Madison coughed as he walked down the hallway looking for his dorm number he was trying to not get lost which beside getting sick was his best talent. He hated that he was like that but he was and he couldn't change it so who cares right? Well he did, he was always looking for a way to fix that and he only made it worse. He found his dorm and walked into it to see a man holding a turtle. He laughed at the sight. The man turned around.
"Hello, you must be my roommate? I'm John it's nice to meet you."
"Hi john yes I'm your roommate I'm James. Nice to meet you as well."
"Well, welcome, you are a law student right?"
"How..... did you ..."
"The way you carry yourself, the way you speak. And I your shirt says I'm a law major."
James looked down and laughed
"Oh right, so what's your major?"
"I'm law too actually."
"Oh really? What's your first class?"
"Mock court at 11 I don't have any classes before then."
"I am the same way."
They spent that night talking and getting to know each other.
John came home from class a few weeks later in tears.
"John, what's wrong?"
"It's not important."
"John, I know your stuffed animal from third grades favorite color you can't lie to me."
"I'm losing my scholarship I have to leave. I can't pay for it."
"John, can I help in anyway?"
"No you can't do anything."
"At least let me tell you one thing. John I like you, like really like you, I hope you still keep in contact with me."
"Of course I will."
"Thank you have a good year."
"I will I'll be back when I get some more money."
"I hope."
