16 Chapter 16. Waiting and Imagination (1/2)

The food was delicious. She didn't had anything to eat since last night, and now she ate ravenously. Taking the last bite, she felt complete.

During this whole time both Islinda and Roselia didn't utter a word and ate, with silence enveloping them.

Roselia took the water jug, which was placed in the middle of the table, filled her glass, she gulped down the whole glass in one go, then she turned to face Islinda, who still continued eating in a slow pace while looking at the door, as if she was expecting someone's arrival.

Even for every now and then, she is taking peeking glances at the entrance of the hall, hoping to see someone, as she ate chewed lightly on her food.

Roselia filled her glass again, began to sip slowly as she eyed Islinda, taking a small sip, ”Are you waiting for your boyfriend to come and feed you? ” She stated sarcastically to Islinda, who didn't avert her gaze from the door from past 5 mins. She sure is waiting to see someone. But, who was that?

It piqued Roselia's curiosity and wants to know who was that person she wants to bump into. Well that was obvious from her behavior.

Islinda turned to face Roselia, who's face got filled with a hint of curiousness just like gossipers, who are with all ears to know the latest interesting rumours that run around.

Roselia's question made Islinda to pause momentarily, she forgot that she came here with Roselia as she got engrossed to watch the entrance door. However, clearing her muddled mind, she slightly smiled at Roselia.

Roselia instantly understood Islinda's hesitation to reveal the truth, so not wanting to probe further and giving her space, she didn't ask anything anymore.

However, Islinda completed her meal in hurry and got up from her seat to place the plate at sink, while Roselia followed her closely.

Now, the dining hall was filled with many students, with their laughter and chattering. It was sure brimming with students.

After placing their plates neatly in the sink, both Islinda and Roselia made their way back to the room together.

Roselia thought she could catch a glimpse of the boy who crashed into her earlier or the girl who helped with her luggage. But, that wasn't the case. In the whole hall, she didn't even find someone similar to their shadows.

”That was so disappointing, though”, she thought as she made her way out. She don't know why, but she felt a special bond towards those two people. Ethan was the first person she encountered and Vivian was the first person who helped her. So, she felt a thing for them and want to know more about them. If possible, she is anticipating a little much too.
