It's Complicated

Above in the media is our lovely Amy❤️

I was in an unexplainably good mood the next morning. I woke up early so David didn't have to stress. After going through my morning routine, which I had to do more quietly since I had a new roommate, I skip downstairs to find mum and Nonso already having breakfast.

"Mummy, good morning" I greet, taking my favorite mug from the cupboard and placing it on the table.

"Good morning nwam (my child). At least you woke up early today."she says while I chuckled a little

"Nonso help me pass the corn flakes" I say taking in his appearance a little
He was already dressed in our schools uniform, his old one, which still looked good, and can I just say he looked extremely drool-worthy, like damn. No wonder those girls be tripping. His hair was cut neatly, the purple blazer fit him perfectly and the shirt inside looked like it was made just for him.

"You cannot say please" he replies just as expected but still passes the cornflakes. I make a face at him collecting it and filling up my cup.

After breakfast, I wear my backpack and go to dad's car to wait there for him. Nonso comes in sometime later with a small sling bag.

"Is that what you're taking to school" I ask him pointing at the bag confused.

"Yupp" he says confidently. Nawa o this boy lacks sense sha

"How will all your books fit in?" I ask gently like I was talking to a five year old.

He looks like he's deep in thought for a second but then covers it up with his former cocky expression.

"I have my ways"

Just then dad comes in and drives us to school

"Be good" he says dropping us off at the gate. The new guy from yesterday was now replaced by the more familiar face of our vice principal, Mr Waheed.

"Good morning sir." I greet and he hums in response.
"Good morning sir" I hear Nonso greet from beside me. I knew what was coming next so I just stepped sideways and continued on my way.

"Ahan! Nonso, my boy!! You are back! Where have you been?!!"

How predictable

That old man ehn...one day I'd call boys for him.

I still hear his loud laughter as I make my way into the compound. Anyway, my dearest friends, I have a feeling that's how the rest of today will go.

After a little thought, I decide to wait for Nonso so we could go in together. He'd appreciate that.

"Ah thank God. I thought you had already gone in"came a panting Nonso.

"Let's go fast. Assembly will soon start"

So we take the stairs while Nonso points out little things that had changed in the school. He also complained how they were yet to fix elevators in the school. Haha like that would ever happen.

Nonso was also an art student so we were headed in the same direction. We were finally in front of the class.

"Jesus is that Nonso" I recognize the voice of a junior student running past. He must have been loud because all heads immediately snap in our direction. Philips was the first to react

"Guyy mad o. I think say you no go come again. Na today your mates dey resume school abi?" he should I say shouts as he jumps from the locker he was sitting on to do that bro hug thing with Nonso. I figured he must have had them know about him coming back. You know...through social media.

"No mind am now" Samuel says while Steve laughs as they join in the greeting. Before I know it the whole class had gathered around the starboy.

I'm also here guys...thanks for noticing.

I huff as i make my way through the small crowd of ss3 art students that have never seen human being before.

Getting settled on my desk, I look around and notice Eniola and Joy aren't in the class. They always come early so they must be in school by now. I check their seats and sure enough their bags are placed beside them.

Now where could they possibly be? My first thought is the restroom because why not? So I head there and once again ladies and gentlemen I was right.

Eniola must have been the one who needed to use the bathroom because she was adjusting her skirt. Joy was just scowling.

"Ahem" i cough to get their attention. They immediately turn in my direction

"Ah ope o(thank God o) you came early today" Eniola says to me

"As if I used to come late. Was it not only yesterday? What happened to Aunty Joy?"

"Why didn't you tell us that your rubbish cousin was coming back?" Oh did I mention.. Joy and Nonso have some kind of beef. I think it's one-sided though because while Joy really hates Nonso, the latter just finds her entertaining. You need to see them while they're at it. It's always the highlight of my day. Eniola also finds it interesting.

"Good morning to you too" I reply with enough sarcasm. The bell rings and it's time for the assembly so we march down the stairs gisting and making noise about nothing in particular because well, that's how we roll.
