Amanfoo's True Stories
Aisha the Indian Girl
By Stanley K.A.M. Yeboah, G'berg '88

The weather was unusually cold for mid-autumn, The radiators in the
lecture theatre constantly and sensationally malfunctional,
consistent enough and on a par with my cerebral cortex misgivings, a
normal manifestation at first lectures, my mind and spirit crying for
an overhaul. Anyway, It was the first class in General Relativity, and
the slip for my reading list was lurking somewhere under my pile of
books from the previous term. As you can imagine I wasn't exactly
embracing the new term with open arms. She sat next to me, Aisha, she
chuckled. I am Stan, her eyes was unconventionally hazy for an indian
girl, so do you have the prerequisite stan, she asked by sliding her
bottom towards me on the wooden chair. Oh yeah, I took Special
Relativity last term, right, so you can help me then? her eyes
rolled. Boy my heart was fast pacing like I was on the track with
Michael Johnson on the home run. Since it was only the two of us
occupying the back row, I was particularly apprehensive. The lecturer
was Prof. Novak, a self-concious semi- retired egalitarian Romanian
microcosm of the intellectual Oxford, so you could imagine how seduced
he was by his scientific hypothesis to even bother to be the class
watchtover. I felt a cold hand touching my Zipper, hey chill ! I was
about to yell, but then I thought may be she's from the gods "go with
the flow" I pushed myself. I felt her hand digging deeper and
deeper...at that time I was having double vision paying pseudo
attention to professor Novak like Dante. What really was shocking was
her unreluctance to stop even when the lecturer caught glimpses, she
thrives living dangerously. she uttered to me someday after this
session occured. At the end of the lecture which I still to these days
wonder what the content was, and maybe I wouldn't have sanked my grade
if I'd paid attention. The 'session' carriied on to the dorms straight
after unit AP223, but I think guys what will shock you to know is that
Prof Novak was indeed Aisha's
dad, and that summarily explained her gipsy looks and socially and
politically tolerant views which later became very apparent to me.
She went on further to invite me to a family dinner, where she
attempted to perform the same act on me...BUT, you know what they say
in the akan proverb 'once bitten, forever.... The moral here is for all
you still in academic enclaves to peel your eyes widly to envisage
any eventualities in the lecture room, because guys you never know who
you might open your 'anatomical doors' to. Take care guys...I'll be
back soon with some more real stories.
