"okay fine, I've money, so I'm going to eat, you can continue fasting " I said in mockery, while putting my books into my bag.

"How did I become friends with you, you're so stingy" she said in surprised then packed her books.

"hey, I'm not stingy, and I'm just trying to save money here. You know I like saving, and for your information, you fall in love with me at first sight, so you chose to be my friend. I said proudly while smiling.

she did not say anything and made her way out of the room and I followed.

She is the quiet one while I'm the noisy one. I'm not that noisy but I can disturbed the hell out of her sometimes.

We met and became friends during our first year, she was looking for our lectural hall since she did not attend the orientation for freshers (level 100 students), in the marketing department, also did not attend first lectures.

Flashback***

I arrived at campus today around 6: 30am and went to the canteen to eat breakfast before my first lectures start.

After I finished eating, I make my way to the marketing department building and spotted a lady, dressed in a professional attire,

like she's going for an interview with her phone in her hands, she was looking around.

I decided to pass by her and go to my class, since she is not my business.

As I got near to her, she said "Hello, good morning." with a calm expression.

"Good morning" I said with a smile, she is beautiful with her chocolate skin color and a brown braided hair in french curls, completing her skin tone.

"Please are you a student here" she asked, returning my smile.

"yeah" I nodded

"can you direct me to this venue, if you know there please." she said, showing me the timetable for my class with the venue at the top from her phone.

"yeah, that's my class, are you a student or TA." I asked in surprised.

"I'm a student and today is my first day of being in campus, so I'm kinda lost "

"ohh, we're doing the same programme and in the same lectural hall so let go " I said, asking her to follow me.

"really" she asked smiling.

I just nodded and lead the way to the hall.

End of flashback****

That's how we met and started being friends.

She doesn't know her way around the campus so she was always with me.

She acts like a my mom with her advices about the do and don't in life, that she always preach me with.

She is a responsible person, that's why I love her so much. She is like a sister to me, that's why I call her BAE ( Before Anyone Else).

We got to the canteen, bought our food,ate it there before going back for our next lecture.

Though, she said earlier that we would be fasting, she ate a lot of food than me and when I confronted her, she just brushed me off.

I paid for her food though, she insisted to pay for herself.

The next lecture was so boring to me that I didn't get anything that the lecturer taught about, even though I did my best to concentrate.

Research Methodology course just doesn't want to get into my brain and whatever the lecturer was saying seems to be like gibberish to me.

She even gave us a group work, that I later get to know the questions from Seyram because at some point, I slept.

The rest of the lectures went by in a blur and now it's time to go home. I couldn't be happier.

It's almost 5pm and I'm hungry and tired as h**l, since I didn't eat lunch.

I packed my books into my bag and bid farewell to Seyram and made my way to the bus stop.

I got home around 6:30pm and decides to freshing up before heating my leftover jollof rice that I have in my mini fridge to eat.
