Chapter Two

I have to wake up early for church, my word is my bond, we attended winners (Living Faith Church) to my greatest surprise Andrew was the church drummer.

I said this is fate, sat down, we both smiled at each other, after the service I rushed home without waiting for first timer package.

I acted like that so sister Amaka won't notice a thing, later that day Oga was in my dm, asking why did I not wait for first timer.

I told baba that I was having menstrual cramps, I'm sorry about that hope you're on medication? And I would love to see you in weekly activities. No problem, you would but I have a challenge with my physic manual would you help me with it ?

Sure, after class tomorrow at the library? Can I call this a date said Andrew, you can call it what ever you like as long, I get this manual done before Friday.

We had only one lecture, on Monday so after class, this boy took me to a restaurant and bought food and Ice cream to eat, saying you can't learn on a empty stomach.

I offered to share the bills among us he refused oshey provider, I called him and he started laughing, I... to...ld you I wa..s trained to ta...ke good care of Las.... last borns.

We both laughed, after eating and licking icecream, we headed straight to the library, while holding hands. I felt over the moon and later, puts his arms around my shoulder.

I felt like melting like an ice cream, I didn't understood a word he was saying, I was already in my dream world fantasizing on how we would get married.

Amaka helped me out, so I later understood it, myself and Andrew went out alot, you could call us, boyfriend and girlfriend but he hasn't asked me out yet.

His turning seventeen next week, I don't know what to get for him, so I asked him, what was his favorite food because to get to a man's heart you did to go through his stomach.

Andrew said "banga soup and eba' I have no idea on how to make that, thank God for YouTube and Jessica because she also stays in warri, delta state. With her anuty because she lost her mum as she was born and don't know who her dad was.

What a life, Andrew stays off campus with his four roommate, adding him up would made it five in a little room. I told him I was coming over, it's a Saturday morning no classes, and his roommate's were playing football in school field.

He didn't expect me, to see me with banga soup or cake neither so my effort paid for, I reached his house and surprised me, Mr Cutie, birthday boy I hyped him.

We danced, he was listening to Davido's new song Ogechi remix, so I told him my native name was chioma and he made the song on repeat, funny boy. And his a great dancer.

We vibed until his roommate's started arriving so I heard to go, on my way I recieved a message, from Mr cutie 'You made my day thank you so much I love you, 'I felt butterflies in my belly` you are welcome Mr cutie

Weeks passed.

It was our semester break so I went home, told my mom about Andrew but skipped the part of him and his family not financially stable, my mum said urhobo men are lazy oh! And womanizer anyhow sha. She ended it there.

I didn't care I loved him regardless, and asked my dad for 500k five hundred thousand. To get a bag for myself, which I gave to Andrew to apply for transfer to medicine and surgery, and pay his fees.
