It just came into mind that I never did introduce myself to anyone, I just started rambling on and on and on about the things that are happening around me. My name is Miyelani Jackson, but my friends call me Mimi. I am 22 years old and I just finished varsity.

I've been an orphan all my life, well not all my life but it started when I was 4 and my parents had gone to a wedding. They never did come but the police did come knocking for me so they could take me to the orphanage. I was never lucky enough to be adopted so I stayed in the orphanage until I turned 18 and I could go to varsity. I am 5'5, with a coffee complexion, with brown eyes that have a speck of green and blue (don't ask me why) and my own natural hair that reaches my back, I had a curvy but small body cause I was a size 28 on my waist but I had nice curves and ass that most people believed was fake for my body.

As I sat there watching Mr Greek God speak I couldn't help but wonder how life would be like if I was to end up as his wife or have a man like him in my life. He introduced himself as Mr Alexander Xavier Knight, his voice is so deep, rough and husky that it sent a tingle to my core. He kept his speech to a minimum, maybe I am dreaming but I could have sworn he kept his eyes on me as well. Of course he kept his eyes on you, I mean we are hot. And I so wish you would start believing that. I don't wanna die a virgin with a thousand cats. I couldn't help but chuckle at the comment my conscious made. She may be annoying but she sure does know how to keep smiling.

When Xander finished his speech we were all called one by one to receive our degrees. So the procession was as such, you take your degree from your VC, then you move to the Dean and finally you get a picture taken with Mr Knight. I couldn't help but wanna snatch every single girl who wanted to stand closer than necessary with Xander. Okay calm down girl, no need to get all attached to the guy who will forget you once you leave here. I don't wanna lie, that thought did make me wanna cry out in pain for some odd reason. When my name was called, I walked on stage and received my degree from the VC and posed for a picture. I walked to my Dean and posed for a picture afterwards she congratulated me for my success and wished me luck on my journey. I then walked to the Greek God known as Alexander Xavier Knight, when I got close I noticed that he was at least 7'2, had blue/green eyes with a speck of gold, firm lips and midnight black hair that was short and well-trimmed. His body was muscular with broad shoulders and strong looking arms. He wore a black suit with a blue shirt and it was a tight fit. When I got close to him, I couldn't help but notice how his eyes sparkled with joy (Well that's what I believed it was). When I stood next to him, it was like he was made just for me, the way he towered over me and shit. I must be mistaken cause I could have sworn I had him say: Yes we do have a beautiful mate. I must be exhausted from the show I put on. After our picture was taken I wanted nothing more than to stay by his side. After our picture, we shook hands and I felt a current shot through me and he said Well-done Ms Jackson. I died and went straight to heaven at that moment.

Once the procession was done, we all stood up and walked in small groups with friends and families. My small group consisted of just my friends since I don't have any family. How I wish mom and dad were here but it's all part of life. We started to take pictures as group that consistent of Blake, Sara, Alice, Ryder and myself. And yes I was a third wheel but I didn't mind, I was used to being like that cause Blake and Sara have been dating since I met them. Alice joined our group at the beginning of the first year when she started dating Ryder. Blake had brown shaggy hair with green eyes, Sara and Ryder were twins with blonde hair and brown eyes while Alice had reddish hair with blue eyes. They were all just gorgeous and I felt plain when I stood next to them.

"I'll miss you guys so much"

"Why are you acting like we might never see each other again? Is there something you're not telling us Mimi?" questioned Blake with a raised eyebrow.

"Oh yeah about that, I am leaving for Botswana in a few days" I answered while looking down.

"WHAT!?" Came the reply but it was not from my friends, instead it was from the Greek God or Xander for everyone else.

We all turned around and we came face to face with an angry looking Alexander Xavier Knight, if this was a cartoon you'd see the smoke coming from his ears. But the troubling or funny part was that while all my friends looked scared, I felt the need to calm him down and explain my sudden departure. Weird, I know.
