“Yes. I made it online” Lashe replied slowly as he showed the waiter his phone. The waiter checked his phone and her eyes widened.
These young teens had a freaking reservation! That wasn’t the point, they had booked a private room!
She instantly wore her best smile and bowed a little at the both of them “Pardon me, I’ll take you to your private room now” she said and Lashe nodded as he held Ibukun and they followed the waitress as she led them into the elevator. They stopped at the third floor and she led them to a room.
“This is your reservation” she said and Ibukun gave her a small smile.
“Thank you” she said as she opened the door and pulled Lashe inside.
The waitress wiped off imaginary beads of sweat off her forehead. She almost asked them if they really

“You want me to seat and do anything?” Ibukun asked and Lashe shrugged.“You are the one who doesn’t have a talent in dancing or singing” Lashe replied as he burst into laughter and Ibukun pouted as she hit him playfully.“I learn miser” Ibukun said and Lashe raised an eyebrow at her with a bright smile.

“Ibukun!” Tosinmile yelled.“Yes?” Ibukun asked yelling as well.“Come downstairs right now!” Tosinmile replied.“Right now. Make it quick” Tosinmile added and Ibukun shot out of her bed as she ran out of her room running downstairs as soon as she sensed the urgency in Tosinmile’s tone.“What happened?” she asked as soon as she reached downstairs. Tosinmile turned her phone towards her.“You guys weren’t careful enough” Tosinmile said as Ibukun collected the phone from her and there was a picture of she and Lashe. It was when Lashe was calling and had removed his sun glasses while she leaned into his chest. Lashe’s face obvious but since she had buried her head in his chest; no one could see her face.“The picture is circulating like crazy” Tosinmile said as she collected her phone. Ibukun rubbed her forehead slowly.“The person is crazy. Why wait for about four days before posting the picture?” Ibukun asked as she sighed.“At least, o

Lashe was unable to find his voice for a long time. He stared at Toluwanimi who’s gaze didn’t waver from him for even a second.“Nimi, do you know what you are saying?” Lashe asked slowly.“Lashe, I know what I am saying okay? I know what I am saying. And I am telling you that I like you” Tolu replied and Lashe sighed.“How can you like me? I am dating your younger sister. I’m dating Ibukunoluwa” Lashe said and Tolu scoffed.“So what? Because Ibukun likes you, I can’t like you huh? Is that it?” Tolu asked and Lashe was tongue-tied.“What part of her is better than me anyways? She’s just obsessed with you; she doesn’t love you! don’t mistake obsession for love” Tolu screeched and Lashe chuckled.“Tolu……what did you just say?” a soft voice asked and both Tolu and Lashe turned to see Ibukun standing a few meters away from them. she had a blank look on her face and Lashe immediately rushed towards her.“Since when have you been here?” Lashe aske

“I hate myself” Tolu cried but Demola just looked into the darkness without saying anything.“I can’t believe I didn’t realize I had such feelings for him until he and Ibukun started dating. Just how stupid I am. How can I call myself her elder sister? She even caught me confessing to her boyfriend. God, I’m so horrible” Tolu continued crying and Demola sighed.“I can’t believe I liked a girl who is this horrible” Demola said softly and Tolu froze and her tears and sobs seemed to take a pause as well. She slowly loosened her hold around Demola’s waist. She raised her head to meet his gaze.“Why are you looking at me like that?” Demola asked slowly unable to stop the heartache in his heart.“I liked you. I like you but it seems like it’s not the same with you. Even still, we were friends, you shouldn’t have treated your younger sister like that” Demola said as he sighed and slipped his hands into his pockets.“Toluwanimi, you are a horrible human being”

Tosinmile swallowed her saliva without saying anything. Ibukun continued to stare into space dazed.“Tolu likes Lashe” she repeated again. Tosinmile sighed as she slowly patted Ibukun’s hands.“She said I was obsessed with me. That she posted the picture intentionally” Ibukun said slowly as she blinked her eyes.“Why?” Ibukun asked as she turned to Tosinmile. A lone tear slid down her cheeks and Ibukun blinked her eyes rapidly; trying to prevent the other tears from running down her cheeks.“Why did she have to do that?” Ibukun asked as more tears rolled down her cheeks.“Why…... Why……. Why… Why …….” Ibukun found it unable to complete her statement as she broke into sobs. Her own sister had fallen in love with her boyfriend, as if that was not enough; she had even tried to cause a rift between both of them and instigated that she was just obsessed with him.More tears rolled down her cheeks as her body shook and moved to and fro as she cried.

“Hey” Mary said softly as she sat on her bed that was facing Tolu’s bed. Tolu who had been lying on the bed and staring into space looked startled at the sight of her best friends. Mary was seating on her bed and looking at her with kind eyes while Rebecca leaned on one of the bunks and folded her arms.“Are you okay?” Mary asked slowly and Tolu slowly sat up on the bed. Tears streamed down her cheeks and Rebecca quickly rushed to her with Mary following.“What is it?” Rebecca asked as she tried to wipe Tolu’s tears.“I am a horrible person” Tolu murmured as Mary sighed.Ibukun fell on the bed as she sighed.

Rebecca sighed immediately and slowly rubbed Tolu’s back.“It’s for the best” Rebecca said slowly.“I don’t think Ibukun would ever forgive me” Tolu murmured and Rebecca chuckled.“You can’t be so sure when you haven’t tried” Rebecca said as she pulled Tolu in for a hug.Tosinmile’s face turned solemn the moment her phone rang. She picked the call and pressed it to her ears. She dropped her phone before walking outside the house and walked towards the gate.She opened the gate and found Tolu standing outside the gate. Tosinmile immediately sighed.“This is your house, why aren’t you entering?” Tosinmile asked and Tolu turned to her.“Sister Tosinmile” Tolu said softly and Tosinmile managed a small smile.“Come in” Tosinmile said opening the door wide for her.

She sighed as noticed Tolu’s extra tiny wrists and how her frail body waived. Her heart grew soft at the sight and she swiftly turned away from the sight and her eyes came in contact with a photo frame on the drawer beside her bed.The photo frame had a picture of she and Tolu grinning from ear to ear. She had wrapped her hands around Tolu as if she wanted to strangle her while the other looked like she wanted to die. Below the photo frame was an inscription.Sisters forever.Ibukun closed her eyes as tears streamed down her cheeks. The more she thought about it, she couldn’t bring herself to hate or blame Tolu. She didn’t know why that even after what she had done, she wanted to see how her sister was doing but she didn’t have enough mental power to ask.She wondered how her elder sister had been doing all those while seeing her younger sister with the guy she was in love with. Ibukun had never come across such a sister but from what she knew, she didn’t dar

“There are sleeping pills inside” Tosinmile said and I looked at her in surprise as she nodded as we both turned to Lashe.“He needs to rest” Tosinmile said as my eyes went soft. I placed Lashe’s head on my laps and adjusted him in a sleeping position. Slowly cradling him and patting him to sleep was what I did for about three days straight.I wasn’t surprised at the massive turnout at the burial.
