Chapter 21

"Awwww that's why she's smiling. What about Dele have you broken up with him? When will you even make known this your secret lover?" She asked clasping her hands excitedly.

Dele was my ex, my best friend Yvonne's brother. I had given so much to the relationship and it had gone sour when I realised that I wasn't getting anything in return not even a call. I fell out of like for him because if I'm to be honest compared to what I feel now I never loved him. But I did care about him though only he didn't reciprocate.

He started calling everyday when I broke up with him, but then the feelings were no longer there. I do pity him sometimes and take his call but you can't tell your heart who to love.

I don't know why they only realize what they have when it's gone? It is so vexing.

"Yes. Although he still wants us back together but I don't like him again. It's sad that he now pays more attention to me now that we've broken up. I guess he never expected me to leave. His loss."

"Ashh!" Chika laughed, yawning again. "I'm going home abeg. The next class is by 2. I'll come back. Keep a seat for me oh" she said stopping a shuttle, bus, just in front of our faculty.

I knew she would not come back into school because of a GS course but she had to say it so she would fulfil all righteousness.

I wasn't going to come back too. I was more than grateful for whatever program Lawsa organized that made the faculty cancel all the other lectures from 9:00am.

I was only just resuming the semester but God knew that I was already tired. It is at this point in my life I ask myself just one important question. "Who asked me to study law?" I would have been studying literary studies and improving my life but no, I said I must be learned.

Just when I thought I was going to go back to my room in peace. Yvonne sashayed happily to my side. let's say she caught me trying to avoid her.

I didn't have the strength to be social today and wanted to be alone but I dared not tell her this or hell and all it's demons will be brought down to earth. If you think Chika Is a drama queen then you haven't met Yvonne. Yvonne is synonymous to drama, they go hand in hand.

"Mma." She chanted hugging me. I held her waist gently. She was so small and thin. Her chocolate color was so nice. She wasn't the beauty Queen but she was beautiful in her own way. In her own small, smiling, social, weird way.

"Yvonne." I laughed almost choking from the falseness of the laughter.

"I have so many things to do and I need you. Where were you going to? Seriously oh my God!"

And,

That was how I zoned off and let her take me wherever she wanted to. With me laughing and talking to the people she talked to like I gave a fuck. Sometimes I did enjoy it but those times were very few and definitely they were not included today. Today, I wanted to go to my lovely sexy bed.

The whole school seemed to know her that's not a problem, but then she was making them start to know me too and that's a problem.
