Moses and David were back in Nigeria, they shared the profits into equal halves and they both went home to their families. Moses had fell in love with Azeezat, they saw each other every forth night, and shared blissful moments together. Few months later, Moses applied to study physiology at the Lagos State University, Ojo, Lagos. One day, while in the process of his admission, he sat down to reflect on his life. He smiled when he thought of his accomplishment as a young entrepreneur, the smile was still there when he thought of his family and friends relationship. He sighed when he thought about his education, and he shook his head in despair when he thought about his love-life. He couldn't point at the reason why he was desperately searching for a girlfriend. And at 19 he has dated four ladies in the space of three years. He felt awful. He brought out a pen and his journal. He scribbled down long term and short term goals for himself, he named it "my top priorities" The first five things on the list are;
* Become closer to God.
* Help my family.
* Focus more on my career.
* Elevate my business.
* Balance my love-life.
Moses knew deep down that he was already going astray, his lack of emotional intelligence was a big issue but rather than destroy his whole life because of it, he was ready to focus more on other aspects.
Moses got a mail days later, he had been offered admission to study physiology, a course related to his dream course medicine. Moses was over joyed. He was a step closer to achieving success in his career. On getting to campus, Azeezat called his line severally but Moses wasn't in the mood to speak to her. Once her calls and text began pouring in minutes later, moses blocked her contact straight away just like he did to Lateefat.
Lateefat had missed Moses so much, she never stopped missing him. She has gotten a new phone and she tried reaching moses severally but all her efforts was in vain. She heard he had been given admission and she was very happy for him. She remained hopeful to her lover, not knowing that he had already betrayed her. Azeezat on the other hand had similar hopes, little did the they know that tge eagle has soar higher into the sky.

Moses began a new chapter in his life. A university at last! He exclaimed. He was a step closer to his ultimate goal of becoming a medical doctor. Moses father, a solider in the Nigerian Army was now preparing to retire from active service. As compared to when moses was at the Polytechnic, thus time around everything was going smoothly at home and in school. Moses was in the same school with his older brother. His brother was a level ahead of him, and they both shared the same hostel. Moses continued his verification process for fresher, a name given to new students in a tertiary institution. Moses saw a familiar face while he was doing his verification at the school's sports center. He couldn't remember where he had seen the fair lady with curly hair. She noticed he was staring, then she said hi. Moses responded. The lady was a bit nervous, and sweaty. Moses took he files so as to relief her. She said thank you in the most polite manner as her smile and beauty captivated him.
If at all love at first sight truly existed, then this was it. Moses already fell in love with the lady he has just met. He could feel it, he knew they would become very close friends but he quickly cleared his head as he tries to respond to her questions about the verification process. They both completed their sport verification, they exchanged contacts and he told her what to do next for her verification, she said her name was Elizabeth as they both walked towards the school lawn. Later that day, Moses called to ask if she had completed her verification, he guessed right. She has not done much, then he put her through once again, and they both exchanged pleasantries. Moses and his new friend got along really well.
Some weeks later, lecturers were pouring in and most student on campus got chocked. Moses and Elizabeth spoke via phone, they were yet to see each other since their verification day. Elizabeth studies languages just like Moses's older brother. One sunny afternoon, Moses and his colleague were in a hurry to the physics lab for practical, he walked passed Elizabeth, took a few steps back and they both talked for a while. She spoke about her accommodation problem, and Moses in his kindness gave her his agent contact so as to make inquiry. He then hurried to join his colleagues as his waved her goodbye.
