I can't believe he actually took me to the stadium.
"The stadium"I say looking rather pissed.
"Yh,two of my favorite Nigerian clubs are playing"he replys looking so happy,I smile when I see his face, I've never seen him look so happy after what happened few years back,so if he is happy so am I.
"Let's sit there "he says pointing to the left.
He looked so happy while he watched the game,I was just so bored,I began playing with my finger.Most of the people watching the match were men or boys, you'd only see a few girls,and they also looked happy.Well,I was no fan of football.I felt so sad when he didn't notice I was bored,he had really changed,back in junior year he was so obsessed with me,but I guess he's changed.Maybe it was because of the incident.
I suddenly thought of something and decided to put it to work.

"Have you suddenly lost it!!!!"he screams at me causing so much attention,I was so embarrassed I wanted to melt in my seat,but my embarrassment was soon replaced with rage.
"Are you deaf"he screams again
"No I'm not deaf.....you allowed chioma to kiss you so why does my own have to be different"
"It's different because I like chioma and I don't like you"he answers this time lowering his voice a little bit but I knew people could still hear him,my eyes widen in shock.
"You like that village girl..."he looks at me with a confused look and then wears back his straight face.
"Whatever...."he says and gets up"and chioma did not initiate the kiss"he bends down to my level"I did"
He storms out still in complete rage.
I get up to in anger, everyone stared at me with somewhat pity"what the fuck Is you all looking "I say and hiss.

(Few hours back)

"Chioma your mum is here"Aunt amaka shouts from outside.
Mum had finally decided to come over,I know she was still very sad,my dad and mum were very close,Dad has been suffering from leukemia for about two years,he had been managing it since he found out but I guess God decided to call him.I really missed mum and my siblings,I haven't seen them for a month and it felt like a year.
I run to meet mum and embrace her so tightly she gasped for breath,I stare at her pale face and hug her again.
"Chioma how have you been"she asks
"Fine mum, how's the village"
"Good"she says and I take her bag
"Tochi,oluchi....how are you guys"
"Fine"my younger siblings chorus
I take their luggages to an empty room and help them in settling down.I was so happy to see them again.We soon started talking of everything that we encountered within the month,and that was when I remembered I had lessons with kunle,I hurriedly get dressed in a knee length skimpy black gown and white sandals,i pick my bag and leave.
