"Bolu,Bolu", said Ade as he came into their room
"Ade, how may I help you", I said as I went through my notes
"You remember that girl I told you about that I have been wanting to speak to for over a week now, she just spoke to me today", said Ade smiling as he sat down on the sofa
"So that is what you were bothering me for, guy go get a life, our exam is just around the corner and here you are jumping all over the place because of a girl, seriously", I said as I looked at my book
"Oh boy, you have bad sense of humor, by the way you will understand how I feel one day", said Ade as he stood up to leave
"I pray not, where to  aboki" ,I  said then our third roommate Raymond came into the room looking so tired as always
"Hey, old folks", said Raymond as he collapsed on his bed
"How was your day, stressful again", I asked
"Today was a bit alright, Ade , you are smiling today ",asked Raymond
"Yeah, I got the girl", said Ade
"Which of them",asked Raymond
"I am a one woman man o ", said Ade
"I thought they were more than three ",asked Raymond
" He seems to have changed today, Ade I feel sorry for that girl", I said
"Guys, I'm really serious about this girl okay , I feel a connection,she is different from the rest", said Ade
"He has finally agreed that there  were more", said Raymond
"Yeah, do you realize he always says the same about the other girls, you never stop feeling connection with girls Ade, you are just too much of a womanizer", I said
"Ah ah now guys, you guys should be supportive of me right now", said Ade
"We are , just wanted to let you know or remind you again that AIDS is real okay now, good boy get into the kitchen and cook us something delicious, it's your night", said   Raymond as he pat Ade's back trying to hold in his laughter while I laughed happily remembering how supportive these two guys were to me after I resumed school again, how much they cared about my well-being , they were always there for me whenever I felt sad about my parents death ; I missed them a lot .
