Noah turned to see Kyle and she reached soon, "Don't you stay in the dorms? It's already dark to go out now. What if those guys try to beat you?"

Noah couldn't understand why she was worried about him and why she ignored him when he tried to talk. But still, he responded promptly.

​​

"One of the guys is a roommate. I'm in no mood to handle him, I will check into a hotel for the night."

Kyle was surprised by hearing that. "If you avoid today, how will you manage tomorrow?"

Noah wanted to leave but thinking about how she helped him, he was amiable, "I will get a condo tomorrow if possible. There are new apartment blocks opened recently which are near to the college."

Kyle's eyes sparkled hearing that, "Really? I wanted to check it too. I don't like the food of the dorms' canteen. If you don't mind, can you take me to checkout condos too? I'm new here and I have a poor sense of directions."

Noah responded plainly without caring if what she said was true or not, "Sure, We don't have class till two at noon, I will see you at the west gate of the university at nine tomorrow."

Kyle smiled sweetly. Noah saw her pink glowing face and smiled back, "See you then."

He again turned to leave, Kyle called him, "Noah..."

Noah again turned to look at her and heard her. "Why don't you stay in my room tonight? I'm a single occupant so you can use another bed."

Noah felt like she was too daring to call an unknown man into her room.

His silence led her to talk again cheekily, "I swear, I will not take advantage of you. You can use the hotel money to treat me to a lavish lunch tomorrow."

Both let out laughter standing on the silent dark street under a faint streetlight.

Noah didn't turn down and went to her dorm room which was spick and span. She took out a fresh towel, new toiletries, and handed him.

She contemplated holding her large size t-shirt, "I think this will fit you, use it if you are comfortable but I don't have any bottoms which could fit you."

Noah was speechless for some time thinking about how could he fit into a slender girl's t-shirt. He almost thought she was making fun of him and opened the folded t-shirt to see it was even a size large to him.

He got fresh soon and washed his shirt to wear it the next day.

Kyle handed him her laptop. "This is the website of Newtown you said I guess. I took the appointment from the realtor too. He mailed me the pictures of the different condo. They also have unfurnished to fully furnished condos. Some are for rent and ready to move in, some are for selling. Check out the mail, you will know all the information."

Noah had thought to do it on his mobile. He understood she was serious about moving out of the dorm too.

He hummed and heard her continue, "You can sleep there, I have changed the sheets."

He hummed again and saw her enter the bathroom. He pinched himself once to make sure everything was actually real.

He checked the mail as he sent a message in the Fourie group, [Will you guys believe me if I say I'm in female dorms with the one I don't know anything other than the name and met her just a few minutes back.]

Eva: [The night has come.]

Rian: [Don't cut men's nose.]

Arrie: [So you are into THAT type of girl... Ohhhoo.]

He was teased by his friends even though he said there was nothing going to happen.

At last, Eva had sent, [What if she is a succubus?]

Aria and Rian had sent [👻] ghost emoji before they went offline by kind of freaking out Noah.

'Out of a hundred plus in the class, how could Kyle remember my name?'

'Why didn't she tell me anything about herself?'

'Why there is no roommate?'

'How can she trust me so easily?'

'Did I make a mistake?'

With those questions in mind, he checked out the mail and acted like asleep before she exited the bathroom.

He heard the hairdryer sound for a few minutes before lights turned off and everything went to pin-drop silence.

After he felt like an eternity, he flipped to see a small bunny night lamp on her side. She was sleeping peacefully without any itch due to his presence.

He pulled out his mobile and texted in the group, [You assholes.]

Instead of getting offended by his words, his friends were laughing at him for getting scared.

And he asked, [Do I look so gentlemanly that she isn't even scared of me a peck and sleeping without care?]

Rian sent laughing emojis.

Aria: [Oh Sweetie, Even if that girl stands naked in front of you, you will probably wrap a bed sheet around her and give her mindfulness of wisdom.]

Eva: [You probably donate your clothes to her. 😣😣]

Noah: [😖]

He wasn't sure whether to be happy about it or sad.

Noah: [I'm off to bed 😪 scary ☠️ dreams my Loonies.]

Rian: [Wet dreams brother.]

Eva: [Kyle dreams 💗]

Aria: [Succubus Kyle dreams 💤😈]

Noah accepted defeat. Even though he knew his friends just teased him, he somehow didn't get sleep. He went out to the balcony and called home...

Kyle who woke up early in the morning found him asleep leaning on the rails in the balcony. Sitting on the floor, Kyle curiously poked his cheek seeing his calm face.

But Noah jerked up startling her.

"Sorry! I didn't mean to scare you. Why were you sleeping here? Next room girls are watching you." Kyle looked at the giggling girls on the balcony next to them.

Kyle mumbled going inside, 'They must be feeling like I threw him out after calling him to my room. Ugh...'

Noah ignored those girls and went in. Kyle got fresh before Noah. By the time Noah got fresh, Kyle had brought breakfast for them.

Compared to the chefs at the male dorms cafeteria, female dorms chefs were terrible.

After breakfast, both met the realtor and checked on the condos.

Coincidentally, Noah and Kyle liked the same type of condo which was two bedrooms simple and modern, completely furnished, ready to move in condos.

Noah told the Realtor, "I will buy this one. Let's start the paper process soon."

The realtor was very happy hearing it while Kyle checked her account balance.

"Sir, are you buying it on loan? It might take time for the bank process. If..."

Noah interjected, "I will buy in a single payment." then he noticed Kyle biting her lip looking down.

"Kyle, what's wrong?"

Hesitatingly she responded, "It's out of my budget, I guess I have to manage in the dorms."

"Why don't you two become flatmates?"
