GOLDEN HIGH SCHOOL*
The hallway was as busy as a subway, with the chatter and giggle from the students you can hardly hear a thing.
Allison walked over to Prudent as she rested her head on one of the locker staring at a direction.
” Hey, Ally what’s up?” Prudent said but Allison didn’t reply. It seems her mind was far from her and she was lost in staring.
Prudent rolled her eyes, she has known Allison to be the type who always fantasizes. Prudent was getting pissed already as she sIapped Allison on the shoulder.
” What’s wrong with you?!”
” Him, he’s the one making me go crazy.” Allison said as she pointed towards a direction of a guy.
” What?! You are not serious.” Prudent shook her head sideways, she still couldn’t believe that her friend was talking about Leo.
” Am damn serious, I like your brother… I’ve been telling you for more than a year now but you seem less bothered.”
” That’s because I don’t want you to date him.” Prudent said as she packed her hair in a bun. Ally furrowed her brows as she turned to Prudent.
” Why do you want me to date?”
” Because he’s a de.mon.” Prudent replied and she gasped. ” Besides he doesn’t have time for girls and even if you date him, he’s just gonna have a taste of you and ditch you.”
” Nah, I don’t buy that, you just don’t want me to date your brother.” She said with a frown and Prudent chuckled.
” Sure thing kiddo.”
” Oh, my God! We are age mates…stop calling me that, it’s frustrating.” Allison whined as she folded her hands under her bbs.
” Am three months older than you so…you’re like a kid sis to me.” Prudent said and Allison wanted to argue but was interrupted by the head teacher.
” I have an announcement to make,” The head teacher Mrs kipps said through the intercom and the noise dies down.
” Y’all know prom is approaching right? You should start picking your partners… That’s what I wanted to say. So get back to class.
Immediately the teacher stopped talking the students screamed, some where jumping while some where already talking to their partners. They want to enjoy every moment of this year’s prom and make it special.
” Whoa, did you hear that prudy? Prom is approaching…I need to ask Leo to be my date for prom, who knows some bad shit might happen.” Allison said as she licked her lips.
” Ewwwww…Gross… Stop thinking dirty.” Said Prudent with a crumpled face while Allison chuckled.
” Stop acting like a saint and let’s get to class.”
HIGH SCHOOL MOM : CHAPTER 21 – 40
****
Otto searched all over the place for Asha but he couldn’t find her. He searched the empty room and the washrooms but she was no where to be found.
Their school prom was approaching, so he wanted to ask Asha to be his partner, since they are so close and because he likes her, he knows it’s crazy but he found himself falling for her.
He was worried about her because she wasn’t looking too good when she arrived at school. Her eyes were all swollen like she’s been crying a lot. When he asked her, she said she was fine that her eyes were swollen because she’s been studying in the night.
He ran out of ideas as he searched the entire place but couldn’t find her. He roughed his hair and sweat was seen forming on his forehead already.
” Has she gone home?” He thought but then he smiled as he remembered where she might be. Without wasting much time he quickly left going to the garden. She had told him, she loves flowers a lot and that seeing lots of it takes her worries away for the time being.
He got there and met her crying as she bowed her head. He stood there for a while as he watched her, she was still beautiful, even much more beautiful as she cried.
‘ what could be wrong with her?’ he thought as he started walking towards her. When she raised her head to see him standing in front of her, she cleaned her tears.
” Otto, what are you doing here? You should be in class.” She uttered in a teary voice, her eyes have gotten swollen and her ears were all red as it came into view, since she packed her hair in a bun.
Without saying a word, Otto sat on the long bench close to her. He used his thumb to wipe the tears that are on her cheek.
” Why are you crying? Did something happen?” He asked and she shook her head sideways.
” Nothing happened, I just yawned that’s why am crying… Isn’t that crazy?” She said beaming widely.
” It’s not crazy, stop lying to me. Now answer my question, did something happen?”
” I shut him out… He apologised but I couldn’t forgive him, it’s hard Josh, it’s very hard to let go off my past sufferings.” She stated and her eyes welled up in tears.
” Are you talking about your daughter’s dad?”
” Yes, he showed up at my house yesterday, I just can’t bring myself to forgive him… The scars are too deep.” Asha sobbed and Otto smiled as he stared into her electric blue eye balls.
” You know if you don’t forgive him, you are being selfish.” He said and she looked at her.
” You are only thinking about yourself and it’s selfishness. Have you thought about your daughter’s happiness? You are the one who told me that she needs her dad right? Even if you can’t forgive, find a place in your heart to do so… Just for your daughter’s sake.”
Asha closed her eyes and sobbed silently.
” I don’t know Otto, I don’t think I can.”
” You can, just for Tara’s sake ok?” Otto said and pulled her close to himself. He hugged her and started patting her back while she cried on his shoulder. He has always known from the start that the rightful guy would come for her and he had no choice than to let her go.

HONEY SALT’S KITCHEN*
Josh laughed so much that tears cane out of his eyes. This little girl in front of him was very funny and he loved her smartness.
” Uncle you are crying… Why?” Little Tara asked as she pointed at Josh’s face.
” Am not crying… It’s just tears of Joy.” Josh replied and she hmmmed.
He was in the restaurant waiting for Asha, he wanted to sort things out with her and he wouldn’t go home until he accomplished what he came for. Mean while waiting for Asha he met this little cutie and she made him laugh a lot.
” So, tell me, what’s your name?” He asked.
” My name is Tara.”
” That’s such a sweet name, who named you?” He asked again and she smiled showing her little gap teeth. Josh smiled when he saw her gap teeth, it reminded him of his mom and he loves it.
Tara was about to reply when she saw her mom and smiled. She quickly jumped off the chair and ran to her mom hugging her tightly.
Josh turned around and was shocked by what he saw… The girl he was talking to was called Asha mom… Which means she’s his daughter.
” Go meet Aunt lucy ok?” Asha uttered and Tara ran to where lucy was working.
Asha walked over to the table and sat opposite Josh.
” So, Tara is my daughter?” Josh asked and Asha rolled her eyes.
‘ After four years, you are now claiming to own a child.’ Asha thought before replying him with a hmmm.
” What are you doing here?” She asked and he stretched fort his hand.
” Can I have my pendant back?” He asked instead and she replied with a hmmm.
She opened her bag and brought out the pendant. She kept it on the table and shifted it to his front.
Josh carried the pendant and stood up. He walked to her back and wore it on her neck which caught her by surprise.
” It looks beautiful on you” he said and she smiled.
” Why did you give it back to me?”
” Because I like you…I know it sounds crazy but I do…. Am gradually falling for you.” He explained and she bowed down her head.
” But I don’t like you.”
” I can make you like me, why don’t we start from scratch…ok let’s take do it this way…am asking you out… just give me a reply.”
” Can we start all over…from scratch?” He asked and her eyes widened in shock.
