Sofia and Lola walked into Ciara's class as they approached her.
"Hey Babe!" Lola said as she patted her hair.
"How are you doing?" Lola asked as she sat close to her.
"I'm good and you?" She answered as she stared at them suspiciously.
"What's going on here? You got anything to tell me?" She asked as they stared at each other.
"Will someone say something?"
"Um... Well! Sofia got something to tell you" Lola said pinching Sofia.
"Okay, fine! Greg wants you to come over to his place!" She dropped the bombshell.
"What?! His place? How many times have I told you girls that am ain't gonna visit Greg or any guy in school?"
"Look, Ciara! Greg needs you by his side, he's I'll, seriously I'll and deserve great care"
"Really? Well... Sorry to burst your bubble, I am not ready to go to his place, I mean, I'm not going anywhere with you girls!"
"Okay, fine! We'll go with you okay? We're going there together" Lola said as she touched her cheek.
"Are you sure about this?"
"Yeah, Babe!" Sofia replied smiling and Ciara smiled too.
"Okay, Girls! We all set to Greg house after school, Deal?" Lola said excitedly.
"Deal!" Sofia replied excited too, they both stared at Ciara who didn't say a word.
"Huh?" They both said and she smiled.
"Deal" she said in a weak tone.
"Okay then, catch you later, Babe!" Sofia said as they waved her goodbye.
She just sat down there staring at the board.
"Boring class!" She said out of breath as she rested her head on her desk.

Ciara climbed down the stairs hurriedly when she ran into Lola and Sofia.
"Hey, Where are you hurrying off to?" Sofia asked.
"Home!" She said as they stared at her.
"You don't remember anything?" Sofia asked her staring deeper.
"What?" She asked confused.
"We are going to see Greg today remember?"
"Oh!" She didn't even think of it, she almost forgot, she laughed.
They discussed along side with each other as they strolled down the school street.
"So... What kinda sickness is he suffering from?" Ciara asked as the two girls stopped to look at each other for a while.
"Don't tell me you don't know" She smiled halfway looking at them not believing her eyes.
"No Ciara, don't see it that way, it's just...
A car pulled up right in front of them.
"Oh-oh! It's my mom, sorry, I can't go with you girls today, maybe next time" She started approaching the car.
"But Ciara... You can tell her that...
"Sorry but I can't lie to my mom!" She said stopping and turning back.
"We are not saying you should like to her...
"Should I tell her the truth then?"
The two of them stared at her for a while.
"Good-bye Girls!" She waved them as she got close to the car, her mother wound down the glass.
"Hey, Girls!" She greeted them.
"Hi, Mrs Ann" They both answered .
"Would you like me to drop you off?"
"No, Mrs Ann, we're okay!" Lola said.
"Sure?"
"Yes, Mrs Ann!" They both chorused.
"Okay then, see ya tomorrow" She said as the car leapt into life.
"She's so naughty!" Lola said
"You don't blame her, she's still a baby"
"Baby my foot! She's our age mate, Sofia!" Lola said angrily as she walked on.
"Hey Lola, Don't be stupid!"
"Whatever! Greg is gonna be mad!"
"Tomorrow is another day" Sofia sang as she ran to catch up with her.

"So, how was your study today in class?" Ann asked her.
"Okay, mom" she looked out of the window.
"Ciara..." Her mother called to her softly. "You had a fight with your friends?"
"No"
"You sound cold!" She yelled.
"I'm okay, mom!" She said angrily as her mom stared at her suprisingly.
"Ciara!" She yelled as she slowed down the pace of the car and drove into the garage. "You're behaving strange and reacting unnecessarily, I don't get it!"
"You're not the one who is allowed to react to things, mom!"
"But you're bahaving stra...
"You've always got nothing right, mom!"
"Ciara... She called softly.
"Ciara..." She called softly
"Just let me be, mom" She said as she quickly alighted from the car.
"But...
"Ann!" She screamed as she stopped and watched her mother closely walk up to her.
"You were not like this when you left for school this morning"
"I'm sorry, mom! I just need some quiet" she ran inside the house and up the stairs to her room.
"Ciara...." She heard her mom call out to her, she quickly shut the door.
Her mother followed suite and ran upstairs too.
"Ciara, open the door, please!" She knocked on the door as she turned the door knob and was sure Ciara had locked it from inside.
"Hey! Open the door, okay?" She stood there for some minutes and yelled all the time but all to no avail until Hudson comes running up to her.
"Mom, what's wrong with Ciara?"
"i have no idea but I'm sure she must be shedding tears now!" She heaved a sigh.
"Dont worry, mom, I'll handle it" Hudson wanted to knock on the door when she held him back.
"Hudson...." She held his hand.
"Shes your little sister, you know how to talk to her" She said and felt like crying.
"Yeah, mom!" He knocked on the door again.
Ann climbed down the stairs.
"Ciara dear, open the door" He could hear her sobbing from inside.
"Ciara, my love! Open up please!" He pleaded and leaned against the door.
"This is not right, Ciara!" He whispered but to her hearing.
Suddenly, the door burst open and he almost gave way to the ground and she shut the door.
"Ouch!" He yelled "That would have really hurt a lot!" She walked past him and sat down on her bed.
"i don't care!" She said as he too, sat down with her.
"Ciara..." He started slowly.
"You shouldn't be doing all this!"
"What am I doing?"
"This is all about Greg, right?"
"i don't know!"
"See... I know he's the reason behind this, you don't like him but you do" She turned to look at him. "Yeah, you kinda do" She looked away.
"Give him a chance and let him....
"Have sex with me?" SHE YELLED.
****
"Have sex with me?" SHE YELLED.
"Yeah, Sist!" She looked at him in awe.
"Like seriously?"
"Sex is the most sweetest thing ever as long as it's done real, you need to give it a try, Dearie!" He said as he heaved a sigh. "Kissing, caressing, romancing, fingering, blow job, giving heads and having sexual intercourse is the best thing that can ever happen to you, Ciara"
"But, what about my...
"I lost my Virginity at 16 and I never regretted it, I know you won't either"
"Hudson?!"
"Ciara, go for it!" He smiled and she smiled too.
"You won't regret it... Remember it's the sweetest thing ever!" He laughed silently as she stood up.
"i think I love Greg"
"No..." He smiled "You shouldn't think you do, you know you do" he said as she ran towards the door, opened it and down the stairs, she went!
Her mother saw her run past and called out to her.
"I'm fine, mom, I'll be back soon!" She shouted as she ran outside the compound, she took a taxi and off she went!
