I sat in front of my vanity table,doing nothing but staring at my reflection,I could hear Mason make whining sounds as he headed to my room.
"What do you think you are doing?,staring at your reflection,could you hurry up,you just have the habit of making everyone late"He whined,his face held a frown.
I expected exactly what he came out from his mouth,he was already dressed,he wore a skyblue long sleeve,a red tie hanging on the collar of the shirt,in a blue suit with a cream coloured trousers.
"Look,if you want to leave,you can,I know the way to my school"I eyed him.
We were already late to my school dance or should I say class dance? Thanks to Leo,we were able to convince Principal to organize it for us, should I call it Prom?We told him,our set wanted to do something different for the school before we left so he agreed to it,we had already done our Christmas carol,it wasn't that bad.
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
