685 Words
"Oh s**t "I muttered to myself.
It's really going to be a tough time here.
I just found a crush and it has already been taken away from me by a strong opponent .
I guess Jeremy saw how upset I became instantly when I heard the news.
He laughed and patted me on my shoulder
"Don't worry fam, they'll soon break up"
"What do you mean ?"
"They've been fighting a lot lately and don't usually hangout like before, infact their relationship is now sour"
"Oh ok" I said shyly while trying to suppress my joy from outbursting
"Haha look at u. So you're happy they are going to break up?"
"Lol, not really Sha"
"FYI fam, their breaking up is just my prediction *
"Pardon?"
"Gotcha. I knew u have a crush on Dera, but don't get scared my prediction always come through and..."
"OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” a girl screamed and everyone rushed to her except Jeremy and I and of course Henry, to know what her problem was.
They looked at her phone, and looked at me and they all began to gossip.
With the way they were staring at me it was obvious they were actually gossiping about me and I got scared.
While this drama was going on, it was only Jennifer who was bold enough to approach me.
"Buchi right?"
"Yes" I answered kinda perplexed
"You're the only person in this school whom Cassanova16 follows on **. But you're just a transfer student , so how did it happen ?"
"Wait who is Cassanova16?" I asked in genuine surprise
"What the f**k ....man don't tell me you don't know Cassanova16 " Jeremy cut in.
I kept mute and just stared at them sheepishly
"f**k man ... Cassanova16 . This guy is a very good author. He rose to fame because of his hit novel Cassanova16 , titled in his name. Does that ring a bell?
**
It wasn't like I didn't know Cassanova16.
I was confused as at how he had become a celebrity in Bright Future
Cassanova was just an ordinary guy. A friend I met in a w******p group chat.
We met for the first time in a get together. Then a couple more times till we eventually became friends
Obviously the Cassanova I know and the one they were talking about was the same person.
I too had come across his book by chance.
It had even been a very long time since I addressed him as 'Cassanova'. I was now fond on calling him by his name.
**
"C'mon handsome, tell us how u know him" Jennifer pressed at me sternly
"Wait, guys hol'up, hol'up, hol'up . How do you guys even know Ebube?" I asked. obviously a dumb question.
"He even knows Cassanova16 by his name. They must definitely be tight hommies" one of them said
"so tell us man how do you know him?" Another guy interupted
It was tiring tho, but I explained to them how I met Ebube.
After I narrated my story to them, they all began to ask for his number which I didn't give cuz I felt like it was kinda wrong to do that and they all scattered away angrily except Jennifer
"I knew there was something special and odd about you.
You aren't just an ordinary transfer student. Either ways can I have your w******p number and f******k username" she said while pulling out her Galaxy S10+
Which I gave her and watched her save my number as "HANDSOME "
She asked for my phone and I gave it to her.
She was excited when she found out we were both using the same phone and began to blabber about how we could possibly be soulmates .
She saved her number in my phone as SUGAR, and took a quick selfie of us and uploaded it on her 12million followers ** account, JENNY_ICE and tagged me.
She thanked me and planted an unexpected kiss on my lips and went back to her seat
I was kinda surprised and looked around just to find Dera throwing muderous looks at me like someone who spotted a thief that deserved to be killed
"What the ?..."
