Journalism student Layla el Faouly meets physics major Marc by accident, really.
"Well, actually, I'm double majoring in physics and literature. And I'm pretty sure you were stalking me."
"Don't lie, Spector. You were stalking me cause-"
"No I wasn't!"
"You couldn't resist my beauty and-"
"I knew I never should've complimented you."
"My charm and my seductive gaze-"
"Seductive gaze?! You're on crack. You're actually on cra-"
"And the rhythm of my voice-"
"I beg of you, baby, please stop."
[ft. mechanic Jake and literature student Steven]
He's lonely in college. Which isn't a surprise because he's lonely everywhere except in his own head.
He sees her for the first time, by chance, while leaving Steven's class in foundations of language.
"Who is she?", he's taking longer than necessary to gather up the books Steven brought to class he'll never understand why he doesn't just go digital
"Who is who?" Marc takes a look at her again as answer. She is literally glowing by the window if he wasn't so dumbstruck by her beauty he'd remember it's probably the sunlight refracting
"Oh her." Steven's smugness is so obvious, but for what, Marc doesn't know, "Layla. I told you about her. The cute one."
"Irrelevant, Steven. You find everyone cute."
Once he sees her, he sees her everywhere.
She's at the café he goes to, she's at the library. On his way to his classes. Everywhere.
He watches her take out books from the library, he watches her buy pastries, he watches her tie her hair up when it gets too hot, he watches her-
He watches her a lot.
He wants to talk to her, he really does. It's just that every time he stands to talk, he gets too flustered and anxious, and sits back down.
"Marc, this is just ridiculous."
Steven can moan and whine as much as he wants but there is no way Marc is going to embarrass himself. Marc knows his own value "you really don't. That is literally 50% of your therapy." and he knows there is no way he is on the same as Layla.
So he resigns to just watching her.
And maybe going the same café everyday.
And maybe the literature section of the library more often.
And maybe the garden-
........
Steven's right. This is getting ridiculous.
