-Stella-
"Hey, I meant what I said, I do not trust you," I said to Terry as he continued to drive.
"Please Mr. Terry, tell me where we are going to," I said to him once more.
"We have reached," Terry said to me as he came out of the car.
"Where are you going? I am not supposed to be here you know" I said to Terry as he walks with his body built like a god into a building that looked like a restaurant.
"Don't forget that I am still here," I said to him.
"Wait, shouldn't I be with him right now," I said to myself and then I opened the door of the car and walked towards the building which he had entered.
finally, I can see him and I ran to meet up with him.
Boom! I hit into a guy and we both fell to the ground staring at each other with me on him.
"I know what you are thinking, this is the part where I meet the guy and then we both fall in love after we stumble at each other but I am not going to make this any romantic, rather I will be all harsh and powerful," I said in my thought staring at the hot dude.
"What the fuck is wrong with you," I said to the stranger acting up
"Excuse me... You are the one that hit me and you are still the same person shouting at me," The stranger said to me and I looked at the crowd that was already gathering.
So I turned and I walked away ignoring the remaining words that filthy ignorant rascal was saying behind my back.
"He does not even know who he was talking to if he would have known, maybe he would have been lying down on the floor in front of me and begging that I do not remember his cute face," I said in my thoughts as I walked away.
"Wait up," I said in an audible tone and suddenly he stopped and was talking to someone else.
The person looks matured though.
no...
The person is incredibly handsome... Shit!
I wonder who is that hot guy he is talking to? "Sometimes I just want to be a guy... like I don't get why some people are so handsome in this world," I said to myself about to beg God for a transformation.
Finally, I had reached where he was, he turns and gives me a surprised look and I am guessing he was not expecting me to come... But too bad for him... I'm here.
His friend too keeps silent and then they were silence between us, I stared at him trying to understand why he's now speechless, but I could not figure it out.
"Uh, meet Stella and Stella meet James," Terry says in the speechless midst.
"Hi, nice to meet you," James who is Terrys' friend says as he stretches his right hand out for a shake.
I brought out my hand and then I shake him feeling manly.
James seems to still hold my hand in a funny way, he then smiles and then releases my hands.
"Oh, what a weirdo," I said in my mind.
"So we just need two," Terry says to his friend and I wonder what he is talking about right now.
His friends walk into a room after saying "just have a little patience, I will be with you shortly" and then after some few minutes of standing and staring at where he had gotten into.
He comes out with what I really know and love, in his hands were two ice cream buckets, one strawberry, and the other one chocolate.
"Let me help you with this," I said to Terry who I can see clearly in his eyes that if I don't collect this ice cream from his hands... I might get to have nothing.
I collected both the ice cream mini buckets and he stands to stare at me, I just hope he is not calling me local or savage in his mind.
Because right now, I am pretty much savage that I can't even believe I just collected the two ice cream he just bought and at the same time... I am too hungry to let him have even one.
Bitch!
"Sorry, you can have one," I said to him as I touch his chest to make him feel less disappointed in me or something like that.
I handed over the chocolate flavored ice cream to him, "Why are you been quiet all of a sudden," I said to him a bit confused.
"I had bought the two flavors for both of us" Terry replied to me.
"Oh, I thought you wanted to lick both of them alone," I said to him with one eye opened and one eye closed feeling awkward.
"It's okay, the chocolate flavor is actually for me," Terry said to me as he walked straight up pass me.
"Wait up, where are you going to again," I said to him licking a little from my ice cream bucket.
"Follow me," Terry said back to me and I followed him to the car but on my way again, I saw the guy I had bumped into, I give him the looks of a very noble lady who was assaulted by some servant guy.
Smiles filled my face as I passed him by, he must feel like beating me up but he cants because Terry would tear him apart.
"Walk faster," Terry said from behind me and I tried my best to keep up with his manly long legs.
Finally, We have reached his car, I got into it while still holding my strawberry ice cream in my left hand.
"There's a beach, not so far from here," Terry says to me smiling.
"Wait... Do you mean the Congo beach," I said to him in surprise?
"How come you seem to be excited about it?" he asked me.
"I know a lot about the Congo beach, It is known to have a lot of coconut trees, beautiful flowers and is suspected to be the home of mermaids," I said to him.
"Wow, it seems you really love this island beach."
"I don't know it though I only wanted to go there, my dad refused me from doing it," I said to him and continued with my thoughts in my mind... At first, I thought he was just not a fun person, but I later understood that he actually did believe mermaids exist" I replied to Terry.
"Well, we are almost there, let us find out for ourselves when we reach there.
I hope we get to see or find something special, that would make today fun," Terry said to me.
"Yeah, true talk" I replied to him, just to hear a storming three words.
"You know, I do like you" He says out.
-Stella-They were holding hands and playing, I turned back and my eyes met with that of Terry.He looks at me and I can see his mood changing, it carried the worried looks, I ran to him and held his hands to run away, He follows me as I take the lead.We both hid behind a very huge tree peeping at Elvis and Stanley as they walked by.Terry was covering me who was peeping out to see what these two people were doing."Oh my God, they are kissing," I said in an inaudible voice with hurt burning through me, but Terry heard me and he stretched his neck out to peep.He walks away from the tree and heads towards them.I ran and I held his hand, "Terry, don't interfere" I said to him trying to make him back out as I controlled my feelings."I know you like him, you should not let him hurt you like this" Terry says to me as he tries

-Stella-He Kissed me with his lips as sweet as strawberries, wait did he secretly buy strawberry ice cream without me knowing" I said to myself in between the kiss.He lifts me up and deepens his kiss with a strong hold on me" I love you Stella" he gasps in between his beautiful kiss as his hands were tracing themselves to the hidden restrictedpart of my body.I push his hands away and I held them."I don't want to do this," I said to him and he looks into my eyes with so much beauty in his sight."Okay, can we go now?" He asked."Yeah, let us go," I said to him as we walked back towards the car and afterward drove off.The question that still runs in my head is why did I kiss him back? why did I let him kiss me? all this question were burning into my mind as he drove off.Soon afterward we had reached my house, It was alrea
-Stella-He Jumped up from me, that must be your dad" he says to me about to freak out,"No way... My dad does not come home by this time, except" I said to him pausing in my sentence,"Except what?" he asked me in a heist," except it is my mum, she told my dad she was going to come," I said to him biting my lips,"Wait, so you knew your mum might come or not but you still let me into your house... How smart?" he said to me scratching through his hair,"You are indirectly calling me dump... Are You?" I asked him,"No love, you were supposed to have avoided all this, you know this could make your mum feel less comfortable," he said to me standing,"I don't care what she thinks" I replied to him standing up as well,"just stay here, let me go check it out," I said to him as I wore my silk gown and I walked
-Stella-"Mum..." she looks at us with shock all over her, she did not expect to see me smooching with a guy.I guess she thinks poor of me now, I release myself from Terrys hold."This is my boyfriend," I said."Oh well, I don't believe your dad would let you have a boyfriend immediately you turned eighteen years old," Lucy says to me."I think your dad needs to come upstairs, so I could set things straight," she says to me as she raised her phone up about to call my dad."Wait... Okay, I haven't told dad yet," I said to her."What? you haven't told your dad, you now have a boyfriend?" she says in her hot motherly posture."Yes, I haven't, could you just stop acting like you care about me... When we both know clearly that you don't.""Okay... Ouch." Lucy says in between and then conti
-Stella-I rushed downstairs and I see someone I do not want to see.My own dad with Terry's car keys on his hands."So dad, that belongs to me" I say to him."When did you start having car keys?" He asked me with his face a bit worried."Dad, my girlfriend left them with me," I said to him obviously lying to him."well, you do not have a girlfriend, and I know this because you have never had friends... Because of your rich personality," he says, rolling his eyes."Just return this keys to whoever owns them, okay, don't get yourself into trouble just so that you can feel powerful," he says to me as he stretches his hands out for me to take the keys from him.I collected the keys and waited for him to go back into his room... When he was now totally gone.I walked out from the mansion towards where
"Elvis" I called out in shock.He looks at me and stretched his hand to hold me, I lean backyards about to shut the door... But then he uses his hands to place in between the door."What do you want from me?" I ask him as I tried to force his hand out so that I could lock the door."We need to talk Stella, all is not as it seems to be," he says to me sounding emotional."I have had enough of today, I am so tired... For the past three days, I have been going through a lot," I said to him."I'm in trouble Stella, you have got to help me out" he says to me."Well you can keep that trouble to yourself alone because you are no longer my friend from today onwards," I said to him with tears already in my eyes."Your friend told me that she had evidence concerning my dad and that the evidence she has could send my dad to prison." He says.
-Stella-It is already morning now and I just woke up with many things to do today, at first I will have to go shopping, later visit my friend Terry so that I could get more information about him.I can't believe that I even let him kiss me last time, I guess I wanted his touch.Then I sat on my bed trying to reflect back into the problems of my past, just so I will know how I could fix them in today.The only person I can think about is terry, I think my mind has clung to him now.I picked up a paper and wrote on the piece of paper, Terry had used to write a letter yesterday.At the free blank space, I wrote things I have to know about Terry and the first one started with.One! Try to know how old he is? Because seriously... It would be wrong if I discover that he is about forty years old, or so.Then I laughed.
Anu and Rona had long done their convocation.Timi and I were no longer together, he cheated on me.It seemed his play boy nature came crawling back.I thought I could manage, I mean, some years ago, I always told myself that if my boyfriend cheats on me, I wouldn't break up with him but please, it's easier said than done.I focused on school's work, this was my final year, I wouldn't let a man make me mess up in school.I continued my going to club, hanging out with different guys.....dating different guys actually.It was like my old self had come back.Though it wasn't entirely as before when I was always being mean to people, I just resumed being my old social self.Life was better without Timi.-Convocation without Timi.He's just
"Olivia, Jennifer" I called out.We walked into the room, nobody was there, Aisha entered the bathroom."oh my......" She screamed.Debra and I rushed into the bathroom"Jesus""oh my God" .Timi came towards us"what happened?"We didn't need to answer because he could see Olivia on the floor, blood all over."this is what I was talking about. This was what I meant by a dangerous game....... Is she dead?"Aisha cried.Debra bent to feel her pulse and all" I don't know... I c-can't tell" it looked like she was terribly scared.Her expression seemed blank and the last time Debra had a face like this, she awfully cried her eyes out that day , that was like years ago, the last time I saw her cry: the first time her mom disowned her.But I doubted if she would actually
"I didn't expect you'd come" I tell Timi."I'll assume Cora told her boyfriend about today and you people na decided to come and why on Earth would you guys wear an agbada to an orphanage"Aisha sighed.Yeah, they were both on this blue 'agbadas' looking as fresh as ever.Timi explained"no we didn't wear it to go with you guys, we are actually going to a colleague's wedding, we just came to drop some few things""you both look silly" Aisha rolled her eyes. It seems she had her monthly visitor because she was always with the attitude whenever she's on it."what things?" Debra asked Timi. Before he could answer, she walked over to their car, looked in it."A fine big bag, a carton of indomie, some other fine bags and ohh, a bag of rice" She called out.We turned to the guys to give an explanati
"Yeah" I buried myself in his arms."Hey Rona" She smiled at me."Guy, I hope you both had fun?" Timi asked as he placed his hand on Jude's shoulder. His Eternite
"If anything happens, blame it on yourself and besides you said you'd go drop me off?" I asked."yeah, we'll go back to our place now, get dressed and I'll take you to whatever cinema and when you’re done, I'll come with Rona to pick you off and then take you back to hostel" he smiled."you are creepy" I say to him.He and Emeka gave themselves slapping handshakes laughing.We got back to Emeka's place, I went to wear something simple, no need to stress it, I had no intention of impressing Jude.Coming out, Emeka nodded at me in admiration but Timi frowned and asked me to go change the dress."the clothe is okay na, it's a fine dress" Emeka said."yeah, that's the problem, it's too fine and she's a fine girl... You suppose understand guy.... Sweetie, please wear something longer or anything"Chapter 152
" Dude, have you forgotten? I d-don't smoke " Timi instantly say to him."Ohh, true... yeah yeah, I forgot, my bad " his friend quickly answered.I had seen Timi smoke some couple of times.Well, many of my friends did smoke.The girls and I have all tried it several times, my elder brother Daniel once caught us and was really mad at us. He made us wash all the cars in our compound.We decided it wasn't good for us and we vowed never to do it again.I remember the time I saw Timi smoking and I gave him serious warning to stop it.Rona came into the living room, beret on her head."You all are still up? I just came here to get water from the fridge "She got her water and came to sit with us.We all become awkwardly quiet."Wow Timi, you can really make hair " sh
" because shouting is all you need to get sense into that head of yours " she fired." you're sick Deb, you need to see a doctor or something! "" no, you are the mentally deranged person here " she pushed her plate away making it break into pieces." What if Olivia has been right all these while, life isn't all about insults and aggression, can't you just take a chill pill and grow up ..... Besides, I don't even know what I did here "" she took Jude, she took Derrick and she's probably aiming at Timi and when she gets him, if you come crying to me, your own don done " she barked." and don't you ever in your life tell me to grow up because you are the one person that really needs to grow up "" whatever " I waved her off. I didn't like fighting with her but she's being stupid." whatever fire you there! " she gave me her five fingers 'waka'
" it's fine Olivia, I have forgiven you " I tell her.I could see Rona's face lit up at the word 'forgiven'." honestly Olivia, I've also missed you and the way things used to be "" me too and that's the reason I came here, I came to put things in order... You've always had a nice heart right from time and I know it wouldn't be hard for you to welcome me back but you see Aisha... Not even Aisha, Deborah in particular ehn " she laughed" calling her Deborah is even a crime " I joined her laughing." I know right " even Anu and Rona giggled.We were quiet for a while." remember that time your mom gave you custard to school? " she smirked.She didn't even need to say much, I almost fell down laughing." what happened to your custard? " Rona asked unamused.<
" oga chill, don't transfer aggression on me, we all know you are pained because Benita dumped you for Timi.... You sef, it's because you are not trying hard for her " she munched." please and please, it would be nice if you'll shut up"no honestly, it's obvious you still love her and as you're seeing me, I'm badly in love with Timi " she smirked" what exactly is your problem, look at you pregnant but still talking about loving another guy... Are you like psycho or something? " I yelled" so falling in love makes one psycho? Check again! " she still smirkedI stood up to leave "I'll leave you to your issues, I just came to check on you, bye."Wait " she called outFrowning I turned to look back, she was on her feet alread" I can help you " she said softly" why would I need your help?" I can help you get C
