I chuckle at the funny meme Joseph posted on our class group.Aunt Amaka bought me a phone a week after I came,my new phone was very addicting but I knew when to use it and when to put it away.I started chatting with Lola as I rolled on my bed and yawned loudly.God where the hell are My manners.I was still chatting with her when a message popped on my screen, I tapped on it and read it.
:Hello
:Hi,pls who is this and how did you get my number.
:I'm your biological practical partner,we didn't discuss anything in school today.
I was stunned for a moment,I ignored the fact that he didn't tell me were he got my number from and proceeded on asking him some other questions.
Me:ok...so are u good in biology?
:Yes, it's my favorite
As much as I hate asking this question I still had to do it.
Me:so where are we meeting?
:At my place,I stay at lekki
I was surprised because I also stayed at lekki.
Me :Me too
:Ok,so are you free tomorrow
:I think so
:What time will you come?
Me: I'll think about it.... send me the description of your house.
:Ok
I never expected him to be like this,I thought he was too bossy to lower himself and talk to me.Oh well,as they say don't judge a book by its cover.A minute later he sent me the description of his house and I noticed it wasn't even far from mine,just three streets away.I became suddenly nervous for some reason.I got up and looked in my wardrobe,then picked out a blue Jean and a black top then I proceeded on ironing it before I had my bath and went to bed.

I had never been so embarrassed like the way I was today,I couldn't still believe that that Titi of a girl had humiliated me in front of everyone,I knew my reputations would crash soon.I was so devastated,I couldn't tell Sarah or Mimi i could only think of one person to tell.I could only tell Kunle, I've been crushing on him since primary school but I never had the courage to tell him,I was so glad when I heard he was coming to laceville at least I would have the opportunity to tell him how I feel about him after so many years now.He looked so fine, even better than before, he's now tall and very cute.I wish I were his practical partner,then I would spend some time with him but I'm stuck with this nerd.
"Hrrrr"I growl as I remember that chioma was partnered with Kunle.I feel relaxed immediately,he can't fall for someone like chioma, "she's just to low standard for him, unlike me,I'm his perfect match" I say to my self and chuckle.I couldn't wait for Monday, I'll begin sitting with him,as he doesn't have a sitmate yet.

(Chioma's pov)
I woke up by 7:30 in the morning,I proceeded in doing my chores,which are sweeping the house, cleaning the furnitures and washing the dishes.Aunt amaka and her daughters were still sleeping and I didn't want to wake them up so I helped Amarachi and Fechi to do their chores, even though I did their chores for a year it wouldn't change the hatred they feel towards me.
When I was done with everything it was already 9:00.I went to the kitchen to make breakfast,I fried some eggs and boiled water for tea,then I dished everyone's food,I was certain they would wake up any moment from now,as if they read my thoughts they all woke up and walked to the dining.
"What's that aroma?"Aunt amaka says and I chuckle.
"Breakfast"I say and hand her a tray.
"Thank you,you are so hardworking"Aunt amaka says while smiling.
"Unlike these two"she says and looks at her daughters who roll their eyes.
"Um chioma"Amarachi starts and looks at me.I wondered why she was talking to me,she normally doesn't talk to me like before.When we where kids we used to play together but since she aged she stopped talking to me.
