2020-08-22 20:04:27"I don't wanna go to high school, I am suppose to be done with that. I need a University" I was arguing with my Dad after hearing I had to go through another year of high school.
"You don't have a choice, you need to go through the American curriculum for a year before you go to the University" he said.I am so angry, if I knew my way around I'd storm off.
"Okay, I heard you" I told him, then I went to my room.I take out my phone and opened my WhatsApp. I had lots of messages. It wasn't unusual since I had lots of friends. And a few fans (not bragging, just saying) I saw a message from Dave.
Dave: Hey, KB what's up? Sorry I wasn't able to say good bye before you left yesterday. I has some errands to run.Korede: I dey o. No wahala. So whats happening??Dave: Just the usual o, eating, work and what notKorede: Lol, this boy ehn. Na wa for youDave: Can you sending me Jasmine's number?Korede: Why??Dave: Just to be chatting her nowKorede: You are hitting on her ba ??Dave: No?! Why would you think that?!Korede: Because... Ya'll are always flirting.Dave: Toh, maybe I like her. But I wouldn't date her if it made you uncomfortable. Plus she might not feel the same way.Korede: Lol. See the number +234*********Dave: thanks!!!!!!:-D :-D :-D Korede: Break her heart and you are dead meat!Dave: Okay boss... I wouldn't do such a thing. I have to go so talk to you later.Korede: Bye.After like an hour of replying WhatsApp messages, I go through Instagram and Twitter and then go to do other things.
As I was about to go attend to other things, I saw her again. Miss gorgeous. I call her that since I don't know her name.
She was looking at me and being the confident dude I am..."Hi, I am Korede Bello. KB for shorts" I said to her"Hey, I am Emma Wilde" she said"So... Just wanted to say hi" I said"You're not from around here, are you?""No, I am from Nigeria. My dad got relocated to the US""Oh, cool. Well if you ever need someone to show you around. I will gladly do so" she said and smiled. Gosh! Her smile is amazing."Well, are you free right now?" I asked her"Yeah! Sure.""Can you show me around now?" I asked her. Half hoping she'd decline"Yes, I would love to. Just need to get my jacket and I will be down""Okay. Awesome.""So how long have you been in the US for??" Emma asked. We were currently at Central Perk a coffee shop.
"I don't know really. My dad is thinking of relocating here permanently." I said"Oh, that's cool""Really?" I asked totally confused by here excitement"Well then I'll have a friend that's from Nigeria" she said and chuckled"So you want to be friends?" I asked and then I realized how stupid the question was"Yes,sure!""Okay then,friends it is" we shook hands playfully and started laughingAs we were talking someone walked up to us"Hey, babe!" He said"Oh, hi Randy" she replies. And then he kissed her as though trying to tell me she's his. I felt totally out of place."Oh, Randy this is my friend Korede Bello" she said "and Korede this is my boyfriend Randy Wayne""Hey man" Randy said his"Hi" I said and shook hand"So 'Korede' that is a strange name""I'm from Nigeria, I just got to America a few days ago" I said"Oh, really?" He asked as though testing the information"Yeah, my Dad got relocated""Oh, that's cool""Yeah, I was just showing KB around the city" Emma says"Then let's continue showing KB around the city" I didn't like the way he stressed the KBAfter and hour of moving around with Randy and Emma , we came back home. Since it was just a fence separating our house.
"So, where have you been?" My mom asked when I walked through the door
"Out. Looking at the city. Trying to get used to the place" I replied totally leaving out the Emma part."Okay, come eat when you are ready." she says."Okay.""What chick did you go out with today??" Ezra says from the door
"How do you know that?" I look up from my computer to look at him"I saw you at the gate""Her name's Emma. She's our neighbor.I said in a "before you jump any conclusions" tone"Really? And you don't like her at all""No, she has a boyfriend" I tell him. And gives him the look that says "that's all"."Okay o" he said "but I know you like her" he added"How would you know that?" I asked"I know you." He says and then walks away.

Wanna have lunch with us?""Sure, why not" I sayAs we reach the table I see all this boys looking so buff and tall with all the cheerleaders. Slender and beautiful cheerleaders."Hey Randy!

"Did she actually say that?" Ezra asked laughing hard about the story I had told him about the girl from the cafeteria."I swear she did." I replied laughing along with him."That's why I love white people. They are so bold." Ezra replied. "But, what's up with that Emma chick?" Ezra added."I don't know. I sorta like her but she's dating this Randy guy." I replied somberly."Your dilemma." Ezra mocked. "So what happens if she never breaks up with him? Will you go and date the Skye Mobile girl?""Hell naw. I am not desperate for a girlfriend!" I squeezed my face like it was the most awful thing that could ever happen to me.

This morning, before getting to school, I had to make sure that I didn't run into Emma. So I got up early and arrived at school thirty good minutes before time. I went into the library and connected my ipod to my headphones. I put the volume really high and played music.I pulled out my Literature text book and continued my home work. The literature in Nigeria is so much different from the one in America.The music was playing so loud that I didn't hear when the bell went off. It was at least twenty minutes later when I felt someone tap me. I turned around to see one the girls that I see always hanging out with Emma."Hi." I said after I had taken the headphones off."Hello. I just came to tell you that your class has started. I figured you didn't hear the bell because I could hear Bruno Mars from where I was sitting." She said.My eyes widened. "Holy Moses! I am late for class." I stood u

EMMA'S POVWhen KB smiled, I couldn't help but smile too. He looked into my eyes and I just knew he was the one. All this while I was dating Randy, I thought I had everything. I saw all his bullshit and I ignored it because I thought I loved him. I have been dating KB for just two weeks and he treats me like a fragile egg. He doesn't treat me like I'm weak but he protects me. Randy didn't ask if I slept well or if I had eaten or if I was doing alright. It was all about Randy. But KB didn't go a night without calling me and every day before we went school, he'd look through his window and call my attention by saying 'Hey princess.' I had never gone out with any guy that treated me like he did, I have never felt about any guy how I felt about KB."What are you thinking about?" KB asked. He'd been singing a song to me and I guess I just blanked. "I was thinking about you." I said and walked over to where he w

Korede's POV"Emma!" I yelled but she didn't turn round to look at me. I knew she heard because some people signaled her that I was calling her.She'd been ignoring for over two days. The last time I'd spoken to her was the day when we spoke at the window.I stopped calling her. Because at this point, I knew she wasn't going to talk to me. I just wonder what I did wrong.When I finally got inside the school building, I spotted her by her locker and walked to where she was standing."Can I have a valid explanation as to why you have been ignoring me?" I said when I got to where she was standing.She turned around with a cross look on her face, she looked pure pissed."Leave me alone, KB." She said softly but with a lot of anger."Not until you tell me what's going on?" I replied calmly.She sighed and groaned. "Fine. But we can't talk here."I nodded

Korede's POV"Emma, sometimes you act as though you still like him." I muttered even though I knew she'd hear me. "What's that supposed to mean?" She asked. "You defend him everytime something about this comes up. He came at me with a punch first and you say it's because he's hurt." I said with anger."KB, I am not taking his side. I am just looking at things from his point of view." She argued. I wondered if she knew how weird she sounded. "You know what Emma, I have to rest. I'll talk to you tomorrow." I said and closed my window before she could respond.I went to bed that night and I found it hard to sleep. I felt like I needed to talk to someone. So I went online to check if Di'ja would be online. To my luck, she was. KB: HeyDi'ja: What's up? How are you??KB: I am not fine. Had a fight with my girlfriend.Di'ja: ☹️ what ha

But I sort of had an idea. It had to be Kyle and Linda. No one else could have done it."My brother is very strong and he'll come out of it." He said but the look in his eyes told me that he found what he said hard to believe.Mrs. Bello was a mess. She wasn't eating or sleeping anymore. It was almost like she'd lost her will to live.She spent most of her time talking to KB's unconscious body because she really believed he could hear her.
