MY RIDE OR DIE

I am Adaeze, the only child of my family in. A fresh secondary school graduate with 6 A and 3 B in my WAEC and total of 251 in my JAMB. My biggest wish is to gain admission into University of Calabar with my 2 best friends Ugomma and Adaku. we have been best friends from childhood and hope to be roommate in University. Ugomma is a very calm, smart, intelligent and beautiful lady, Adaku is like our mother. Very confident, smart and she feels like she is in charge while I on the other hand, am a very private person, I love to keep secrets and reveal them when I feel it's the right time. We have some best friends rules which includes doing everything together, no fighting, no dating until we are 18 and keeping our secrets within the 3 of us. These rules were put together by Adaku after Ugomma and I almost had a fight because she read my dairy . am not close to my mother but am very free with my dad though not as freer as I am with my best friends. My mother always wants things to go her way but I just want to be myself. While growing up, we were inseparable. We played together, went to school together, we shared our lunch and most weekends we all stay over in one person's house. Our parents knew each and was very comfortable with our friendship. My friends are very intelligent but somehow I always manage to top them with some points. My parent aren't rich, the are civil servants but we eat 3 square males without a flinch . Adaku's parent are very rich but Ugomma's parent are super wealth and the both never make me feel less. Ugomma always comes to school with chocolates for everyone while Adaku always brings lots of fruits because her mother is a nurse and she always tells us that fruits keeps us alive. We grew up in love from primary up to secondary school and now about going into the university. Ugomma will always say she can't wait to clock 18 because we are currently 17 and she has someone who she really likes but because she can't go against our rules, she kept him as a friend. His name is Daniel and he is far older than we are. This story is written and published by Augustine Favour
