‘what?!’ Alice asked in surprise
‘what are you doing here?’ she asked in
utmost surprise.
‘hi love, surprised to see me again?’
Gilbert asked.
‘GILBERT!’ she shouted.
She never expected to see him again
after disappearing for two good
months. Anyways, he has disappeared
for six years before and showed up
again.
‘how much you must have missed me
my love’ he said still smiling.
‘get lost!’ Alice said.
‘i did. And i’m back’
‘why cant you just let me live my life the
way i want it Gilbert?’
‘i love you Alice and thats what matters’
‘you are wrong. The fact that i dont feel
the same way matters the most. I hate
you Gilbert!’
Those words made Gilbert feel
humiliated. He grabbed Alice forcefully
by the arm and dragged her to his car
amidst her protest.
‘let me go! B—–d, where are you taking
me to?’
Gilbert smacked her twice on the face.
‘shut up! I swear you will pay for all you
just said!’ he said angrily.
Alice winced in pain. She raised her
hand to return the slap but he was
stronger.
He opened the door of the car and tried
forcing her inside, Alice was still strong
enough to protest.
‘LET HER GO NOW!’
That voice was not a joke. Whoever
could order him like that meant
business.

‘like the cinderella ball!’ Abby interjected
and they laughed.

‘guys like……Henry?’ Abby asked
mischievously.
Maria frowned.
‘Abby, stop rubbish for once in your life
now ah-ah’ Susan said trying to
suppress her laughter.
‘Susan, shebi you get Henry number?’
Abby asked.
‘sure now. Henry is Chuks bestie’ Susan
said absent mindedly. Not until Maria
and Abby laughed loudly that she
realised what she just said.
‘its…its not what you think…’
‘ogbeni, shut up jor!’ Maria said amidst
laughter.
‘love in Tokyo’ Abby said.
‘no now, its Love in Holy Mary
International School’ Maria said.
She and Abby laughed the more. Susan
hissed
‘you guys are sick!’ she fired in regret.
The last thing she wanted was her
friends mockery.
‘abeg you guys should stop!’ she said.
‘you heard her, she said stop! Abby,
stop eyeing her Chuks ooo, she said you
should stop!’ Maria said playfully.
Abby frowned.
‘which kind nonsense be this now.

Abby asked.
‘at least everyone of us got our own
dosage of anger’ Maria asked as the
laughter subsided.
‘una dey craze oo’ Susan said.
‘that reminds me, have you heard

asked.
‘no ooo. That one dey her lane since.
What of that s–t your father brought

‘ah! That one never near this house

in her ears. I hope your dad has not

‘no oo. Ever since Ann left, no woman

and they laughed.
‘excuse me guys, whats wrong in your

asked.
‘na you dey talk like this?’ Maria asked.
‘yes, cos with the way you both are

‘enough of this madness Maria! You’ve
