Chapter Twenty Six
~Moji~
I walked into the main house in a daze. I still couldn't believe the conversation I had with Fola. I couldn't believe what she had concluded on. I'd never say something like that. She should have known that I'd never say something like that but the fact that she believed it was hurting me.
And the fact that she must be going to extreme pain because she believed it was hurting me more.
"Eku Ile Ma."
I greeted mom who was watching a movie on the TV and my two siblings immediately stood up from where they sat to hug me.
My legs, literally because that's where their height

~Leke~Tobi told me everything.From him liking Fola, to confessing his feelings to her, to her turning him down, to him kissing her, to Moji walking in on them, to Moji getting all angry, to Moji finally telling him that she likes him and blah blah blah.I found myself skipping school the next day, not like I needed permission from anyone. There was no one to even get the permission from. My parents weren't home and it wasn't like I'd ask for permission from the maids.I did not actually have a reason for skipping school but deep down, I knew I'd end up going to Moji's house and that was exactly what I did. The gateman allowed me

~Fola~I was worried about Moji.I was very, very worried.But I kept it all to myself. I avoided Tobi like a plague, kept to myself during classes, disappeared during lunch breaks. I basically acted invisible and even though my therapists had always warned me against acting like that, I liked it.For the two days Moji skipped school, I'd bring out my phone, start to call her before pressing the end button, start to type a message to her before clearing it all. I wanted to ask her how she was fairing but I still couldn't get her words out of my brain. The but Fola just kept repeating itself in my head over me over again.

~Leke~I was in Moji's house.Well, I found spending more time with her these days which might end up becoming a recipe for disaster but I actually don't mind risking that only if it just means spending more time with her.We were currently outside the main house but still in the compound and we both sat on the high table that was in the compound, a table that I've always wondered about what it was used for. Moji was typing away on her phone and she'd burst into occasionally, throwing her head back and it was obvious that she was enjoying herself.I don't have any problem with her enjoying herself. I just have a problem with her enjoying hers

~Moji~I've had my first kiss.And I don't even know what to say or think.I've always fancied my first kiss to be romantic and all.I've never actually thought that it won't be a real kiss. A kiss on the lips.I never thought it would be a kiss on my neck and earlobes.And to say I loved it would even be an understatement.I kept replaying the scene in my head, how his tongue had trailed from my neck to my earlobes and how much I had loved that moment.

~Fola~My parents were looking at me cautiously, looking at me through hooded and guided eyes, looking at me as if I'd snap anytime, looking at me exactly the way they had looked at me when it first happened and the first few months after that.And it wasn't like I did not notice that they were keeping all the sharp objects away. I noticed but I choose not to talk or think about it. Thinking about it might make me wonder if physical pain would hurt more than the emotional one, if physical pain would dull the emotional one.Thinking about it might make me want to do it. Doing it would mean blood all over.A memory instantly flashed in f

~Moji~"I used to have a twins sister and I killed her."My body tensed at her words. Her eyes were on mine but I knew she was not looking at me. There was a farway look in her eyes, as if she was seeing far into the future or the past. That look scared me.A whole lot."We were very close. Too close self and very identical. It was only mom and David that could tell us apart. Dad couldn't. She was the gentle one and I was the troublesome one. She'd take the punishments for my troubles and she'd allow me to take the glory for her own good things. I liked her and I was jealous of her too. I felt our parents preffered her to me and t

~Fola~The first thing I did when I got home was to cross out 'Make a real friend' from my to-do list. I felt like I've indeed found a true friend in her.I've never recounted the day of the fire outbreak until yesterday. I've never told anyone about my own version of how it'd happened but something about Moji had made me forget my resolve not to tell anyone about it and in the end, I'd told her everything, every single thing and I did not regret it.I had the most fun with her that night and I've never had more fun in my entire life. We'd talk about everything and nothing, about her liking Leke and Tobi and the last time I remembered checking before I finally fell asleep was 3:30am. I've neve

~Leke~Moji called me out of the blues to help her in baking a cake for her brother's birthday. I wasted no time in leaving my assignments and jogging over to their house. She was in the kitchen, mixing a batter on the cabinet. She was dressed in shorts again and a small top that was showing off her bellybutton. Immediately I walked into the kitchen and I saw her like that, I knew instantly that it'd be a hassle keeping my hands off her."Oya, come and help me beat this egg instead of turning me into an artwork."I chuckled to myself as I entered the kitchen fully and I stood beside her. I was supposed to be beating the egg, I was actually doing that but I couldn't help stealing occasio
