" Looking at your profile and all, we've decided that we would get back to you" said the man wearing a blue suit.

"Okay thank you sir" I say making my way out of the board room.

"She has an excellent record Mr Richard" one of the board of directors whisphered but I couldn't turn around to see who it was.

"Phew, that was nice"

"Thank you, have a great day" I shouted to the receptionist.

Deciding to check my phone, I saw three missed calls from my boyfriend Dwane.

"Oh shit" I said as I quickly dialed his number

"Hey sugar pie" he said as he picked on the second ring.

"Hey love, I missed your call" I exclaimed while blushing, his ability to make me blush never ages even after three years of our relationship.

" Yeah, Where you at?" He asked

"Hmmm I went to the grocery store for mom" I lied cause I wanted it to be a surprise to him since we really haven't spoken about University yet.

    Mirabel's PovThis morning I took a cab to the school, despite my mom and boyfriend offering me a ride.There was nothing wrong with taking a cab if you could catch one. I also didn't want to impose since I wanted to go get a dress for the birthday party. Mom's office was right around the corner of the boutique I went to get a dress at. She'd have to go back and forth just to give me a ride and I didn't want that so I took a cab.I was in luck because the driver had excellent taste in music.Soft jazz tunes were playing in the background while I went through my mailbox. I smiled seeing University of California in the list of emails I received. I tapped on it and read through it.Miss.MirabelYou impressed us once again. We would like to inform you that your request to be a student in our university has been approved.

    Mirabel's Pov.It is naturally soothing to wake up to the soothing orchestra of birds or to the early morning rays from the shining sun. I had imagined waking up to any of the aforesaid scenarios today and not to the banging sound of utensils or the smell of burnt bacon and cheese.Another bang of silverware and stream of curses had me jumping out of bed. What was going on?Slipping on my bedroom shoes, I yanked the door open and walked down the hallway only to break into a light cough as smoke assaulted my lungs.Jesus, is there a fire outbreak happening in the house?My unspoken question was answered a second later when I saw Dexter sprint out of the Kitchen, almost crashing into me."What's going on?" I asked as I rushed over to the drapes in the living room and quickly parted them. I then opened the windows and balcony doors to allow the morning breeze to sweep out the smoke."A little cooking disaster, I dare to say." I would have noticed the unusual pink on his cheeks if I hadn
