Chapter 7

" You're late. " Joshua commented as Kiishi strolled into the art room five to closing time.

" I told you... " Whatever Kiishi was saying did not matter because he was already invading her mouth.

" Kiishi... "

" I have to go, my bus will be waiting minutes for me. " Kiishi said.

" Will you be attending Dare's party tomorrow? " Joshua asked her as he did the button of her t.shirt.

" If I don't have a family emergency tomorrow I will. You're coming? "

" No I'm not coming but I will if you spend five more minutes here with me. " Joshua gave her a lazy smile.

" Stop joore. " She punched him playfully.

" I will attend the party. " He told her kissing her forehead.

" You should be studying for your Jamb, not frolicking around parties.

" I do not know what frolicking means but I assure you the only place I frolick around is you. "

" I think we should stop this... "

" Don't. " Joshua said fear creeping into his eyes.

" For real, I'm a distraction to your... "

" You should go. Your school bus is waiting. " Joshua said producing the key to the art room. That he was head boy made him have access to places most students except the lab prefect did not. He would ask the prefect in charge of labs to give him the key to a particular lab under the guise of ' inspection ' and no one would question it even though they knew the only thing he ever inspected in those places was Kiishi.

" I've been waiting for you. " Bisola pouted as Kiishi took her place beside her in the bus. It was most unfortunate that Bisola was only on the afternoon bus, her parents drove her to school in the morning.

" As if. I'm always the one waiting for you. Did you and Kayode fight? " It was unusual for Bisola to be in the bus this early.

" Not really. " Bisola shrugged.

" What happened? " Kiishi asked.

" He won't do it. " She said with a painful face.

" Do what? " Kiishi asked her.

" You know, go down on me. " Bisola managed to say with a blush.

" What? You told me... "

" I know what I told you. I did not want you to think that I was.. was a... "

" So you've been giving him and he has not returned the favour? "

" I refused to give him a blow job since he won't go down on me. " Bisola said with a sour expression.

" So what have you guys been doing? Hold on don't tell me you've gone all the way already and I did not know about it? "

" Of course not! " Bisola said in protest as if she could not imagine that Kiishi could think such about her.

" Okay, okay. So what have you been doing with Kayode? " Kiishi quizzed.

" This and that. " Bisola replied in a small voice.

" I like that you've been taking my advice. " Kiishi said with a triumphant smile.

" He said you have been filling my head with nonsense. "

" He is an idiot, we'll get you a new boyfriend. " Kiishi said.

" I can't just do that. " Bisola whined.

" You're beautiful. Why not? " And it was true Bisola was extremely beautiful. She could easily pass for the most beautiful girl in school with her heart shaped face, deep brown eyes, full peach lips, and an hourglass figure that was to die for. Bisola was not one of the popular girls in school but her beauty announced her. The popular girls in school were jealous and the boys were in awe whenever she passed by.

" You're attending Dare's party tomorrow? " Kiishi asked.

" I'm not sure, you'll be hanging out with Joshua and I will most likely be alone.

" Nonsense. You will be surrounded by a host of parasitic bastards once they find out Kayode is not with you. " Kiishi said she could not understand why Bisola was so sad about Kayode.

" But we just started dating. " Bisola moaned.

" What the both of you are doing is not called dating. You guys are just answering each other's booty calls. " Kiishi stated refusing to console her friend.

" Can I have my pringles now? " Bisola asked in a sad tone.

" This is emotional blackmail, you tell me you sob story then beg me for food. " Kiishi said shaking her head.

" Please now. "

" No, I already promised this one to Zainab as bribe to help me wash my clothes tomorrow since I will be going out. " Kiishi refused to give in to Bisola.

Although, Zainab was their help their mother insisted that they ( herself and sister ) clean up after themselves, so they were responsible for taking care of their own rooms, washing their own dishes and doing their laundry.

" Ooh. " Bisola says in disappointment.

" Come tomorrow o. I will choose you over Joshua any day and he knows it. " Kiishi said few minutes later, as the bus pulled in front of her house.
