🧑🏻🧑🏻 EPISODE_THREE🧑🏻🧑🏻
Efua's renouncement of the LILIES spread like wild fire amongst the girls who were aware of her membership.
Nobody knew her reasons for leaving but I had a feeling it's something that's got to do with Collette and I.
" Is she really going to die if she gets a boyfriend before graduation?" I asked Collette. We were ironing our uniforms.
Collette took a hanger and removed her skirt. She inspected it and decided it needed to get ironed.
" Yes, she's going to die once she gets a boyfriend."
I was becoming Soo uncomfortable with this new turn of event. " Collette....what about you? Are you also renouncing your membership?"
" I was going to," Collette answered. " But MÔM wouldn't let me break out. It's risky to breakout before graduation. I decided I would take the risk."
" Which meant you're no longer a member?"
Collette shook her head. " It's complicated. I'm one foot in, one foot out. You just can't break out like that without MÔM's say so. I'm partially a member until MÔM says I can leave."
Which meant she was still a Lily but partially because Vee hasn't given her an approval to leave just yet.
But Vee allowed Efua to leave. I wondered why.
" Haven't you spoken to her yet?"
" Who?"
" Efua."
Collette sprinkled water on her skirt and pressed the hot iron over it. " Why do I have to speak to her? She made her decision and so do I."
I pouted. " But you still care about her, don't you?"
" I don't see how that is any of your concern, Lucy," Collette answered rather stiffly. " Exam's next week. You should be focused on your books."
" And you should also be focused on your best friend, Collette," I snapped.
She stopped ironing and glanced up at me.
I began speaking fast. " All you ever talk about is books and your chess tournament and maths competition. You ever care one day to make an effort to speak to Efua?"
She didn't reply me but that didn't discouraged me.
" Efua's going through a lot of sh*t, Collette. There's something bothering her. Something deep that's made her quit the LILIES. Don't you think now's the Time you two seat together and work on your differences? I know you two lost your friendship a long time ago but can't it be fixed? Must you two go on being rivals forever? I love you and Efua Soo much although I love you more. Still, I believe you two can become real friends again if you'll only make an effort to speak to her."
Collette switched off the iron. Her forehead was creased with a frown. " What makes you think we can ever become friends again?"
" Aren't you worried about Efua?"
She didn't look at me. " Not at all."
" You're lying!"
Collette hanged her skirt and settled down on the reading table. " Lucy, don't let us fight about this. You're raising your voice."
