Chapter 4: The Dorms
"Here we are Alex," Mrs. Jones said as the taxi pulled up to the school.
It was very nice, and it was also very large. The whole theme was modern, sleek, and sophisticated.
"Thank you," Mrs. Jones said as she handed the driver some money and grabbed the bags out of the back.
Alex ran over to help her as a man opened the doors of the school.
"Mr. Davenport?" the man said as he walked over to Alex.
"Yes," Alex said remembering his identity given to him on the flight by Mrs. Jones.
"And this must be Sophie your housekeeper?" the man implied as he extended his hand to Alex's and firmly shook it and glance over at Mrs. Jones.
"Yes sir," Alex said as he took his things in his hands.
"Please if you would follow me and I will show you to your dorm," the man said as he helped Alex with his things and lead him down the sidewalk and into an air-conditioned building. "I am terribly sorry that we don't have separate buildings for the girls and boys but there's not enough students to where we need the extra room so we just have one dorm building."
Alex and Mrs. Jones followed the man into a room that had a huge king size bed in it and a flat screen, 32 in. TV that was on a table next to the opposing wall.
"This will be your room," the man said as he placed Alex's things down near the bed.
The room also had its own bathroom, laundry room, fireplace, kitchen with miniature like appliances, a huge closet, and an office.
"I'm sorry, you are going to take writing classes right?" the man said as he looked at the expression on Alex's face which was shock.
"Oh yes sir," Alex said as he snapped back to reality realizing that this really was real.
"Ok good then, I was wanting to make sure that I put you in the right room. There are some others that have labs and such for the chemists and very select few have everyone of the rooms because there are those that do take all of the courses that are offered here," the man said as he started off towards the door. "Oh they will be serving dinner soon and I will send one of our best writers in here to help show you around. Sorry there are other duties that I must attend to. Oh and my name is Mr. Lester."
"Thank you," Alex said as the man walked out of the room.
"Well he seem really nice," Mrs. Jones said as she stepped towards the door.
"Yes he does," Alex said as he looked at Mrs. Jones.
"Well have fun Eric," Mrs. Jones said referring to Alex's alter identity as she stepped out the door.
"Bye," Alex said as he plopped down onto the huge bed covered in white bed clothes. He slowly drifted off after a few seconds not knowing really how tired he was until after sleep had crept up on him.
