Alissia

No class today, glory be to God. Bimpe have been acting somehow since my encounter with Doris though, I don't know exactly what is her problem. Whatever happened out there on that day is my problem and whatever it might result to is my cross to carry, so why exactly is she acting like the whole earth has collasped? That, I don't know 🤷.

"So Bimpe, Mr. Tunde test we did of recent can you believe that man failed me?" I lamented.

"He did not just fail you now, it might continue that way if you keep hanging around that Tolu guy, it's like you don't know how much Doria is crushing on him." She said, Bimpe would always sympathize with me if anything whatsoever happens, why does she seem so scared of Doris? Her parents are rich as well, so what? I just don't know.

I heard a knock on the door and went to check on who was there, lo and behold TOLU, is this guy really going to keep stalking me? Memory of our last encounter came back and I suddenly became shy.

"Tolu, what are you doing here?" I asked but like always he just smiled and walked in, this guy is crazy or am I the only one who think so? I just followed him back in.

How long does it take a lady to get dressed cos according to what I remember, Bimpe was putting on a short and one useless top I always told her looks bad on her but now my people, she has a body con short dress on, as in when did she become flash 😂😂.

I noticed the bags in Tolu's hands, I tried to figure what they were but I couldn't.

"What are these?" I asked referring to the bags he is carrying while giving a plastic chair to sit.

"Gift for you" he said, ignoring the chair and sat on the floor, he unpacked the bags and you won't believe what he brought.

"Why would you bring these? Where am I meant to keep these? No fridge!" I complained. He looked round the room for a while and placed his palms over his mouth in realisation.

"I will get you a fridge, a small one that can be accepted by the school authorities but for now I will take them home and when you need em, I can get them for you" He said, I was staring at him like he was speaking Spanish, buy me a fridge? Take them home to his fridge? Have this guy gone insane?

"Are you sure you are thinking straight? I mean your parents will actually allow you put all these in their fridge without them complaining? I doubt it". Okay, have you ever said something and you get stared at like you are saying the most ridiculous thing? That eyes, that is exactly how Tolu is staring at me.

Bimpe already left if you might have been wondering, she left immediately he brought out the foods and talked about getting me a fridge, she stormed out actually.

Oh I forgot to fill you in about what he brought me, he brought me a full of well cooked efo riro, efo elegusi, stew, chicken and sauce, Apon(Ogbono), Beans, ewedu, Fish soup. I took out of the Apon for eaty and he will be taking the rest home, oh God don't you just work on mysterious ways? Bringing this guy my way is the biggest things so far, I hooe and pray nothing comes between our friendship. I'm starting to like every damn thing about him.

Two hours after Tolu left 

My phone started blaring over the moon by dr. Sid, I hurried to check who was calling and it's no one other than my very good friend Tolu. He just left, did he forget something? I wondered as I picked the call.

"Hello"

"Sorry to bother you but in few minutes someone will come to you from me, please follow him I will be waiting" he hung up before I could ask anything, weird. I sat on my bed wondering what he might be up to, I was so lost in my thoughts when I heard a knock.

"Who is it" I asked

"From Tolu" the stranger said, a man according to the voice, I went to the door to see him and it happened to be his driver from the other day we went to KFC.

"Oh, good afternoon sir" I greeted and he smiled.

"Afternoon my dear, Tolu asks to bring you straight away" He said

"But for what?" I asked hoping to get a little hint but all he did was shrug. "I will go get changed then" 

"There won't be any need for that, you can just come along" he Said. I'm just putting on a bum short and a round neck which I talk into my bum shorts but since they said to come along that way I just lock my door and left. Walk down together to the car and he drove off, I couldn't say exactly where I was going but I knew they wouldn't do me any harm.

Go to a huge gate and he drove in and parked I mean take a look at this mansion damn.

"You can go in" he said and I just nodded and walked in, I met someone at the door who was probably waiting for me, she helped me in and directed me to a room and if I might guess right I'm at Tolu's house. Oh my God I am in thr house of the second richest man in Africa how on Earth did I get to the stage but why would he invite me to his house, is there something going on? He never said anything like this while he was at my place earlier today. I wonder what he is planning.

I knocked on the door and like he was expecting me already he just open the door and said "hey babe". Well, of course he was expecting me he sent the car after all.

"What is all this about Tolu?" I questioned as he led me into his room, no house? Room? Wait is this just a room or another house in his house? 

"Welcome to my humble abode" he said.

"This is not humble at all Tolu, why am I here" I asked still confused.

"I just missed you Alissia, I missed you" was all he said, we both sat on his king sized bed and talked about a whole lot of things as I ate the fruit salad I was served.
