THE RISING STAR :EPISODE 1



EPISODE 1


As a guy walks into the lecture hall filled with students gisting and enjoying themselves, the whole class turned their attention to the tall guy, with the girls admiring his handsome stature and his cute hair cut while the guys were envious of his befitting blue jeans jacket and his white pairs of shoe and at the same time wondering who he is.

Despite noticing that everyone is staring at him, Pascal remains calm as he walks slowly and confidently with his head lifted, his broad shoulders wide, his back straight and slow footsteps, moving towards the back of the class where he sat down, he brings out his headphone and started listening to "Candy shop by 50 cent", he likes the beat so much as well as the lyrics.50 cent is one of his favourite artists.

"Good morning students" shouted a cheerful lecturer who just entered the hall ,without waiting to get the response as the students replied immediately "Good morning Mr Collins", Right now, we have in our midst the son of the Vice chancellor of this great university, his name Pele Pascal, he crossed from Yale University and we are happy to have him in this music department and as a mate to you guys in this 300 level class, that’s him at the back of the class ,he pointed"

The students turn their heads once again to watch him as he removes his headphone and hung it on his neck with a little smile on his face.

"If you want to know him more, just go to him for a small chat, he is a nice and cool guy", Mr Collins said smilingly.

"Now,to the business of the day, Music dynamics, i won't be able to lecture you guys today but i have uploaded the PDF format of the note on the school website, make sure you download and read it before next week class, very important , i repeat, very important! He concluded.
He was already leaving the hall when he shouted "ehn ehn Pascal, see me in my office now, very important too.
"Okay sir" Pascal responded as he stood up and left the hall.

shouted, like the crying of a mother who lost her
baby.
As Pascal heard his name, he looked outside the
glass and saw a girl who is heavily soaked in the
rain and almost shivering to death.
"Come in ,Come in" he said as he opened the other
front door for her"
She entered with her soaked body and water
started drooling into his car, Pascal watched for a
second as it drools and she noticed him.
"Am so sorry", She said remorsefully.
"That's a small thing ,i will take care of it later" he
said ,as he looked into her face and admired her
natural beauty and quickly taking his eyes off her
to offer her a face towel to clean her body.
"Thanks" ,she said as she collected it.
Pascal continues driving, then after some few
minutes, Pascal saw that she is now done cleaning
her body, then he asked;
"What's your name?
"Rihanna" she replied gently.
"Holala! he exclaimed...you sing too? He asked as
he switches attention to her.
"No, I am not an artist" as she smiles widely.
"But you like listening to music ,right?
"Yes and i like singing too" ,she responded.
"That's nice" ,Pascal replied.
"So where are you going now?
"Queens Hostel" ,she responded.(now feeling
comfortable with him)
"Okay, we are almost there.(he said and thought
to himself that despite her beauty she is the soft,
gentle and humble type).
He continued, "where is your room, maybe i will
pay you a visit one day?
"Really?, You don't mean it!, She said smilingly.
"I will ,i promise ,he said, with a little smile.
(stops car as they are already in front of Queens
hostel)
"Block M, room 205" ,i will be expecting you
Pascal, thanks a lot for the lift. ,she said.
