Decided to raheemat555 she has been lowkey supporting this Story. And she is one of the first few that started this book with me.

~Chloe~

Tired, that word tired, has are levels to it. And right now, I am in all the levels of tired physical, emotional, social and Psychological. I am just tired of everything, and what made me even more tired was the story Dorothy narrated to me 2days ago. How her life was just a huge mess right from birth, how she was the reason why Zoe found drugs in my bag the day we switched bags.

I groaned in annoyance wondering whether all this drama I had to go through In my life was because of the stupid cause  my biological mother placed on me. Come to think of it, now that Zoe and i we have successfully made contact with our biological parents has the cause been broke. I guess not because we are till leaving with Mr And Mrs Babajide who are still having issues getting their son out of jail, How long was it really going to take to fix this.

I am just glad that things are simily looking okay for us. At least I and Zoe were getting close and I am beginning to appreciate having a twin. I am also happy that the principal was lenient enough to have Zoe write her WAEC exam at home for a while, and when she was strong enough she joined us in school for the rest of the exam.

Dad was doing the best he could to make sure we had extra care and protection at the Babajide's house. There was always a Maximum of 15 at our house and at least 3 follow us to school. This is because now that the world knows that we are his kids we are easy targets for those who want to harm him. Especially those who are up against him in the presidential election .

Our biological Mom for some reason was off the grid, ever since she left our house that day. we never saw or heard form her again and I am beginning to think if she was human or just a ghost from the dead. I sigh, this was really too much for a 16 year old teenager to bear, to be honest it feel like the weight of the world is upon me. Where as it was just selfishness and unnecessary drama that was the cause of all this heartache and headache.

I sigh we were currently in a meeting and this time it wasn't the perfectship meeting  because  all the SS3 students where involved. Yes we were having a group meet after our chemistry and literature  exam so we could decide on a few things concerning Prom and Graduation. What we were talking about was color scheme and what kind of outfit we were was allowed to wear.

" I beg to defer but there is no way I am wearing white to prom. We are leaving secondary school not getting married."

Anike one of the art student said complaining. She is the leader of the girls football team so I run into her a lot as the sports prefect. Someone else raised up her hand and I gave her a cut nod as permission to speak.

" ehemm anika is right though. Personally I feel we should all go in black, not that it's not favorite color or anything but I feel it's to remember the loss of two of my classmates."

" umm Jessica that's what a funeral is for okay. We are definitely not wearing all black to prom, its not like someone is going to die or that day or something."

I responded to the girls statements and she just rolled her eyes at me to take her seat. I, Matilda and Joel were the ones Handling this meeting but fortunately we were not going anywhere with this argument and back-and-forth discussion. We been at it for 2 hours straight and I was hungry already. Literally everyone here in the class has been suggesting there favorite colors and the bigger half of the class room would reject it. Jodee raised her hands to speak and Matilda nodded at her to go on while I just smiled at her.

" hey if you don't mind , we can all wear yellow i Meant it's a really vibrant—"

"Noo! Oh Hell no not everyone can wear your favorite Colour. Not everyone would look good in it like you."

" well that's because you he Haven't tried it yet. And believe me, if you were open minded enough to try it you'll see how wonderful it lookes on you."

I groaned loudly into the microphone that I had somehow Forgotten Was in front of me. The whole place went quiet and Matilda glared at me in disgust, I rolled my eyes at her saying.

"Look. I am sorry guys, i am exhausted and this back and from on theme color is exhausting me further—"

"Oh yeah? Well do you have any better or dumb idea to throw at the table? Who knows it might not be soo dumb after all."

Said one the students from technical class. Is he for real right now, urgh I don't have time for bullies like him, so instead for responding to this foolish statement I just said.

" actually as a matter of fact I do have a better idea. How about we all dress in which ever Colour we want, blue, green, black, what ever color that soothe you and it please your skin. Just make sure you don't ware anything Too revealing, remember it's a prom night, you are not going to the club."

I said responding with all tone of finality and everyone cheered in response. Good they accepted my idea, i don't know why I or rather we all didn't think of this in the first place.

" ehem what about finance. What are we going to doing about that."

Someone asked from the crowd and I turned to the person knowing she had a point. How were we going to handle that  now, not having the strength to think about it I decided to throw it open.

" well how do we do it guys. Car wash, selling candies?"

I said but before I could make more suggestions, the whole Class revolted. Someone from  the art class stood up boldly saying him mind and brining up a better suggestion.

" ewwwww, gross. My mom had a catering business, i can call her to help out."

"My dad works in an interior decorating company, I am sure he would love to help."

"My aunt is a DJ and she has some killer tunes"

Two other people said one from commercial and the other from technical, I didn't know them by name but at least I knew there faces. Just like that we didn't have to deal with the finance aspect of it because everyone was bringing up suggestions that will solve the problem of finance. I and just relieved because I wasn't ready to start washing cars to raise funds for our prom. After all the things I've gone through this year I don't think I want to add this to it Biko, I just want to do prom  and graduate.

"Alright alright. Thank you, so a list will go round and if you know you have a contribution please write your name, phone and what you are contributing down."

I spoke into the microphone and Matilda past the list round, Joel whispered something to me that he Need to step out and I just nodded at him so he left. The list went round and we kept on discussing  about other things. Once the list got to me I spoke into the microphone again bring the meeting to a close.

We all left the class room most of us heading to the cafeteria because we just finish and exam 3 hours ago before the meeting. Some Stayed In class to eat the food they brought from home. I left the class room as well heading for the cafeteria but Matilda stoped me in my track Saying .

" you know, this school had peace when you mysteriously disappeared few days to our WAEC exam."

" Matilda, In case you haven't notice I am not scare of you or anyone for that matter. And if you aren't hungry then go and bother some who is actually sacred of you. I have a date with the cafeteria."

She was going to say something but then a Junior interrupted her. He was panting seriously which means what ever he wanted to say was important.

" senior. I'm sorry my seniors it's important. Senior Matilda it's your sister."

He said and I was shocked. Matilda had a younger sister and she goes here? I am baffled honestly and Matilda's change in dilemma say it all. This Junior was telling this truth Matilda does have a sister how was she soo good at hiding it.

"This conversation isn't over chloe."

Matilda said while gritting her teeth and pointing a finger at me, she followed the Junior to the Junior block, I just rolled my eyes ignoring the drama that was about to unfolding before me. I Headed for cafeteria, I am too hungry for all this drama, I need confirm beans and potato portage to step down first, so with that in mind I head to the cafeteria. I was disappointed when I got to there and found out that what I was craving for wasn't even on the menu today . Sigh I had to to settle for Fried rice at the end of the day, I had to eat it like that because I was hungry.

"Good afternoon everyone! Can I have your attention."

I heard Samuel Dawson's voice yell as I ended my lunch using pineapple juice to force it down. I really didn't like fried rice one bit But I didn't have much of a choice. Before I could continue my line of thought I heard Samuel Dawson yell into the microphone again saying.

" someone give me a 'C"

"C!!!"

"someone give me a 'H"

"H!!!"

People kept responding to his call giving him Moral support while I just kept quiet there observing . I Was trying to make sense of what was going on but nothing was coming to mind.

"someone give me a 'L"

"L!!!"

"someone give me a 'O"

"O!!!"

someone give me a 'E"

"E!!!"

"What does that spell?!?"

"Chloe!!!!"

O.m.g!!! That's my name, that's your name, my gawd he is talking to you, he is calling you!!!"

Oh shut up, you don't. have. prove. subconsciousness.

I was freaked out because even though I said my subconsciousness doesn't have prove I knew she was right. What was he doing, what is going on, and more importantly why is he looking at me with so much admiration and is that, love? Why is he looking at me with love in his eyes. Oh no, now will be a good time to Melt or at least disappear or something. Just like I feared he spoke the word, the words I have been avoiding for as long as I can remember.

" I love you Chloe, did I ever mention that.
un, deux, Trois, quatre, yeh,...

Did I mention that I'm in love with you?
And did I mention there's nothing I can do
And did I happen to say?
I dream of you everyday
But let me shout it out loud, if that's okay ay ay If that's okay (Hey!)

I met this girl that rocked my world like it's never been rocked
And now I'm living just for her and I won't never stop
I never thought that it could happen to a guy like me
But now look at what you've done, you got me down on my knees.

Because my love for you is ridiculous
I never knew
(Who knew?)
That it could be like this
My love for you is ridiculous
My love is R-I-D-I-C-U-L-O-U-S!
(R-I-D-I-C-U-L-O-U-S!)
It's (Ridiculous!)
Just (Ridiculous!)
And I would give my wealth away for just one kiss

Well did I mention that I'm in love with you
And did I mention there's nothing I can do
And did I happen to say?
I dream of you everyday
But let me shout it out loud, if that's okay ay ay (Yeah!) If that's okay

I gotta know which way to go, c'mon gimme a sign
You gotta show me that you're only ever gonna be mine
Don't want to go another minute livin' without you
Cause if your heart just isn't in it, I don't know what I'd do
Because my love for you is ridiculous
I never knew
(Who knew?)
That it could be like this
My love for you is ridiculous
My love is R-I-D-I-C-U-L-O-U-S!
(R-I-D-I-C-U-L-O-U-S!)

Chloe, I never thought loving you could happen to a guy like me. But now look at what you've done, you got me down on my knees...
Chloe please make me the happiest guy in Westley academy, and go to prom with me."

He was on one knee in front of me a Banquet of flowers in his handle. My heart beat had sky rocked at this point, Samuel, The Samuel Adedolapo Dawson, captain of so many sport teams, the sport prefect, boy and most importantly, my long time crush. I was overwhelmed with emotional I couldn't express. I want to say yes, I was supposed to say yes but my voice was caught up in my throat.

Say yes chloe, three letter words is all it takes!

My subconscious urged me but didn't speak, no words came out oof my mouth not matter how long I left it opened. So instead I did something else. Something I was so good at doing, I panicked and ran away. Out of the cafeteria and out the school, Thank goodness I  didn't bring  a bag to school today so it saved me the stress of going to my class to get it.
