Collins dialled Gilbert’s number to fill him on. He was glad he was going untouched.

‘hello guy, how did it go?’ Gilbert asked immediately he picked the call.
‘good. I just drove out of the station. Luck was on my side oo. They were even waiting for the so called detective and i walked in, with my suit and all, mehn! If you see packaging!’ Collins said excitedly.
‘i trust you! So they are gone? Like gone for real?’
‘uh yes, they ate all. I waited for them to eat it all, then i left. You know if i had waited till….you know, it would have been implicating’
‘hope you carried all your stuffs sha?’
‘i left the f-----g briefcase and the food flask there mehn’
‘you did what? Guy you dey craze? Wetin dey do you?’
‘guy relax, this isnt new york or California, those ugly looking and pidgin speaking idiots on black wont even know that something life finger prints……’
‘forget finger prints my friend! What the heck are you talking about, you should have gone with everything! Yes, they might not do finger prints but you should have left not even a single evidence! You f----d up here dude, you really f----d up here, i must be sincere!’
‘calm down guy. Nothing is gonna happen. Meanwhile, what of your new babe Amy? Hope you are having the time of your life with her sha?’
‘oh shut up! Dont even try to tease me oo’
Collins laughed ‘okay but seriously, do you like her like, you love her the way you loved Alice or so?’
‘just shut up Collins. This isnt something for you to get involoved with’
‘dont break that girl’s heart Gilbert, no matter what, she doesnt deserve to suffer. She’s breaking up with her fiance just because of you. If she’s part of the plan, it isnt too late for her to go back to her fiance’
‘guy, mind your business na!’
‘i’m serious Gilbert, if you know you are yet to give up on Alice then…..’
‘bye!!’ Gilbert said and hung up.
Collins shook his head, he was done doing dirty jobs for Gilbert and this time, he meant it.

‘Maria, are you sure we should skeep shutting Abby out? You think its right?’ Susan asked.
‘that girl insulted me so she should pay for it.

I’ve not even started dealing with her, by the time i’m through with that stupid Alice, i would face Abby and trust me, she would run four fourty!’

Susan laughed ‘i hear you!’

Just then, she sighted Abby coming towards them from the chemistry lab.
‘she’s coming sef, its like she’s coming this way’ Susan said.

Maria scoffed ‘i doubt’
But when she raised her head again, she saw Abby right in front of her with an apologetic smile on her face.
‘hi girls’
Susan and Maria exchanged glances but ignored her.
‘can i seat with you guys?’
‘no!’ Maria snapped.
‘come on Maria, lets just make up already. Its been three months already, do you still want to continue keeping malice?’

Susan and Maria ignored her.

‘Maria. Susan. I’ve come to apologise for everything. I’m very sorry for everything. I….lets just get back together please. I will be so happy if we do’
Maria looked at her ‘sorry Abby, we dont need you. We dont need your friendship at all. We’ve been doing just fine these past three months without you and we can cope alright?’
‘haba Maria. Remember we’ve been friends since JSS1 oo. We’ve been best of friends. Just small quarel and you want us to go our seperate ways, its not fair oo’
‘look at who is saying its not fair. When you were busy running your mouth, calling Maria a fool, calling her different names, you never realised or rather should i say remembered that we’ve been friendss since JSS1 abi?’ Susan asked.
‘dont mind her. Tramp! Abeg Susan, lets go. This idiot here doesnt deserve our anger right now’
‘Maria, please now. I have changed, believe me i’m a changed person now and i regret all of my actions, i swear!’

Susan and Maria burst into an uncontrollable laughter ‘madam Maria!’ Susan snapped.
‘believe me Suzy, i have changed truly’
‘its okay, we’ve heard you. Just go first abeg, we’ve heard you’ Maria said amidst laughter.
‘yes, we’ve heard you. You’ve changed, let us change as well, then we can be friends again because now, we are yet to change!’ Susan said.
‘now you girls are mocking me. I know i did something wrong and i’m apologising. Is that so wrong huh?’ Abby asked.

Maria became serious ‘seriously Abby, you’ve over stayed your welcome, just walk out now that i’m still calm’
‘Maria, i…..’
‘NOW!’ Maria barked.

Abby looked at her, then Susan and walked away.

Maria felt her phone, which was well hidden in her school bag, vibrating. She went to the backyard, looked around and when she saw no one, brought it out ; Gilbert….
