Note: I will be using a couple characters from the popular webcomic Twokinds and some anthropomorphic animals since I'm not a creative man when it comes to creating storylines. Other than that, I hope you enjoy this (mostly) original story!
A white wolf, with red hair, walked down the the sidewalk on the University of Chicago campus. She wore simple blue jeans, a brown shirt, and a green jacket with a bag over her shoulder. You can tell she is full of optimism by the way she talks and the hope in her eyes. Ask, and she'll tell you that this is a new chapter in her life. For the rest of her life, she chosen a career to educate people about history, and culture all over the world.
As the wolf's attention was on her first day, she accidently bumped into someone, causing both to drop their stuff. "Oh I'm sorry," She apologized, picking up her own items. "I guess I wasn't watching out for others!"
"No it's okay," The female human said. "Don't worry about-"
She stopped mid-sentence, staring at the new professor for a few seconds. Her expression changed to sudden friendliness, saying, "Oh hi! You must the new professor everyone at the Social Science building was talking about! You're Roselyn, right?"
Roselyn, taken back by the sudden approach, reacted with uncertainty by replying, "Yeah. And you must be?"
"Diana Rodriguez, professor for the Social Science Building. I'm teaching History and Sociology. Nice to meet you!" Diana replied, as she finished picking her up and stuck out her hand.
"Nice to meet you too, Diana." Roselyn responded as she shook Diana's hand.
Doesn't hurt to try and make new friends for once... Roselyn thought to herself, still uncertain what to expect.
"I'm assuming this is your first day being a professor here, right? Let me show you around!" Diana offered with a smile.
Roslyn was still taken back by Diana's abundant friendliness towards her. The reason of her hesitation is her past experience with over-friendly people isn't well enjoyed. Let's say, they either gave off a weird vibe which ended up being clingy, or completely needy people and will do anything for attention. Both of those types caused drama of some kind, and Roselyn wants to forget about that.
However, she noticed how genuine Diana is, attempting to make some new friends in the long run. Sure, Roselyn had some friends from school, but never in a approachable way Diana does. Willing to give her a chance, Roselyn replied back, smiling, "That be nice. I'm very new to this campus so I'm very confused which place is where."
"Great! I can't wait to show you around! You are not going to regret this!" Diana exclaimed with excitement.
"Allow me to show you a tour of the University of Chicago," Diana said with glee. "First off, the Science Building! Both the Science and Social Studies buildings are very similar so I know there is a good chance you might get confused which one is which…"
As Diana gave her a tour, Roselyn sensed more and more of Diana's kindness and wholesome nature. Actually, she is picking a good-person vibe from her. Maybe choosing to work here isn't a bad idea, Roselyn thought to herself. I might like it here. I hope this first year teaching here come to a good start!
