DORCAS MET KHEMI ALONG the hall and smiled at her,her smile so bright that you can see her thirty two teeth
"What's up?"Khemi asked turning around to see the grinning Dorcas
"You won't believe it! Jonah agreed to date me"Dorcas says and Khemi eyes widened like a saucepan
"What the... How? How did you do it? How did you convince him?"Khemi asked and Dorcas giggles
"It wasn't much of a convincing,he wanted help and I was ready to render it in exchange of dating me"Dorcas said and Khemi rolled her eyes turning away from her friend to dissolve the anger bubbling inside her
"Did you just hear yourself Dorcas?"Khemi asked and Dorcas got confused
"You mean?"
"I mean what the hell is that? How can you date someone like that,it felt like a business deal and I know this won't end up good for you,what help does he wants anyways?"Khemi asked
"He want me to help him deliver something to someone"
"What's that?"
"I don't know"Dorcas replied and Khemi face Palmed
"This is not good at all,Dorcas look at Jonah! He is not our spec,yes he is handsome and every girl's dream boyfriend but listen to the key word 'dream' he just like a celebrity we crush on and never get to date,please let Jonah go"Khemi plead
"You don't understand"
"I understand you perfectly"Khemi said holding her friend's two hands "it's just that sometimes the things we want are not good for us"
"Okay"Dorcas replied blinking a threatening tears away
"So,forget this let's continue our bestie stuffs and in future your own man will sweep you off your feet,huh?"Khemi asked wriggling her brows and Dorcas bursted out laughing
"Ok,I will do as you say"
"I love you"Khemi said hugging her and they walk hand in hand to the class

"Were you avoiding me?"Jonah asked stepping closer and she stepped back,her heart beat going wild
"No,why would I?"Dorcas replied sounding untrue to herself
"It seems like it,like right now"Jonah said pointing to the both of them and Dorcas saw how near he is in a short period,she stepped back and hit her back on the wall making Jonah to chuckle
"Are you scared of me?"he asked and Dorcas close her eyes,she's not scared but feeling something else, something she promised Khemi to keep at bay but right now she's slowly loosing her control,Jonah smirked knowing he had that effect on her and lean over brushing his lips with her's making her to gasp
