JOY WASN'T ABLE TO sleep throughout the night as all she think about is the make out she had with Jonah,she didn't know what came over them and how they gone that far,Ruth was surprised to see her back to the house early and tried getting her to eat but she refused telling her she's already full
Joy went to her room changing into her night gown before laying on the bed rolling uncontrollable thinking about things that happened and could have happened,the time flew and before she knew it it was already morning,she had her bathe and got ready for church
She wore a pink short floral gown that stopped on her knees,she tied a white veil took her Bible and joined Ruth who was also ready for church,they left the house and arrived at the church, Bimbo Joy's church friend saw her and waved at her
"Joy!"she called and Joy smiled jogging over to meet her
"Good morning!"Joy greeted
"Good morning,how was your night?"Bimbo asked,she was a dark slim girl dressed in a long dark blue straight skirt and a multicoloured shirt,she hold her Bible with her left hand as she acknowledged Joy
"Was fine"Joy answered and they walk together going inside the church,the service started and they all sat listening to the pastor's preaching and sang praise and worship,the service came to an end and Joy wanted to go and find Ruth
"It was nice meeting you today again Bimbo"Joy said and Bimbo smiled"I will be going after my mom see you next Sunday"
"You're welcome,I'm allowed to visit right?"Bimbo asked and Joy chuckled
"Of course,you're welcomed anytime"Joy said
"I will visit you one of these days"Bimbo said and Joy nodded,she left her going around to look for her Nana when one of her church member stopped her
"Joy!"The young man called
"My lord!"Joy exclaimed "Peter! When did you come back?"Joy asked and Peter chuckled
"This week,I lost your contact I would have contacted you so I didn't mind much because I'm sure I will see you in church"Peter said
"So nice to have you back,how's school?"Joy asked
"I'm so tired of school!"Peter exclaimed and Joy laughed,they exchanged contact promising eachother to keep in touch
Peter is a friend to Joy and been her church guidance right from when she was little,she sees Peter like an elder brother,Peter is studying theatre and performing arts in Obafemi Awolowo university and just came back from school
Joy went back home happily that she saw her friend and guidance again after few months,Peter is eighteen years and currently in two hundred level,he called Joy as soon as she reached home and she was happy to talk with him

The day went faster than they all expected, morning came again and Joy went to have her bathe after her morning prayer,she wore her uniform and took her stuff going to the kitchen,she met the kitchen empty and was surprised not to see Ruth busy in the kitchen,she went to her room and met her shaking
"Nana what's wrong with you?"she asked and kneel beside her immediately
"I'm feeling cold,I'm sorry I can't prepare you breakfast today"Ruth replied
"Forget about breakfast,you should head to the hospital"Joy said
"I will be fine just go to school,I will be fine when you're back"Joy insisted for awhile but Ruth shoo her away letting her know she's fine
