Chapter 62: Promise
Joanna's POV
"Come over here you two." I smiled and motioned over the two most protective friends I had and still have. They didn't blink or waste a second after I spoke because in a flash I was in the middle of an emotional hug as Harmony kept whispering sweet things in my ear while Tenda sobbed on my shoulder.
"I love you both so much." I sighed and gave them each a kiss on their foreheads as my heart squeezed in affection.
They pulled away a little over a minute later and Tenda wiped away her tears before she tried to give me a stern look as she spoke.
"Never do that again young lady, or I swear I would journey to the beyond and drag you back here to spank your ass, got that? She glared with fresh tears breaking through once more, to which I nodded and pulled her for a hug of mine.
"Pave way for the future sister in-law." Fahvour grinned as she walked over to us to

Self-Love Announcement.
Announcement!!I've received several comments about what transpired in Chapter 2 (Ignoring Hoes)Some are saying I took it too far, others are saying that's unrealistic, while few others said I should delete and rewrite it as it seems harsh.What I have to say is, I'm not deleting or removing that part, becauseFirstly: It's my story.Secondly: I've edited in, and that's as far as I can go with it.Lastly and importantly: It is the only original part of my book. Meaning, it happened to me back in my high school days, sadly, I couldn't stand up for myself, which is why I wrote that and made Joanna speak up and put the teacher in her place.Shit happens in this life, most things you find unbelievable are taking place in areas you don't know about.I'm sorry if it seems disrespectful to anyone, but it's staying that way.If you a
Self-Love Chapter 1: Getting Ready For That Shithole
Joanna's POV "Joanna, get up." I heard someone yell. "Could someone help me stop that noise?" I groaned, closing my ears with the pillow. "I really need this five minutes of extra sleep." I silently prayed. "Joanna!" The voice came out again. This time it sounded clear and like -- Oh shit. I jumped off my bed immediately. Where could I hide? "Joanna Gore Alex. Get the hell up or I swear, I will unleash hell on your head!" My mum shouted as she pounded on my door. There went my delicious sleep people. Yes, I called sleep delicious. Have you tasted it? Trust me, you should. I hope that you would understand my current situation. "Oh, you don't want to get up? She questioned. "Suit yourself then," she scolded and a few seconds later I heard her footsteps retreat. "Thank God!" I sighed and did a happy, booty shake afterward. PS: it's a thing where you like roll your hips and twerk a little. The booty shake was short-lived when I felt something cold and wet sting my skin. "What the
Self-Love Chapter 2: Ignoring Hoes
Joanna's POV Playing my favorite song, 'If I were a boy' by Beyonce, my mind stayed afloat. Alone with my thoughts and nothing else. I didn't even realize that I was at the school's entrance until I heard voices from inside the school - people were shouting and doing their daily stuff. I immediately put my phone away to hide it from the authorities before they seized it. Phones weren't prohibited at this school but are not used except in the cafeteria, nowhere else. Entering the school's premises, I knew that I was late because classes had started a while ago and guess what? The gossiping teachers Harmony told me about were attending to latecomers and at the same time, searching for interesting topics to gossip about. I knew how schools like this worked. I've heard stories from Harmony and Elvis. Harmony was my childhood friend, he attended this school but he decided to search for another school in Enugu, where he traveled to for the holidays. Apparently, he couldn't imagine facin
Self-Love Chapter 3: Goodbye Ribs
Joanna's POV I was still muttering profanities under my breath and worrying about my plans already failing that I stopped abruptly after I heard a loud voice or should I say a scream. "Alex," A deep voice cried. "Oh no," I groaned as I could recognize that voice anywhere. "Alex!" It sounded louder this time. "Shit," I grumbled and sent a silent prayer to GOD. "Please don't be him, please don't be him" I kept chanting while I slowly turned around, praying that I was wrong, but no, I was right. For once in my life, I was right, and this wasn't for my good, because as I completely turned, I spotted him running down the hall at top speed. "Please don't notice me, please don't notice me," I prayed. Idiot if he hasn't noticed you why would he be screaming your name? my subconscious taunted to which I ignored her. I know most of you are already wondering who this is, hence he was causing me inner turmoil, *sigh* well that was my one and only real friend I told you about, in fact,
Self-Love Chapter 4: Kill Me Now
Joanna's POV *Thump, thump* Did you hear that? I think that was the sound of my heart as it tried to beat out of my chest. I didn't know what was wrong with me, but I swear I saw Tony coming in slow mode, you heard me right, in slow motion like a lion quietly walking to its prey because it was sure they couldn't escape, and guess what? I was that prey with no possible means of escape, Yay! you feel my sarcasm? "Well, well well." He smirked, "who's this cutie here?" "Oh shit." I swallowed and felt my heart, beat faster in fear. He kept coming closer, while I tried to move back, at the same time placing a palm on my chest, in a bid to stop the drumming of my heart, and the bad news, my back hit the fucking wall. "Shit, shit, shit," I muttered. "What's your name beautiful." He winked, and placed his arm on the wall behind me, and brought his face to the same level as mine, where I could see every line on his face and perceive his intoxicating scent. When I thought things couldn't
Self-Love Chapter 5: New Girl Drama
Joanna's POV It's been a month since I came to be in this school and may I say it's going well, that's apart from the occasional glares Tony and I exchange whenever we cross parts and the fact that Blake, Ifeanyi, Harmon,y and I can tolerate each other to the point of exchanging pleasantries. Well, today is the starting of another week and I remember we were told by one of our teachers about a test today on a subject I don't remember. I shook my head to rid it of education thoughts despite that I just stepped into the school hallway. Speaking of, I immediately noticed it was buzzing with some recent news, how you may ask, well it's because students were

Joanna's POV"Damn, am loving that smile." Harmony winked at her as she walked past us."I could swear that smile was for me." Tony scoffed."Nah, it wasn't." Harmony smirked."It was." Tony beamed, with a mischievous smile on his face.I could see what he was doing, trying to rile Harmony up. I need to stop this before fists start flying, and trust me, it will. If you've been around these two for a while you would know am not joking."Guys," I called, no answer."Hey Guys," I tried to get their attention, but none gave me a listening ear as they were both busy arguing over a girl who didn't know they existed."Shut up children!" I yelled and offered them both a smack upside the head to get their attention, and from the way, they were both glaring at me, I guess I succeeded."What the---"Chi
Self-Love Chapter 7: Growing Up
Joanna's POVSchool went on with much drama as it always does and before I knew it we were in our senior year or should I say final year of secondary school (high school) and that's if we pass our final exams, If not we have to stay back another year and retake the exams.In my country the final year students don't write the usual school exams, instead we write the West African Examination Council general exams or as we like to call it 'WAEC'.Final year students like us don't learn because this whole year is occupied with notes and practicals together with enough free time to read for the exams.Special well behaved students are given authorities at this level to control other students or as we like to call it 'Rule the School'.Most idiots struggle to get this position by all means but a girl like me who hates attention doesn't give a shot about that.&nbs
