Chapter Twenty One

                                ~Fola~ Friday afternoon and I found myself walking towards the classroom where the literary and Debate club activities was going on. I had managed not to attend any of the meetings during the first term but now, I was walking towards the classroom. It wasn't because I was actually interested in the club activities.  Deep down, I was actually interested but it was already late, we were in second term already and our finals was going to start very soon.  I was actually attending the meeting because I had to get away from Tobi. He was slowly growing on me..  He's already grown on you. &

Chapter Twenty Two

                                   ~Leke~ I've not not exactly spoken to Moji since that last time in the car and even though, we journeyed to and fro to school in the same car, I kept to myself and she did exactly that too.  And during those times, I felt less guilty whenever I was with Peju.  But that still doesn't mean that I did not think about her every single day.  I do and it was becoming excruciating hard to keep my hands to myself, especially when she was always wearing those short excuse of knickers around the compound.  Someone opened the door of the unused class that I was

Chapter Twenty Three

                                 ~Moji~ Not long after Fola left the class for the library, I closed the stupid color book that I was painting too. I did not even understand why I was painting it in the first place. My siblings self stopped painting in color books already. I glanced back to see that Tobi wasn't in class and I subconsciously glanced at Leke too. He was engrossed with something in his notebook and I smiled at how his brows furrowed in concentration. He looked so handsome. Where did that come from?  Where did that come from?  He looked up at that moment and his eyes met mine, a look cou

Chapter Twenty Four

                                  ~Fola~   I did not go down for dinner. And that was the first time since forever. I knew I should go because mom was going to be worried but I just couldn't bring myself to. I kept thinking of Moji, of her expression when she saw us, of her sniffles and her curled up figure in the school clinic. And I couldn't get over the fact that I did that to her.  I felt so bad.  And still, a part of me was reliving the sensation of been kissed, the sweet sensation and the butterflies at the pit

Twenty Five

                                    ~Fola~ Moji did not say a word to me and she ignored me too, acting like I wasn't even beside her. She disappeared to God knows where during lunch break and even though, I did not exactly plan on going to the cafeteria too, I was still kind of hurt, though I brought it upon myself and I deserve everything and anything. But I was still desperate to talk to her. Fine, she has every right to be angry at me but I also had to apologize so when she left the class when we had a free period, I found myself following her after some minutes.  I loitered around the school premises because I had missed her. I did not know where she disappeared to or what class she entered and I had to lie to the teachers that asked me where I was going. I was about g

Chapter Twenty Six

                                  ~Moji~ I walked into the main house in a daze. I still couldn't believe the conversation I had with Fola. I couldn't believe what she had concluded on. I'd never say something like that. She should have known that I'd never say something like that but the fact that she believed it was hurting me. And the fact that she must be going to extreme pain because she believed it was hurting me more. "Eku Ile Ma." I greeted mom who was watching a movie on the TV and my two siblings immediately stood up from where they sat to hug me. My legs, literally because that's where their height

Chapter Twenty Seven

                               ~Leke~ Tobi told me everything. From him liking Fola, to confessing his feelings to her, to her turning him down, to him kissing her, to Moji walking in on them, to Moji getting all angry, to Moji finally telling him that she likes him and blah blah blah.  I found myself skipping school the next day, not like I needed permission from anyone. There was no one to even get the permission from. My parents weren't home and it wasn't like I'd ask for permission from the maids.  I did not actually have a reason for skipping school but deep down, I knew I'd end up going to Moji's house and that was exactly what I did. The gateman allowed me

Twenty Eight

                                  ~Fola~ I was worried about Moji. I was very, very worried. But I kept it all to myself. I avoided Tobi like a plague, kept to myself during classes, disappeared during lunch breaks. I basically acted invisible and even though my therapists had always warned me against acting like that, I liked it.  For the two days Moji skipped school, I'd bring out my phone, start to call her before pressing the end button, start to type a message to her before clearing it all. I wanted to ask her how she was fairing but I still couldn't get her words out of my brain. The but Fola just kept repeating itself in my head over me over again.

Chapter Twenty Nine

                               ~Leke~ I was in Moji's house. Well, I found spending more time with her these days which might end up becoming a recipe for disaster but I actually don't mind risking that only if it just means spending more time with her. We were currently outside the main house but still in the compound and we both sat on the high table that was in the compound, a table that I've always wondered about what it was used for. Moji was typing away on her phone and she'd burst into occasionally, throwing her head back and it was obvious that she was enjoying herself. I don't have any problem with her enjoying herself. I just have a problem with her enjoying hers

Chapter Thirty

                                 ~Moji~ I've had my first kiss. And I don't even know what to say or think. I've always fancied my first kiss to be  romantic and all. I've never actually thought that it won't be a real kiss. A kiss on the lips. I never thought it would be a kiss on my neck and earlobes. And to say I loved it would even be an understatement. I kept replaying the scene in my head, how his tongue had trailed from my neck to my earlobes and how much I had loved that moment.
