NOT AS BEAUTIFUL AS HEAVEN S1/S2

Chapter 14 S2. Early College

Dita felt like she was on an adventure when she stepped into the new campus that would become her home for the next few years. He still looks a little groggy and not too sure about anything, but he feels very excited to start a new chapter in his life. After exploring some of the buildings, he finally looked for a canteen and ordered some warm tea.

While waiting for warm tea, Dita mused about all the things she wanted to do at this new campus. He wants to establish good relations with his professors, join clubs or organizations, and has put together several names to call.

Dita also hoped that she would be able to forget all about Axel. Burying his name deeply.

Then, he pondered about his own house, precisely the boarding room. He hopes to get a good roommate and that they will become best friends.

The first day of orientation, Dita attended college on time. He noticed that there was one more confused girl taking care of ID cards.

"I did too, though. What do you need help with?" haul it to the girl.

"O-oh, thank you very much" said the girl with a smile.

"Later if you are confused about anything, you can ask me or friends" said Dita as she reached out. "I'm Dita, want to know you," he continued.

"I'm Elfa, nice to meet you," replied Elfa while holding Dita's hand.

A week passed, Dita was very familiar with her friends. They often play to the mall or watch together, usually accompanied by their friends one other cost. But Dita can also enjoy with her friends.

That day, Dita and her friends were hanging out in the dorm lobby.

"You're just stress doang, Ci. Just like me," take Dita to Ci, one of his friends who again confided.

"You don't understand, Dita," protested Ci.

"I understand, ci. You need a vacation" said Dita.

"Again Dita who has a solution for stress," joked Jihan, another friend of theirs.

Dita just a smile doang, understandably already familiar with friends who have problems. Dita seems to have started to get along with other friends.

Dita tries to be friends with anyone. He used to not easily get along with other friends, because Dita thought he did not need friends while Axel was with him. Now he changes his mind and tries to open his heart to accept the presence of new people.

If both parents see, surely do not believe the changes that occur in Dita at this time. He's more open and slang.

Already a few weeks of college there, he also began to understand how to survive living alone in this city. Going to college early in the morning has become a tradition for Dita. It was great to be in another city, meeting new people.

Everything becomes more exciting by being part of a group of friends who are familiar. She was so happy because she felt she was not alone.

"But you too are a part of us, Dita," they all responded with friendly smiles.

It feels more comfortable with this city. It seemed like he had completely forgotten about Axel. He can only be grateful to be able to go to college here.

A few months later, Dita went to the window of the cafeteria while splashing tea on her laptop recovery software. There's Elfa coming and hanging out with him.

"Eh, you play this game too huh, Dita?" ask Elfa while watching Dita's screen.

"Yes, I've also been added to this," replied Dita while jealous of Elfa who was already caoer than him.

"What level have you not passed yet?" ask Elfa again.

"Not yet, I'm stuck at level 68."

"Well, what is it? I've passed that level" said Elfa.

Taken only giggles. "I'm a fool," he said as he turned over yeuh.

"I'll tell you the secret to pass that level" Elfa bargained.

Accept it with a smile. He is very happy to have friends who can share knowledge, help him when there are problems, and grow together in excitement or difficulty.

Today Dita invited Elfa to the boarding place of her lover. She was afraid that someone would misunderstand her, a girl came to a man's boarding house.

"Well, if I'm just a mosquito repellent" Dita joked. A once-famous quiet and shy Dita has disappeared. He was trying to be a different person.

"It won't be a mosquito repellent. I'll hike you up with Kak Rio's friend. Handsome guy. Honey I'm having a boyfriend, if not, I've approached that guy" said Elfa.

"Don't try to match me again!" said Dita.

Elfa has several times match Dita with several men. But the girl always refused. He has not opened his heart to other men, not that he still remembers Axel. Just can not accept the presence of men other than as friends.

Arriving at Rio's boarding house, Elfa comes to the lover's room. Knock slowly. Moments of footsteps approached, and the man opened the door.

Dita was silent looking at the man who opened the door. A face that was no stranger to him. The girl took a deep breath, to neutralize her heartbeat.
