This is for you silvernia lovely friend like no other😘 

After they taught me how to use the toilet, I then took a shower and wrapped a towel across my chest. A new friend can show you what you do not know and you can show a new friend what you know too.
I came out of the toilet and met them discussing random things.

I picked up a brown dress from my bag, I slipped in it and used a piece of cloth to tie my unkempt hair and sat down next to them.

The lady next to Hanna forwarded her hand for a shake which I received.
"You are welcome to MAMIS Senior Secondary School. My name is Sadiyah Hamza Maira, I'm from Abuja here and  my parent also live here. I am 16 years old. Pleased to meet you."she said. I smiled.

The other lady seemed to be unfriendly and silent but she still managed to introduce herself.

"Hi! You are welcome once again" she started, her voice was like that of a rich politician, she spoke with pride or more like strength. Her voice was powerful.
"I'm Aisha Munir Dambo and nice to meet you."She concluded.
Whhhaaattt?
She's Munir Dambo's daughter, the famous businessman, I mean he is among the top five of the richest men in the Africa.
People in my village always talk about him, I remember.....
"Hello! Earth to Zarah" a hand waved in front of my face which interrupted my thought.
"Do you know her somewhere " Hanan asked.

"No but I heard about her father and I also remembered an incident that happened in our village"

"What incident ?" Hanan chipped in curiously.
"Tell us nooooooow."Sadiyah pouted.
Aisha didn't say another word after her introduction, she just kept on looking through the window.

"Aisha doesn't seem interested so I won't tell you guys " I teased just to get her attention but instead she hissed, rolled her eyes and stood up, she walked furiously out of the room. I wondered what I've said that was wrong, it's all my fault, I talk a lot. Parrot.

I looked at both of my colleagues and caught them starring at me. "What's wrong with her?" I asked the both of them.
"That's how she behaves when she misses her mom."Hanan replied.
It seems they are used to that habit of her's.

Aisha's POV
My God! Ya Allah! Why do I have this type of attitude towards people, I don't know what is wrong with me but anytime I remember my mom I fell alone, lonely, bored, unhappy and even indisposed.

I need my mom by my side. But I have to stay strong to complete this first term and also to pass my exams. I don't want to tell anyone about this.

Ya Allah help me out. I cried a lot for reason I can't really say and there is no one by my side to console me.  I cried and cried and cried for a longtime.
I later wiped my face and  walked from the corridor I was standing in front of my room. I tried to get over it and smile just to let it go.

Zarah's POV
The door handle bent and the door swung open. Aisha came in and to my greatest surprise she was smiling.
'Was she not the person that just left here sadly and now she's happy. I know something is wrong but she's trying to conceal her feelings.' Her eyes and her entire face was swollen, she must have cried a lot for a reason we didn't know.

"Hey you are smiling " I shouted, astonished. She smiled again and made her way to the toilet.
"She is a bipolar" Hanna teased
"I heard that" Aisha said almost entering the toilet.
"Opps" Hanna buried her face in her hands.
We all laughed.
She's truly a bipolar, how can a person's mood change suddenly as if controlled with remote.

Aisha came out of the toilet and sat beside me and said "Introduce yourself friend so we will know all about you,  so we can become best and close friends"
'Another introduction begins' I thought.
"Okay" I cleared my throat in readiliness to start.
"I'm......
