I Am In Love - Season 1 - Episode 7

"ahah why do you ask?" she asked me with a baffled look

"hmm, you know Magarina is a man whom everybody has got a great flare for in politics and he was known to have a good reputation in the eyes of the poor,a stinky rich man,he had many things,and I know you knew him because he is always on the newspaper and article everyday" I narrated to her with some lovely gestures which made her laugh
"oopppss,you're so funny pen"She jokingly said

"so are you his daughter" I asked her with a serious look

"Noo I'm not dear" she said as gazed away from my direction
"but you resembled him and.... "

"it's okay,i said I'm not his daughter" she said as I noticed her voice raising

"I'm sorry Lina"i apologize immediately
" spare me please!!!!" she says as she shifted away from my direction

***So she get angry easily like this***i thought
"okay let go get iced cream before the next lecturer comes in"i jokingly said as I drag her in friendly manner

"leave me alone jare" she childishly said
"oya sorry now, *someone cannot play with you,is that how you use to do*"i said as I jokingly shrugged her ribs

"**she laughs***okay let me stand up by myself" she said putting up a little smile on her face showing that she's no more angry
After the day's lecture,i was smiling till I got to our hostel which was on off a campus
On getting to our hostel,i met Ekony and Perry who were already devouring the Eba and ewedu soup which I guess is being brought by one of their side chicks

As I entered,i was so happy that I did not even notice how the two of them were fighting over the two plates of Eba and Ewedu
I began to whistle around the whole room happily because I felt that I have beginning to have one of the greatest feeling I have ever had in my life

"oh boy wetin happen to you today that makes you feel happy like this"Ekony said as he forcefully collected the Pot of Eba from Perry

"** I continued whistling**
" Guy talk to us now,se you don hammer abi you don Ferrari?"Perry asked as he continues to unwrap the third wrap of the finely prepared eba

"she takes away my heart,she is the one that occupies my brain, I just can't but think of her"i began to soliloquize
"it seems our friend is in love"Ekony said as she faces Perry who was already gulping down the last morsel of Eba in his hand
"Ehn Ehn, Pen-Brain now tell me about the lady that got over your head and turn you to a baby"Ekony said jokingly
"(faces Ekun and Perry) you guys can't understand,i said as I walk out on them after giving them a friendly pat on their shoulders
"Anyway lover boy come and take your own eba before Daniel comes,you know he's a lion when it comes to food" Ekony shouted behind me as he saw me entering the kitchen
"and I hope it's not that bitch that gat no respect for her *Baba okos*"Perry jokingly added

Right from that day that I and Lina spoke together we have been the best of friends,because we talk together like almost every blessed day both on WhatsApp and Facebook,to the extent that she is now free with me but she hasn't come to my house but we are best of friends
Later that night,my phone rang and seeing she is the one,i smiled
