And Isabella herself loved the idea of having the two of them as a roommate but Mrs Parker was not very happy to comply.

Mrs Parker was not very happy about whom Isabella was going to live with and she didn't want their company to affect her academics and therefore denied the whole idea.

It wasn't Marissa that Mrs Parker had a problem from but Lauren. The first time Lauren met Mrs Parker, Based on her decision of wearing a small crop top with leather pants and jacket and the bold lipstick and her Fiery dyed peacock green hair made her decide that her daughter had chosen the worst possible company and she would never allow the two of them To Stay friends, sharing apartment was a different story.

That was the reason Isabella barely mentioned Lauren's name whenever she was having a conversation with her family. her family conversations whenever happened were always talking about her academics and how they were going and whenever she had to mention going out somewhere she would just mention Marissa.

Isabella was on her way to words her hostel when someone forcefully collided into her and made her stop right where she was rubbing her shoulder in pain.

"I'm so sorry! I'm really sorry I wasn't watching" A familiar a feminine voice apologised.

Isabella looked up to find that it was Amanda.

Amanda was one of their fellow classmate whom Laura liked to call weird just like everyone else in the class and Marrisa like to scold Laura for doing so. She was indeed a little weird. She usually stayed away from people sat alone on a bench and never tried to strike up communication or friend relations with anyone. There were times when she missed classes too and those times happened a lot.

When Lauren and Marissa saw Isabella communicating with Amanda for the first time Laura was shocked and annoyed, Marissa on the other hand was confused.

Isabella had once found a little lost girl in the supermarket and decided to help the little girl find her older sister and things turned out in a way that her older sister was no one else but Amanda.

So when the worried looking Amanda found her little sister Julia safe with Isabella the two of them became sort of friends.

Amanda even went through the lengths of offering her a coffee in the local cafe where the two of them talked. Amanda told isabella how her father abandoned her After her mother's death and married another woman so Julia was her stepsister.

Her father barely liked her existence and she had to work hard to pay for the university and that was the reason that she lived in the most dangerous and cheap part of the city. But she did not despise Julia instead she loved Julia as she would have loved her own real sister and tho her father didn't like the relation a lot but on Julia's insistence he had allowed the two of them to spend the day together.

"It's ok Amanda" Isabella smiled But it faded off when she saw the look on Amanda's face.

"Hey what's wrong?" Isabella asked concerned.

"It's Julia! she met with an accident and she is currently admitted in the hospital and she's asking for me" Amanda explained.

"Oh my God! poor little Julia. what are you doing here then you should hurry up!" Isabella gasped.

"I can accompany you if that's what you want" Isabella offered.

"I want to hurry up but the issue is that I need to pay my rent in the coming one hour or the landlord would throw my stuff out. And if I go all the way back home then it would take me around four hours to reach Julia and she is continuously insisting on meeting me" Amanda explained.

"Why don't you just inform your landlord about the accident and pay the rent tomorrow" Isabella asked.

"That man walks up with a stick stuck up in his ass. he would never agree" Amanda cursed.

"Can you please do me a favour Isabella if not for me then at least for Julia?" Amanda asked.

Isabella contemplated it, She was beyond exhausted towards the point where she want to do nothing more than to just crashed into the bed and sleep the rest of the day off but she knew that in the situation like this her exhaustion was the last thing she should be worried about.

"Of course what can I help you with?" Isabella asked.

"Here take my keys! I will text you the address of my apartment. just go there And here take this money and just pay my rent" Amanda explained.

"But I don't know where your landlord lives how will I pay your money?" Isabella asked.

"Don't worry about it just go there and When you enter the hallway you will find that on the door adjacent to the kitchen there is a little wooden patch attached. All you have to do is just drop this money there and then leave. Please please I really need your help" Amanda begged.

"Of course of course I am going just look after Julia and let me know if she's fine" Isabella smiled.

"Of course" Amanda exclaimed before she ran off on the opposite direction.
