*September 2023 - Portland State University*

Arthur was coming out of the dorm houses when he was looking at the map directions to see what letter for the next class section he tried to look for it until a person asked where is the letter C. He can see the girl, Josette walking around the campus when she is on the way to the classroom before he walks over to her.

Arthur: Excuse me?

Josette: *looks at him*

Arthur: I was looking for the Business Economics from Letter C.

Josette: Come with me. I'm going to the class in the same letter.

Arthur: *follows Josette*

Josette: So, I was wondering if you're new here.

Arthur: Sure I am. I just moved here two years ago.

Josette: Good from you. Where are you from? You talking like a professional.

Arthur: San Francisco, California.

Josette: Alright that's a bet. I've had a good experience in Oregon the way I got here for the first day, it was good. Nothing bad as always.

Arthur: *goes inside the building with her* I can find the rest of them to make sure the room is right.

Josette: OK, take your time.

Arthur: Hey, what's your name?

Josette: Josette. Everybody calls me, "Jo".

Arthur: OK. Mine is Arthur.

Josette: Have a good day. *walks away*

Arthur: *hearing*

Arthur arrived at the major class with Business Economics when he had already started days, he hadn't introduced the students yet because so many people were in the same class. Whenever it comes to his goal when he has to earn it to a whole new level. Business Economics professor, Lissa Rodriguez taught different ways for the economy since Arthur was already ready for it because he knows everything about economics.

After the class, Tony gets off the tram to go for a walk for a while to get some fresh air on his own when he makes himself cool.

He went to the coffee shop to get some fresh coffee, a woman named August who works in this place when she is making a cup of coffee when she got splashed by accidentally.

August: Shit! *getting paper towels*

Tony: *standing the line*

August: Just give me a second. I'll be right up. *looks at them*

Elgin: *standing right in front of Tony* She knows how she is doing.

Tony: I know. I've been wondering if she is already starting work here.

Elgin: First monthly payment for a great thing with all this bullshit for every two to three weeks with a little closure same as payment.

Tony: How?

Elgin: I just had one job in the restaurant because it's gonna cost $200 a little bit more with all do is same each month.

Tony: Because that's what the jobs do. If you ever doing double shifts? They can pay you a lot.

Elgin: Not exactly. If I wanna do that shit-

August: Next!

Elgin: I really wanna do it, I'm not sure.

Tony: *hearing and goes to August before paying for fresh coffee*

August: Did you go to college?

Tony: My freshman. I'll do whatever it takes for a fresh start.

August: This city in the university is way too good but I already graduated earlier this year.

Tony: Really?

August: Really? Here you go. *gives him the money*

Tony: I appreciate it. Hey, what time do you get off?

August: I'm getting off at 8:30. Why not?

Tony: It seems like you were pretty cool yourselves when you earned it and I was like, maybe we can hang out when you free?

August: I'm not sure because I have a lot of things in my stuff. I certainly don't know you, but a good reason we met each other right now and I was concerned that I'd let you know. Maybe next week.

Tony: For sure. *walking away and grabs the coffee*

Later that night, Arthur was lying on the bed whenever he felt like he was turning into a flashback about missing his friends and family including Mia. However, he took over a whole town for the next few years.

*flashback*

Mia: I won't lose you very soon.

Arthur: I'll call you. Wait a second, we still call each other but I know you've been busy with your project and talking to more friends in the dorm.

Mia: I think you're correct.

Arthur: I still love you.

Mia: Same. *smiles and kisses him*

Arthur: *kisses her back*

*flashback ends*

Arthur grabs the diary book when he is turning pages to look for a diary letter for Mia when he finds the right one he starts to read it.

Arthur: *reading his notebook* "Dear diary, ever since I fell in love with the girl from high school. He has dark hair and is cute and her sexy eyebrow that she got when she deserved to get the scholarship anytime soon. Once she has a National Honor Society, she celebrates with her family for one dinner, she teaches fashion design. Her name is Mia Clarke, and she has a dog named Trufita, who is super cute, but not as cute as Mia. Oh fucking Mia ❤️‍🔥"

He smiled at the notebook when he was reacting himself and turned to the next page to start writing another diary.

The next day, Tony and Carter arrived at the lake behind the trail after they got off the tram when they finished the class on another day. When Carter asked him to go to the lake with him. They were looking at each person jogging on the trail while walking near the water and sitting on the rock together.

Tony: I would be stuck in this place for numerous years. Maybe I should get to know about this city besides my parents. They can do things on their own at some point. Besides, what the fuck am I supposed to do with all this type of shit? Maybe I should get the tuition for many good reasons.

Carter: Tony, you can get the money after the winter semester ends or even a full semester. They can get cash for the paycheck. I'm just counting on myself.

Tony: Well, you should be.

Carter: I know, man.

Tony: *picks up the rock and throws the water*

Carter: OK, I like it. I tell one of my friends to just get some sleep when my friend gives me a hard time for being tired or bored. I'm swearing as hell, Tony. I swear to god.

Tony: *hearing*

Later, Tony and Carter go to the coffee shop to get some coffee Tony sees Arthur in the building when he walks over to him.

Arthur: Tony, what's going on?

Tony: I'm just getting coffee.

Arthur: Well, brilliant. Just brilliant.

Tony: *looks at the employees and it doesn't see August*

Arthur: What are you looking at?

Tony: I just looking to see what they making a coffee.

Arthur: Well, why don't you work in there? Instead, you already making a good coffee.

Tony: Arthur, this is Carter. Carter, this is Arthur. Me and Arthur are in high school together. Like as always.

Carter: *nods* Sweet.

Arthur: What's good, Carter?

Carter: You look flexible. Both of you but I can honestly say, we can help each other as long as you guys feel free in the library. I was used to going there after class.

Arthur: Maybe, as long as I can take whenever it is my assignment is too good enough.

Tony: *hearing someone and sees her classmate, Gianna*

Three boys, Kaiser, Daryle, and Elvis insult Gianna, one of the boys grabs her arm until Tony comes outside when he tries to break them up.

Tony: Back the fuck up! *pushed them*

Daryle: What's up, did you push me, bitch?

Arthur: No, he wasn't pushing you harder. He saw one of you idiots grab her arm. This shit ain't cool.

Elvis: None of your fucking business, dude.

Arthur: You should think mind your own. We're going to school here.

Kaiser: Well, my bad.

Tony: Are you OK? *helped Gianna up*

Gianna: Yeah, I'm fine.

Tony: Come on, let's go inside.

Carter: We're good for now. These three look homophobic. *walks back to the coffee shop with them*

Arthur: *moves back a bit while trying to walk back inside*

Elvis: You stay the hell away from us as soon as possible, OK? *grabs him and pushes him*

Arthur: Don't touch me! *pushed him back*

Daryle: HEY!

Arthur: *punches Elvis in the face*

Tony: *runs over to Arthur* Knock it off, cool it.

Kaiser: Huh? What now, huh? *pushed Arthur*

Tony: *punches Kaiser in the face*

Kaiser: *pulls him up and slammed to the ground*

Tony: *grunts*

Arthur: *holds Tony and punches his stomach three times*

Daryle: *grabs Arthur*

Arthur: *hits his head*

Daryle: *falls to the ground*

Kaiser: *punches Tony in the face*

Tony: *still on the ground*

Arthur: *pulled Kaiser away harder*

Employee: You better get the hell outta here before the cops to get one of y'all. *comes outside and goes back inside*

Arthur: *grabs Tony up* Damn, you beat the breaks out of him close.

Tony: Better enough close.

Carter: It's cool, sir. We just saved her. *looks at Employee*

Later that night, Elgin and Lyla played solitaire cards in the living room on the table while they were sat on the floor. The two of them have been in the couple relationship for five years and they have a job not the same but at least, one of them has a job is when Elgin works in a restaurant and Lyla works in the shopping mall. Two friends, Keri and Willard invited to the house to the same to play cards together.

Willard: As of now, who winning?

Elgin: That could be me. I beat all of you guys three times.

Willard: Well, you're gonna get dealt with when you go to the casino for one night and bring the chip home with you.

Elgin: Fascinating.

Lyla: See, that's how he wants to win for streaks. This game makes me feel like an asshole.

Elgin: Babe, come on. It's just a game.

Lyla: Well...

Elgin: None of it matters. It just gives a simple when we playing this game.

Keri: Have you guys taken a break from talking and playing another one already?

Elgin: Yeah we do.

*At the nightclub*

Kaiser, Daryle, and Elvis are having a good time in the club when they are watching the strippers while one of the boys is drinking up. Meanwhile, Art & Design professor, Simon Fleming arrived at the nightclub and he's enjoyed himself for the night he is not staying much longer because he has a business to take care of the classes by tomorrow morning. However, he is walking around the club when he sees Vera, she is also a professor when she teaches writing class.

Simon: Hello missy.

Vera: *turns around and sees him* Simon? What are you doing out here?

Simon: I just came here and going through something in the club tonight. Getting some drink I just don't feel like getting drunk.

Vera: Good for you but I won't get drunk as usual.

Simon: Can you believe is everyone having a good time tonight?

Vera: It is. But, I brought my friends to the club for one night.

Simon: Why don't you guys go ahead and have fun? I'm just getting a drink and chill for a moment.

Vera: Be careful when you walk around at the club.

Simon: *gives her a thumb and walks away*

Daryle: Kaiser, Elvis, let's go out in the back so that I can get the bags out of my car.

Elvis: For sure. *stands up with them and follows them when he walks outside until he pulls out the gun for a surprise*
