CHARLOTTE
Hi, Sorry to bother you but do you know where the library is? It’s my first year here and I’m a little bit lost.

SAM
It’s alright don’t worry about it. It happens to everyone at first.
(HE POINTS IN THE DIRECTION OF THE LIBRARY)
From here you just have to walk straight up there and it’s the building furthest to the right, directly opposite the main building. Once you get there, go up the stairs and it’s on the first floor, it’s the first door on the right.

CHARLOTTE
Thank you.

SAM
No worries. I’d walk with you and show you where it is myself but I have a lesson now. But if we bump into each other again, make sure to tell me if you had any more trouble finding it?

CHARLOTTE
I will do, thanks again.

Hey, did you find your way alright?

CHARLOTTE
Yeah, thanks to you.

SAM
Happy to help. I’m Sam by the way. I’d have introduced myself before if I didn’t have to go to class.

CHARLOTTE
Don’t worry about it, I’m Charlotte. I take it this isn’t your first year given you know where you’re going?


SAM
Yeah, this is my second. So, what are you studying?

CHARLOTTE
Music, how about you?

SAM
Same here. If you need any help with the coursework you know who to come to.

Thank you, I’ll keep you in mind.

Anytime. Well I better be getting home but if you ever need me, you’ll know where I’ll be. Library or Arts.
