We all know it was a shitty date, but it was clearly now my fault... was it ? I don't remember, okay. It's been over 2weeks now. Any way the twins and I talked about it especially how he keeps avoiding me. And sending late replies, that is so unlike the Luthando that worked so hard to win my heart— even though my heart was literally his every since he walked right into our chemistry lecture.

I miss those days when we were young and In love. Now he doesn't even text me I love you any more. It's so infuriating you know. Any ways point is I am heading over to see him today and for the sake of our relationship, he had better have a good reason for his behavior. And usual I was dressed for the occasion, casual but not too casual, comfy but just the right amount. " good luck on your big talk with luthando." Nora said.

" If you ever need a shoulder to cry on I'll be right" Sauda commented and I similes at them thankfully hopping I won't need it. Bracing myself for what is about to come, I headed out of the hostel to Luthando studio apartment. It was a stone throw away from main campus and I am glad i got here in 30 minutes.

" welp here goes nothing." I said covering my face to knock on the door of his apartment softly but he swayed his door open in less than a second a slight frown on his face. it took him a good 10 minutes to realized i was still out waiting for him to let me in. My hand were no longer covering my face. "ahh come in." he said opening the door wide enough for me to come in. a lot was in my head and in my heart so i didn't bother to look around at all to see the changes he made to his apartment. I had noticed a few empty boxs but right now, I needed to be focus.

"hey" i said after a minute of sitting directly opposite him in utter silence. it took a few mints for him to finally put his phone away to respond. " hey, whats up you said you wanted to talk. so.." I looked at him quietly for some time before saying. "Whats going on with you Luthando? you arent the same guy that did so much to win my heart a couple months ago. you have change so much and you certainly dont say i love you any more. whats wrong?" Iasked and he smiled, no not the sweet loving smile that make my butterflies flutter, but the kind of smile that i would want to have a pepper spray handy. yea that kind of smile.

"Skyler, look at you. just take a good look at pot calling kettle black. do you think you are the same Skyler that won my heart a couple months ago? " I looked at him dumfounded wondering what he was talking about. "Yea speechless that's what i thought, and here you are accusing me of not loving you anymore, how do you expect me to be in love with a self absolved hypocrite who thinks she is better than everyone including her boyfriend ?" okay it was at that point that I knew I need to come in .

"okay thats it! hold on, wait a minute. I never said i was better than you." He chuckled and said "Actions speak louder than words Skyler. and you my dear girlfriend, oops i mean, ex-girlfriend have been doing lot of actions that don't match your world. now if you have nothing better to say to me, then, I suggest you take your leave I have some packing and unpacking to do." He said standing up to head to the door when I suddenly yelled "wait !" he stopped in his tracks turned around to face me with a raised I brown.

"Are you breaking up with me ?"

"what do you think Genius?" he said his face void of emotion. I looked at him my eyes twitching in anger as the realizations of what he said dawned on me. he is actually breaking up with me? just like that before i could strategize my next move he spoke again saying "Are you going to let yourself out or should i do the honors ?" And that was all it too to tick me off

"You have some nerves boy! Calling me a hypocrite, please when did that one start?. I can be so many thing but i am definitely not a hypocrite, I am definitely not obnoxious and don't you dare blackmail into thinking I am the one at fault for all the shitty dates we had! if anyone's to blame its you not me.! " I yelled at him breathing heavily he chuckled and said "Says the girl who is always has a sarcastic comment to give on every couples outfit when you aren't dress any differently. look I have better things to do skyler are you leaving or not ?" He said a bored expression in his face as he headed to the door to open it.

i heaved a sigh at the break of tears but I held it in. I walked up to where he was and said "You are going to regret it Luthando. " and without another look at him I smashed the closes thing my hand could find which was a glass lamp that was close to the entrance. I left immediately not waiting for a response from him as I decided to take the next cab that passed in front of me. I took the cab back to the hostel and but befoI could even get back to my room my face was ruined in tears as they were pouring in torrent.

I was just so upset and angry at myself, I couldn't believe i let this get to me, as people that I passed by and saw me in that state, they keep asking me what was wrong. I didn't stop to talk to either of them. i just went straight up to my room hoping to meet Nora or sauda in the room but I was disappointed the room was empty same way I felt empty on the inside.

I didn't bother to clear my tears or change out of the clothes I just dived into my bed and cried myself to sleep.

I was busy running around attending lectures and handling babysitting duties because I didn't want my sister to think her daughter had been kidnapped again. Practically I had my hands full but apparently the universe didn't agree with me , because right now I was talking to my secondary school bestie who frankly I don't fuck with them like I used to any more.

Moral of the story, they want to come visit me; like I care, they want to visit O.A.U and they want me to give them a tour of the school. I'm in the middle of Sophomore's year; just because their school abroad gave them a summer break, that doesn't mean they gave us the same break "Tsk tsk you guys!"

"What? I think it's a fantastic idea don't you Antoni?" Molly asks and Antoni foolishly hummed along. " Look guy, now is not the right to visit, I have a lot on my table and I am going to be ignoring you, most of the time, if you don't mind that at all, then fine be my guest... you can come to O.A.U!" I said grudgingly but they were too stubborn to read between the lines.

"Well, that's fantastic because we would be in a plane flying down to O.A.U in 30 mins, see you in a bit bestie, byeee." Molly said and before I could process what she just said she hanged up on me. What? what does she mean 30 mins, whatever she can't-- they both can't get here in 30 mins. I said faking a baff when I recalled Molly calling me bestie, that is soo last season. 

I tossed my phone aside when it chimed again and I chose to ignore it. My subconscious mind was nagging me to check it, saying it was probably important but I shrugged it off because I had other things to deal with, like for once instead of ordering food, I was about to make something nice that I, my twin and her daughter could eat when they get back. Zoe had a very busy day today, I mean she is a lawyer in training when are they not busy, but asides that she had been contemplating whether or not to bring Serenity to Nathaniel's burial. 

I was of the option that she should because whether she likes it or not her daughter now knows that Joel isn't her father, Nathaniel is, and now that he is dead, she didn't want to traumatize her daughter with that news especially because they had a great 2 weeks together. It's a lot to process and it is understandable if she doesn't want Serenity to go for it. She doesn't have much of a choice but to decide because the burial is today. Sigh, setting aside the parboiled spaghetti, I was going to make spaghetti and egg sauce but I decided to mix it together, making it spaghetti jollof with meatballs.

Once I was done cooking, I went to my room to take a quick shower before settling down to work on some of my pending assignment. I was about to take my shower when my phone stated vibrating like crazy. I groaned in annoyance when I saw my WhatsApp buzzing with messages. 1000 messages from my class group chat, I was certain it was due to the overdose of class project and personal assignments that they gave us to do under a month. 36 messages from the Twin towers and I wonder what it is they were talking about.

There was never a dull moment in that group chat because something dey always sup and we dey always get time to gist. I was going to open it when I saw 5 messages and missed calls from Zoe, I was going to respond to her message but instead my phone started ring in my hands and her name popped up. I picked it up in a heartbeat placing it on my ear.

"Hey wassup."

"I'm going." she said and I immediately understood.

"Since I am all dressed in black from class and I already packed Serenity's cloth that she could decide to change in, I figure what have I got to lose. " I smiled at her even though she couldn't see me. She heaved a sigh and said "are you there?" it was then it dawned on me that I haven't said anything so I just responded "wise choice sis, do you need me to be there?" I asked and she didn't let me finish before saying. "Of course, I can't do this without you. I'll send you the address so please be there."

I smiled and said "sure let me just wash up real quick." She sighed and ended the call and I immediately went to pick out the perfect black outfit that was somber. I hopped into the bathroom to take a quick shower, while I was in the bathroom, I felt the urge to do a monkey business because it's been 2days since I last did one. Meanwhile, my phone was ringing like crazy and I regretted not putting it on silence. Took me an hour but I was finally done; but because my phone had suddenly gone quiet again, I had completely forgotten it was ringing, I just hurriedly got dressed, dished myself a few spoons of spaghetti to eat.

Once I was done, I picked up my phone and purse and then headed out. My phone was on 50 % so I had a little faith it could carry me to where I was headed. I opened my phone and saw 6 missed calls from Molly. I groaned in annoyance and made a mental not to call her back... opened my uber app, inputted the address of where Nathaniel's burial was going to be, and in less than 10 mins my ride arrived then I was well on my way; while chatting with Molly who by the way was very furious at me for not picking her calls.

If I remember correctly the wise words of Zoe Johnson from Grown-ish she said " all is fair in love and colleges" not that I know what it means or how she really said it but I can't keep wallowing in self-pity when my friends are out partying.

Speaking of parties, I am pretty sure there is one going on at The Splash right now. I picked up my phone to see if there is any news about it and sure as hell there was. The twin tower was raving about it, it must be where the twins are. I was about to reply to some of the messages they tagged me to when my twin bro called me.

"Sky sis, how are you. I haven't gotten the chance to see you this week. I've been feeling odd lately and it can only mean something is up with you." I smiled, I guess there is still one hot looking guy that would never break my heart. "Thanks bro, I'm good just woke up from a long nap. I should come out tonight." I said yawning, he was quiet as usual, probably trying to discern if I was telling the truth.

Don't give me that look, I can't tell my brother I and Luthando ended things at least not over the phone. "You coming for the party at The Splash right?" I asked and he answered saying " I won't miss it for the world. You wanna wear the match hoodies we both got last Christmas?" he asking knowing I hate it when we match but for some reason, I didn't mind at all. "You know I hate matching with you. But for some reason, I don't mind at all, it'll be nice to have someone to have my back." I said, and it was probably all he needed to confirm his suspicion.

"Okay something is definitely up with you and I'm going find out what is it." he said and I smiled again even though he couldn't see me. "Thanks, see you in a bit." I said and hanging up. I responded to the messages from the twin tower group saying I was going to meet them there. I respond to some other messages before going to hit the shower once I was done, I got dressed in legging, mini skirt boots, loop earrings bucket hat with no makeup and for the finishing touch, I put on the sweat shirt and headed out.

My brother was waiting for me at the entrance and he even spotted me first as he rushed over to me. I was more than happy to see him, I can't believe it's been over a week since I last saw him and we attend the same school, now I wonder what it was going to be like if we attended different schools... While I was lost in thought being grateful we attended the same school, he interrupted me with a bear hug. " I'm here Skyler, I'm here you can lean on me." Immediately I started crying again wondering how I was lucky enough to be blessed by this wonderful soul. He covered my face for me as we walked to a side so I could calm down and we could talk.

"What's wrong Bukunmi? it's soo unlike you to crumble at one-hug from me. It's usually the other way round." I sniffed and wiped my tears saying "nothing it's just I miss you" he did a double take at that statement and that made laugh as he said "you sef see, you talk something you dey laugh... Say the truth joor" I sighed for the hundredth time today. I looked at my brother who had his hands in mine looking at me expectantly, I took in a deep breath before saying "Fine, Luthando and I broke up!"

Immediately I said that I head the loud crash of something or someone falling. Soon after Jacob emerged from where ever he was, a cigarette on his lips. My brother not knowing who he was sprang up and took a protective stance in front of me. He didn't even spare me a place glance as he walked into the party. Did he hear what I said? I wonder for a minute before the idea of going to confront him came to my head.

I tapped my brother a little to get him to pipe down thankfully he obliged saying "come one I am sure you'll feel better when you hear some loud music."
He dragged me by the wrist and immediately we stepped into The Splash. The song No lie by Dua lipa and Sean Paul was blasting on loud speaker, sweat body sweating everywhere and that was how I somehow I lost my brother in the crowd as well as my will to stay sane well.

Completely unaware that I was being watched, I took a few shots as I begin to sway my body to the rhythm of the music sooner or later, I caught Jacobs staring at me and I smirked knowing fully well. It's definitely going to be lit tonight as I watched him approaching me.

Omo wahala be like person way no won deal with heart break ohhh
