My Sophomore year in college started very dismal. I had moved into my own apartment and missed the chaos of the freshman dorm. The friend that was to be my room mate had a family crisis and she wouldn?t be returning to school this year. I was alone and had scheduled more than I could handle especially in the math department. I admit, I am math dumb but in order to get my degree I had to do it and I figured the sooner the better.
Outside the calculus room a bulletin board held several numbers of math tutors. I took a number at random and called Eric that night. Eric was the what you?d expect a math wiz to be. Geeky. He was good looking under the glasses, polo shirt, and Saturdays hair cut. We were both shy at first and I was sure that he was attracted to me. To be honest I was attracted to him too. He was honest and real he wasn?t ashamed of himself nor did he try to present himself as anything but who he was. I had already grown tired of the frat boy mentality that plagued the campus. Most of them have nothing to say to you except for tired pick up lines around a keg or sporting event.
The first few weeks were strictly business although I caught Eric staring at me and occasionally his hand would graze mine in awkward attempts. Twice a week I showed up at his door for tutoring and until the third week math was the topic of conversation. The fourth week Eric and I didn?t talk about math. I knocked on his door and he opened it without saying hello or his usual shy smile, something was wrong. He explained that he meant to call and cancel our session but had spaced it out. I asked what was wrong, he shrugged and said it was a long story. He flopped on the couch and I went into the small kitchen to make coffee.
?I can?t tutor you today Lora.? Eric mumbled.
?I?m just fixing coffee. You look like you need it. Did you even go to class today? ? I said clicking the brew button.
?No, porno hikayeleri (http://magahikaye.com) I just want to be alone.? Eric responded. I poured two cups and sat next to Eric curling my arm around his hunched shoulders. I noticed that the pictures of his girlfriend were now missing from the walls and his desk.
?She bailed on you, huh?? I said squeezing my arm tighter.
?How?d you know? Eric mumbled.
?I?m math dumb not dumb.? I replied.
Eric smiled and said ?No, you?re not dumb at all? His eyes filled with tears.
?Leaving you here to sulk and throw a pity party alone would be dumb. I?m a pro at pity parties. The Martha Stewart of pity parties.? I said smiling.
?No guy in their right mind dumps a woman like you Lora. Have you ever been dumped?? Eric groaned. ?Thanks for the compliment but what you see before you is a frequently dumped woman. It sucks and it always hurts like hell but you move on and learn from it. ?
I said taking a sip of coffee. ?She was sleeping with some other guy at Texas A
