...There was a moment of silence between us. After a while I broke it, "Okay, so Mr.Crazy, what makes you think that if you break up with Chiamaka, I'll date you?"

"You feel the same way about me", he said inching closer.

"What?" I asked my heart rate accelerating. 

"Don't you?" He asked. My breathing increased. His face was now less than an inch from mine. 

He tilted my head up a bit and I drew in a breath knowing what was coming.

Before I could properly process my next line of action, he crashed his lips against mine. 

I shut my eyes at the feel of his lips against mine. I tried to steady my breath as my heart raced in my chest. I felt the urge to kiss back, and somehow, it felt right at that point...

When Chiamaka became friends with Alya, the last thing she expected was for her boyfriend, Ifeanyi, to rekindle the suppressed feelings he once had for her new best friend.

Alya, a pessimist in the making, who lacks interest in a majority of things happening around her never expected her last year in highschool to be any different from the rest of her years in school. In simple words, she expected NOTHING to happen. But life doesn't always work out as planned as she has to deal with a terrible slip of a long time secret, a crazy best friend and a crush she's not so sure of coupled with a sudden uninvited guest. Could she have been wrong to imagine her final year in highschool passing JUST LIKE THAT.

I stared at my phone in surprise going through each digit one by one and there was absolutely no mistake about it. That was my number. 


"Alya!" I turned to see Stephanie's worried face. "What is wrong with you? I have been calling you and you have been behaving so weirdly. You're scaring me," she said. 


"Sorry, it's just... The pictures were sent from my number. How would anyone have sent those pictures from my number?" I asked extremely confused. 


When was the message sent? I was about to text Alesscia when I realized I was actually in that group as well. I facepalmed myself feeling so dumb for not realizing that earlier but I wasn't exactly at fault since my thoughts were more of jumbled. 


I quickly checked my WhatsApp expecting to see at least four thousand unread messages in the group but there were surprisingly only about a hundred messages.
