After checking the cafeteria, library and biology class where I thought Basma would be, I finally found her on the basketball court.
Her face was buried into a book, and I can tell her whole concentration was on the book.I rushed towards her and screamed. "Yusuf Omar just asked me out, like out on a date!"
She spranged up with a heart on her chest and her breathing uneven, she hunched over and took a deep breath.
"Fati...are you crazy? You scared the hell out of me!" She panted, glaring at me.
I would have laughed if my head wasn't in turmoil.
"I'm sorry, I'm just so confused but also so happy, like my mind is a mess right now."
"Why what happened?" A curious look took over her features, she no longer looks like she wants to strangle me.
"Yusuf Omar just asked me out!" I exclaimed once again, she gaped at me, mouth wide open, she blinked..once..twice before letting out a squeal.
"Shut up! Are you serious?"And I nodded knowing I had a silly grin on my face.I just couldn't believe he liked me, I mean I liked him, almost every girl in the school liked him. He was not corky, he was a very sweet guy but with very bad guys, although he didn't really hangout with them that much.
His dad was the imam of the central mosque of Nigeria, let just say the angel gave birth to a wannabe devil.
He tried as much as possible to be a good guy and still have a little bit of badness in him.
He never missed his prayers and never smoked like his friends, David and Bilal. But he was a pretty bad guy when it comes to sex as rumors has it that he had slept with almost all the girls in his class, which I refuse to believe, I don't know why, I just didn't.
"You know, I'm happy for you but there's a problem." Basma spoke, pulling me out of my endless thoughts.
"What problem?" I queried, genuinely shocked, how is Yusuf asking me out a problem?
"Um..Tabitha have this major crush on him, I mean love kinda crush, she had already told all of us not to date Yusuf, ever."
I was worried, I didn't know what to do, I liked Yusuf and I also liked my position at the Divas, I didn't want to leave. But I was conflicted, dating Yusuf will give me popularity but been in the Divas will give me more popularity."What do I do Basma? I really like Yusuf." I whined, i was close to tears, Yusuf was my dream guy and I felt like breaking down.
"Here's the thing, when Yusuf asked you, did you accept? "
"No, immediately he asked, I ran to find you."
"Okay that's good, so here's the suggestion, I want you to accept Yusuf but tell him that it's going to be a secret relationship because you don't want your parents to find out or skemthing, just any excuse, that way youget your dream guy and you still stay in good terms with Tabitha." She suggested and I immediately tackled her to a big hug, I was super grateful and I kept whispering thank you's.
Then i turned around and ran to find my dream guy and accept him.
