All Chapters of Self-Love: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Joanna's POV "Thank GOD it's Friday!" Harmony yelled in a sing-song voice, that shattered my earbuds. "Dude! you're destroying my hearing capacity." I scowled while I rubbed at them in a bid to reduce the impact of his horrible tone. "What's with you bitch?" He questioned. "Why are you acting all grumpy this early morning, mother nature still disturbing you?" "Nah." I shook my head in reply. "It's just lack of sleep." "Why, did you have hot wild sex last night?" He wiggled his eyebrows. "I don't even know the reason." I shrugged. "And eeew, who the hell on GOD's green earth has sex during their monthly flow." "Well, since you denied it, place a smile on that pretty ass face of yours and dance with me," He spoke before he swayed his hips from left to right. I chuckled at his silly ways and joined him in singing. "Thank GOD i

Joanna's POV What's in there? I asked after I shut the door behind her. "Alcohol, nails, different colors of nail polishes, oh wait, all colors, 5 packets of pure bliss, 5 packets of that milky popcorn they sell at that junction which you love, strawberry and vanilla ice-cream and some clothes to exchange with you," She blurted all in one breath as she dumped the bag in the middle of the living room. "Wow!" I laughed after which I stared at her, dumbfounded that she actually brought all this just for a sleepover. "You really planned this" "Yep, I've been planning this for actually a week now which is why I didn't let you back out of it as I was sure you were about to," She spoke and gave me a knowing look. I rolled my eyes at her perky attitude and started unloading her duffel bag. "Why is this place so quiet? She questioned as she took note of the silence. "

Joanna's POV I walked straight to my locker where I met with a very energetic Harmony. "Hey bestie!" He grinned. "Hy dearie," I greeted and hugged him. "Guess what! Guess what!" He squealed. My smile immediately dropped as I knew what he was about to tell me. "Let me guess, Tenda's dating Tony." I sighed. He stilled, when he noticed the sadness in my eyes. "Babe, what's the problem" "I--, I stopped short when I noticed Tenda and Tony as they walked towards us with Ifeanyi and Blake in tow. "You know what? meet me after school at the gate let's go and talk somewhere." I blurted before they reached us. "Okay bestie, you know I gat you right? He said with a  smile. "I know boo," I replied, followed with a sad smile. "Now give me a real s

Joanna's POV Monday went by with unexpected events and weird feelings. So I was back at the hallway of doom (school hallway) on tuesday where I walked in the direction of my locker and spotted Tenda who already awaited me as she leaned on it with eyes trained on her phone's screen. "Hey my bitch." I greeted and gave her a hug. "Hey baby, how you? She asked me, followed by a peck on my cheek. "Been better." I shrugged, after which she threw an arm over my shoulder which was easy for her, as other girls would have struggled because I'm kind of tall for a girl but luckily for her, she was the same height as me. "So, how was your---. I stopped mid sentence as she suddenly abandoned me and took off in the direction of something, or should I say someone, a certain someone named Tony who walked in our direction with the other two dudes in tow. "Hey

Joanna's POV As we strolled around I felt like I was being watched or followed, even when we purchased our ice-creams I could've sworn I saw a shadow swish past me. "Elvis? let's go find mom and dad," I blurted as I shivered slightly. "Why? He questioned confused. "We haven't even tasted our ice-cream yet" "Okay then." I nodded. While I licked my Ice-cream I suddenly heard footsteps followed by a slightly familiar voice.  "Watsup bro," The voice spoke to which I groaned internally and silently prayed it wasn't who I thought it was. "Frank my man how you? Elvis smirked, his eyes on someone behind me.  Oh no, please let it be another Frank, please GOD please. I silently prayed. "I'm good bro." The voice said, followed by someone who came into view and did that weird handsh
