Chapter Nine

" Babeee" Stephanie screamed after I picked her call. I don't understand why she would be calling in the middle of the night. I checked the time

12pm

" Why are you screaming and why aren't you sleeping yet?" I groaned

" And why are you also awake?" She retorted.

" I just finished a movie" I said smiling

" Well,I called you because I saw you were online. I was wondering what could you could be doing online at this time of the night. Tife told me not to call you but I did anyways" Stephanie said and I facepalmed myself.

" I just wanted to check for new messages before I sleep" I said smiling

" Is Tife there with you" I asked surprisedly

" Yes. We are in the sitting room. It's just both of us at home" Steph said

" Video call please" She said and I groaned, the call was disconnected before I could even protest. I switched on my data expecting her call.

I adjusted my hair bonnet and night wear before picking her call. Luckily for me the light in my room was on.

" Babe. Look at you" She said laughing.

" Steph, you have seen me like this countless times in the hostel" I said rolling my eyes. She was in regular clothes.

" Tife, come and see Wura" Stephanie shouted and I screamed internally

" Did you have to call him" I said shyly and pulled off my hair bonnet. Grandma had taken me to the hair dresser to make Ghana weaving earlier and the hairstyle is really pretty.

" Wura" She called

" What" I answered

" Why is it when I called Tife that you knew you will pull off your hair bonnet. So I can't see your new hairstyle too" She said with a playful frown, I chuckled silently

" Shebi you will still see it later" I said

" Tife, I said you should come and see Wura. She made a new hair" Stephanie said looking towards where he probably stood

" Where?" He asked

" Warehouse ni" She replied and I smiled at her banter.

" I don't have your time" He replied in the background

" Can't you see the phone in my hand. Video call" She said

" Hey Wura" Tife said with a smile after peeping into the phone.

" Hi Tife" I said smiling

" You look different. Oh your hair" He said, I smiled broadly

" Your hair is nice. You should do this kind of hair often. It makes your face more prominent and of course beautiful" He said and I twirled the braided part mindlessly.

" Honestly, that's the truth" Stephanie added

" Wura, can Stephanie come to spend the holiday with you. Please I'm tired of her troubles" Tife said pleadingly. I laughed, Steph pushed his head lightly

" She follows me everywhere. I don't know whether we are twins or something and she is also spending my money. Tife, I want to buy this, I want to buy that" Tife complained and I laughed.

" Well sorry, she stays in Ibadan" Stephanie said with a roll of eyes and I laughed.

" Really, you stay in Ibadan" Tife asked me
