“I should have known something like this would happen sooner or later” Tosinmile said softly and Ibukun chuckled as she dropped her head and played with her fingers.
“I know right. I feel really stupid about this. All I had was a pure love for him as a fan. I really wanted to meet him and tell him how big of a fan I was. That was my dream since I became his fan. And I thought I might knew meet him and somehow I did” Ibukun started as Tosinmile pressed her chin in her palm.
“Meeting him was…... I don’t know. It was funny and interesting. It was really like a dream come true. I thought maybe it would just be that once but somehow I got to meet him once more. Each time we met or talked; I discovered I really didn’t know him at all. I found out another part of him that no one knew about”

Her eyes caught the bracelet on Ibukun’s hands and her eyes lit up in surprise.“Ibukun where did you get this bracelet from?” Blessing asked and Ibukun glanced at her hands and smiled.“Someone gave it to me” Ibukun replied and Blessing smiled.“It’s pretty and looks good on you” Blessing said and Ibukun smiled and nodded.“Thank you”“Do you have to say everything with a smile?” Fikayo asked and Aaron chuckled.“Why can’t I smile while talking?” Aaron asked and Fikayo scoffed.“Why must you smile?

Fikayo froze at Aaron’s reply as she swallowed her saliva “So what do you think are my qualities?” Fikayo asked.“While everyone thinks you are sassy, rude, annoying and blab la blab; I like to think that you are someone like me. Someone who has or always hold a different opinion from other people. Instead of saying sassy or rude, I’ll like to go for bold, you are bold while saying what you want, what you think as well. You don’t also care whatever anyone says or thinks either, you are just you. although you might be bossy at times” Aaron replied with a smile.“The only difference between both of us is that, you are outspoken and sometimes likes to force her opinion on other people which is kinda impossible because not everyone thinks the same way you do and even if you explain while some will see your line of thinking, some wouldn’t still understand” Aaron added as he chuckled.“What I like the most about you is that; you are just you, you don’t hide who you are a

The trio turned to Aaron who shrugged at them before turning to Fikayo.“Point of correction; I’m not in the wrong here” Fikayo said.“You are. She did tell you to stop it, you just didn’t stop, you added insults” Aaron replied as he rubbed his forehead.“Besides, no one calls their best friend stupid when they are serious” Aaron said as Fikayo frowned and shot up to her feet.“Are you seriously also on her side too? I just said I was joking, why are all of you taking it serious? Why are you ganging up against me?” Fikayo asked her eyes turned misty.“Fi……” Aaron didn’t get to talk before Fikayo ran out of the classroom. Aaron stood up as he sighed.“This is what she always does. Now we have to go and look for her and start begging her even when she’s the one at fault. We’ll apologise and she won’t apologise. What’s her problem exactly? I am tired of her. Who does she think she is anyways?” Blessing asked angrily.“I’m so thankful we are all

“You are still supporting them!” Fikayo snapped as she pushed Aaron away.“I hate you!” Fikayo yelled as tears ran down her cheeks faster.“Didn’t you say you don’t talk unless someone asks for your opinion? No one needs your opinion right now! I don’t” Fikayo yelled as she turned around and started walking away. Aaron sighed as he ran after her and grabbed her before turning her towards him.“I also talk when a friend needs it” Aaron said slowly and Fikayo gulped feeling stupid.Why was she crying anyways? Over a boy she didn’t even like. There were only few times that she cried and Aaron just had to see her while she cried.“They and she is your best friend, that wasn’t the right way to treat her and you know it. You might have been joking for real but she told you to stop it; you should have stopped then Fikayo” Aaron said slowly as Fikayo dropped her head.“They are the only people who have accepted you for who you are, they are only ones who

So on the first day of the month, the month of November that was supposed to be a chill day for fresher’s, they were all lining up in front of the school administrative office trying to complete their registrations.Tolu rolled her eyes after she checked her wristwatch. It was already past 12pm and the line had not moved an inch for over an hour. A lot of students were entering with people they knew and getting things done.Tolu hissed as she had long realized that her mom great connections didn’t extend into DUL. She slowly rubbed her stomach as she checked her wristwatch again.

Or are you thinking about something else?” Demola asked and burst into laughter as Tolu turned bright red.“I wasn’t thinking about anything. You are the one who has a dirty mind!” Tolu snapped at Demola who burst into another round of laughter. Tolu tried to keep her beating heart steady as Demola drove into a compound with rows of apartments.“You live here? This is so cool” Tolu said as Demola parked.“How much did you pay of this apartment?” Tolu asked and Demola chuckled.“Didn’t you see the banner above it?” Demola asked and Tolu turned to him.“What banner?” Tolu asked as Demola shook his head.“These apartments are for members for the DULSU” Demola replied and Tolu’s eyes widened.

Ibukun smiled as she pressed the phone closer to her ear “I kinda had a fight with Fikayo today” Ibukun said slowly.“Friends fight all the time, but why do you sound like that?” Lashe asked and Ibukun chuckled.“As I told you, Fikayo is very different somehow I and Blessing ended up pinching her sore spot but we are good now but I can’t believe I got scolded” Ibukun replied as she laughed.“Everyone gets scolded, you are sounding like you were disgraced” Lashe said and Ibukun burst into laughter.“Somehow.

You don’t hype and talk about him like before. You don’t like him again?” Blessing asked laughing and Ibukun slapped her hand playfully. She unfortunately couldn’t tell Blessing and Fikayo that he was still on the phone with Lashe the night before.That they were good friends and that he always sneaked out to see her. That she liked him and had feelings for her. Ibukun wondered what their reaction would be like when they found out these facts.“Says who?” Ibukun asked and burst into laughter.“If on his next fan talk, I ask him about his parents; do you think he will answer me?

“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.
