Invisible String

Chapter 2

***************

Papa is already waiting outside, where heading to the university I'll be enrolling. But before I leave my room I give myself I one last glance in my floor mirror, I have a natural long black hair below my shoulder lengths, Almond eyes, thin sharp nose, and pinkish lips, I'm not short neither tall just a Filipina height, my skin is like a chocolate with a milk maybe because I have spanish blood since my grandfather is half Spanish.

I'm wearing a white polo topped with a peach sando dress that almost reach my toes and brown boots as my footwear. My mama said that I should wear simple.

I was appended to them since I was a child and we never talk about my parents. As far as I can remember they just told me they're I'm abroad and we never heard about them again.

"Hop in" said my papa. He's already inside his Ford Taurus car, he is ineed handsome no wonder why my mama never let him go, he's successful, ambitious, gentle and his blue eyes is the most attractive I just wished I got his eyes. He's tall , porcelain skin ,pointed nose and white haired.

While my Lola has this long curly hair, she's also white as snow, pinkish lips and pointed nose, soft spokned she said she has slender body before but it was before. But if you will look at her she still has this curved though her body is quite pop a little bit.

Mama sit in the passenger while I sit at the back.

I noticed a paper that has my name on it.

" Laina you ready?" Mama asked.

*I smile as a reply

I was about to open it but mama tries to talk to me about how should I be like this and that blah blah blah

" Mama do you think, it is better to have a apartment near at my university if ever?" I randomly asked

" Dear I will missed you every single day" she replied.

" And we don't know if it's safe" my papa insisted

"Papa it's like I am the daughter of mayor that needed protection" I jokely said.

*Silence

"Joke!" I insist

I put the paper in my bag, I never noticed I fell asleep while we're on our way.

**********

"We're here" mama said.

I rub my eyes, how long did we travel? I think it's just a hour far from home.

I look in the front and I see a tall gate, it is made of steel and it feels like no one would ever dare to ruined.

We entered in a oval gate and made our way into the parking lot. There are only few students here and mostly men's.

When we saw the long straicase, I told my mama that I would be the one who will go to the registrar.

My feet is shaking as I reach the top floor, It is indeed a huge university, there are 3 floor and maybe around 6-7 rooms per floor. There are open field at the center and it's like the whole building is in-circling that filed. The building in concrete and painted with white while the roof is bricked.

I got into the registrar and fill up the information need, when the registrar read my surename she stared at me for seconds.

"Ms. Maria Laina Elizaldez" she said and raised her eyebrows to me.

"Yes?"

"Your signiture please" she said and handed me my paper

I sign my signiture. I took psychiatry, it was my dream since I was a child. I never get to grow together with my parents, I never knew them at all. I always ask them but they always circled around the topic to avoid my question until I gave up questioning them. The registrar gave me my school uniform and ID she asked me if I would stay in our school dormitory but I told her no.

"Here is your schedule, starting of the classes is next week" she said and close her window.

What a grumpy young lady, I murmur to myself

*Sigh
I can't believe I need to Walk down to that long stair again. I walked pass to a guy who's in rush to go upstairs, he must be also a enrollee.

Before I got back to our car I stroll around the university to be familiar with things and I will not be dummy in the first class. There was a cafeteria in the second floor.

"One coke please" I told the lady and handed her the 50 peso I have, she gave the my 25 peso change.

When I already reach the ground floor, I took a picture in the field just for memories, I don't post that much I prefer private life, social media is full of toxicity and I choose not to inhale it. I look at the photo there was a lot of enrollees today, some students are playing football, some are picnicking together with their friends below the tree and some are casually walking back and forth, probably fixing their papers.

"Hi" I jumped in shocked when a guy? Or girl? Approach me

"Hello" I greet back.
"I'm Fern, enrollee do you know where Is the registrar?" He/she asked

Fern looks man but I can feel the feminine energy in him.
"I'm Laina, as far I I can remember in the third floor third door in the left hallway" I directed fern.

"Thank you, btw what program you take?" Fern asked. We are still standing in the hallway like a people with no spatial awareness

"Psychiatry" I replied.
"Finally my classmate!" Fern jumped in excitement, I can feel the feminity running through his blood. Lol lainaaaa stop stereotyping I imaginatively slapped myself.

"Mkayyy then I need to go bye see you next week" fern hurriedly go to the third floor.

"What happened?" Mama ask. When I reach them, They're sitting in the bench under the tree.

" She said school is about to begin next week, and she gave me my uniform and Id". I told her

"Oh btw she also ask me if I would like to stay in our school dormitory but...... I said no" I continued.

The three of us head back to our car going back home.

*******

As soon as we got home, I grabbed my paper and pen and head in our backyard and lay my body in prone to the ground

Dear Diary:
It was such a very tiring day yet very exciting i feel the pressure in my new school. How I wish I have Solene here with me. I miss my best friend so much, we haven't talked after our graduation. She was my best friend since Junior highschool and I grow to old with her but I think she's bussy in her law life, she has because my dorothea. And I was about to take psychiatry. Wish me luck diary!

Sincerely: Laina

I closed my notebook and open my phone, I was scrolling through my facebook.

"What is the invisible string theory, so basically invisible string theory is a theory that you met or you already encounter someone in your life that you don't know you've met before the actual meet" the girl said in the screen I don't understand her lol, as our society evolves there's always new beliefs and theory that is being invented, I don't know these people but I can't blame them maybe the felt deep abiding love that's why they enter such a commitment.
