"I disliked you for a moment. I really thought you disliked Animal Farm."
The frown that was starting to form on my face at her initial words turned into a full blown smile when she completed her sentence.
"Really?" I asked, turning the empty seat in front of her around so I'd be able to sit ejoor facing her. "So if I actually disliked Animal farm, you'd have disliked me?"
She stopped what she was writing, her face ceasing into a frown before she nodded slowly.
"I guess."
Wow. I smiled as I remembered Sophia who basically ignored Kunle and I for almost three weeks because we felt her Korean crush wasn't that fine. What's that dude's name again? The drama Sophia acted for us during that period. Babe yen senseless gan. But she's a very special person t

~Kunmi~"People be damned Kunmi. You're hands down the most interesting, fascinating and beautiful girl I know. You're intelligent and deep that I always find myself looking forward to spending time and talking with you and the rest of the world doesn't know that, that's their loss, not yours."I blinked, once twice at his words. It's the most beautiful words someone has ever said to me but I did not believe it. Something that beautiful couldn't be true about me.I looked away from his face, from his eyes that seemed to want to drink me in, my heart thudding louder in my chest, to where he grabbed my hands, right on my wrist. I tried pulling away but his grip remained firmer, stronger even that I had to look up at his face again and yet, I was stunned by the intensity in his eyes.

~Kunmi~We decided to sleep not long after that. Aminah gave up her bed for Sophia and I and even though I insisted that she or someone else join us, she maintained her stance. I saw no reason, the bed was big enough to contain four people comfortably. Maybe she did that because of Sophia who doesn't like sharing her space with people.Thinking about Sophia, I turned to look at her from looking at the wall, slowly, careful not to make too much sound because the other girls were already lying on mattresses on the floor, probably dozing off. Aunty Sophia was lying on her side, face to me and she was pressing her phone. She'd spent more than an hour doing what she called her skincare routine. In the end, I lost track of the names of the products she'd applied on her face. I've never

~ADAM~I had no place to go in mind when I left our class but I found myself looking around, eyes searching for one person;Kunmi.She wasn't in the love garden so I guessed she'd probably be in the cafeteria which I seriously doubted because she couldn't have possibly gone alone.I climbed down the stairs and I found myself heading towards the cafeteria. The school's cafeteria was located behind the block of studios so I had to walk past them before getting there. I was almost in front of the music studio when my phone vibrated in my pocket and I brought it out only to see the name coz flashing on the screen.Just know that if I should die now, It's Charles' handiwork.

~Adam~I returned to my seat after seeing what caused Aminah to scream like a possessed demon. Kunle was trying, putting up with Aminah's energy. Heavens knows I can't. She was always screaming.The four of them buried their heads in Aminah's phone as if the pictures of the girls were going to fetch them millions or something. I just sat there, watching them, waiting for the malady to pass, waiting for Aminah to stop screaming like a maniac.I wasn't watching them per se, I was watching Kunmi, watching how her eyes widened and she surpr

~Kunmi~"You don't look happy to have me back."That was the first thing Sophia said to me two days after she swapped seats with Adam. I just got to school and Sophia was back on her seat, AirPods in her ears and her body moving in some sort of rhythm to the song she was listening to. Gone was the girl that walked around the school like a ghost for the past two days, gone was the girl with the blank look in her eyes. She removed the AirPods from her ears and her lips stretched into a huge smile when she saw me. Weird but not unusual."You don't look happy to have me back."She repeated when I did not say anything. I only focused my attention on draping my back pad behind my chair before sitting down."Trust me, I did not want to return either but I had to. I don't want you guys to flop your exams.

She learnt what it meant to suck in belly at age 10.It was a Saturday and she was going to the park with her family. Her sister came into her room all dressed up like the cinderalla she was."Kunmi, you're still not dressed? It's like you don't want to go to the park with us.""My gown..."She trailed off as her sister left the room without even a backward glance. She tried putting on the gown once again but it got stucked on her chest and she couldn't even wear it pass her chest.After series of trials and with the state of almost suffocation, she gave up and pulled the dress over her head. She sat down, staring at her stupid, fat and ugly body.Why can't I just have a nice stature like my sister's?"Oluwabukunmi, it's time oo. Let's go."She heard her mother's voice but she remained where

~Adam~The sharp impact of sunlight streaking into my room and affecting my closed eyes made me mumble something incoherent before turning to the other side. The one where my eyes wouldn't be affected by the sunlight.But who drew the curtains by the way?"Wakey, Wakey, sleepyhead."Came Mom's voice in a sing-song tone and I frowned, wondering why the hell she'd be waking me up when I just slept like 5 minutes ago. I dragged my duvet over my head, convinced that I was dreaming and wanting nothing to disturb my perfect sleep."Korede, this is the fifth time I'd come to take you to this morning. Do you want me to wake you up with cold water?"Ooops. Do people t
