SOUL TIES

Let's Do This.

Avery pov.

Here I was in my new school. It looked good as fuck. I always had high standards for myself. This isn't what I wanted in the first place, but it's good. I held onto my luggage, tired and confused about where I should head to and get my admission ongoing. I looked around and spotted a few fine boys. I'm not the girl who gets involved with her classmates or agemates for that matter. I liked my men a little bit older, mature. They had something to offer, and I'm not talking about money. A group of boys passed me, turning their heads, ogling. I know I looked good, but couldn't they help?

     As I looked around, some girls were being rowdy as they walked past me. "Are those the new yeezys?" This pretty lightskin-ish girl asked. She was also kinda taller, standing at about 5'7. I looked down at my feet and nodded. "I am Monique, these are my friends, are you here for the admission?"

       "Hey, I'm Avery. Yeah, I'm actually lost." I said hoping she'd help me find my way around. Her other two friends had also stopped. "hey, I'm Tifa, you are so pretty". The petite friend said. I mouthed a thank you waiting for the third friend to introduce herself. She was actually scrolling on her phone.
Monique called her out, she seemed kind of distracted. "Oh sorry, I am Mariah, I can't believe this stupid ass nigga won't reply to my text." I mentally rolled my eyes, but gave her a tiny smile.

       "Let me see your papers. We can help you out. We arrived on Monday. We've been getting to know this bitch a bit better. To be honest, I don't think these campus boys do it for me." Monique said putting out her hand. I handed my papers to her saying "Hell yes, I don't like these boys. Older guys are the way to go"
Mariah looked at the both of us and scoffed. "I don't understand you two".

       In less than an hour, I was done with all the administrative shenanigans, I was headed to my hostel. I had already become fond of the three girls, Tifa, Monique and Mariah. Tifa and Monique were seemingly closer. They had that bestie vibe. I had been assigned the same hostel as Mariah, I couldn't be mad at that. At least I was kinda familiar with my roommate.

        The girls were gracious enough to help me unpack. "Didn't you guys have somewhere to be?" I asked the trio. Not that I didn't want them around, they just dropped whatever they were doing for me. My phone rang and I immediately remembered that I hadn't called my parents.

Granted, it was them facetiming me. I received the call making sure to include my new friends in the frame. "You've made friends quite fast Avery. How's everything going?" my mum asked and I explained everything, also introducing the trio. When the call ended, Mariah squealed "Yeeesss, he finally replied. He wants to meet tonight. Does he want to fuck?" she said finally lifting her head from her phone and looked at us.

         "You clearly like the guy, even though it's been three days since y'all met. So give it up if that's what you want," Tifa said.What Mariah didn't tell us was that she had actually known the guy way before university happened.
       "Well, I'm not sure about that. Do you want to fuck him? Wait, have you had sex before?"
I looked up from removing my clothes from the suitcase waiting to hear Maria's reply. "Aren't you guys virgins?" Monique and Tifa looked at each other shaking their heads no. Monique told us how she lost her virginity to a boy while in high school and had to stop midway because the boy didn't know what he was doing. Tifa said that she had lost her virginity to her high school love, but they broke up afterwards. They all looked at me waiting for me to spill my tea.

      "Well, I had this boyfriend. We made out like a hundred times for 3 years, but when he tried to put his dick inside me, I'd get scared and stop. So this day, he hit me up saying his friend was throwing a party. I pulled up, nigga got me so drunk and high. It was my first time drinking. He took me to this room and we started making out.

He tried putting his dick inside me, I  tried to push him away cause  I was blacking out. He pinned me down and shit happened. I woke up the next day feeling some typa way in my coochie. I went to the washroom and saw some blood on my panties. Memories of the previous night came flooding in, I was pissed. I went to confront the dumb ass nigga. I was fuming crazy. Guess what?

He wasn't there. He had left. I tried calling him and he didn't pick up. He ghosted me for a whole two weeks. I was panicking cause I didn't know if we had used protection. My number one fear is pregnancy. Tell me why he hit me up asking if we could fuck again. Later came to find out that he was fucking two of my friends too." I narrated.

       You could see the shock on the girls' faces."See, niggas ain't shit." Monique said shaking her head.

Mariah was in a fix. She liked the guy but didn't want to give it up yet. You'd think Mariah had broken her virginity. She had no look of innocence on her. "you bitches should accompany me to his place." she said looking at all of us for approval. I had no objection. I was trying to meet some new people. I needed to take a quick nap first, I was so tired.
