LOGINMorgan watched frantically between Isere and Ejiro who had bland expression on each others faces. Ejiro shook her head before turning to go back to her bed.
Ejiro just knew her spirit didn't go with Morgan, so she did not want Morgan to interfere between Isere and her issue.
Morgan yawned seeing that Ejiro had just walked out, she was starting to get irritated by Ejiro's attitude and wanted Ejiro to step on her foot so that she could put her in her place.
Small small children of nowadays, she hissed within her. (Children of now adays)
"Morgan, please my phone?" Isere asked Morgan. Morgan looked at her trying to think; she was trying to recall if Isere had given her her phone to keep. "You gave me your phone?" Morgan asked her confused.
Isere looked at her with a confused expression on her face before replying her, "Yes, when i was about to dance and you were giving daddy Bobby a lap dance," she told her
Ejiro ear flared up as she heard that, Daddy Bobby, wonders shall never end. Ejiro had spoken those words within her shaking her head.
"Ohhh," Morgan recalled, "That touchlight phone abi?" Morgan asked her before searching her bag for the phone.
Morgan brought out the phone from a pink purse before giving them to her, "I didn't know it was a phone that was inside my purse o, i thought it was a calculator," Morgan words had pierced through deep into Isere's heart as her stomach tightened. She didn't like the way Morgan had spoken to her and her words came out rude.
Ejiro wanted to interfere but she didn't want anything that would involve her with Morgan. Isere decided to scratch those words and try to go talk to Ejiro and tell her she'd be sure to get her back her wig.
Morgan got rid of her clothings as she needed a bath, she wrapped herself in her white towel and carried her necessary materials to the bathroom.
Isere walked to Ejiro's bed, gently taking a sit on her bed, Ejiro dropped down her phone staring at Isere. "You see the girl that you want to be friend with at all means, she doesn't regard you nor care about you." Ejiro spat out.
Isere sighed, she didn't want to hear anything regarding Morgan now, "I'm so sorry Eji, i will make sure i get your wig back." She pouted.
Ejiro sighed, "Do you even know where the guy that took you home reside?" Ejiro asked her.
Isere nods her head, "I don't know his address but he is a student of this school, a 400 level law student at this university," Isere told her.
Ejiro raised her brows up, "Okay then, we will find him, even if it will take time, we will go to his department when we have time and ask for him, what's his name again?" Ejiro ask her.
"Kelvin," Isere told her.
***********************************
"Please don't eat the last coconut na," Isere begged Ejiro. They were sitting on the cold tiled floor with their leg crossed in an Indian style, eating garri. ( Cassave flakes)
They had bought coconut to eat with it, It was Ejiro's idea and Isere loved it. She has never ate garri and coconut before. She has eaten garri, sugar and groundnut before but never with coconut.
Suddenly her phone rang, she stretched her hands, picking them from her bed. She thought it was her mother calling because her mother had made it a duty, to call her daily and always reminded her to pray and read her Bible and also to make sure her heads were covered too. Her mother also told her to stay away from boys and to make sure she is holy for her body is the temple of the Lord.
Isere did none of them, as she'd rather borrow Ejiro's phone and log into her facebook account or Instagram.
There was no name, who could the caller be? She thought to herself.
"Hello," she spoke as soon as she answered the call.
" Hey, it's Kelvin," the caller spoke.
Isere heart skipped when she heard the name, she didn't know why but hearing the voice had sent some strange feeling in the pit of her belly."Who is it?" Ejiro mouthed to Isere.
"Kelvin," Isere mouthed back to Ejiro before clearing her throat and speaking."Hi Kelvin."
"How are you?" He asked her.
"I'm good and you?" She retorted
"I'm great." He told her. He was about to speak again when Isere cuts him off.
"Did you perhaps see the wig i wore yesterday?" She asked him.
"Oh, yes, I forgot to give it to you, i will return it tomorrow."
A smile crept up to Isere's face, she was glad that the wig was at Kevin's place.
Kelvin told her, he'd come return it tomorrow, she didn't know why she felt warmth in her stomach, she was anticipating to see his face again. After they talked a bit, he reminded her to save his number, he ended the call.
Ejiro raised her brows as soon as Isere was done with the phone call, "This one that you are blushing, tsk tsk tsk, the boy must be really fine and kind oo," Ejiro sang sarcastically making Isere frown.
Isere hissed, "He is coming with your wig tomorrow."
Morgan had left as soon as she took her bath without telling them where she was going to and they didn't ask either. She wasn't in the same department as they were. She was in the faculty of education while they were in the faculty of health.

After coming back from church, Isere plumped on her bed as Ejiro did the same. They were both tired, as they had to wait for the youth meeting for a programme they had both volunteered for. Isere didn't want to but Ejiro had made her to; Ejiro attended redeem christian church of God and had made Isere attend her church too.
When Isere mother had asked her what church she was attending the first Sunday she had first resumed, she had told her mother, she couldn't find a deeper life church that was near. Her mother had told her to look around and make sure she attended one, and if possible, get the phone number of their pastor.
It irritated her that her mother still found way to make her annoyed even when afar. Her phone rang bringing her out of her reverie, she looked at the caller ID, it was Kelvin.
She didn't know how a smile crept to her face as she pressed the answer button. "Hey," she spoke, her voice soft and low.
"Hi, i'm in front of your hostel, kindly come down please," he told her and she ended the call.
Isere and Ejiro make their way to look for kelvin, Isere used her eyes to find Kevin's car. She suddenly saw a hand waving her, she recognised the person to be Kelvin. He was standing at the passenger side of a Toyota Highlander Jeep.
She furrowed her brows, this wasn't the car he had used yesterday. Ejiro shook Isere asking her if he was the guy and Isere nodded her head confirming it.
Ejiro admired the guy, he was real neat and fine just as Isere confirmed. Kelvin was dressed in a black denim jean and a black tank top with a brown leather jacket. He wore a black all star, looking dashing. Isere couldn't help but admire him.
He smiled as soon as he saw Isere, he opened the car and brought out a black polythene bag. "Hey," Isere greeted as soon as she was in front of him.
"Hi," he greeted back, revealing his dimple and pearly white teeth's. Isere eyes flicked over his lips, she licked her lips softly before clearing her throats.
"Meet my roomate, Ejiro," she Introduced Ejiro. "And also her best friend oo," Ejiro butted in making Isere laugh.
"When did i announce you are my best friend?" Isere retorted
"Asides me, who else do you know?" Ejiro's asked her. "I know Morgan, i know Sade and i also know..." Ejiro cuts her off.
"Blah blah blah, do you hang out with them the same way you hang out with me?" Ejiro retorted and they both laughed at their childishness.
"Pardon us," Isere told Kelvin.
"It's no problem, i find it rather nice seeing the way you both associate," he said.
"Ejiro, meet Kelvin," Isere introduced.
Kelvin gives Isere the polythene bag, she took it from him and brought out the wig, she was relieved. "Thanks so much for the day before yesterday night and today, God bless you." She said.
He smiled, "No problem."
As soon as Isere got back to her hostel room with Ejiro, she received a text from Kelvin, "would it be possible for me to see you tomorrow evening?"
Isere came out of the shower wearing Kelvin's white button shirt which stopped on her mid thigh. She watched Kelvin who was busy typing on his phone with admiration.When she recalled the fact she was pregnant, she became nervous, she thought of how to tell him and she imagined his reaction in a not so good way.She heaved a sigh as she made advances towards him. "I have to go now, my parents would soon be worried," Isere said, her voice came out low and that bothered Kelvin."Are you okay? Is there something you are not telling me?" Kelvin asked. He was concerned and worried."Kate, you had something to tell me, what is it?" He asked her, looking deep into her eyes.He couldn't understand her
Kelvin waited for Isere whilst tracing her movement on his phone. He missed her a lot and wanted to wrap his arms around her. He was thinking of what he'd do when he sees her first and the thought of seeing her face sent shivers down his spine.He didn't know that four weeks of staying away from her would do him bad.My drama queen?: I am here, now come and pick me!Kelvin chuckled lightly when he saw her message, she liked being bossy and it made him laugh whenever she acted bossy.Kelvin: Do you have to shout when you can bite??My drama queen ?: I'm so going to smack your head when I see you, so kindly help me already.Kelvin replied her while making his way outside to go get her.He was glad the guys went out as he needed some time with her before they return.
Its been one week since the incident between Isere and her parents; at first it was kind of awkward between them all as no one said nothing to each other.Isere's parents spoke to each other first before inviting Isere to join them and they all spoke. They spoke to the extent of deciding to let Isere take her path and do what she wanted as a means of correcting their past mistakes.The next day, Isere mother had asked Isere to follow her to the market to get groceries and in an polite manner which took Isere by shock.The family has been trying to bond and correcting past mistakes by watching programmes other than news together; Isere was shocked and was taken aback when she saw her mother tune the station to African magic.Her parents never brought up the topic regarding her pregnancy and who the father was although she knew they'd ask her soon.She hasn't been forced to do anything and h
Isere swallowed the lump in her throat when she was asked the question regarding the real father of her child. She wasn't expecting pastor Fredrick to catch her so easily.She was stunned as she bit her bottom lips, thinking of what to say next.She was still in awe of her mother's past and how notorious her mother was. Never has she pictures her mother in that way before.She felt hurt that she had to suffer for her mother's past mistake, she felt hurt that they had used the wrong ways to train her although they had the right reasons at heart.She was glad she had pulled this stunt or else, she'd be thinking of the consequences of getting an unexpected pregnancy and continue to suffer as usual."I am disappointed!" Isere deadpanned."All my life, I was deprived from everything. I neither had a mother to talk to me in a loving manner and a father to tease and listen
The room was silent, pastor Fredrick, pastor Mrs Williams, Isere, Isere's father all turned to look at Isere's mother as she began to speak."I was scared pastor, I only did that to prevent the past from repeating itself. I was scared my past would hunt me so I decided to do all I can do prevent it," Isere's mother spoke."By locking me in the house and beating me for saying certain words?!" Isere scoffed."Katherine, she is your mother, have some respect for her," Pastor Fredrick said to Isere. Isere kept mute as let her mother continued."I am a victim of God's grace and love and if not, maybe I might be in hell for my treacherous and immoral ways.""Interesting," Isere muttered with s
"Head pastor, welcome," Mr and Mrs Osagbai greeted.The head pastor Mr Fredrick was shocked to see the tension in the room , he stared at all the people in the room confused and wondered what had happened."Peace be unto you all," he finally said. He took a seat and prayed for some seconds before asking what the situation was about."The past has repeated itself again!" Isere mother cried out, tears rolling down her cheek as she paced around the room."What is going on?" Pastor Fredrick asked."Pastor, you won't believe what I am about to tell you, the church name has been tainted by those who the youths look up to," Mrs Williams spoke confusing Pastor Fredrick."What is happening?" Pastor Fredrick asked, he didn't understand what she just said."Katherine here is pregnant and for no one else but her father!" Mrs Williams spat out."Jesus
