DEON COMPUTER SCIENCE

It was the third week of January, and I was eagerly waiting for my ID card to arrive. Finally, on Wednesday of that week I got it. As soon as I got it, I went to the university library. As I walked into the library, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of excitement. I had always loved reading, and I was eager to explore the shelves in the library. A few months before I had gone through the university website and I already found out that the library is famous for its 24-hour opening and its books. On the 1st day itself, I had gone through each and every stack to find out the different types of books. During the search for books, I found a staff member. She was very helpful and she told me how to find the books.

I stayed in the library until around 4.30 pm in the evening. As I made my way through the last stacks which contained the computer books, I suddenly saw her. She was the most beautiful girl I have seen in my life. I felt a crush on her and it was suddenly like I was in a heaven of daffodils. Throughout all my life I was an introvert who couldn’t speak to anyone easily, so I had no words to speak to her. As I was browsing the shelves, she approached from the opposite side and headed towards the same section where I was looking for books. It seemed that she too was searching for something to read about computers. Gradually I found a book that’s good for me; it was on the middle shelf and in the middle part of the row. We touched that specific book at the same time. Since it was a coincidence, she laughed and gave me the book. But I said that both of us could read it. She said her name and introduced herself. I, too, introduced myself. Her name was Ann. Her Ideas and curiosity about computers impressed me a lot. Ann helped me a lot. She taught me how to make copies with the ID card and so on. We spent almost an hour inside the library and it was really wonderful with the river view and the flights at the airport. Suddenly she had a call from her friend that she was needed immediately, so she went quickly. For the contact information I had given my WhatsApp number on a paper, but unfortunately, she forgot it on the book that we took for reading. As I found it, I found myself helpless. Whenever I go to the library, that incident comes to my mind. It was a beautiful day.
