Both Amanda and Praise took their suit case inside the room then Amanda stared at the three beds, the beds were four feet away from each other, then Amanda put her suitcase on-the-go middle bed.

" praise you'll sleep in that bed" Amanda said pointing at the bed on her right

" okay" Praise said and was headed there

" Praise you are not sleeping there, in fact Amanda you are sleeping then then you Praise is sleeping on my bed then I will sleep in the middle" Kelly decided

" I didn't know you could speak english" Amanda said folding her hands

" And Praise is not sleeping there, she is sleeping beside me"

" who are you to decide for her"

" I'm Amanda, Praises best friend, now answer me who are you to decide for her"

" I'm Kelly, Praises new friend "

" I can just sleep in the middle " Praise suggested

" no " Amanda yelled

" I'm not sharing my best friend " she added

" well I'm not sharing my new friend" Kelly said putting both her hands on her waist

" hey use your pigin english"

" I will use my bad English whenever I want" Kelly said turning her face

" normally Amanda chase away other people that wants to know me well because she fears that she will loss me and that person will replace her, but I never knew that she would be willing to fight" Praise thought

" Amanda okay please stop" Praise said smiling

" Kelly please leave me and my best friend alone " Amanda said turning her head

" you don't have to rub it in A man da " Kelly said

" man they are arguing for who wants to be my best friend, should I stop them? no no no, it's fun seeing two people fight to have me as their best friend, but seeing my Aman fight because of me is bad, I don't like it, I should stop them" Praise thought

" you guys should stop it, Amanda I will sleep in the middle okay, settle" Praise yelled then ranged her things. then Amanda started murmuring as she went to her bed
