He was not too dark neither was he fair. He had this look on his face, I wasn't sure if he was smiling or frowning. It was confusing. His lips were redish and looked quite kissable. Idiot! Snap out of it jor My name is Oluchi. It was just a dare. Or so I thought. Follow Oluchi on a journey filled with love, trust, betrayal, lies. What will happen when the dare she thought was so little could end up being so destructive.
