Lucy Turner

Jiten and Alex were sitting in the classroom, waiting for their professor to arrive and start the lecture on Teras anatomy. They were discussing the upcoming exam and their study plans when the door opened, and a beautiful brunette girl walked in. Jiten's eyes widened as he took in her stunning features, her long hair cascading down her back, and her green eyes sparkling as she looked around the room.

The girl approached their table with a friendly smile, and Jiten could feel his heart race as she greeted them. "Hi, you must be Jiten that Alex was telling me about. My name is Emily," she said, extending her hand. Jiten shook her hand and felt a jolt of electricity run through his body. "Nice to meet you, Emily. Of course, you can sit with us," he said, gesturing towards the empty chair beside him.

As Emily took a seat, Jiten couldn't help but steal glances at her, admiring her beauty and elegance. He wondered why someone as stunning as her would want to sit with them, but he didn't let it show. Instead, he decided to engage her in conversation and make her feel welcome.

"So, Emily, what brings you to this lecture?" Jiten asked, trying to sound casual.

"I'm taking the Teras anatomy course too," Emily replied, smiling. "I heard it's a really interesting subject, and I'm excited to learn more about it."

Jiten nodded, impressed by Emily's enthusiasm for the course. "Yeah, it's one of my second favorite courses. Our professor is really funny," he said with a smile on his face. "This teacher is a former student of my father, her name is Lucy Turner. My father told me that she was very intelligent, but everyone thinks that she is crazy!" Jiten burst out laughing.

Alex felt bad for the teacher and asked, "Do you think she is crazy as well?"

"I'm 99% sure that she is mental," Jiten responded while making a crazy face. Emily and Alex laughed, but Emily asked, "By the way, why not 100% and instead 99%?"

"In science, you never know who is crazy or a genius, so we never know," Jiten responded while looking up at the ceiling of the classroom. Alex grinned and said, "Very deep coming from a smoke genius." Jiten laughed and continued, "Lucy is a tera addict, and she made a theory that shows teras have a baby phase she calls them Effigy, but the church of element nullified it for lacking evidence. She is completely crazy, right? A baby tera ahahah."

After hearing this, Alex became pensive, and Emily smiled as they continued to chat about their interests and hobbies. Jiten couldn't help but notice how easy it was to talk to her, and he mentioned Alex's comments about her.

"Oh, Alex mentioned me to you? I had no idea," Emily said with a wider smile, her green eyes sparkling with curiosity.

Alex, who had been engrossed in his own thoughts until then, looked up in surprise. "Wait, what did I say about Emily?" he asked, slightly confused.

Jiten chuckled and filled Alex in on the conversation they had earlier. "I was telling Emily how cool you are, and she seemed surprised, so I assumed you must have said something nice about her too," Jiten said with a grin.

Emily's cheeks turned a deeper shade of pink as she listened to Jiten's explanation. "I-I didn't know you thought that, Alex," she stammered, feeling a bit flustered.

Alex smiled reassuringly at her. "Of course, I do, Emily. You're a great person," he said, making her feel a little more at ease.

Just then, the professor walked into the room, and the students quieted down in anticipation of the lecture. Jiten and Alex settled into their seats, but Emily's mind was still racing with thoughts of the unexpected conversation. She couldn't help but feel a little flutter in her stomach at the thought that Alex seemed to think highly of her.

Lucy while walking to the professor desk she misstopped and felled Lucy Turner was a young scientist, probably in her mid-twenties. She had long, curly brown hair that she usually kept tied up in a messy bun, and a pair of large, round glasses perched on her nose. Her eyes were a bright, piercing blue, and her face was usually contorted in an intense expression as she delved deep into her research. She was on the shorter side, with a slight build, but her energy and passion more than made up for her lack of physical stature. Despite her brilliant mind, she often dressed in a disheveled and haphazard manner, sometimes wearing the same clothes for days on end, as if she didn't have time for anything but her work.
