+Daniella+
When Bimbo and I got back to our room I narrated everything that had happened between Bolaji and me to her and unsurprisingly she laughed and couldn’t stop laughing till I punched her on her arm.
“What? It is funny” she said with a huge grin.
“So I need a new target,” I said hoping that she would not say anything to mock me.
“I knew you will finally come to your senses!” she squealed. I was wrong for hoping but again, this was what I liked about her. Always crazy, and jovial and finding new things to laugh about.
“Just get me a name, I don’t want to play him, just want to use him to get Bolaji Jealous,” I said before she got her hopes high.
“Tobi Daniel” she said with a content smile.
She put on her laptop and logged on to Facebook and went to his profile page. I smiled when I saw his picture
If Bolaji thinks that he can make me jealous, he is in for a shocker. I will make him miserably jealous. Oh, and before I forget, that lecturer’s life had to get ruined. He wants to play Alpha, right? Let’s see about that.
“Um Bimbo, can you help me get some basic information on one of my lecturers that I could use to damage his entire life at once?” Her mouth dropped as she tried to grasp what I had just said.
After staring at me for about two minutes she finally asked “Why?”
“He said something like this” I played the recording for her and she busted into a fit of laughter but this time I really didn’t find it funny, even the slightest bit.
“Didn’t he look at your face? It has virgin written all over it” Now I got why she was laughing.
“At least I don’t go about pretending to be what I’m not,” I said hoping my statement hurt her, and it did. She glared at me then huffed.
“I don’t act like I’m not a virgin, I just have fun! Come on Dan! Just because we both agreed to wait till we are married before we do the yucky! It does not mean that I should live in a shadow! Look at yourself! You are practically bored stiff twenty-four-seven! Do you know why I even agreed to this psycho sick game without thinking twice? Because it was the only fun Idea you had come up with since we made that pact!”
Wow! Talk about guilty conscience! I had nothing to say after her explosion, I mean I wanted my statement to hurt her but I didn’t expect it to hurt her that much, plus WOWZERZ! Hers hurt me more.
“I’m sorry,” I said pulling her into a hug.
“It’s okay.” She shrugged.
“No it’s not. I shouldn’t have said that to you.” I said releasing her from the hug.
“Don’t worry about it. Plus for a girl who never let emotions show, hugging me really shows you are sorry.” I felt my cheek light up. A good thing I am black. If not I would have been red like a tomato.
“Now what’s this talk about ruining someone’s life?” She squealed lighting up.

“Just think back and try guessing for the right student,” I smirked as I stood up to leave his office.
“Young man, do you think I am afraid?” He asked in a stern voice as I held the doorknob in an attempt to leave.
I slowly turned around to face him and said in my most serious face ever and a serious voice too “You should be.” For a moment I saw fear glitter in his eyes then I added before turning around to leave “This is the last time you would see me in your office. Even the fiercest of hunters do not attack the lioness when her lion is around and hungry.”
That was actually a proverb my father once taught me, he actually meant it in the business sense. Something about noticing the advantages of your opponents then ‘strategising a way around them before you strike. But as ironic or funny as it may sound that proverb really suited this………. Situation. And knowing must professors he would put a thousand meanings into it and will probably scare himself more than I intended to.
Or he could want to prove a point that he cannot be threatened and in that case, let’s just say money is always the best weapon.
As I got to the car park I saw the girl that Daniella had hugged the day before obviously flirting with a guy who was leaning on a black BMW, another girl stumped angrily towards the both of them and got in between them then kissed the guy. The first girl just turned around with a huge grin on her face as she said something I couldn’t hear due to the distance then strutted away from them coming towards me like a supermodel and then it clicked in my head. That must really be her best friend.
“Excuse me.” I said very politely as she was about to strut pass me “My name is Bolaji.”
“And I am Daniella” She stopped walking and turned around like a model which was actually the opposite of how Dan turned around to face you. Dan looked really cute when she did that but she just looked daring and hot and why did she just tell me that her name was Daniella?
“You look nothing like her. Bimbo” I smirked as I saw a surprised expression on her face before it was replaced with a smile.
“So did she tell you anything about me or did you notice my id card sticking out of my chest pocket?” She asked still with that gorgeous smile. The difference between the two of them was too clear.
“I saw the id card. She never said anything physical about you” I said as I put my hand forward for a shake.
She glanced at my hand then my face and an annoyed look took over her face as she furrowed her brow “You are smart” she then turned back around while adding “No wonder she, I don’t like smart people.”
I watched her as she entered her faculty and when I was sure she had gotten into her classroom I dialled Ikem’s number.
“Hey, guy awfa?” I greeted.
“Check this out! Mr. Okon is not only married, but he also has three children. And mind you, his eldest child, a feline, is hot!” His voice said with so much enthusiasm that I just had to smile.
“And what about his wife?”
“She is a big-time lawyer”
“So what else do you know of him?”
“He is a dog, that old guy has slept with half plus one-third of the girls in the Business admin department. He is also a member of those people that love to expel students”
“Wow!”
“And guess what else?”
“What?”
“He is a pastor too!”
“Okay, thoughts like that disturb my Christian faith. But a good thing the bible warned against Bar-Jesus.”
“It’s sick right?”
“Um, so what of Daniella?”
“She has very little on her profile, she loves everything but not everyone, she comes from a modest family background; not too rich and not too average, she has a best friend in this school but never had a boyfriend in this school, there is little information on her physical. Like she doesn’t have a life.”
“Oh.”
“But I could look-up on her personality.”
“No thanks. I will like to figure that on my own. But, check on her best friend, Bimbo.”
“Sure man.”
“Hey, one day you will make an excellent NSS senior agent, or maybe FBI. You might even be the one to bring a change to the whole Nigerian Information system.” I said teasingly.
“Or I would supply underground information to people and organizations who are willing to pay the fee.” He said from the other end of the line and I could tell that he was smiling.
“That would be more exciting.” I smiled then cut the phone.
As I walked to my classroom my mind raced back to Bimbo and her last statement before she ‘strutted off’. What was it that she was going to say before she said that she didn’t like smart people?
