Mirror Soul

7 am in the morning, Kenda just woke up. It was Kendras off day. She prepared hot water with a sliced lemon for herself and stayed in front of the gate. There was a long bench and a table. Kendra sat there. She was reading newspaper while sipping hot water with a sliced lemon.

She turned her face in front of the gate and surprised.

There was a man standing in front of the gate. Kendra recognized it easily.

"Larry, what are you doing here?" Kendra asked.

"I am here to see you."Larry said.

" To see me..for what?" Kendra wondered.

" I am staying near here. We are neighbors, remember?" Larry said.

" Oh, yes! I remembered we are neighbors. Come inside."Kendra said.

Kendra and Larry had both a good conversation. Kendra did not even notice that Larry fancy her. Kendra never thought of any kind of relationship with her students or anyone related to her workplace.

"Come on Larry, we are friends here outside of the language center but inside of the language center you are my student so dont be shy. Be yourself because I am not gonna eat you."Kendra teased and laughed.

"What are you gonna do today?Aren't you going to the center?" Larry asked.

"Nope.. Its my off day. It is better yet to enjoy it so I am planning to go somewhere later afternoon."Kendra said.

" Nice, because its my off day too." Can I go with you?" Larry asked.

" No, You cant."Kendra said.

"Why not?," Larry asked

"Maybe you have more important things to do then than coming with me. Dont you have friends in this country?"Kendra said and asked.

"No, I am here studying alone in this country. I am here to review for my entrance exam for a college in Australia that I am gonna take next year ."Larry said.

"That's the reason then why you are here in this country."Kendra said.
