Back at the dorm, with thoughts of boxing, possibly to do with Brendan. This will be Wilfred’s last stint at university.

On Thursday he had his O’Connor class with Justin Cronk as his professor. Wilfred had a question, “How can we research our Romance novels without getting ourselves into hot water?”
“Hot water” Sophie laughed.
“None of us have a life to know what you’re talking about Wilfred, there’s no need to rub it in” Justin told him. “Watch the Romantic Rendezvous channel on TV, or eat some cinnamon” Waverly Chen suggested, annoyed.
Wilfred was amazed he got answered at all, must be because his level 10 Charisma made him friends with his professor.
Flute music played and a pretty lady told Wilfred telepathically that she fancied him.
The recurring maid service he hired for the dorm. He was sick of either doing everyone else’s cleaning or having to ask them to. “That’ll be $125” she said a little later.
Wilfred had saved good money with his novels, he could afford this and it was worth the time it will save. His last week ever at university needed to be a good one ..
Just when he’s saved himself some time on one hand, something else came along to suck a chunk of it out of him..
And suck him up into the sky!
Wilfred was disgusted and angered by it. Luckily pregnancies aren’t possible at university, male or female.
As she rode away on a bicycle, Wilfred vowed never to speak of it.

Wilfred had a full performance, max Journalist skill-set, including Photography now, and about 20K book royalties due when he gets back to ‘Sunlit. He finally had time to accept a party invitation, from Ashley Corono, the evil level 10 Jock.
When he got through the gate of her fraternity dorm, he changed into the party’s dress code – swimwear.
His old fashioned green togs made him feel rather exposed. Especially when he saw that Ashley was not. The other guests didn’t approve of that.
He gave her some precious pink flowers to help her feel better.
“For the hostess” he said. “Oh! Pink!” she squealed. It didn’t cause a heart. The other girls looked on in envy.
He introduced himself to Cheri Chigote, a level 5 Jock.
He gave her some pink flowers, “Would you like some too?” he offered. “Yes please!” she sighed. It didn’t cause a heart, but it did gain him a Jock level.
He introduced himself to Tammy Parker, a level 6 Jock, paid her a flirty compliment, and gave her some flowers too.
He did the school cheer with her, and took a picture.
Anoki Moon, not a girl level 10 Jock appeared, hopefully not the boyfriend of one of the girls Wilfred gave flowers to. “Anoki dear chap, care to be in a picture?” asked Wilfred.
“Always up for a pic Bro” he agreed.
“I shall always cherish my days here with everyone” Wilfred admired his collection.
