The scene reflects an exotic area in Lagos, Nigeria. Two neighboring houses with a short barb wired fence to demarcate the very closely built buildings.
And from the houses, are two windows facing each other directly. Adnan, the new neighbor's son had just been placed on house arrest by his father for trespassing. He walks into his room and ran through his wardrobe restlessly, and brought out nothing. Again he did the same thing and brought out an old phone, he had hidden for long. He gave a dashing smile and yelled "Yes." Quietly, then he looked through his window, and caught a glimpse of a flooding beauty, that which flooded his heart along. He smiled, and waved at her, but she didn't notice him.
Probably she was drowned by thoughts, as she looked through the window, with her arms folded and wearing a sad face.
So he sat back on a chair close to the window, and thought for a while, then he came up with an idea then he yelled at her.___________________________
For a better understanding of the conversation, Adnan's dialogue will be written in italic, while Farida's dialogue will be written in a bold font. And same thing will apply to other characters in this book. Thank you.😊

"What? No, thats not true."
"What do you mean that's not true, i saw you!" He emphasized.
"Why would i even look at you?"
"Haha, Maybe because i'm cute."
"What? Cute? Urgghh, You look like an ape."
"Oh, really? So magically I caught you looking at an ape seductively right?"

"Yeah, Maybe you can cure me, huh?"
"You must be really mad!""Look, I don't have time for this rubbish!" She yelled, angrily.
"Oh, seriously? So what do you have time for?"
"Now let's get this straight. I don't know you, you don't know me. So if you could just mind your business, i'm sure it will be best for you."
"Wow, is that a threat? Because I love the attitude you put in.
It's a threat, yeah, it is.

"I heard that!
And you know what I think? I think it is because you're attracted to me!""Well, I am sorry to break this to you dummy, but you look like shit, and I am not attracted to you."
"My name is not dummy my name is adnan!"
"I didn't ask." She said. Abusively, making a gesture with her hand by waving it in the sky, to indicate.
"Whatever!"
He screamed, angrily and slammed his window and left.
