Femi's POV.

"So? You like?" Kunmi said, turning around, to display the gown my mom got for her. I knew she was trying to make me feel jealous cause mom has been giving her special treatment. I wanted to pretend to be jealous, but I couldn't help the smile that stretched across my face the minute I saw her in that crimson red dress.

The dress hugged her body nicely, bringing out her curves and perfect figure which she always hid in slightly baggy jeans and loose tops. The dress was sleeveless and had a lacey and flay finish, and a slit that stopped right below her knees.

"Wow!" I exclaimed, barely holding back the smile that kept stretching across my face.

"Oh my gawd! Is this Kunmi?!" Damola shrieked as he barged into my room like the lunatic he was, his noisy persona filled the entire room, making his presence known.

Kunmi spun to his direction and smiled, and Damola being the imbecile he was; took that as a chance to try to flirt with her.

"Just look at you! So hot! Please na, lemme wife you. I'll do it, I swear" he said, his eyes roaming her body. I could tell Kunmi didn't like the way he was looking at her and immediately eyed him from head to toe, shooting lasers from her eyes.

"Can't you quit being a sophisticated idiot for one second?" She asked, shaking her head amusedly at him.

"Abeg, I'm a man of fast things. I see what I like, and I say so. I hate beating around the bush, that's for cowards. You know? Femi's type of people" he laughed and I threw a pillow at him and he immediately dodged it.

"Meaning?!" I feigned hurt and he laughed.

"Shift jare! I'd didn't come here to see you. I came here to see Kunms" he said, putting his hand around her shoulders.

"But you didn't know she was here in the first place? Liar! Come and be going" I said, getting up to playfully send him out.

"Because of why? Say who die?" He asked, quirking a brow at me. "Shift! Lovers are talking" he said, smiling goofily at Kunmi who immediately chuckled and shrugged his arm off.

"You need wisdom" she said to him.

"Like you have?" He muttered and I laughed, although Kunmi didn't hear him.

"What's funny?" She asked me, plopping on my bed.

"Guy na, don't say anything" Damola whispered to me, pleadingly and I grinned.

"Nothing" I lied and she rolled her eyes. "I'll be right back, I need to change" Kunmi announced as got up from my bed, walked into my bathroom and shut the door.

"How far?" Damola said, plopping on the couch in my room, spreading his long legs, recklessly.

"Why you dey ask? (Why are you asking?)" I replied, playfully hissing at him.

I picked my phone and scrolled through my contact in search of Chioma's. I wanted to speak to her, to know how she's doing and probably just because I wanted to hear her voice again.

Turns out, you end up knowing the value of a moment the minute it becomes a memory.

To be honest, I did miss her constant nagging and her attitude. Although they weren't nice, they still made me laugh at some point and, well, they also reminded me of her. For reasons unknown to me, I actually wanted to see her again.
