         "Omo,John Boko dey crase oh,he is now having mind abi" Yomi exclaimed,banging our room door against the wall and making our arrival known to the full block.

          "Its not now we will answer that guy,leave his matter first. Make we chop" Sele suggested as he and Andrew plopped down on the cream tiled floor in Yomi's corner.

         "Where Temi say he dey go?" Yomi directed at me,joining Sele and Andrew on the floor. "They are preparing for J1 people na,him and Oghale have work" I explained to them.

         "Chai,ehya. Abeg make him no forget our match for evening o" Yomi told me as I got to straightening the black,with white polka dots sheets of my bed which I hadnt been able to do before I left.

         "Daryl,you get extra sauce? This bread dey do me dry dry" Andrew questioned,I noticed Collins take a seat on Yomi's bed as he did.

         Before I could give Andrew a reply,Yomi beat me to it. "This one wey carry all the  extra sauce for this life put for babe" Yomi hissed.

         "Ahah,new babe already? Who abeg?" Andrew questioned. "Shut up idiot,its not any new babe" I fired at Andrew.

         "Guy calm down na,no be fight o" Sele laughed. "Na girl dey make you vex like this?" Yomi added with a chuckle. Sometimes I wondered why I still kept Yomi as a friend.

         "What happened?" Temi's voice cut through our conversation as he walked into the hostel. "Omo,na babe dey make Daryl dey para o" Sele laughed.

         "Why una dey do like this na? I don talk anything about babe since?" I questioned,taking out a bucket from under my bed,placing a pillow on it and then using it as a chair.

         "Wait o,Daryl how far our bet na?" Collins finally spoke up,I felt my gaze grow fiery as I averted it to him. "Anytime you dey open mouth,na so so nonsense dey fall comot" I fired at him.

          "But deal is deal na,abi make we run check on Kainene..." I cut him off,feeling disgust creeping up my skin just hearing him talking that way about her. For the first time,I felt disgusted for actually subscribing to Collins's madness,I should never had agreed to his stupid bet.

         "Shut up guy,abi na 10k,I go give you. Just shut the fuck up" I told him. "Nawa o,Okay" Collins shrugged,not being able to hold back his happiness from winning our bet seeing how a smile graced his lips even though he tried to hold it back.

         "Nawa o,Collins you sef you no dey give up something?" Temi questioned,taking something out of his wardrobe which sat at the extreme end of the aisle of the room.

         "I no even know for the guy. Abi e don reach you Collins" Yomi added before taking a huge gulp from his tea mug. "Abeg,Daryl you don chop?" Sele questioned,turning to where I now lay on my bed in a white singlet and a pair of boxers as I'd taken off every other thing.
   
          "No abeg,I go chop later" I told him,shutting my eyes and willing myself to sleep. "You sure say you dey okay guy?" Temi questioned.

          "I dey okay abeg,I just wan sleep. You're going to auditorium right?" I questioned Temi. "Yeah,we have stuff to arrange" he told me.

         "Okay no wahala...Abeg you guys should wake me up by 10,Andrew you can take my sauce if you want" I suggested,feeling a slight pang in my head as I rested it down on my pillow.
