"... That is the legal theory of legislature, executive and judiciary." Fernandez delightfully said in the presence of Wanjiku, the two studying alone in an empty lecture room.

Wanjiku was at him fascinatedly and favorably. She still couldn’t believe she was interacting with him- the famous Fernandez. He was intelligent and smart. He hardly missed or stuttered a word while talking, and he understood efficiently what he was talking about. This was the main feature of attraction she found in the gentleman, and she knew he was more attracted to her than she was attracted to him.

He had been showing the attraction every time they were studying, though nervously. He seemed not to have found his manly nature in her presence. It surprised her, given that she thought and even believed a gentleman of his caliber who attracted all the women around him could be confident and self-assured in front of a woman. Nonetheless, she liked whenever they were together. They learned comfortably and contentedly.

Fernandez looked at her and noticed she was on him, and immediately, his body switched to nervousness. He hated when this happened, "Something... wrong...?" He forced an awkward smile at her, but avoiding eye contact.

Wanjiku smiled while still at him. The shy type. "No, Fernandez. Do you feel uncomfortable when I look at you?" But of course you do.

Fernandez looked indifferent. How is she so relaxed and comfortable! "I... I am okay." He tried to be loose and relaxed, "I am fine by it."

"Look at you, Fernandez." Wanjiku still smiled looking at him, finding herself driven to the gentleman, "You always take things so easy with me. So understanding. Why is that?"

The question, accompanied by the tender and gentle tone the lady used, instantly gave Fernandez a mind block. But he quickly searched for words. I must appear confident! "Uhm... because you are a lovely person who deserves that."

The words surprised Fernandez himself more than the lady. She widened her smile, "It's nice of you seeing me as a lovely person. I really appreciate it." She put a hand supporting her chin on the class desk, "Tell me about Argentina. Is it similar to Kenya in any way?"

Fernandez felt excited and thrilled by the inquiry. She had now changed topics from the study, the main and only reason that brought them together. Is she now interested in me? Does it mean she likes me, too? His thoughts made him confident and wholly relaxed in the company, "Argentina? Well, its official language is Spanish- we call it de facto. Whites are the major ethnic group, among the Amerindian or non-whites, and Mestizo. I think the population is fifty million, just like here, and... the currency is known as peso." He shortly paused, "And generally the country is big and has a lot of information. You can tell me what information you would like to know. And don't be harsh on me. I was born here and know Kenya more than the place."

Wanjiku softly laughed. That is now more like it, "Okay, I won't be harsh on you. Just tell me about Buenos Aires."

"That is fair." Fernandez smiled, "Buenos Aires has a variety of nicknames; the city of books, the capital of Tango, the queen of El Plata, the South American Paris and the Paris of the Pampas. It is, of course, an autonomous type of city and the most visited city in South America, and... the people there are referred to as portenos, meaning the people of the port. It is also a top tourist destination with its European style architecture and rich cultural life with the highest concentration of theatres in the world."

"Wow!" Wanjiku was amazed at the information and how efficiently it was described, yet it was bulk information, “You know the city quite well! That is fantastic." She said with admiration, "Why is it called the queen of El..."

"El Plata?" Fernandez offered.

"Yeah, that is the word." Wanjiku sounded interested.

"El Plata is a river, known as the river of silver. Its major parts are in Buena Aires_"

"Hence the explanation of the queen's name." Wanjiku said with a thoughtful smile, "It sounds like a nice city. Maybe you will take me there one day?"

"It will be my greatest wish." Fernandez breathed with excitement. Talking about such a topic with her felt like partly a dream and a dream come true. He had always been fantasizing and imagining being with her- how it would be. Now I am close!

His excitement kept spreading all over him as he looked at her beautiful face and smile, and suddenly, a thought occurred to him. From then on henceforth, he would be working on pleasing her so that she saw him the only worth of a man before all.
