Arrival

Heck

Ciara arrived at the orientation center sooner than she expected. She entered the large hall, and the view amazed her.

The hall was incomparably larger and more exquisite compared to where she did her exams. There were countless number of chairs which span across the whole hall, leaving the stage at the bottom empty, with a pulpit and lights. The rest of the hall was brightly lit, and the students there were chattering among themselves. The cliques and groups were evident and were engaging in interesting conversations.

Ciara was relieved that she was not late, but it was barely. Just one more minute to go! The way she rushed into the hall, and how she panted and gasped for air gathered lots of attention, as most of the students who had been talking stopped their discussions and looked at her.
