After bath,Kiitan sat on her bed totally devastated. After Mayowa had given her money for her dress,she had gone to glamour 'n glitz where she stumbled on the purple dress. You could call it love at first sight because the instant her eyes fell on it she knew she just had to get it.

    Unfortunately,Mayowa had given her just ten thousand naira and the price tag of the dress said ten thousand naira which means there was no money left for shoe and  purse not to mention hair.

          She had left the boutique without choice and hoped to borrow from Sophie or Michelle. Not until she came across Moyin her course mate and one of the most fashionable girls on campus. She was known never to repeat a dress or shoe twice. Though she was rich,Moyin was very friendly to everyone which made it easy for Kiitan to approach her.

       All Kiitan needed to do was to explain her predicament to Moyin and she was taken into her hostel to choose out of several fancy looking jeweleries. Of all the jeweleries she was shown, only one caught her eyes. She had seen it at Glamour and Glitz but it had eight thousand naira on the price tag.

        The higher the price,the higher the respect she approval she will get from people so she decided on that one. Moyin gave it to her but made her promise to return it the day after the party.

     Now that the necklace, earrings and bracelet was missing,Kiitan couldn't think straight. How was she going to face Moyin? She was particularly angry at Mayowa,he hadn't called her since the party. He took her to a party and just abandoned her,of course she deserved an apology.

    She couldn't go to class because she couldn't face Moyin and she knew she will be getting calls from her soon. Kiitan picked up her phone debating whether to call her phone or not but who was she fooling her pocket money couldn't cover her debt. She turned off the phone to avoid calls from Moyin before laying her head on her bed trying to think of a way to get out of her present predicament. Why was life full of so much problems.

********

It has been two days since the sex incident happened. Tooke couldn't believe he had thrown her out like that. What happened to their undying love? All the promises he had made to her? Has she really rejected him?

   She had several thoughts running through her mind concerning the issue and a greater part of her felt it was totally her fault. She felt like a part of her had been removed without her talking to her only love within the past two days.

    Her daddy doesn't necessarily need to know that she has violated his order. She knew girls that had lost their boyfriends to other girl because they refused to have sex with them and Murewa was a perfect example.

   She called Kolade who said he was at the basketball court. She asked him to stay put and took a bike. It was 8;15 pm so it was pretty dark. She flicked on her flashlight but couldn't see any sign of him.

  She was already turning around to leave when she saw a guy sitting alone with a bottle of vodka and cigarette.

  "Jesus! Kolade,I thought you stopped this" Tooke screamed totally shocked.

"I did. You made me start again" Kolade said with mouth stinking with alcohol

"Me? How?" Tooke asked

"Your rejection. I couldn't bear your rejection" He whispered.
