Sandra focuses on her international world she prefers focusing on her thoughts and feelings rather than the external world. She mostly finds her comfort in solitude, and enjoy deep conversations only with few family and friends.
And since she came to my school she hardly talks to anyone buh spends most of her time reading her book.
Some of our course mate nick named her "library rat"cause shes always sported at the library (and we all know that only serious students are found there)

I watched her closely and found out that she was just different from any other person ive ever met,she was kind to people and considerate to buh always shys away when ever interesting or personal topics are being brought up,she wasn't loud (unlike most of our room mate) she always got an A and her grades was never suffering unlike me, i thought to myself "I needed a friend like her"

I finally gathered all the courage in the world and approached her at the library (she reminded me alot about myself,shes just like me the only difference was i heated math and didn't get good grades in school) i started with a hi and she gave me a bombastic side eye (i really hate it when people dnt respond positively, thats why i prefer staying alone and being quiet) then she now gave me a warm smile and asked me to sit next to her, i was really surprised though buh i did, she was very open minded and we seem to get along so well(never judge a book by its cover)
As time went on our school now had "two library rats" instead of one,

Sandra helped me alot in many ways 
My grades became better and i was also noted as one of best student in school along side Sandra who turned out to be my best friend now, our conversation started getting more serious and lively to the extent we shared many experiences about our families, and to my surprise Sandra turned out to be cousin sister from my mothers side,

No wonder i felt that connection with her right from the start, mom called me and said shes been hearing a lot of positive things about me from my lectures and other people from school to,she asked the secret and i told her about Sandra and how i found out she was related to me, and how we both felt a connection right from the start mom just said "indeed blood is thicker than water" she said she will inform Sandras dad (her sinor brother) that Sandra will be coming to our place for holidays after our second semester, i was really excited about the news and immediately told Sandra about it, and 3 weeks before the semester was over we already started parking our bags as we were very exited to spend more time together with family and friends.
