FAMILIAR STRANGER

The sun ray gently brushed over his skin with great warmth making him notice it and blink. His mum slid the curtains aside in order to wake him up.

"Get up now or else ur gonna get late again " his mum said.

"Just a bit more mum" he whined in his sleep.

"No more sleeping, it's 7 am already didn't u said u had an important presentation today" his mum replied.

"Shoot" as he got up and dragged his ass towards the bathroom half-heartedly.

Dylan Krussels was a 20 year old student in AXOLFIN UNIVERSITY studying fine arts... he was good enough to charm any woman he wanted with his slightly taller frame, green eyes that looked majestic when they reflect light and shine bright like emerald, muscles that ppl would drool over, messy brown hair and he was definitely blessed with imagination and sculpting....

He was excellent at sculpting and every time he did, his hand moved over the sculptures as if it were a piece of cake. His ideas flowed from his mind to his hands which everyone envied.

But with all these traits he hated to get along with others, his personal space was everything where he could do whatever he wanted to without any interruptions.

He was running in the corridor looking at time and cursing himself over being late again just when he saw something strange. Why was everyone standing in the corridor gathering a crowd and looking in the same direction. Curiosity consumed him as he made his way towards the crowd and somehow managed to look at what they were looking for.

It was....it was a boy? Why was everyone standing only to look at some boy in our university.

"What in the freaking hell is happening here?" he asked his one and only friend Noah Archer.

"Ig u got a competition finally."

"What do u mean?" confused Dylan asked.

"U can see how everyone is looking at him as if he's some kinda piece of art, well he does look good and also the rumors says that he's a new scholar in our university with straight A's, excellent academics and sports, he got some good genes.......oh also he was chosen to represent his high school at international level and was even rewarded with the highest honors by Mr. President himself." he said looking back at his friend who seemed lost.

" Dylan...Dylan?"

Dylan got back into his senses as soon as he heard his name "yup?"

"You good? What's on ur mind,u seemed lost in ur thoughts "

"Oh it's just....leave it" He definitely seemed intrigued by something

"C'mon buddy just tell me I'm all ears."

"It's just that he seems oddly familiar, it's like I know him but how, I can't remember that " his eyebrows furrowed trying to make a sense out of it but failing

"Oddly familiar?....you're thinking too much silly, just leave it"

"Maybe you're right, fine then let's go to class."

They both made their way towards the classroom as they settled themselves on their seats sitting beside each other. Everything was just the same as every day except Dylan was lost...lost in his thoughts, his mind consumed with those thoughts but at the end of the day he let go of those feelings and started to work on his new masterpiece since the date for the exhibition was near.
