#JUST_BEST_FRIENDS Author: Sam Freddy CHAPTER 22: CHAOS. ——— After what transpired between Yomi and Idara just yesterday, Idara hadn't been the same again. She felt like utter garbage anytime she recalled the pathetic incident, and — as if that wasn't enough — the fact that Yomi called her earlier to inform her about everything concerning his trip with his so-called "lover" (including a lovely poem which he got from her yesterday) amplified Idara's pain like never before. However, somehow, Idara attended her final class for the day, and then met with Anastasia and Isioma at a cool spot close to the school library, where she then narrated her ordeal to the ladies, who were both beyond astonished after listening to Idara's plight. “Honestly, I've never been hurt like this since I was born.” Idara added,

#JUST_BEST_FRIENDS Author: Sam Freddy CHAPTER 24: WELCOME TO LAGOS, BABY. ——— Completely naked under a fluffy duvet with her wealthy side-lover Mr. Titus by her side, Candice heard her phone ringing and sluggishly grabbed it from the bedstead to know who the caller was. Having seen the caller's name, Candice quickly jumped out of bed like an athlete and then excused herself as she hurried to Titus' bathroom to answer her call. “Hey, baby.” “My darling.” Yomi's voice was crystal clear, despite the fact that there was some noise coming from his end. “What's up na?” “I'm all good o.” Candice replied sweetly. “Besides, what's all that noise coming from your background?” “Oh.” Yomi chuckled. &ldquo

#JUST_BEST_FRIENDS Author: Sam Freddy CHAPTER 26: PROOF. ——— At exactly twelve-thirty PM, Danladi walked into Yomi's salon for a fresh haircut. He was delighted to see Yomi finishing up with a female customer upon his arrival.  As typical guys, the first thing that Yomi and Danladi did was shake hands while hailing each other aloud, and then Yomi asked him to sit on the swivel chair and wore a black barber gown for him when he was seated. “Hey, bro, I heard about what happened to you and your friend last night, man.” Danladi said, eyes fixated on the wall mirror. “I'm sorry about that.” “Thanks, man.” Yomi said, sterilizing his clipper. “Who told you, though?” “Have you forgotten I'm dating your friend's friend?”

#JUST_BEST_FRIENDS Author: Sam Freddy CHAPTER 28: INDECISION. ——— Slowly, Candice's eyes opened and the first person she saw was a stranger sitting beside her, before spotting Yomi on the other side of the bed, sitting next to her as well.  She noticed that there was a medical drip connected to her left arm, which she found somewhat awkward. “She's awake.” Yomi heard the nurse and looked at Candice at once. “Goodness! At last!” Candice coughed, confused. “What happened?” She asked, feeling light-headed. “You fainted.” Yomi got up, stroking Candice's forehead. “God, you have no idea how happy I am to see you talking. How do you feel?” “A little weird.” Candice tried to

#JUST_BEST_FRIENDS Author: Sam Freddy CHAPTER 30: MOVING ON. ——— Today's lecture was more like torture for Idara. She was physically present in class, but her mind was in another different realm entirely. Of course, her thoughts dwelled on the heartbreaking occurrence between she and Yomi last night. She'd thought about it for a long time until she dozed off, thinking that a good sleep would probably help her cool off, but the reverse was the case this morning. How on Earth was she supposed to stay away from Yomi, her best friend, her companion; someone she actually sees every blessed day in this bloody department? Just how? It was like having a mirror in one's room and ignoring it for no solid reason, or trying to avoid one's shadow for no just cause. How possible could that be? It r
