Can You Keep A Secret [Book 2]

Five

Dedicated to Naya Rivera! Rest in power Queen!

We were currently in my room for an impromptu sleep over, we have all been shaken up since we got the text.

This has got to be the worst year yet. I laid down on my bed and used my duvet to cover myself, I was shivering like someone that caught a cold.

"But Mide isn't at home and I doubt he has access to his phone and Wendy is not in the country, so who's this person?" Ziora asked, pacing the room.

"If you ask me, who'll I ask?" Derin sighed.

I couldn't believe that after everything, we were still getting texts from an unknown person.

"What if it's Kay Kay?" Zikora blurted out, we all turned to look at her and I scoffed.

"She's dead Zikora, we all saw her on the floor that day and if she were to be alive, why would she do this to us?" I asked and they all kept quiet.

Ziora was still pacing back and forth, Zikora was biting her nails while Derin was trying to see if she could trace the text message with my laptop.

"Any progress?" Ziora asked Derin and she shook her head.

"It's actually really hard and using Zara's PC isn't helping matters, I'm not used to using her laptop. I'll probably try again when I get home." She stared and we all nodded.

I was suddenly scared of sleeping alone in my room. I wanted to tell my parents about it, but knowing my mom, she wouldn't let me hear the last of it. I'll probably even leave the country before the week runs out. I'm sure the other girl's parents would do the same.

Ziora joined me on the bed and at the same time, we all heard a knock on my door.

"Come in." I wasn't even in the mood for Otito's drama but I wanted to see what she was up to.

Ifeoma walked through the door and I threw the duvet away from my body as soon as I saw her. I ran towards her, squealing like an excited rat.

"Ifeoma I've missed you, how are you? I thought you weren't going to come today again." I said, after hugging her like my life depended on it.

Ifeoma was a light skinned girl, she was a little bit curvy, what most people call slim thick. She was also tall, about 5"9 or 5"10. Her hair was extremely long, so she usually wore waist length braids.

"I'm sorry I haven't called, I thought you would still be in school." She paused, after realizing I wasn't alone in my room. "Hi guys, how are you guys doing?" She asked in her extremely tiny voice.

"We're fine." They all mumbled, I gave a nervous laughter and turned to look at the girls with my "be happier" scowl.

"Okay, I'll see you guys later." Ifeoma said and left the room.

"So that's who Luka left me for! Look at me now, I'm a full course meal, I'm a whole snack." Ziora said, turning her body for all of us to see. I rolled my eyes and sat down on my bed, using my pillow as a backrest.

"It's not only meal, it's buffet. Please sit yo ass down." Zikora scowled at her sister, hitting her butt.

"Hater." Ziora said under her breath.

"My head is aching me." Derin said and we all concurred.

"Let's go down for dinner, we need to eat something. No unknown message will make me lose my appetite." I said, getting up from the bed.
