Teacher's Girl (Aflyingwhale)
Chapter 31: Next Destination
IAN's POV :
"I need your help,"Emma said as soon as I opened my apartment door.She was standing there with a long roll of paper, post-it notes, markers, and this huge ass book in her hand.
"Anything for you,"I replied and moved out of her way.
She walked straight for the coffee table and slammed the big book down.She then rolled out the poster thing and it turned out to be a map of the country.I took a seat next to her on the floor and read the title of the big book, The Princeton Review Complete Book of Colleges.
"My parents, my guidance counselor, my friends- everyone wouldn't shut up about college," she groaned and scattered the markers out on the coffee table."So if I'm gonna have to figure this out, I’m gonna need your help,"
"Okay," I said patiently.
This was not how I imagined my Thursday night to be like, but okay.
"You can use this book as a guide.If you see a school that I might like, write it down on the post-it note,"she said to me.
"Yes ma’am,"
"We can narrow it down by state.I prefer the east coast.I like the snow, I like the vibe,"she said as she circled the east coast area with a blue marker
"All these states here are no go," she circled the west coast and mid-west area with a red marker.
"And Georgia is considered...?"
"The south is neutral ground. But I'd prefer the north,"
This was the first time she ever mentioned wanting to go to school on the east coast. I eyed her suspiciously, but she chose to ignore me.
"Oh, and this is a total no go," she picked up a post-it note and wrote the word ‘Emory’ with an X next to it and stuck the post-it note on the map of Georgia.
"No Emory. Got it,"I agreed.
I didn’t want her anywhere near that SOB ex boyfriend of hers.
"So tell me, what are some good schools in New Jersey?" she said suddenly, piquing my interest.
"You wanna go to school in New Jersey?"
"Maybe,"she shrugged.
"It’s on the east coast.Location- wise it's still in the running,"
"Princeton is a great school,"
"And way out of my league,"
"Nothing is out of your league.But Rutgers is also good.And New York's nearby,"
"New York, huh?"
"And Philly too.There’s U Penn, Carnegie Mellon, Villanova, Penn State,"
"Whoa, slow down, I have to write these down,"
"Why are you picking a school based on location? Aren't you supposed to pick one based on its merit? Or if it has the major you wanted," I narrowed my eyes at her.
"That's the thing, I don’t know what I want to major in,"
"So liberal arts?"
"Liberal arts, definitely," she paused for a moment before continuing, "And the location thing… it's because I don’t wanna be too far from where you are,"
"Emma," I scolded, "You're never gonna be too far from where I am,"
