"This lights can go here," I suggest. We had been decorating the apartment for a while now. We were done with all the arranging and setting up. Us working together helped us finish the work much sooner than we anticipated.
"Let's make mac and cheese tonight," Alexandra says.
"Yes! The kitchen looks so pretty now. It makes me want to cook." I reply.
"Let's celebrate with some alcohol. Let's celebrate this new apartment, us being here. Everything." Phoebe says.
"Then I guess we will need something more special than simple mac and cheese," I add.
"I know just what to do," I exclaimed, clapping my hands in excitement.
"I am going to do Gnocchi, but I don't like it when too many people are there in the kitchen. So leave that to me." I say. They nod their heads.
"Then I will make some roasted butter garlic mushrooms and some roasted broccoli. " Alexandra pipes in.
"And I will get the wi

“Swipe right on him!” Phoebe took my phone out of my hand and swiped right on the guy.“I was going to do that.” I took my phone back from her.My phone screen lit up. I was greeted with the notification that said ‘Celeste and Brian, matched.’“Text him!” Phoebe screamed.“I am not going to text him first,” I replied, crossing my arms over my chest.“Guys can’t text first on bumble.” Alexandra reminded me again.“What should I say?” I asked them.“You know what, text him tomorrow. Don’t do it right away.” Alexandra suggests. I nod and place my phone on the coffee table.“I think it’s safe enough to get drunk now,” Alexandra says.I get up from my place and go to the kitchen. I retrieve the bottle of vodka and a few other juices to make a cockta

My head was pounding, and my whole body was aching. The sunlight filtered in through my window, and I groaned at its intensity. I smothered my face in the pillow, trying my best to keep the sunlight away from my face. I should remember to put up curtains later if I ever wanted to sleep in peace without the sunlight waking me up.Why were hangovers such a pain in the arse? I tried focusing my attention on the voices, but the apartment was dead silent. Looks like both Phoebs and Alexa, were still sleeping. I decided to sleep for a while too.I had a nagging thought at the back of my head that I was forgetting something important. But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't remember. I shrugged it off and went back to sleep.----"I fucked up big time!" I heard Alexa shout. Her voice rang in my ears, bringing in another wave of pain."Oh for fuck's sake can you keep it down? Some of us are having a hangover here." I shouted back. The

"I am back!" I hear Alexa shout from the front door. I walked out of the room to hear about everything that happened there. She was in there for quite some time, and I was curious as to what had gone down."So?" Phoebe coaxed.Alexa went all red and started fidgeting with her fingers. Now, this was interesting."Are you going to spit it out or are you going standing there blushing for another hour?" I questioned, raising my eyebrow."He-uh- he asked me out." She replied, her voice barely above a whisper."What!" Both Phoebe and I said at the same time."I told him that I was drunk last time, and I wasn't thinking straight." She started. We kept quiet so that she could complete telling the story."He looked me straight in the eye and told me that he did not regret that I kissed him. And the next moment, he is asking me out." She replied. The pink still coating her cheeks."Awww." I

"Don't overwork yourself. Take things slow. You don’t have to take all the responsibilities.” Phoebe says.“I know. I was able to get a loan only for the first semester. I will have to do something and come up with the money for the next one too. And then there is the rent too.” I hated thinking about money. The moment I started worrying about the finances, that’s when I started having anxiety attacks. Somedays it just got worse, that I wouldn’t be able to sleep the whole night.“We can help you with the rent a bit.” Phoebe offers. I shake my head, no.“I can’t accept that. I can’t always depend on you guys when you have your shit to take care of.” I reply. Phoebe frowns.“There’s nothing wrong with taking some help sometimes,” Phoebe says softly.“I know. And trust me I am so grateful that I have you guys.” I tell her

"So how long has it been since you started this business?" I question."It's been barely a year. I started this as soon as I got out of culinary school." He replies."You went to culinary school? That's so cool." I answer. He looked a year older than me, not a day older than 22.“Thanks. What are you studying?” He asked me.“Biomedical genetics,” I replied. His eyes widened.“Girls with a passion for something is even sexier.” He comments. I could feel my cheeks turning red. Was he flirting with me? Of course, he is not.“If you need any help, don’t hesitate to call me. I hope you can take over now.” He asks me, handing an apron with the name ‘sugar high’ printed on it in italics.I take it from him and put it over my head and secure it behind my back.“I guess I can manage. Thanks again.” I reply.

The job at the sugar rush cafe was going great. Currently, I was working 40 hours a week because the school hadn’t started yet. The second it did, it would be reduced to 20 hours a week. Honestly, the amount wouldn’t really suffice for me, so I was looking at some online gigs to do too.Diana was a very sweet lady, she reminded me of my aunt, and she never failed to make me feel like home. She asked about my day, and it was nice to know that I had some elderly person care about even in this unknown country. We all liked to be babied sometimes don’t we?William was sweet just like the cupcakes he baked. He baked other things too aside from the cupcakes, but I was more biased towards his cupcakes. We had gotten close in these two weeks that I had known him, and each day it was getting harder and harder as to not like like him.His warm voice wrapped around me like a warm blanket on a cold day. I found myself leaning towards his

“It’s so fucking huge!” Alexa commented.“It’s even better in real life,” Phoebe commented.“This feels like a dream,” I whispered, feeling as though I was going to wake up any moment and realise that I was back home and I have been dreaming all this while. If I was dreaming, I wish I could be stuck here forever.We were standing at the entrance of the University of Edinburgh; stuck in a trance with the beauty before us.“If we don’t move now, we will be late,” Phoebe says, her voice breaking the spell. We walk further inside, looking everywhere, taking in the beauty before us.We move in three different directions, each one of us going towards our respective buildings. I keep the map open on my phone, checking every second. I was scared of getting lost in this huge campus. I ducked my head and walked towards my first class. I was grateful that nobody wa

The lecture lasted for two hours. There was a brief introduction done, and the professor spoke about the things that we would study. The professor was a middle-aged lady, her hair tight in a bun, with a black neatly pressed suit. Although she looked a little uptight, her personality was nothing like the clothes she wore.I was kind of disappointed that she had started the class right away, I guess we couldn’t really expect them to treat us like kids who didn’t want the teacher to teach anything on the first day.I was more than happy to know that Candace’s combination was the same as mine, and we had everything together. Even our labs were together because both our names started with a ‘C’. Unfortunately, Luke didn’t really have that many classes with us.“I think I will have to replace you with Celeste from now,” Candace commented, looking at Luke’s schedule. We had a half-hour break before
