. I shifted backwards so as not
to have close contact with him. He smiled as he asked me to move away from the
road. I immediately heeded his words as if I was being controlled. “So where
are you off to this early morning?” he queried me with a one sided smile on his
face.
“I am off
to nowhere, because I don’t even know my way around this place, so I just want
to go my way without any disturbance, if you could please excuse me!’’ I said
boldly without even realizing what I did or said. As I was about to leave, I
felt a strong hold on my hand. I was out of words. I said to myself; “God!
What’s this guy up to.” I went back, trembling. There were many words I had in
mind to say but I couldn’t talk. I was just thinking all to myself. He took a
deep breath, looked at me and said; “Don’t be scared, I know you are a fresher.
Just feel free to come to me anytime you need
help. I’m a 400 level computer science student by the way, so I know the in and
out of this school.’’ I felt a bit of comfort within me and relief, knowing
fully well that there was someone I could count on. I didn’t have to feel the
loneliness of being a fresher anymore. We exchanged phone numbers. That was how
our friendship started with no feelings attached. I felt a sense of belonging
within me that I had met a nice godly guy as a friend, who was ready to help me
without asking for anything.Watch Out for Part 3
