Three

I walked back to the table and dropped the trays. I had teared the nylon on my potato chips before Gani started talking.

"Where's my own tray? Abi I don't deserve one?" Gani asked as I quickly stood up and took another tray before running back and giving Gani a tray.

"Did you see the new trousers online yesterday?" Temi asked excitedly.

"They are very expensive" Gani grumbled.

"I'll just tell Judas to get me one" Josie replied with an air of importance.

"Dare told me yesterday he's broke, so I can't ask him" Temi replied with a scowl.

"He's always broke" Temi added hissing loudly.

I chuckled inside, someone that got you a 12K set of bags not less than two weeks ago.

"Dump him nah" Gani sneered.

"I'm thinking about it too" Temi replied pulling down the nylon of the Yum Yum.

I pursed my lips not saying anything. Temi and Kunmi had boyfriends. Gani had a massive crush on Snr Tobi but he wouldn't even look her way. I remembered her saying she wouldn't date anyone except him.

Na sister you go be las las.

And as for Josie, her dream guy and her crush was well my crush too.

ADEWOLE-ADEDEJI  INIOLUWA.

He was BIC's pride. He and Snr Toke had crashed the National Mathematics Competition and he didn't miss not even one question. He was probably the next Senior Prefect. Tall, handsome and intelligent; he wasn't friendly much but a lot of people liked him.

I popped my potato chips into my mouth as my eyes traveled to where he was seated. He had a bottle of Coke and a nylon of chips on his tray. An SSS1 student had probably brought her classwork and he was explaining it to her.

His best friends Ife and SK were talking while Ini explained something to an SSS1 girl who had brought her notebook. Seeing how the girl was staring at him, I knew barely half of what she said would enter her head.

Ife was the least friendly of the trio. He was detached from others and didn't like relating with others. SK was the opposite. He was the most friendly of the trio, he had this smile that you make you go dizzy and all but SK was an infamous player.

He changed girlfriends faster than the way he changed his shirts. The longest his girlfriends lasted was a week and only a girl had lasted that long yet; they still swarmed around him.

Talk of pathetic.

I turned to my side and saw the girls after leaving. I quickly packed the trays and hurried after them.

"You are back to the real world?" Gani asked as I forced a smile.

"You were staring into space like an idiot" Josie added hissing.

"You guys didn't tell me you were going already" I said slowoy.

"Are you my mom?" Gani asked as I swallowed my saliva.

While Josie could insult someonw till the person cried, Gani's sarcastic comments could leave one distorted. I tried to avoid it but then; it was more like I was meant to receive it because no matter how I tried to avoid it, I ended up receiving a double portion.

"Rachel, please get me a bottle of water" Josie said turning to me as she stretched her meal card towards me.
