He stepped closer to me,every step he took towards me made my heart beat rapidly and I breathed heavily as if I fought for oxygen,he was obviously drunk and his state made me believe he would take advantage of me as we locked together in a room. When he got close enough, enough for me to perceive his cologne,I arched my back with my hands on the table,I didn't want us to be that close.
He gripped my hands,"Ugh...I think I have a problem"He chuckled,he stepped back and used his hand to rub his forehead.
"I can't stop thinking about you"He asserted with a frustrating tone in his voice. "You are constantly on my damn mind and it's driving me crazy"
"Muffin,why?"He asked in a very sweet tone. I kept silent,looking at him like he was talking rubbish,he's drunk I guess.
"You must think I'm really drunk right now"He read my mind.
He stepped closer than ever and look straight into my eyes"Yes,I'm
The sound of my ringtone woke me up,"Happy birthday,babe."I heard the deep voice.I didn't bother to check the caller ID because I was too sleepy but I knew who it was,my boyfriend."Thanks babe,are you on your way?."I asked.It was my 25th birthday and yeah,Jace and I are graduates,I went back to Nigeria because I had to sort things out before settling down in the US with him."About that....I won't be able to make it,I have a busy schedule this week."He said across the phone."You can't cancel on your girlfriend's birthday, really?,this is the best gift ever!."I replied angrily."Babe...it's not like that.""Bye."I ended the call,I sighed and covered myself with my duvet,a tear escaped my eyes.What if he's with another girl.I grabbed myself and came online even though,I got messages from college friends,high s
~MICHELLE~My mum announced that we will be getting jamb forms,there's no way I'm going to let that happen,time to enter her bad book."Mummy,I don't want to write jamb....."I stated with a little bit of fear."You will write next year then since you aren't ready."She replied."No,I don't want to write jamb because I don't want to study in Nigeria...""Then you will go to Ghana.""No,mum,I want to study abroad...""There's no money for that!.""There is but you don't want to put your pride and stubbornness aside for your kids.""Michelle!, why are you being selfish?!."Mason yelled."What do you mean by I'm selfish?!."I yelled back."You are just like him,you don't think about anybody,you think I don't know why you want to study in Nigeria so bad!." He argued.
~MICHELLE~He drove us to a park for our picnic date,"Why the park?,your garden would have been nice."I said."We need privacy."I grabbed the picnic basket from the backseat when I got out of the car,"Ugh!!.""What's wrong?!."He rushed to my side."It's quite heavy.""Sorry,let me have it."He gestured for me to bring it.I took a look at the contents in the basket,they were yummy.We took a nice spot,I spread the blanket and we sat down,there were fruits....Strawberry!!A plate of fruit salad separate,peanut butter jar,brownies,slices of different flavours of cake,salads,cookies,muffins,hamburgers,hollandia yogurts,Snickers,McVities butter shortbread biscuits...My favs!!!Bottles of vitamilk and donuts."Can we finish
~JACE~I was already on my way when I called her,I knew she was going to take long.Girls and taking forever to get dressed are like 5&6.I decided that I will hang out with Mason until she's ready,as soon I rang the doorbell,Maya opened the door,the second person I saw was their mum in the living room, probably waiting for someone or something."Good afternoon,ma."I greeted."Afternoon,how are you my dear?."She asked me."I'm fine ma.""Are you guys going somewhere?."She asked curiously.There wasn't any need to lie,my outfit had already betrayed me."Yes ma.""Oh,with?."One of her eyebrows were already raised.This one she's asking all these questions,has she gained suspicion about her daughter and I.
~JACE~I landed on the floor because I wasn't paying attention to the game when Daniel mistakenly pushed me down,why?.Let's just say,my nose and brain got carried away by the scent,I knew that vanilla scent and I wondered if she was around, fortunately for me and unfortunately for her,I knew she was coming."Guy,get up na.""Did you get yourself injured?.""Is your leg okay?."Leo and Mason asked in a concerned tone."Bro,wetin make you fall?."I wasn't paying any attention to them,it was as if they were on mute but I could still hear,crazy right?.There she was,at the entrance of the court,she hadn't my presence yet and if she did,she would try to leave immediately,she was talking to Kimberly and boy oh boy,she was looking so hot in those short
~MICHELLE~"Whoever introduced Maths,let me not say God will judge that person but he will."I cursed as I flipped through my maths textbook.I punched my calculator aggressively as I tried to solve a maths problem,"Take it easy on the calculator na,did it offend you ?."Lucas asked as he sat down next to me."Why does maths exist?!."I asked in frustration."To solve problems I guess.""Yeah and Nigeria is not yet a better place,this is crap."I closed my textbook."Should I tutor you?.""Since when did you like maths?.","I don't know."He shrugged."Aren't you going to the Cafe?.""Nah,I have to finish what I started."I pointed to my maths note and textbook."Oh,should I get you something?.""Don't worry,I sent Maya
