"Okaaaay..but why the hell didn't you go to the party, didn't you wanna see your crush?" i asked, wiggling my eyebrows. A blush crept up at her face.
She has this crush on James since primary school but James only sees her as a friend. I told her to confess her feelings for him but she refused, she said she is scared of rejection.
Let me tell you a secret ,James also have a crush on Abby but the two of them are too blind to see their feelings for each other. what a shame right?. I used to tell Abby but she won't believe me,she said he likes someone else. You see,James is a very nice guy and he is handsome and my friend here,Abby is also beautiful,a lot of guys had ask her out but the problem is,they never last. She only date for one month,that is her policy, well I don't blame her ,her love for James made her like that.
"Oh Lucy ,I was busy that was why I didn't go to the party" she said with a sigh.
I knew it a lie,she didn't wanna go because she doesn't want to see him with his new girlfriend Suzy, if she sees them kissing and all that,it will break her heart.
"Okaaay" I don't wanna push it.
Some thing caught Abby's attention, from my back, I turn around to see who she was looking at and it turned out to be him, whose name shall not be mentioned.
Thomas my ex
"Hey,see your Mr hottie" she signaled with a sad smile.
Looking at Thomas right now reminds me of our happy time before it was ruined by Natalia. Well, he is on his usual spot right now with his friends . People call them the most handsome,hot players, popular and trouble makers of the school .
I wonder how I fell in love with Thomas cos I'd always hated trouble makers. I guess its because of his good looks.
Few day after our break up, he came begging me to get back together again. I wasn't stupid to jump on him and just forget nothing had happened.
'Baby please I'm sorry,please I love you. I was so drunk that I didn't know what I was doing please babe' he begged
'Please just go away Tom,I am tired of your bullshit,just go back to Natalia since she is the one you wanna be with' I said in between cries
'No babe please you are the one I wanna be with, please give me another chance,please'
'Tommy I am doing you a favour just go,because I know Natalia is not the only one you have slept with' I said.
People always warned me about him but I never heed to their warning. I thought they were all jealous of me but I now believe what they were trying to tell me.
"Lucccccy" Abby whispered yelled Bringing me out of your thoughts.
"Lucy, what are you thinking about?, you went off for like 5min.Don't tell me you are thinking about that jerk " Thomas"" she said pointing at him.Abby knows me both in and out.
"Yeah,well I was just thinking about the time we broke up" I frown.
"Hey girl,you know you are better than that jerk, you deserve much more better than him" . Abby knows how to cheer me up and I love her for that.
"Thanks,I love you" I said with a smile.
"Yeah yeah yeah I know you do and please stop getting so mushy with me " she said with an eye roll
Lucy p.o.vI got down from bed and head to the bathroom to shower.I haven't dreamt about Mr handsome since the other day. I wish I can still see him again.Today being Saturday, which means weekend day. I decided to busy myself in my room by doing my assignments. I haven't gone down yet to greet mum coz I'm definitely sure she is also sleeping right now.Few hours later, I was done with the assignment so I went down to have breakfast or should I say lunch coz the time is 12:00am already.My mum was by the refrigerator getting the eggs for her cake."Morning mom" I greeted and kissed her on the cheek."Morning darling,are you done with your assignments ?" She ask with a smile."Yeah,I just came to have my breakfast and hmm by the way your snacks smells good"" I move forward to pick one of the meat pie.Its so delicious and I think am gonna add more weight because of the way I eat, most es
Lucy p.o.vAbby left this morning to bring dozens of her clothes. I told her it'll be better if we go to her house instead of working herself up to bring all her fancy dresses here. But anyways, she still refuses, she said its better she do all in my house coz its more fun here." please help me out, which one looks good on me best" a desperate Abby asked" Abby try this one,its so pretty with all the flowers"It a maroon dress that looks so beautiful. I vividly remember the day we went shopping and together we bought thesame dress . Hers was maroon and mine was pink ." oh my.how can I forget about this dress. " she looks happy and quickly put it on."It fits me perfectly well,Lucy" Abby said while gushing..Yes the dress is so beautiful. It fit Abby so well, especially the way it hugged her body nicely."Told you ,you're gonna like it, I am the best dress adviser" I boosted
Ivan p.o.vMy plane just landed and I was told that the driver and my sister are coming to get me from the airport. I just got back from Abuja at the insistent of my mom. If she leaves it to me, I prefer to stay with my uncle in Abuja. But, I wouldn't blame mom, coz she said she miss having me in the house.Lagos is still the same as I had known it. With all the population, the noise and everything in general. Since I live in the quiet part of Lagos, the well known lekki, I'm sure my coming back here wouldn't be in vain. I love parties and I'm sure there is gonna be a lot of clubs around their.**In a coffee shop to relax myself with a chill drink while waiting for Emilia my sister and the driver . I don't know what is keeping them so long ,i called her but she isn't picking up, maybe they had a problem with the car or something else. I called my mum ,she told me Emilia left the house one hour ago."Ivaaaaan" some one shouted my

LucyRECAP"What the fuck is wrong with your sight".PRESENTI look up at him from the floor . I still can't believe it's him. I need to stop checking him out , I really look stupid while checking him out .Lucy concentrateI cleared my throat and got up to glare at him, how dare him insult my sight when he is also at fault . Before I could reply to him, he beat me to it." what ? you can't talk or what. Are you stupid?" he asked with a glare"What is wrong with you?You are at fault here coz you pushed me , dumb ass" I retort with my own best glare."Who did you just called dumb ass?" he looked angry already"You of course ,who else"I smirk with folded arms. He is seriously fuming right now .He glared at me and I also glared back, two can also play the game. We were in a kin
IVANEmilia and I started our senior secondary class Last week in a new school . I'm an art student(ss3) and she is a science student(ss2). In my own view,i think the school is OK,just OK. The only annoying thing is the way girls keep gawking and swooning at me.That got me thinking ,if they haven't seen a guy before..A lot of girls were trying to approach or seduce me with their annoying caked faces. It isn't like I don't like girls, the thing is, the girls I dated are sexy and don't cake their faces with too much make ups.Girls that apply too much make ups always look ugly to me, but to them they think they are sexy and beautiful.I called that bullshit.I also made new friends too and was also invited to a party this night. I'm never gonna miss it for the love of anything.I was on my way to my next class after departing with my new friends ,a girl stop me on the way. When I looked at her face I knew
Lucy POVI woke up with serious headache today. Yesterday was so tiring and stressful with all the work at Collins special . I took my bath and sashayed to take the pills on my nightstand. I finished preparing for school and went straight to the kitchen to have my breakfast. My mum had gone to work already, I saw the note she left on the kitchen counter it saysGood morning honey.I left some money on the dinning table . use it to buy anything you want after school.Love you.Mom.I quickly ate my breakfast and left for school. Thank God the headache had reduced and I made it to school on time .I ran towards my class but unfortunately for me, I bumped into a hard chest and fell on my butt.I stood up to confront whosoever it was and , guess who? Its the handsome jerk , my dream guy."You" we both said in unison."I
Ivan POVI don't know what is wrong with this lucy girl, she keeps on bumping into me. She has the nerve to called me dumb ass...just imagine .The worst part is, I don't know why I have been an ass to her. Maybe its because she reminds me of Linda my ex. The day I started having does dreams, I thought it was linda coz of the resemblance she has with the dream girl. But when I bumped into Lucy the first time at Collins restaurant ,there and then, I knew that the dream girl was actually her. The way her eyes blinks, the way she talks, it just so similar. I don't know what all this mean, maybe the best idea is to ask Lucy if she also sees me in herdreams.But that will sound stupid? I thoughtOr maybe I should try to know more about her, maybe I should be friends with her. I just pray she wouldn't give me a hard time" son? Are you alright " moms voice shakes me out of my thoughts
ONE YEAR LATERLucy smiled at the brightened stars.She feels that her dreams has come through and she couldn't be happy less. This past few months had been a rollercoaster for her . So many had happened in just a short period of time but luckily for her everything is now in place and nothing else is more exciting as that .She is now a full graduate. Yes, she had graduated from her University. It's just like yesterday when things seems to be hard for her at school but now look at her, a full graduate.That smile still refuses to wipe off. It just as if she was created with it , joking." Lucy"She went back inside at the call of her mom . She locked the door and went straight to the kitchen to meet her ." Mom? You called"Her mom turned around to face her with a wide smile " you won't believe who just ca
Life is just a hustle. One only strive to survive. Today is the day. The day of the match and unfortunately for Ivan he can't make it because his sickness worsen earlier this morning. He had to be rushed to the hospital if not he might collapsed.Ivan was sad that he couldn't be in the Match. His fellow team mate assured him not to be worried because they know his condition and they also know how he has always wanted to participate in this game today.Ivan was still sad no matter what people said to make him feel better. Nothing hurt more than this. He put his all into this coming game and the worse is he infact didn't even have Lucy's time all because of this game and then here he was laying on a hospital bed looking at the ceiling with no one to keep him company. Williams is a player too so he needs to be at the field since the game is about to begin.He groaned loudly that infact, he even got the attention of hi
Lucy's mom yawned loudly as she woke up from sleep. She smiles loving how cool the weather was today. She stared at the girls who were also sleeping beside her. She smiled because her heart was filled with content. All she can say right now is, she is happy.She got up quietly not wanting to wake the girls up. She entered into the bathroom and did her business. Few minutes later she came out fully changed.She decided to surprise the girls with a delicious morning breakfast and luckily for her she got to find out that spaghetti is Sarah's favorite same as her daughter's. She brought out all the ingredients and then began cooking..**Ivan felt groggy. He wasn't getting himself at all. He felt feverish and it wouldn't be nice if any form of sickness is about to set in. It wouldn't be nice at all because his football game is tomorrow and he had waited long for it.He groaned again
The girls were amazed by what Lucy's mother said. They couldn't help the surprised look on their face." Girls the reason why I told you this story is just to share you guys little about my live. I didn't grow up in a rich home and I made sure i strive to reach where I am today"Lucy cleared her throat " I have a question mom"" shoot"." Who is Lucretia in the story?"Her mother chuckles " To you who do you think Lucretia was amongst us?"" Abby's mom?" Answered Lucy but she wasn't sure." Wrong" her mother chuckledThe two girls stared at her in shock " you're Lucretia?"She nodded her head " yes I am Lucretia"" I can't believe this. So grandma susan isn't your mom?" Lucy asked in confusion." Nope she isn't. She is my second family. We are not related by blood
James paused for a minute not knowing what to say." Are you sure you're ready? I'll be so happy if truly you are because Ivan is also schooling over there"" Wow, you don't mean it . Ivan is here ?"" Yes Abby . He is and he too couldn't believe it "" And we haven't met! I can't believe it . I need to reconnect with him. Its high time we all meet. I can't wait for this to be all over. So I can now have time for myself and my love ones"James chuckles " it's just a matter of time. Everything will fall into place"Abby sighed " I hope so"" You just wait and see"" Alright if you say so. By the way we've been talking about other things, we didn't even talk about ourselves."James laughed " but we're good and we always do that all the time . We talk about ourselves."
" mom you didn't answer"Lucy's mom signed " I really don't know dear. Abby's mom just went MIA without even informing me or anyone. I'm still in surprise that she can actually do that to me of all people"Lucy sat upright. Now she really felt it, her mom does feels lonely and it pains her to know that." I wish we know some of their relatives. We would have asked them about their where about"Her mom nodded in agreement " you're right dear. We would have at least gotten a clue from them. Last I heard was, her senior brother requested for her to come live with him. He built a big house that can accommodate them all. But I really don't know how true it is."" Everything just seems confusing. Abby didn't say anything to me and now her mother didn't say anything to you Mom. I just hope they're not in any form of danger or some sort. While we were at high school, Abby always have a d
" Ok I'm sorry" Lucy apologised while doing the puppy eyes look.Sarah glared at her " Don't beg me. Leave me alone"Lucy who was sat on the edge of Sarah bed laughed. Sarah's actions are just too funny " but wait Sarah, were you really expecting someone's call?"" It's non of your business"..." My dear friend , it's actually my business. You're my property and who so ever you're dating or wants to date you must pass through me.

Sarah breath in as the chill breeze blew. She smiled loving the whether. Harmattan season is just something she cherish the most, the chilliness, how nice it has always been is something she loves most. This is why most of the time she wish she had a boyfriend .This whether will be nice for cuddling. She sighed sadly.She unplugged the ear buds then found somewhere nice to sit down. She knew she kinda went over board leaving the house just so Lucy can have a nice talk with her boyfriend. The truth is she has been meaning to just have a walk to think about thinks that has been bothering her lately. One of it which is the guy she loved in her class who doesn't reciprocate the feeling.She pouted sadly remembering the hurt she felt when she saw him with another girl and he was smiling at her pain. She just wanted a simple and Happy life but having that seems impossible." Life can be what it is sometimes" she sighed again
