KIKIOPE

"What's happening nah?" Bimpe shouted and I jerked my head towards her.

"What's wrong?"

She pursed her lips while Doyin opened the door, and we walked into our room.

"You know what I'm talking about, so, stop pretending," she accused and I squeezed my face before dropping my books on my bed.

"I don't know oo," I told her, and she rolled her eyes before jumping on my bed, Doyin did the same, I scrunched my brows before joining them.

She cleared her throat before talking, "The thing is I don't like what is going on."

I creased my brows, "Just go straight to the point."

She glanced at Doyin before replying, "You and Khalid."

I sighed. I was aware of what they wanted to talk about.

"We don't like this air between you two, throughout prep you guys didn't talk to each other and since you got back from Abuja I haven't seen you talk to each other, what's going on?" Doyin voiced out.

"Nothing," I replied succinctly.

Bimpe scoffed, "What do you mean by nothing? Why are you doing like this nah?"

I rolled my eyes, "I don't understand you oo."

Doyin snickered, "You can't, ever since you kissed him last week, you've been behaving somehow to him, what's wrong with you nah?"

I sighed. Truly, I can't explain what's actually wrong with me. I've been avoiding him lately.

"And I know you like him, so, why all this?" Bimpe added and I eyed her.

"I don't like him."

They erupted into laughter.

"Stop lying, it's written all over your face," Bimpe said and my eyes widened.

"Is it that obvious?" I queried and they chuckled.

"You just admitted it," Doyin snickered and I eyed her.

Bimpe tucked her legs beneath her and turned to me, "See, I don't know what is wrong with your brain oo, maybe you transferred your brain to someone but please collect it back, fine, you like him, and he likes you too, so, what's this awkwardness? Whereas he's your best friend even Kunmi and I that are always at loggerheads sorted it out."

I heaved, "What should I do?"

"Water, it seems you need deliverance abi we should take you to church so, they'll beat the stupidity out of your body, I kuku trust your church," she jested and I laughed.

Doyin stopped me, "If you don't want to get into any relationship with him, at least you guys should still remain friends, you were best friends before this whole thing."

Bimpe nodded, "That's true, wait, what am I saying? That's not true kankan, you guys should date, it'll be the sweetest thing ever," she teased and I rolled my eyes.

I started, "You know..."

Bimpe cut in, "I don't know anything, good thing we are going to Abuja tomorrow, and we'll be spending three days there," then she turned to Doyin, "Leave it to me, I assure you, they'll become a couple before we get back."

I chuckled, "You'll force me abi."

She nodded, "Don't worry."

I smiled, "It'll shock you like barb wire."

They both erupted into laughter.

"Talking about barbwire, do you know some people were caught in the barbwire this afternoon?" Doyin announced when they stopped laughing.
