"Hey munchkin." Cas poked his head through her opened door.
"What's up?" She looked up from her strange gait. She laid upside down, her back to the floor and her legs thrown carelessly over the bed.
"Someone's here for you." He held an unsure smile on his lips.
"Who?"
"Ella." He cleared his throat.
"As in, Emmanuella Coker?"
"Hello Dennis, where exactly have you gotten to?" She spoke, holding the phone to her ear. "Just at the junction." He replied as he looked around trying to find her. "I'm in a black range, hold on, let me look for you." She alighted from the car, frantically waving her arm in air. "Have you seen me now? I'm wearing a white dress?" He looked around again and luckily, he spotted her this time around, a smile on his face as he approached his old friend.
Post utme was long gone and Attracta lay in bed lazy as she pressed her phone. Thinking of what to have for lunch, she heard the doorbell ring. Casper and Aziel had gone on a trip as regards work and she was all alone at home with Titus who manned the gate. The bell rang again as she ran down the stairs. "Coming!" She yelled out, hurrying to the door. She threw it open to come face to face with Lawrence. "Scorpion!" She screamed as she embraced him, waking Marley up.
"Heyy! Congrats!" They all embraced each other in person at the club's parking lot. "You look hot." "You look pretty." The ladies complimented each other while the guys exchanged bro-shakes. "Alright guys, you know the drill. Let's get rooms first." "Yeah!" They all moved to the hotel right by the club. "How many?" The receptionist asked, a bit rudely. "Excuse me, are you insane?" Ruby was a tad ticked off. "Clearly you are." The recep
"Is there something you're not telling me?" Cas asked, sliding into the seat opposite Attracta. "What do you mean? I have no idea what you’re on about." She tried to play dumb. "Titus is my employee, loyal to me and not to you missy." He raised a brow. "Dang it, fuck Titus." She muttered under her breath. "Start speaking, lady." His frown deepened a tad.
The clouds were dark and the ground beneath her crumbled. She ran as fast as she could to safer spots. "Attracta!" She heard her name being called out from the distance. She knew that voice all too well. "Aunty?" "Attracta!" Aunty called again. "Aunty!" She screamed as she stared at the whole of the Peter's family fall into the earth's crust as the ground consumed them, the four she saw.
She walked up to the gate after locking the car safely. "Attracta!" Mr Sam rushed to her immediately she arrived at it. "Come in, come in." He ignored the security guard as he unlocked the gate letting her in, she hugged him closely. "Mr Sam." "Attracta, I missed you so much." "Me too Mr Sam." She smiled at him.
Attracta and Ruby sat at the dinning table, she'd spent the previous night over. "Cas can cook!" Ruby commented as she forked some spaghetti into her mouth. "Calm down." Attracta chuckled. "I can't! It's so good." She moaned. "Drama queen." "Whatever." She dismissed as she relished the meal.
Attracta pulled up at Junior's school. "Okay." She commented as they alighted from the car. "How do we find him?" She asked Ruby. "His classroom." She shrugged. "Alright." She replied as she trudged behind Ruby towards Junior’s classroom. They arrived at the noisy class and Ruby knocked slightly on the open door. "Hey." S
Epilogue "Mantis..." Scorpion said as the recipient picked up the call. "My boss." Mantis, whose legal name was Akachukwu, replied. "One of your guys is passing his boundary and if he's not careful, one spanner lost." Lawrence threatened. "Who? How?" "He's threatening my sister and saying all sort of things." "Who is giving him the liver?" Aka asked. "I don't care. I traced him and I needed you to ask him who he's working for before I tell you any further." "Yes, boss. His na
The D-day was here, it’s Valentine's Day, the day I'd been anxiously waiting and yearning for. I woke up feeling nervous. Nothing must go wrong. By break time, our plan was set to go into motion. I can't wait to ruin them both. I just hoped this plan wasn't too sinister. I walked down to the math lab, that was were the ss2 were having our gift exchange. In a normal setting, we were supposed to receive them as surprise gifts but teachers claimed we would be distracted the whole day. Wasn't the suspense more distracting? I met with Nuel in the math lab, I sat beside him as he pecked my cheek. We were getting more comfortable with each other ever since the day we kissed at his house. For a few days, I'd been suppressing the urge to visit, I remember saying I wanted to take things slow, I couldn't go back on my word. "Baby, I don't think we can go on with plan A to

"Attracta that was-" "Needed." She interrupted. "Yes!" Yetty agreed. "Really?" "Yes, I saw the whole thing. He deserved it." "I'm glad you agree with me." "Why not?" Yetty grinned. "Where are we headed?" "Lunch. My treat this time around." "Aye, Aye captain!" Attracta chuckled. "She'
It was the third year, finally. Time was flying by fast and it was quite scary no matter how relieving the thought of it was. The holidays were too much fun for them, every minute of it was enjoyed. Dennis and Yetty's relationship was waxing stronger by the day. She'd been speaking to his mum for a short while and it was obvious they both loved each other. Attracta was still the lone wolf, single as ever and she seemed fine with the lifestyle. "You're trying to tell me you're not the tad bit interested in a relationship." Yetty asked as they laid up in the living room, chatting. She was laid on the couch while Attracta was sprawled over her favorite bean bag. "Nope!" She sucked on her lollipop. "Not th
"That was epic!" She threw her head back in laughter, super proud of Casper. "Yeah?" He blushed. "Yeah!" She embraced her, bouncing on her heels out of excitement. "You were walking out and he was like Mr Casper, we can settle this." She mocked, in a voice that imitated the Dean. "He looked so petrified." She released another bout of laughter. "You should've seen his eyes when I mentioned the ransom." Cas laughed. "He probably didn't expect me to collect hush money." She laughed. "He didn't see it coming." He threw his head b
Attracta has been skipping GST 201 classes and Yetty had been filling in for her but she couldn't avoid it today, she had to fill in for them both, Yetty was feeling a bit under the weather. She cringed at the thought of going. The lecturer had called her attention twice, professing feelings for her. She sighed as she walked into the lecture hall. A ton of boring words later, the class was over and she tried to leave as stealthily as she could. She'd almost excelled at it till Dipo almost accidentally tripped her. He caught her just in time but it was enough ruckus to draw the attention of Mr Rufus who was almost out of the door. "Peters." He referred to her by her last name. "Good afternoon sir.
Second year of uni started briskly and all the gist was about last semester's results. "Attracta, honestly can't wait to see the results. I'm super anxious." Yetty said as she sat next to her. Attracta who's had enough snapped immediately. "Shut up Yetty!" Yetty was taken aback by her outburst but being the mature, understanding and sensitive soul she was,she didn't dwell on the volume, instead the source was what caught her attention. "Look, I'm -" "Are you okay?" She asked tenderly. "Yeah, what do you mean?" She mumbled. "Something's up with you." She pointed out.  
Downstairs, the party was in full swing while Dennis and Yetty made out in his room. He threw her dress over her head, she was clad in only a thong. His pupils darkened as he stared at her breasts, taking a nipple into his mouth as he caressed the other with his hands, kneading gently. A soft moan escaped Yetty’s lips as the sensation made her skin dance. “Yetty. Should. We. Stop?” He asked in between kisses. “Hell no.” She huffed. Yetty was a virgin and he was aware but tonight she was breaking all restraints. “All the way?” He paused to ask her. “Yeah.” She said in a dazed state. “Are
