She's Androphobic

Chapter 6

    Inakwana, I'm guilty of not updating, I'm sorry 😞, an app called wattpad caused it, I can't even start explaining. Anyways, this is a double updateee, you deserve it guys.
     Soo without further ado I present to you, Chapter 6🥳🥳🥳🥳

Iremide's POV
   Friday arrived pretty quick, it's my favourite day of the week, we have sports today and I am privileged enough to skip it. I have packed lots of novels and snacks to spend my free time in class but right now we're having government, the last period before sports.
    Time seems to be moving slowly, I've spent eternity in this class.

"Now that we are done" Mr government teacher said.
     I don't know his name and I can't be bothered to know it because he teaches like a sadist. It seems like the sadist was not done
   " for your project, you will be divided into fours"
   God knows I hate projects. Mr government randomly picked students to pick a paper where their partners name will be.

     Unfortunately, I was part of those random people, I just hope I get paired with girls. I picked the first paper with a heavy heart, Ivan!!
     Like for real, I'm paired with that douche, destiny is playing a mind games with me. I picked the next paper hoping for something good "Sharon" okay, at least she is a girl.
      Time to pick the last paper, God I know I don't pray much but please this project contains half my grade, I want a good partner.

      After my little prayer, I picked the last paper,"Casper!!! I noticed the whole class looking at me, shit did I just call Casper's name aloud.
"Yes" somebody who turned out to be Casper replied me with a smile.
"How did ....", he replied me before I could finish "your expression sold you out".
    "Oh" I stared at my legs
  "I look forward to working with you" his signature smirk rested on his face, I returned it with a smile.
   
    I went back to my seat. I think the universe hates me, likeee why do I have to be paired with CASPER, don't get me wrong, he is not bad or anything like that, the problem is MEEE. My sweet heart can't stand Casper, it is going to beat badd, I can't control my feelings when I'm with him.
 
  The whole class dashed out for sports but I stayed glued to my seat.
    Finally, my free time. I took out a novel "Almost Paradise" by Susan Isaacs.
   I took out my kit kat and dived into the novel. Somebody tapped my shoulders, I looked up and it was the quiet girl who borrowed my note earlier this week.
    "Heyyy" I greeted. She sat on the chair beside me. I gave her a questioning look cause we aren't friends. She noticed this "I'm Sharon we are in the same group"
    "Ohhh" I didn't even know her name was Sharon, she doesn't look like a Sharon.
     She chuckled " we've been classmates right from JSS1 and you still don't know my name"
    Okay I'm very ignorant
   "But it's fine sha, I get" Sharon added
  She saw the novel I was reading and it turns out she was also a novel geek like me.
    "Do you read Nigerian novels" she asked after we've talked about all the European novels we know.
  "Wow, like it is an understatement, I love Nigerian novels"
   She broke a big smile and asked my favourite "Conflicted by Ada-xoxo-, officialsemiloore series, etc, I can't say them all" I replied. We started talking about the novels
  
     "Those little things by  lovetori _xo are my all time favourite" Sharon pitched in.
   "I love them" I stated in return "Let's not forget Donald Uzoka, his books are lit" I added
    "OMGGG, I can marry that that boyyy" Sharon screamed
   " Giwa is such a superb Character" Sharon exclaimed
    "Have you met Ivandor" I blurted.
    "Oh myyyy" she almost burst my ear buds, "he is sooo finee and mature unlike the Ivan in our class" she added.
    I laughed, "I can agree with you on that"
    "Don't forget Casper and Aaron" She reminded
   "Those guys made the novel madddd" I dramatically added
     "Like for real, the Casper in the novel is just like the one in our class", I agreed with her.
    We continued our gist moving from one topic to another till school ended.
     Sharon is actually cool, don't judge a book by it's cover.
     Ivan and Casper came, they talked about the group project, it wasn't really awkward because Sharon was there, Ivan was his usual, a douche. He kept making emphasis on how proud I am, and me as the proud girl that I am, acted like he didn't exist.
  
    We finally agreed on switching houses for the project, it was Casper's day so we all followed him.
    I messaged my mum so she doesn't get worried.

   Casper's house was beautiful, it wasn't as big as mine but it was homely.
   "Nobody's home so let's stay in the small sitting room" Casper told us, we all followed him to the small sitting room.
    We dived into our projects with Casper, Ivan and Sharon mainly contributing.
    "So the head girl of a whole HIS is dumb, wow how ironic" Ivan mocked.
    I shot him a glare
  "Dude stop" Casper retorted
    "Iremide ignore him" he added.
  
   Wait, wait it's how he called my name for me, chaiii! It was as if my mum named me Ire because of how well he can pronounce it, No nauuu, it's just tooo sweet. Gosh! Ire, be careful because it looks like you're falling bad.
    "Who wants snacks" Casper asked
   "Mee" Sharon and Ivan said in unison.
     "Iremide let's get them snacks" Casper said, but wait o, what's my own if they want snacks, why should I follow him, this boy sha wants to put me in trouble. I followed him anyways because I'll rather be with him than with Ivan.
   We made our journey to the kitchen. Casper began putting the snacks in a tray while I just stood there and watched him.
   "I didn't see you during sports" he said not looking at me.
    "Yes, I was in with Sharon in the classroom" I replied nervously.
   Casper nodded his head "ohh, I was looking forward to seeing you and dedicating my goal to you"
    Omo I couldn't stop blushing, at this point I appreciate the fact that I'm not light skinned if not my cheeks would have resembled ata rodo(pepper).
 
    We went back to the small sitting room only to meet Ivan and Sharon arguing, I wonder what happened to them.
   After eating, we all went to our  father's house.
    The best part of today, Casper collected my number.

  Sooo, hope you like it.
The Nigerian novels mentioned in the novel are real, you should try it, they made me fall in love with Nigerian novels. Donald Uzoka is my favourite Nigerian author, his books are lit, if you need the link, my DM is always opened.
