Random Pregnancies In Campus.

Campus would be a complete joke without extracurricular activities. And for obvious reasons, meetings cannot be held during the day on weekdays. Most are held a few hours to sunset for convenience sake.

I'm still wondering why I'm only making this observation now.

After a club's meeting, at 7:47pm the members find themselves groping through the darkness trying to make their way to their various hostel rooms. She is in a rush knowing she still has to buy ingredients for her supper. An acquaintance and  co-member from the club offers to escort her to her room in Hostel L.
We, the comrades, are one after all, aren't we?
When they finally get to her room after a disturbingly awkward small talk, she mustn't dare let him leave without a simple meal at least. What would he think of her if she did? Oh the horrific thought!! So she decides to make her special ugali omena just so she will only have to worry about praises, not ridicule.
Luckily, the young bloke happens to have a laptop with him so they listen to music as she prepares the thanksgiving meal saving the movie for mealtime.
An hour later, they are both too hooked to The Last Witch Hunter, the guy promises to be on his way as soon as it's over. By 10pm, the girl is already feeling sleepy so she insists that they pause the movie and continue some other day. The lad persists that the laptop belongs to his roommate so he can't be sure when the next he will have it will be.
Slightly convinced, they proceed. Once that movie has ended, the guy suggests that she checks out the collection of series as they play some music just before he sets off to his own room in hostel F. For politeness sake and her reputation not to come off as trippy and too tense, she succumbs.
Before they know it, it's midnight. She escorts him downstairs but then they spot the Janitor making rounds on one end and the "Gate Keepers" alert as ever on those entrance benches.
There's only one solution to that issue. He has to spend the night and crawl back to his room at dawn. She curses under her breath, too quiet for him to hear. He smirks in the dark corridor back to her room as they both contemplate their situation.
He is in great luck because her roommate has still not returned to the room meaning she will be spending the night at her best friends' place.
Despite the girl's persistence that he sleeps her roommate's bed, they scheming lad feigns offense promising he won't as much as face her. So they go to sleep on her bed. Finally.
In the wee hours of the night, she feels his arms wrap around her. Soon, he is caressing her.
In the morning, the events of the night cannot be spoken of ever again. He dresses up and leaves promising to check up on her later. She hurriedly gets ready for class. Later in the day, she'll visit the chemist.
Two days later, she sets her mind to actually skip lunch since she has been too busy with her core courses and electives to make her way to the chemist. On her way, she bumps into a lecturer she has been trying to hunt down for months about her missing mark. She can't let him get away. The agenda she had in mind has to be postponed again. Before she knows it, it's been a week.
And she knows she has 1 major problem to add to her 99 others.
