Chapter 3 Introduction

At evening when the classes were over and every one was coming out of their classes, Calista was standing in the lobby of the zoology department waiting for Allegra to come out. When Allegra arrived they both planned to pick Zelda and go to near by restaurant to buy dinner.

Sitting and eating in the restaurant while laughing and giggling was when she remembered about the snake, and told the story of what happened last night to Zelda and Allegra, and then asked Allegra to help her out because she was a student of zoology and know a thing or two about snakes Allegra promised to help and the three paid for the meal and left the restaurant. On way to dormitory the three of them were chatting and teasing each other, they reached Calista room she carefully opened the door and went inside. Calista stood side wise making room for the other two of her friends and carefully turned the study table lamp on. When Calista turned around she saw Allegra and Zelda already standing next to bed and carefully examining the snake. Calista asked Allegra out of curiosity so what you say Allegra all confused said to Calista that it is her first time seeing a snake like this and then Allegra rushed out of the room leaving Calista and Zelda all confuse.

After sometime Allegra came back with the firstly aid box for animals and started redressing the wound of the snake with some antibiotics. After Allegra was done Calista asked Allegra if everything was okay, Allegra said; "its a serious wound but its not fatal" after saying this Allegra wrote a prescription on a page and left to her own room with Zelda. But before leaving Allegra reminded Calista to be careful even though the snake seem to be harmless but they are unware of its kind.

It was 9 p.m. by now Calista looked at the snake for a while confused about her feelings toward it she turned around and went to washroom to take a shower. After taking shower Calista came out to the dressing room took out her plum color night suit, plain, short shirt, flary pant and changed in to it. She stood in front of dressing table dried her hairs, applied her skin care and then came out to the room.

Standing beside the bed side she looked at the snake unaware whither it was okay or not she thought to her self how good would it have been if It could talk and tell us what's wrong. After standing by the bed side for a while Calista finally went across the room to coffee table made her self a coffee and sat on study table to study.

Calista who fell asleep on table while working last night woke up to a hustle going in her room. When she looked back she saw the snake in the bed moving in pain while hissing Calista rushed to the bed, and started patting its back until it was finally asleep. when she looked at the clock beside her table it was just 4 a.m. Calista slowly sild under the blanket in the bed and fell asleep.

After sleeping for the next two hours Calista woke to the movement beside her in the bed, when she looked at the her side her eyes met with the eyes of snake, and unconsciously give a smile smile and sit straight in the bed. Coming out of her bed she straight away went to washroom had a bath, she came out in her bath rob made a breakfast for her self and put some milk in front of the snake the snake quickly started licking and drink the whole bowl, looking at the snake drinking the whole bowl of milk like that Calista thought that it must have been thirsty as snake don't drink milk until they are dehydrated. After having her own breakfast too Calista went to the dressing room and changed into mini light blue frock, made a half bun hairstyle, wearing golden studs and a small pendant, with light blue nick sneakers.

Just when she came out of her dressing room she saw the snake coming down from the bed afraid of going any closer Calista talked to the snake from far away that "don't come out of the bed you are hurt" the snake turned around and looked at Calista in her eyes and hissed, Calista took a step back and watched the snake going down the window and disappear out of the sight. After watching the snake leave did Calista finally took a deep breath and sat on the floor for a while.

It was Friday so after taking the classes all the three girls Calista, Zelda and Allegra went out to a club in the city and had fun eating, drinking and dancing. Coming out of the club it was already 11 p.m. On their way back to university they felt like they were being followed when they looked back they saw a group of boys following them just when they were about to take run that they were stop by few of them from the front taking a step back Calista asked them with serious tone," what do you want" one of them laughed and said casually, "nothing just fun". By the over all look of the scene it was clear that they wanted more than just fun, all the three of them looked at each other, just at the vary moment one of the men grabbed Calista from the hand and two more grabbed Zelda and Allegra. The men holding Calista playfully touched Calista face and said; ahh pretty, Calista made a disgusted expression and showed off his hand, the men got annoyed and was about throw Calista on the ground that he him self fell on the ground holding his crotch in pain and cursing loud. The men by looking at the fellow lying on ground marched towards Calista and stared fighting, after like for fighting about ten minutes was when reinforcement arrived seeing so many men coming they had no choice but to take a run.

After running for an hour and a small fight here and their did they finally managed to reach university, it was past mid night so the doors of dormitory were closed and they had to climb up the wall and enter to the corridor through window it was the second floor with each room having four peoples in one room. Just when they were about to go upstairs to A grader floor that they hard Greta on Phone talking to someone in the lobby, "you useless brat, waste of money this is the second time you are missing her get lost and never contact me back again." hanging up the phone Greta started cursing, "are these bitches even girls or not how could they beat so many men all at once". Calista, Zelda and Allegra all the three of them were standing with the side wall of the stair case and just when Greta arrived and saw all the three of them smiling at her she took a step back and started sweating.

Zelda; with a smile on her face, "three bitches"

Calista; making surprise expression "are they even girls"

Allegra; mockingly "I think she confused you two with me and me with men"

Calista; jokingly oh "now that make sense"

When Calista entered her room she was soo tried that she slammed on the bed and smile after thinking that it was weekend tomorrow. When she turned to her right in the bed she saw the same green snake siting on the balcony fins, she walked toward the window and opened it, while smiling at the snake she politely ask "are you okay now" Calista mesmerizing smile was one of her best charm, the snake couldn't help but hiss. Calista again looked at the snake with smile and said "hello I'm Calista, would you like to come in" making some room for the snake to walk in Calista looked at the snake making its way to room and went straight and climbed up the bed. Calista jokingly went near the snake a smiled: "hmm seems like Mr. Snake only come here to sleep, don't you have your own room." the snake just looked away and curled its self and went to sleep.
