Ibk walked into the sitting room and slumped into a chair. Her sisters didn’t bother to glance at her as they continued watching the movie playing on the screen.

“Which movie is this?” Ibk asked.

“Crash Landing on You” Nife replied and Ibk quickly sat up.

“What episode is this?” Ibk asked.

“We just started” Nife replied as Ibk hurried up the stairs. She hurriedly pulled off her uniform and sneakers. She grabbed a pair of shorts from her wardrobe and a small top before hurrying back to the sitting room.

She sat down while trying to wear her blouse. She finally wore her blouse as she sat down, her eyes trained on the movie.

“What’s has happened?” Ibk asked as Nife leaned closer to her to explain what had happened in the previous scenes.

“Okay” Ibk nodded as Nife explained, her eyes on the Tv at the same time.

Ibk turned to Toluwanimi as she remembered something “Has the list come out?” Ibukun asked and Nifemi laughed.

“You just remembered since ehn?” she asked and Ibukun gives a small smile.

“It came out after some minutes you left for school” Toluwanimi replied nonchalantly.

“Her name was the third name on the merit list” Tosinmile added and Ibukun’s eyes lit up excited.

“Awwn…... I’m so happy for you” Ibukun said and Toluwanmi rolled her eyes.

“Those crazy people gave us a week and half to resume” Toluwanimi said and Ibukun laughed again.

“It’s not as if you don’t know that, that is Danish University style. They release list this week, their students resume the following week” Ibukun said and Nifemi yawned.

“I have start shopping and I hate shopping” Toluwanimi said as Ibukun coiled her hand around her elder sister’s.

“Don’t worry. You know I have high fashion sense ehn, I’ll go with you” Ibukun said as Nifemi raised an eyebrow at her.

“Is that your own way of saying that you need new clothes?” Toluwanimi asked while Tosinmile and Nifemi burst into laughter and Ibukun sneered at Tosinmile as she released her hand.

“You are annoyingly sarcastic” she said as she brought out her phone.

Ibukun put on her data connection and started swiping through twitter posts. Her eyes suddenly widened and she yelled out.

“What is it again?” Tosinmile asked and Ibukun turned to her, her beautiful eyes shining.

“Lashe also got admitted into a university!” Ibukun said and Toluwanimi shook her head.

“You need help” she muttered while Ibukun ignored her.

“He made a post about five hours ago and there’s over five hundred thousand shares and forwards. Everyone is congratulating him” Ibukun continued rambling with happiness.

“Which university did he get into?” Tosinmile asked and Ibukun shrugged.

“He didn’t say” Ibukun replied and Tosinmile nodded.

“That’s why I prefer him over those teen artists. He keeps his private life private” Tosinmile said and Ibukun smiled.

“He’s smart isn’t it?” she asked and Nifemi shook her head at all.

“There are moments that when you talk about him; I almost think you guys are close or something” Nifemi said as everyone burst into laughter.

“We are actually close yunno? In the fan world, you say I am one of his biggest fan” Ibukun laughed while Nifemi sneered.

“Sha be wasting money to be buying stupid merch. You’ll be stalking the poor boy” Nifemi replied and the girls burst into laughter again.

“For your info, my channel is soon going to have a million subscribers. Do you know what happens when you get a million subscribers on your channel on YouTube? You get paid” Ibukun said a deadpan expression on her face.

“Ohh, I get paid for stalking the small boy and everyone continues to watch my videos. Let’s see if I will give you money when you ask and start begging for it. She let my subscribers reach one million” Ibukun added and Tosinmile fell to the floor laughing heartily.

“Ibukun oo “she said amidst laugh.

“Let’s see if I will ask you for money” Nifemi retorted and Ibukun nodded.

“Shey everybody is listening? Sis Nife said she won’t ask me for money o” Ibukun said before turning back to Nifemi.

“Even if you want to buy card and it remains ten naira, don’t ask me for money o” Ibukun said and Toluwanimi smacked her on her shoulder.

“Shut up awey” Toluwanimi said also laughing.

Ibukun snickered before standing up and walking towards her room. The shares and comments on Lashe’s post was increasing by the minute and Ibukun grinned as she sat in front of her computer.

“Lashe is so popular” she said to herself as she picked one of Lashe’s picture and started editing it. She reached for her phone and clicked on an album before clicking shuffle through the album.

Lashe’s voice was soon heard from the phone and Ibukun smiled as she finished editing the picture. She quickly sent it to her phone and uploaded it on Instagram congratulating Lashe.

Her post had over 100 likes thirty minutes, the comments were piling and Ibukun folded her lips and she internally prayed for Lashe to see it. She had always tagged him in all her posts and prayed this way but God had always deemed it fit not to answer her silly prayer has Toluwanimi had always said.

Ibukun groaned as she fell on the bed sighing. She had waited for almost an hour and hadn’t seen anything. Her post already had over a thousand likes and over 400 comments and it kept increasing.

Ibukun scrolled through her phone trying to scourge for news about Lashe’s school but nobody seemed to know the school he got chosen in or his course. A lot of people were asking but there was no one to give them a reply.

Ibukun put off her data and pulled her covers over herself. As she prayed, she didn’t forget to pray for Lashe before she dozed off not even finishing her prayers.
