Liz stood from the bench, on her way back to the hostel, suddenly one of the two girls standing beside a car, packed by one of the professors threw a bottle at her, Liz was frustrated and yelled at them the two girls walked to her and one of the girls stand behind her using the bottle on her hand to hit her head, Liz turn to her and gave her a hot slap, the other one was angry she was about to return the slap and a lady walk there and stop them

" O it was you Natasha...you are jay girlfriend ":the girl standing behind Liz asked and Natasha nodded
" Let go," the girl standing behind Liz said and they left, Natasha walked to her and used her handkerchief to clean the wound on her forehead and gave her the handkerchief
" Sorry... that's how they are on campus and I hope they won't bully you again " Natasha apologised to her
" You can call me Natasha " she introduced herself and left with her two friends, Liz was just staring at her and she was completely lost in thought because Natasha was like an angel she was beautiful, she had a slender eyebrow a glossy skin, her eyes lashes were velvety with a molten- red hair.
