Unexpected Encounter

Mika came to Cygnus Institute of Technology because her aunt told her that there was a mass entrance examination here. Since students from other school can also take the examinations, her aunt urged her to come because it was really quite an opportunity.

She studied at a university with the same rank as CIT. But there was a news that she heard from her aunt that she decided to come here. Of course her university has also this mass entrance examination from schools all over the country but it was that one thing that only CIT has.

She has no relative here except for her aunt so she is staying with her now.

Her aunt brought her here to roam around the school so that she won't get bored at home. She had already explored around the school for God knows how many times and she already got bored by now. Her aunt was in the library so she thought that she would just read while waiting for her aunt and they would go home together.

She was immersed in reading when suddenly she heard someone coming her way. She was not afraid beacause this was in fact a library and it is quite normal for people to roam around to read books they like. What she was interested about is that person is coming to the section where she was. For her, people would get bored when it is about Astronomy and it is rarely seen as exciting by students except for soneone like her.

She stopped reading and listened to the footsteps. The footsteps came closer and closer then when it was just about near the entrance, it stopped.

'Huh? Where did that person go?' she wondered why the footsteps sropped.

She got intrigued and can't stay stiil to wait for that person to enter so she decided to just go out and see who it was.

....

Peter stopped just right near the entrance to the section and thought to himself about the person reading in his favorite place.

He was about to enter when he noticed something amiss, 'Eh? Wasn't there someone flipping through the books?' he was a little scared now.

A moment later, he decided that he would enter no matter what.

Exactly at that same time, Mika went out.

Peter saw a white silhouette coming out just right in front of him. No matter how fast his reaction was, he didn't have the time to avoid considering the distance between them.

Mika was also shocked by his sudden appearance and was also caught of guard.

..."~Bang.." it sounded like two stars came colliding with each other - at least that was what they hear.

Mika started seeing stars as if there was a meteor shower. They bumped both their heads.

"Hey, don't you have eyes on your head." Mika complained as she moaned trying to feel if there was a bump left by that collision of stars.

Peter have completely forgotten about the pain on his head when he saw that it was a girl and a beautiful one at that. 'It was actually a beautiful girl.' Peter was totally dazed by her beauty.

He cough a few times to clear his voice then he said " Are you hurt somewhere? I am so sorry for what happened Miss...?" he tried to help her with the bump.

"Of course it hurts....Mika." she threw him an angry look. She was angry because of the bump, it hurts but she still chose to tell him her name. In consideration that he was sorry and also because he was an astronomy-lover. She noticed that he was wearing an ID card of CIT so he must be a student here.

"Do you need healthcare service? Is it painful? There is an infirmary nearby. I would accompany you there." Peter was worried that she will have a bad impression of him so he suggested to help out. He seldom meet and interact with girls, except for Julie, in addition to that - Mika is also good-looking so it should not be bad to get to know her.

"It is okay I can go there myself." she was still feeling the bump with her hand. Mika have lost the mood to read so she decided that she would just go and tell her aunt that she wanted to go home.

"Were you the one reading books in here?" although he was sure that it was her, he still asked just to cool down the atmosphere and start up a conversation with her.

"Hmmph..." she snorted angrily. She went inside to get her belongings and put the book back to the shelf then leave without giving him an answer.

He noticed that she is preparing to leave. "Uhmm, Miss Mika...?" he tried to try his luck again.

Mika did not even looked back. She went straight for the stairs.

Peter scratched his head while shaking his head. He couldn't do anything if she chose not to be brought to the infirmary.

'What a waste!' he was disappointed with himself.

He entered the section and started looking for the book that he read the last time he was here. The book was titled The Formation of the Universe. This book is about theories about the formation of the universe. One of the theories proposed that the universe is formed from a massive explosion.

After reading about one theory, he decided to go to the computer. Computers are installed throughout every section of the library. These computers are connected to a WiFi so that student can watch academic trends.

He immediately went to YouTube. He was going to watch videos from the channel Space. He entered in the query box "space flight". He never really get tired or bored of watching anything about space flights. Most of the time he would watch flight of rockets.

He first watch the flight of the flight of Galaxia V with a lunar lander and rover aboard. Galaxia V is the biggest rocket of Ares Space Company. This company is one of those companies who helped with the first moon landing.

As he always come to this section, he have almost read all the book in here while some - he have copies of them at home. So when he go to this section he spent most of his time on watching videos on YouTube.

He have watched videos the whole afternoon. He only got interrupted when his phone rang. It was the alarm, the time is already 3:45 PM. That is fifteen minutes before Julie gets out. He exited the tabs in the computer. He packed up his thimgs and prepared to go to Julie's classroom.
