Saleem POV

I was busy on my laptop when my room door was flung open without warning. It was Sofiya; my next door neighbor.

"Saleem I'm making rice and stew, will you eat??" She offered flashing me a smile.

"Ever heard of knocking ma'am??" I replied sarcastically.

She rolled her eyes and came closer to me on my working table. Bending down to my level, she smiled again and I gazed at her frowning.

"What are you hiding sef. It's not like we've not seen tons of it before" Sofiya said jokingly.

"I'm serious Sofiya, you should learn how to knock. I'm a man and I need privacy" Clarifying my point, I returned my gaze to my laptop.

"Okay fine" She sighed flinging her hands in the air in defeat.

"Are you going to eat??" She inquired her smile disappeared now.

"Yes please" I replied not taking my gaze off my laptop. After leaving my room, I sighed and took off my glasses rubbing my eyes.

I was getting fed up with this lady, she clearly has feelings for me which I don't. I loved her like a sister and she's getting the wrong idea.

We've literally known each other in the compound for a year now and I've been really nice to her since then; naturally I'm a very friendly guy who loves to relate with everyone in the compound but Sofiya is taking my friendly gestures for love.

Trust me, I've tried talking to her and explaining to her that I only love and see her as a sister but she wouldn't listen. She's not ready to back down and it's becoming tiring.

One hour later, she came into my room with the food, by now I was laying on my bed pressing my phone.

"Here's your food baby" She announced placing the plate on the stool close to her.

I frowned. "I've told you to stop calling me that"

Rolling her eyes, she stood akimbo. "You know you are my baby whether you like it or not".

I sat myself up ignoring her response as I opened the plate of food.

"Mmm" I salivated, the food smells really yummy.

I took a spoonful of rice as she sat beside me cheesing.

"Wetin happen, are you expecting me to compliment you cause it's not happening ooo" I joked with my mouth full of rice.

"Before, who dey expect your compliment. Nonsense" She replied and we both chuckled.

Aside the feelings issue, Sofiya and I are really good friends. Like we play alot, talk, cook together most times and even advises each other. We were known in the compound as best buddies cause we love playing rough play.

The compound is very big, different characters and people are staying here. Like a day doesn't pass in this compound without one drama or the other. I stay in a one bedroom apartment for now likewise Sofiya.

I just needed a little space to get my gigs together before securing a bigger apartment. Sofiya and I are both graduates of course, she's self employed. She sells perfumes and wrist watches online while I'm an artist. I draw, paint, design logos, banners, flyers and all that good stuff.

The compound has two big buildings.Three storey buildings each, I occupy an apartment upstairs while Sofiya's room is just a room away from mine. I have two friends downstairs; Leke and Biodun. They stay in a room and parlour each.

My relationship status is complicated, I have a girlfriend; Ameerah but seems she's tired of the relationship but doesn't know how to come out to me.

She gives unnecessary attitudes and flares up at any slightest thing. I'm fed up at this point, we barely even communicate again. I'm based in Osun State while she's in Lagos State.

Preparing myself, I know she's going to come out to me sooner or later. I don't want to be the one to end the relationship, she has to end it herself. Loving her was not enough, I knew I already lost her.

Translations:
Wetin happen - What happened
Before who was expecting your compliment - I wasn't expecting your compliment really.
