My Wattpad life

Chapter Three

I was halfway through the second class of the day, Literature in English.

If you're wandering about the class work, dont.

My teacher penalised me for submitting late but that's not too bad.

I had definitely underestimated those questions.

A group discussion was going on about rules of concord when my phone made its usual beeping noise.

Message from Faruq.

Faruq: Hey Niyi.

Niyi: Faruq, my guy!

Faruq: I hope all is well, Niyi.

Niyi: I'm fine jare.
How are you doing? :-)

Faruq: I'm good.
My younger sister's are showing me hell but I'm good.

I laughed before something caught my eye.

It was Faruq's display picture, and I have to say, he looked fresh.

He had taken a picture in a black polo shirt which contrasted with his fair skin and his brown eyes were twinkling in the picture.

But it was his hair that took my breath away.

I had to admit, Faruq was to die for with an afro.

Niyi: Your D.P is fresh oh

Faruq: Thank you.
When your obsession with cartoons ends maybe you'll display a picture of your own.

Look at his head.

Niyi: I'm not obsessed na.

Faruq: Mhm, sure.

Niyi: I'm serious guy.

Faruq: Whatever, that's not why I contacted you.

Niyi: So why did you do so?

Faruq: Did you do your math class work?

I know what this boy is up to.

He's trying to ask me to give him answers.

Well he's not getting them.

Niyi: For where?!
You think I'll be giving you dubs for free.
Commot for my private chat jare.

Faruq: Aunty calm down, did I ask you for dubs?

Niyi: Ok yes, I did it. What do you want.

Faruq: To write my correction. Mr Adedeji said you got all the questions right.

Niyi: If you copy my work you will pay faruq!
I'll be watching you.

Faruq: I've told you that I am not DUBBING!
And even if I am, are you a witch?
How are you watching me?

Niyi: If you don't want to face the witches from my village then copy the correction and do nothing more.

Faruq: You didn't tell me that you were descended from herbalists.

Niyi: You better go and copy your correction!
Herbalist ko, herlistba ni.
I will send the it to you now

Faruq: ok, ok. Thanks.
Talk to you later Niyi.

Niyi: Ok.

I went offline and back to my Google class.

I really couldn't wait for four o'clock to come.

Lessons will be over and I can go back to Wattpad.

Yay!

The month of April was going by pretty slowly.

***
"Class dismissed" Mrs Lawal announced on the classroom chat.

Finally, it's over and I can log into Wattpad again.

Further math classes were the worst.

At least I had classmates like Lexa that I could go to when I was having trouble.

Alexandra, Lexa for short was the class nerd. She was an albino with freakishly long brown hair and nutmeg eyes.

She was always happy to help a friend in need.

I sat back in my white arm chair, enjoying the sweet silence in my room before logging into Wattpad.

"Welcome back, Multimouse_3.0" I read while viewing the home screen .

Different books were being advertised here.

From paid stories to editors picks, I could see that there were many books to choose from.

Looking down, I discovered that I had two notifications.

I could never explain the warm and happy feeling in my chest when I discovered that I had a notification.

"Two people started following you" It read.

I tapped the notification, so that I could see Who they were.

Nina_reads started following you.
Thebooktalks started following you.

I knew that Nina was Amy's sister, so I followed her back immediately and added her book titled "Go with the flow" To my library .

But as for thebooktalks, I had no idea of who she was.

I tapped her name so that I could see what her profile looked like.

Her profile picture was an open book with a few faint words written on it.

Her bio didn't look too lengthy, so I was able to read through it with ease.

Hello,
You probably found me in a comment section or on someone's message board lol.

I'm Sandra, also known as the booktalks.

I'm basically a nerd who loves to read and write and created a Wattpad account to do so.

I love making friends :-)

And I do follow for follows.

Joined nov, 2018

She's quite bold to be telling everyone her first name.

But I could see why.

She had three published books and each of them had at least more than two thousand reads.

Talk about stardom.

I decided to follow her back, it would be nice to have something to look at in my news feed after all.

Then, I went back to my library to finish up After, which I had started reading yesterday.

My library wasn't too big, there were about thirty to thirty five books in it.

But it was just the right size for me.

Author's note
So, who likes Faruq?, because I know I do 😂
I hope you're enjoying the story so far.
You know the drill!
Hint: I like stars, don't you😉
