12 College Life (Part 3) *MultiPOV*

Eric's POV

Hi, I'm Eric. I live in California together with my elder sister. She works in a interior design company.

I in the other hand, go to UCLA, I'm in my junior year for Chemical Engineering.

I have a lot of friends, Even if I have brains I'm an extrovert person. And I like to find new friend every year specially freshmen cough..girls..cough.

A friend of my sister is a freshmen this year and she have instructed me to check up on her from time to time. Then I learned it was Michelle.

Michelle is a social butterfly and because of that many knows her, even around the University.

When one time she invited many of her friend for a lunch date she brought along her room mate, Emma, which most of us fell in love at first sight.

She's HOT! In a innocent and pure way, definitely my new type.

Since then Emma and me has been friends, together with other couple of dudes who have interest in her.

My sister also helped Emma in her part time job.

So, I plan to make a move on Emma, but when I'm on the spot I just cant seem to find the right words to say. And even if I show her that 'I'm interested' she oblivious to it!

It really frustrates me! Even in my Senior year, I cant still confess to her and she still havent notice. Even my friend laugh at me from time to time. It even came to point where I remember my mamas' teaching.

'Maybe Mama was right, they are really girls who are meant to be wed not to be played.'

So, I just let it be. I spent 3 years keeping my feelings in me. I just watch over her.

After I received my license, a company in Canada offered me a job I cant refuse. So, I tranfered there, and the last time I saw Emma was on my Graduation day, and now I heard she's still busy at school, still single and beautiful.

And still an oblivious heart breaker.

Nathan's POV

Hi, I'm Nathan. I'm Hispanic and my grandmother has been my greatest influence, especially in the kitchen.

Abuela is a master in Mexican Cuisine and she taught me alot before she passed away. So even if I pursued a medical career, I still love cooking. So, I joined a Cooking Club in the University.

It was an amazing experience for me. The cuisines are varied, so I learned alot of new cooking style. We also go to Michelin Star Restaurants for experience. It was fun, at the same time a way for me to remember my grandmother.

On my second year we accepted freshmen to our club, there I met beautiful but lonely Emma. She doesn't show it, but I can see. Its the same face as my grandmothers' when my grandfather died from car accident.

My grandmother might have us, but grandfather was her partner, best friend, and support. So, my grandfathers dying struck Abuela really hard.

I can see that in Emma. I can see a sad story behind those smiling silver eyes. That's why I cant helped but be drawn to her.

Since then I watch Emma, I try so hard to be noticed. But it was useless, she never did.

I stayed in the club for 3 more years until I finished my preparatory study. I became so busy at medical school to join the club activities.

I do miss the club, but I think its a better choice for me to stop attending. Away from heart break I think.

I still like her, but she's not just interested on me. She's a goal oriented girl and I accepted and respect it.

I really don't have a chance with her.
