Finding Peace (Nigeria lesbian Love Story)

CHAPTER 3

AMAKA'S POV
7:50AM

So my class actually starts by..... uhm I don't know, apparently the time table isn't out yet. But the head of class posted on the telegram group chat that we should be in school by 8AM cause our seniors were going to address us, I guess. I don't know, Anyways I'm still seating in my car reading messages on the gc, I saw the name of the venue we were all to meet so I carried my backpack and got out of the car.

I asked for directions till I got to a very beautiful hall which is the venue, I went in unknowingly I went through the front door and it was like all the eyes in the hall was on me, I don't mind though. I really do not care, I sat on a chair in the front roll. The hall was a little bit noisy, I don't know how cause this is literally the first day in the semester and how do they already know each other, I plugged in my airpods and started listening to music.

I decided to reply the message on my phone from my mum, Mummy is actually a therapist And a psychologist.  She loves her work a whole lot but she loves me more. She called me this morning to pray for me, then she asked me to get ready so I won't be late, I'm actually 18 but she still treats me like a child. I don't mind though, I love her a whole lot.

While I was so engrossed in my phone I had not notice that someone already sat beside me, all I saw was someone stretching their hand to tap my leg when I immediately moved, I had not let the hand touch me before I moved, I don't know why I moved so fast though, probably reflex. I removed my airpods to answer him but he pointed towards the front to show me that the seniors were already here so I had to focus.

9:15AM

We were finally done with the meeting, I actually don't know what to call whatever that was, they said a lot of useful things actually, I should probably just call it a mini orientation, they told us how to calculate our CGPA, told us the do's and don'ts of being a law student in the university. They finally left and I sat on the chair going through telegram to see if there's a new update on the gc but there was none.

"Hi...... my name is Josh". I looked up to see the guy that sat beside me looking at me with a bold smile and  stretching his hand for me to shake.

I took his hand smiling "I'm Amaka, Mika for short".

"Oh wow I love Mika" paying full attention to him, he is actually a pretty person, dark skin, it looks like I'm a little bit taller than him, he is probably  5'8 or 5'7, he looks a little bit feminine though but fr he is really handsome.

"You're handsome, Josh'. I said looking at him, I don't know but I have this thing where I say the things in my head the way they are, good or bad.

"Oh my...... thank you, that was not expected. You're also handsome, Mika". Wow he used handsome for, I don't know but I like Him already, dfkm. I just smiled at him as a response, did not reply him.

He sat down by my side again before saying " I don't think we have classes now, have you had breakfast??? I'm starving ". Funnily I drank only coffee that morning, I needed to eat if not mum will off my head about how I'm Skipping meals.

"We can go get something to eat, I saw a restaurant on my way to the faculty. We can drive there" I said back, I'm not really that good at making friends, I hope he doesn't think I am boring.

"Oh wow, you have a car. You're a big girl. Dfkm" HE said with a lot of excitement. I just smile, I had my mum to thank for that. " by the way I love your accent"

"Thank you, Josh".

We got out of the class and drove my car back towards where I saw the restaurant, it's a little bit spacious. And beautiful from the outside, I don't know how it is on the inside yet though.
We got out of the car and went towards the restaurant, Josh opened the door for me, such a gentleman.

We sat close to the window, then the waiter came over to take our order, while we waited for our meal Josh filled me how he got into the school and why he is studying law. Apparently his daddy is a lawyer and wants him to study law too since his elders brothers all 3 of them studied law and him being the last of 4 kids too must study law as a tradition, he doesn't want to study law though he has a lot of interest for fashion and photography.

He showed me a lot of his work too and I must admit they're really beautiful, he is a very talented guy. Our food finally came, I got chicken and chips while Josh got fried rice, jollof and chicken. While we ate I found out Josh is 19 years old and he stays in Lagos but he is Only studying here. As Josh continued filling me in on everything about him, I noticed a girl siting directly opposite us, she sat alone. Picking at her burger, she looked so far away. She is on low cut, she has very full lips, beautiful cat eyes and a Melanin skin tone, while i was admiring her beauty she suddenly looked up like something woke her from her trance and picked up her phone apparently it was ringing.

I didn't hear what she was saying though, I noticed that Josh looked back to see who I was looking at, he smiled and look at him.

"You're like her?" He asked

"Pardon?" I asked

"You were staring. Do you like her???" He asked again

" She's pretty " I said as nonchalantly as I can, she's really beautiful. Like very beautiful.  Goodness Lord, I tried to stop staring. It was really impossible though, I even used my eyes to excort her out of the restaurant. By the way Josh also told me that he is bisexual, I don't know why though.

After eating we headed back to our faculty and sat in the hall in case we had any classes.

We sat together for a while before the head of class texted that there was no class for the day and that the time table will be sent to the gc before the end of the day. I drove Josh outside the school gate where he had a Uber waiting to pick him up.

I drove home, had my bath, ate, called my mum to filled her in on my day, told her I made a friend but I didn't say anything about the girl I saw at the restaurant. After the call ended I  laid on my bed where I daydream of the beautiful girl I saw at the restaurant. I don't know if I'd see her again anytime soon, I really hope I do.

I slept daydreaming of her face.

IREAYOMIDE'S POV

9:45AM

I walked into a restaurant, not to get food but to wait for my driver, I sat on the chair when a waiter came over to take my order, I told him I was not ordering anything but that I was waiting for my driver, he said the only way I can wait in the restaurant if I order something.

So I ordered burger and bottle water. I looked around then placed my head on the table, some minutes went by before they brought the burger, I wasn't really hungry so I stared at it for a while before I started picking on it.

I really don't want to be here, I want to be with my mum. I want to hug her and kiss her. I want to hear her voice and apologize to her for everything, it's my fault that she is where she is now. I had been in this school since 8 and we've done absolutely nothing. Now the head of class Said our departmental time table will be sent to the gc in the evening or so, so I'm heading home.

All of a sudden I felt something vibrate in my pocket, my driver is here already. I picked up the phone, he said he is outside already so I paid for my meal and walked out of the restaurant, I went towards him and he opened the door for me with a smile. I nodded at him.

We got home at 10:49PM
When we got home my aunty wasn't here so I won't straight to my room to sleep, I changed though before sleeping.

We're finally at the end of the chapter. I really hope y'all enjoyed this chapter, I'm really sorry that I've not been updating as often as I should. I'll change, I'll try
