Chapter 8

On Friday, I was kinda sad that I won't be seeing these peeps till Monday.
"I'm gone miss you guys. You people should read o", I said as the dropped me off at my house.

"No problem", Nicole said.
"I'll add you to our Whatsapp group so we can chat during the weekend"

"Okay. Have a great weekend, bye", I said and entered into the compound and up to my room. I didn't go to my mum's shop today because she was not around. She went to visit her aunt so I'm home alone. I don't like staying alone but thank goodness there is light today.

I went to my room to charge my phone. I decided to watch nickeledeon but it seems like our subscription has expired. Damn, these Gotv people are thieves. It hasn't even been long that we recharged it.
Oh well, I'll read instead.

I pick up my mathematics textbook and start solving some questions.

About 20 minutes later, my phone started ringing. Hmm, who could be calling? I answered it.

'Hey, wifey", I heard a voice.
Huh? I pull the phone from my ear and looked at it.

"Sorry, please who is this?"

"Ahn. Don't you remember me? The guy you are going to marry in 5 or 6 years"
Immediately, I knew who it was.

"Tyler, you idiot. Marry who?"

"Marry you na"

"You haven't even passed out from school and you are thinking of marriage. I'm shaking my head for you"

"That's why I said in the next 5 or 6 years"

"Whatever. By the way, how did you get my number?"

"Oh, I stole it from Becca's phone"

"Thief. Why did you call me"

"I just wanted to greet you and hear your voice".

I swear this guy is crazy but I'm still fangirling inside.

"Really? Is my voice that sweet?", I asked.

"Yeah, it sounds like a choir of angels singing"

"So you mean you have heard angels singing before?", I couldn't help but tease him.

"Stop being sarcastic and just accept my compliment", he said.

"Okay. Thanks for the compliment"

"You are welcome, babe. So what's up?", he asked.

"I'm fine". And that was how a lengthy conversation began. We talk about a lot of things ranging from our families to movies.

I checked the time and saw that we have been talking for 20 minutes.
"Tyler", I said. "It's seems you have lots of airtime oh. We've been talking for the past 20 minutes"

"Yeah. There's was no one to talk to so I decided to call you"

"Awwn. Thanks but I have to go and read. You should too"

"Oh, okay. Call me when you are through. Maybe we could exchange questions"

"Okay, cool. Later"

"Take care, babe", he said and ended the call.

It was really fun talking to him. That's the longest call I've ever received.
I thought about what he told me about his family, the Opara family. That family is super rich and from old money. It's a surprise he and Becca are humble and friendly. The rest of the crew are rich but not as rich as his family.

Enough thinking, back to reading.

One hour later, I close my books. My eyes were beginning to ache. I look at the time and see it's almost 6pm. My parents will soon be home. I warm up the soup and make semovita for them.

After that, I decided to call Tyler. I dial his number and hung up after the first ring.

What? Don't look at me like that. I don't have airtime, he'll call back.

Soon, my phone started ringing.

See, I told you.

I answered the call.
"Hi, sorry for flashing you. I don't have much airtime, that why", I said.

"No problem. I'll send you some later. I can't talk much right now. I'm kind of busy"

"Oh, okay. By the way, don't bother sending the airtime. I'll get some later"

'I'm still gonna send it", he said and ended the call.

Huh, that guy doesn't listen. I was kind of disappointed that we didn't get to talk much this time.
Two minutes later, I received a message. I checked it and saw I've been send airtime of one thousand naira by Tyler.

I said it, he never listens. I send him a message.
"Hi, thanks for the airtime but it's too much. I told you not to send it. I'm sure you have better things to do with that money"
I press send and waited for a reply.

Ping!
I check my phone.

"You are welcome, babe"
Ugh, that idiot. I'm gonna deal with him at school on Monday.

Soon, my parents came home. We all ate and went to bed.
The weekend was uneventful. Just read, helped my mum at the shops and chat with my friends on Whatsapp.

I can't wait to go back to school on Monday.

........

Chapter 7

The next day at school, I saw that Becca, Shola and Nicole were already got there first.

"Hey, girls", I greeted.

"Elizabeth, you are late o." Nicole said.

"I'm not that late na. It's not yet 7:30"

"Okay, I've heard"

"Okay, now that Elizabeth is here, I have gist for you guys", Becca said. " Richard asked me out"

"What?!", we all shouted.

I'm so shocked. I thought it was Pelumi and Nicole then Shola and Richard not Becca and Richard!

"Abeg, shift. Let me faint", Shola said. Funny girl.

" How? When? Where?", Nicole asked.
Me, I didn't even say anything.

"Well", Becca said. "He came over to my house yesterday. I thought he wanted to see Tyler but he said it's me he came to see, I was kinda surprised. We got talking about random stuff then suddenly, he just asked me out", we all screamed drawing the attention of some students that were in the class.

"So what was your answer?", I asked.

" I haven't given him a reply yet. I told him I'll think about it"

"Hmm, do you like him?"

"I kinda do"

"Okay oh. My advice is for you is that if you decide to date him, don't do rubbish o. No go carry belle. Education first"

"Okay, madam adviser"

"Becca", Shola said. "Elizabeth is right. Our education comes first. If he tries any nonsense, just tell us. We will teach him a very big lesson, he'll never forget"

"Thanks guys", Becca said. "Best friends ever. Including you, Elizabeth"

We all went for assembly and after that, Becca and I came back to our class. I looked around the class and noticed that Tyler wasn't around. Even Pelumi and Richard.

Huh, why am I even looking for him?

"I know you are looking for my brother", Becca said.

"No, I'm not.... Not really"

"I hear. Keep deceiving your self. Anyway, he will soon be here. He called me, he's going to be late"

"Called? Do they allow phones here?"

"Sure. Just don't use it while the class is on or it's bye bye to your phone"

"Wow, cool"
The door opened and Tyler and the rest came in.
Argh! He's coming towards my direction. I raised my hands to wave at me.

Huh? He just passed me, strange. He didn't even acknowledge me.

Oh, well. Why do I even care? We just met yesterday, it's not my business.
The first lesson teacher came and we got down to work.

Soon, it was fourth period which was a free period, thank goodness.
"Becca, I thought the first week is all about revision"

"Yeah but only for some subjects. You know WAEC exams are coming up.

"Yeah, true"

"Hey, girls", we heard Pelumi's voice. "What's up?"

"We're cool"
I could see Richard smiling shyly at Becca.

"Elizabeth", Tyler said. "Can I talk to you for a second?"

Huh, what does he want now? I stood up and followed him to his seat.

"Okay, what do you want to talk to me about?" I asked immediately I sat down.

"Look. I'm sorry about what happened this morning. I was just pissed off. I didn't mean to take it out on you"

"What even made you angry?"

"Well, as we were coming to school this morning. Some bus passed and splashed dirty water over my uniform. I had to go back home and change which made me late for school".

Is this guy for real?

"Ordinary water splash on you? You now vex"

"It's not ordinary water, it's dirty water"

"Okay o, I've heard. I guess I will be angry too if that happened to me".

"Thanks babe", Tyler said.

"See this one o. Who are you calling babe?"

"You are my babe na"

"Whatever", I said and we kept quiet.

"So, I heard my sister is now dating Richard", Tyler said breaking the silence.

"Not yet"

"I know but she will. I hope he doesn't try any rubbish cos if he does, I'm going to beat him to pulp".

"Yeah. Me, Shola and Nicole will also beat him if he tries that"

"Ehn? With which hand? This your small hand"

"I can still beat oh", I said and we both laughed.

"Come on, let's go join the rest", he said and we went back to where they were.

The rest of the day went quiet well. Becca accepted Richard and I think Tyler and I are now friends.
I also got another ride home.


..........
I hope this chapter went well. Sorry for any grammatical or spelling error. Cheers.

Chapter 6

By 6pm, we close up the shop and head home.

"Let's stop by the market to buy some ingredients to use cook", my mum says.

"Okay"

We stop by the market and buy ingredients for vegetable soup, my favorite.

As soon as we get home, we start cooking. Well, my mum cooked the soup while I made the Eba. By 7pm, we were done.

"Mummy, should I call daddy?", I ask.

"Why do you want to call him?",

"So I can know where he is"

"I'm sure he's already on his way", she says.

"But it's after 7 na"

"See, stop disturbing me. Why are you even asking me? You have your own phone. Call him if you like"

Well, I guess that's true. I go to the living room where I dropped my phone on one of the chairs. I turn it on. 30%, great not great.

I dial my dad's number and he picks after the first ring.

"Hello, daddy. Where are you?", I ask

"I'm already on our street", he replies.

"Okay, take care", I say and hang up.
"Mum, daddy says he's already on our street", I tell me mum who just came out of the kitchen.

"Didn't I tell you he's already on his way?", she asks.

"I know but I just called to confirm

"Confirm ko, confirm ni"

"Hey, I'm back", I hear my dad's voice as he enters the house.

"Daddy!", I shout and go hug him. "What did you buy?"

"Are you a baby that you are asking what he bought?", my mum asks.

"Adesua", my dad says. "You know it doesn't matter. Shell always be my baby girl. By the way, I bought suya"

"Yeah!", I shouted and collect the nylin whuch held the suya and his bag from him. I go keep the bag in his room.

By the time I come back, I see my parents hugging and my dad whispers something into my mum ears which makes her laugh. Bleh, parents.

"So, dad", I say while chewing on the suya, delicious. "Should I go on the gen? My bat3 is low".

"No", my mum answers. "Why is it every time that your phone is always low?"

Ohh, my mum just likes spoiling show.
"Mummy, it's not every time na. Please? Also, it's almost time for I am Frankie on nickelodeon". What? I love nickelodeon.

"Okay but you know too much of TV isn't good. I just want to to study well and pass your exams".

"I know, mummy. Don't worry. I'll study really hard. Trust me", I say and go give her her hug. I know that my parents always have my best interests at heart.

"What about me?", my dad says. "Don't I get a hug too?"

"Oh, I love you too, daddy", I say and hug him too. "Oya, let me go and turn on the gen"

I go to where the gen is and turn it on then I go inside and see my parents already eating. I charge my phone and go dish my food. After eating, I wash my plates and those of my parents.

By 10pm, I turn off the gen. We say our night prayers and I go to my room.

I decided to browse a little before I read. I turn on my data and check my messages on Whatsapp.
After that, I log in on Facebook. I see that I have 6 friend requests. I checked and saw it was it was from Becca and the others, even Tyler. I accepted all and start checking their profiles. I decided to check Tyler own last.

First thing first, his profile picture. Hmm, cutie. It has like one thousand like. If only facebook likes could be converted to dollars, some people would be millionaires by now.

Oh, well. Time to read. I log out and start reading
After reading to two hours, I decide to call it a day or is it night? Anyone.

I say my prayers and drift of to sleep.
I dreamt of someone.
Yeah, you know who he is.
Tyler.

Happy birthday. I wish you long life and prosperity

Hi, guys. Know that feeling you get when you've typed a whole chapter but then you accidentally delete it? Yeah, that's how I feel right now. So sorry I can't update again today. Will update tomorrow

Wow, I didn't even suspect Soma. Thanks for the update

This is to Doppelganger001 and Pweetymhi

Chapter 6

The rest of the day went on pretty well. I didn't encounter Tyler again until the close of school. Thank goodness.

Immediately the siren blare signalling closing time, I stand up and take my bag.

"Are you going home now?", Becca asked.

"Yeah. I need to get home then go to my mum's shop to help out"

"Cool. Which side are you going to?"

"Around mainland"

"Wait for me, let's go together. Our driver can drop you off"

"Oh no. There's no need"

"My friend, let's go"

"Okay, thanks". Wow, free ride. I get to save my money.

I look back and see Tyler coming towards us.
"Huh, Becca. Let's hurry up and go fine Shola and Nicole"

Without waiting for a reply, I drag her out of the class. Now, it's her turn to be dragged about. When the class is out of sight, I stop.

"I know it's because of my brother that you are rushing like this. Did he say anything stupid to you? Just tell me and I'll set him straight", Becca rushed out as soon as she stopped panting.

"No", I replied sharply. "Stop thinking rubbish jare. I just felt we should hurry up".

She looks at me narrowing her eyes but thankfully doesn't say anything more.
Why did I even run and why is my heart beating really fast? Stay focused, Elizabeth. No distractions. If I keep changing that, I might actually believe it.

We see Shola and Nicole outside their classroom.

" hey, babes. Elizabeth is following us today. Is Uncle Paul here yet?"

"Sure, he's in the parking lot", Nicole answers.

As usual, Becca leads the way as we head to the parking lot. I can already see students going home. Wow, this parking is really cool. Different cars although I don't know the brands but they are really beautiful.

Becca head towards a car and a man came out from the driver's side.

"Uncle Paul, Good afternoon", they greet.

"Awon big girls. How are you?", Uncle Paul asks. "Becca, this one that you are shining teeth like this ehn"

"Ahn ahn, it is not a crime to smile na. Anyway, this is our new friend, Elizabeth. She's following us today", Becca says pointing at me.

" Good afternoon, sir ", I greet.

"Sir ke. Call me Uncle Paul. Where are the boys?"

"I think they are still inside", Shola answers. "They might call uncle Kunle to pick them"

"Okay. Oya, enter the car, let's go"

We all get into the car and off we go. We kept on gisting throughout the ride. These girls are the bomb. I didn't have any close friends in my former school but this change is welcomed.

I gave directions to my house and in a few minutes, we've arrived. Thank God there was not much traffic.

"Thank you, uncle Paul. Bye, girls", I say as I get down from the car.

"Wait, give me your number", Nicole said.

" okay, 09021505075"

"Thanks, bye. Don't be late oo", Becca shouted.

"No worries. Take care"

I enter the house and go upstairs. I take my spare keys and open the door. I quickly change into casual clothes, eat my lunch, pick up my phone and go to my mum's shop.

"Good afternoon, mum", I greet my mum as soon as I sight her.

"My sweet daughter, my one and only", she says.

"Mummy, you and these your compliments. Don't let my head burst oo"

"Don't worry, it won't. How was school?"

"School was awesome. I really like the teachings and I made some new friends. You will like them"

"Ehn ehn. Oya, sit down and gist me", my mum says pointing to a chair. I sit down and start tell her all that happened excluding the conversation with you know who.

What can I say? My mum loves hearing stories. Don't ya wish your mama was cool like mine. Don't ya wish your mama was hot like mine. Don't ya.
