On the Other Side...
As Liam took his seat in class, Rayan leaned over and asked, "She still hasn't stopped bothering you?"
"No, man, it's such a pain in the ass. I can't even do anything about it without hurting Aunt Elizabeth. I've lost count of the number of times I've rejected her advances. I can't even have a few peaceful days at home," Liam said, massaging his forehead to relieve the tension.
Rayan patted his friend's shoulder, trying to ease his irritation.
Their conversation was cut short as the professor entered the classroom.
Meanwhile, outside, a Lamborghini Veneno sped through the university gates at lightning speed, captivating everyone with the driver's skillful handling. When the car came to a stop in the parking lot, a stunning girl with deep blue eyes and straight chocolate brown hair emerged.
She stood at 5'8" and wore a white knee-length one-piece dress paired with simple stilettos and a brown leather bag from Guess. Her outfit perfectly complemented her fair skin, enhancing her beauty even more. She looked like a goddess descended to earth, leaving everyone, both girls and boys, mesmerized by her presence.
She glanced around for a few seconds before walking towards the admin block.

Finally, the first day of college ended, and students poured into the corridors, heading to their various destinations.
"It's just the first day, and they already started with the lessons," Vickey complained as the group made their way towards the parking lot.
"As if it makes any difference to you. It's not like you were listening to a single word the professor said," Jude retorted.
"You..." Vickey pointed his index finger at Jude, trying to come up with a retort, but no words came out. He huffed and walked towards his vehicle angrily.
"These guys—when are they going to grow up?" Jenny commented, shaking her head at the two idiots walking ahead.
Once they reached the parking lot, Alex called out, "Guys, I just got a few passes for the 'Neon Lights' event tonight. Shall we go?"
"We don't have any other plans for today. Let's go," Ria said.
"I never say no to good music and booze," Jude added.
"Okay then, let's go," Alex said.
Neon Lights was held at the beach, vibrantly decorated with LED lights. Food trucks offered a wide variety of options, while DJs and live bands performed on stage, creating an electrifying atmosphere.
Liam and his group danced, drank, and ate until they were too drained to stand. They collapsed into an open tent near the seawater, chatting nonsensically.
Suddenly, a cool wind blew some sand particles into Lily's eyes. She tried to rub them out, but it only made things worse, causing her eyes to water from the discomfort. The others tried to help by blowing on her eyes, but it didn't work. They thought of using water to wash the sand out, but there was none in the tent. Liam grabbed an empty bottle and hurried to the water dispenser nearby.
He filled the bottle quickly and rushed back to the tent. In his haste, he didn't notice someone walking in front of him and bumped into them, causing his water bottle and the other person's phone to fall. Since the cap of the bottle wasn't screwed on properly, water spilled all over the phone.
"NO!" "FU*K!" they exclaimed simultaneously, glaring at each other in frustration.
