It was an incredible semester yet it happened and left him stocked in a dilemma,Mallow had severally thought of it but he never believed it could happen to him.
As a young 200 level student in his early twenties at the University of Norwayou, located at the Hilly Northern Central region of the country, Mallow was exposed to a certain level of pride and respect among his colleagues; it's a well known fact that he was the only student with the cumulative grade point average (CGPA) of 4.9 in Engineering department with no credit (C) or pass (D), attached to his first year novice result; all this Mallow always tells his friends Renrit and Victor about how his parents Mr and Mrs Pan (his father a Business machant and his mother Mrs. Deborah Pandu a Fashion Designer) were behind his mini success. His parents always supports him to his best interest, they are the kind of family he will want to build when the times comes, they were apparently his heroes and he never want to be a disappointment to them which makes him work hard toward his goal.
The skies were abit clear in the evening clouds, with cool breeze pulling as the heavy rain pour gives way to some fresh air, while activities around the off campus residents were belittled by the rain. There was Mallow sited arm fold listening to Burna Boy's music (a contemporary Afro-music artist also popularly call Odugwu) at a barbers shop in D-street block, a popular student's residential area a couple yards away from his rented apartment ; unknown to him a pal, Alpha, who was passing by, cut him smiling by himself decided to say hi.
Werey waiting dey give you joy like this, way you dey smile only you for here? "Alpha said smiling ridiculously."
" Nothing much Bro.,i jus the vibe to Burna new track" Mallow replied with a smile still on his face followed with a hand shake which seems to be a tradition among male acquaintance. They talked for some time with laughter and occasional handshakes, Alpha invited him to a party which was scheduled to hold later that night but 7pm at Helton Center, a nice siren environment where students do hangout, afterward Alpha left hurriedly due to time constraint.
Contemplating whether to go to the party or not, there was Mallow still sited at the spot, after some series of thoughts he finally give in to the idea of going,convincing himself that is a personal invite bases but agreeing only to go and take a look, make my presence notice and zoom-off.
On arrival, Mallow decided to take a walk round the premises, some few minutes later he boomed into Isaac, a close friend to the party host James, who persuaded him to crap a drink with him, after Mallow's normal thinking routine he decided to venture into the idea " what harm can a glass possibly cause" he thought deep within. Some minutes later within the deep of his subconsciousness excitement began to arose and everything concerning the events amazes him and the earlier self agreement was surprised;everything looks amazing from his perspective, more drinks were ordered and the music was playing loud at the background while people were dancing with excitement a few meters away from where they sat. It was a moment to behold as the atmosphere was perfect;even though it was an entire new experience to Mallow, he fits perfectly into every activity: the dancing, she sha smoking, drinking and most especially flirting with the ladies who seems to be the main attraction of the males.
Thanks to his muse, the alcohol, he was rocking every section of the party like a professional clubber.
This series of activities went on for hours, deep into the dark forsaken night, with nothing but music, laughter, drinks and hookups right before he passed out(well, that was the only think he remembered)
