Chapter 142
Sophia glanced at her phone and saw a call from her college mentor, Zachary.
Raising an eyebrow in confusion, she picked up the call.
It turned out that Zachary was hitting her up for a meal.
He was in town for a scholarly conference and knew she was still around, so he wanted to catch up over some grub.
Sophia was kinda taken aback.
Zachary had been her uni mentor.
Back in her freshman year, she’d snagged an award at the Architectural Design Competition and caught Zachary’s eye. He’d taken her under his wing ever since.
During those years, it was Zachary leading her through projects, from group gigs without any credit to solo designs where her name could shine. His mentorship paved the way for where she was today.
So, for her old college mentor, Sophia had nothing but respect, gratitude, and admiration.
When she nailed her grad school acceptance here, she’d buzzed Zachary with the good news first thing.
Life, work, and studies had gotten in the way, and while they hadn’t worked together in a while, they stayed in touch. But since she hadn’t managed to go back home, she hadn’t had the chance to visit him in person.
Now with Zachary swinging by for a conference, Sophia was both surprised and stoked.
She was down for the dinner date.
Zachary had set it up for the evening at a joint near the campus.
