Double cross Chapter 8: The Divided Heart
After class, Bella cornered Mariam near the water tank.“Mariam, why didn’t you let me pick you up this morning?”Mariam looked startled. “Bella, don’t be angry. I had to get something for my mum and drop it at her shop. You know it’s closer to school.”“But your mum doesn’t open early,” Bella pressed.“Eh… this time she had to. She opened early today,” Mariam replied too quickly.Bella stared at her. Then, suddenly, softened. “I feel so bad for Amaka. She was just fifteen…”“I know,” Mariam whispered. “May her soul rest in peace.”“Well, Samuel and I want to eat somewhere private,” Bella said. “So… see you later.”Mariam’s eyes widened. “Oh… can I come?”Bella smiled coldly. “No. You’re not invited.”She turned and walked away.Mariam stood there, heart sinking.Not even five minutes later, Kingsley walked into the classroom. His face was blank, but his eyes looked shattered. Everyone rushed to meet him.“Sorry, Kingsley…”“I know it hurts.”“You’ll be fine.”He nodded stiffly, prete
Double cross Chapter 7: The dead don’t whisper they scream
Mariam stepped out of her compound, adjusting the buttons on her school uniform with shaky fingers. Her eyes lifted and froze.Parked directly in front of her gate was Samuel’s black car.Her heart skipped.The window rolled down slowly, revealing his familiar smirk. “Hi, Mariam.”She blinked. “Ah… Samuel? What are you doing here?”“I came to pick you,” he said casually. “How else would I see that beautiful smile this early in the morning?”Her smile faltered, her voice hesitant. “But… I don’t remember telling you to come this morning.”“You don’t need to tell me, my love,” he said, stepping out of the car with easy confidence.She blushed slightly. “You know I usually go with Bella to school. I don’t want her to suspect anything. She’s your best friend, too.”Samuel chuckled. “Come on, Mariam. We’re just friends, not lovers. And Bella isn’t my girlfriend.”Mariam hesitated, then nodded reluctantly. “Okay, fine. But promise me, you won’t drop me at the front of the school gate. Bella
Double cross Chapter 6 : what love shouldn’t be
The night was unusually quiet. Too quiet.In her dimly lit apartment, Mrs. Gbemisola Ajayi sat curled on her couch, lost in thought. The air felt thick, heavy with regret and memories. She had left school hours ago in a rush, barely locking the classroom door before jumping into her car. Now, in the silence of her home, her thoughts screamed louder than ever.Where did it all go wrong? she asked herself.She stared blankly at the wall, her eyes glazed over. Guilt clawed at her, biting harder than usual tonight. She thought about her marriage—about Tunde. About how she had stayed in a union that gave her nothing but wounds.But should I feel guilty for cheating on a man who never loved me? Who only deceived me? she wondered bitterly.Her lips trembled. Her heart was torn, bleeding silently with shame and longing. She missed the version of herself that believed in love. She missed the girl who thought a good marriage was a reward for purity and patience. But that girl was gone.Her phon
Double cross Chapter 5: The push
Next Day at SchoolI wasn’t myself. My stomach was tight with anxiety, and I needed to speak to Samuel—fast.I saw him across the hallway and began hurrying toward him. But just as I made my move, Bella stepped in my way.“Where are you going, Mariam?”“Oh… just to do something quickly downstairs.”“Okay, be fast. We need to go to the library—only one week left till exams.”“I know. I’ll meet you there soon.”Once she was gone, I ran straight to Samuel.“Hi, Samuel.”“Hey, Mariam. You good?”“No. I came to tell you the exact excuse I gave Bella—so you can say the same thing if she brings it up.”“Smart. What did you tell her?”I filled him in quickly, and he nodded.“Your mum—wow. She’s amazing. She saved us.”“She knows me well. I don’t lie unless I have to. And since Bella doesn’t usually visit, my mum sensed something was off.”“Your mum is not like the typical African mum, oh,” he said, chuckling. “Others would have shouted: ‘Market? I never sent her anywhere!”We both laughed. I
Double cross Chapter 4: The web we wove
Oh my God,” I muttered, frozen in place. I could see Bella, seated with my mum.Panic rose like bile in my throat. My feet were stuck. I didn’t know if she had already asked my mother about the “trip to the market.” I had no idea what she might have uncovered. My hands were clammy. Samuel, still in the car, had no clue Bella was in my compound.He finally stepped down, looked towards the house, and froze when he saw her. Our eyes met, both of us silently asking the same question: What do we say now?We approached cautiously. My mum was seated outside, chatting comfortably with Bella, who wore a subtle but unreadable expression.“Mariam, how are you?” my mum asked. “Did you buy what I asked you to buy?”“Yes, mummy, I did.”She nodded, then turned to Samuel. “And who is this boy?”“He’s my friend, mummy. He goes to my school.”“Oh, okay.” She gave a half-smile. “You can speak to your friend. She’s been waiting for you.”I turned to Bella, heart still racing. “Hi Bella, you didn’t tell
