Sandra stretched her neck to see if she could sight Janet. She saw her, she stood there with Ene. Ene whispered something in Janet's ear and pointed at Sandra's direction. She wished Janet had told her she would be with Ene, she wouldn't have called her in the first place.
"Hey, girrrl. How are you? You look good". Ene said as she approached them. Everything about Ene, her loudness, the way she dragged her words, the way she touched people's shoulders like a seductress annoyed Sandra. Even her makeup, she always used an eye pencil to line her lips and then applied lip gloss on top.
"I'm fine". Sandra replied and faked a smile.
"I love your outfit, I want that dress". Janet complemented her.
"Awwww, thanks". Sandra replied. "We have physics in about an hour, right?"
"Yes, let's leave for the venue now before it gets full". Janet suggested. "So any plans for today?". She asked Sandra.
"Yeah, I'm supposed to go see Daniel today, he asked me to come".
"Who's that? Your boyfriend? So,you have a boyfriend?". Ene chipped in.
"Shut up". Janet said playfully "He's not her boyfriend. He's just a friend".
"Did I ask you? I didn't ask you".
"He's just a friend". Sandra replied sharply.
"Okay o, If you say so. I'll believe you...not this...goat". She hit Janet, Janet hit her back. They were hitting each other and people were staring at them. Sandra moved away from them. The way they played was too childish. They finally got to the class and Sandra was grateful, even though the class was full.

It was dark when she arrived at Daniel's house. He, just like David, lived in a two-bedroom apartment alone. She knocked on the door.
"Come inside". Came the voice from inside. She went in. She couldn't see him in the parlor. She sat on the couch.
"Daniel!!!". She screamed
"Sandra!!!". He screamed from wherever he was. She laughed.
"Come out now!!".
"I'm coming". He came out.
"Are you done coming, or are you going to come on me now? ". He laughed.
"You say the craziest stuffs but can't do shit". He was putting on a T-shirt. "You're afraid to have sex".
"I'm not afraid to have sex".
"Well, that's what you told me".
"Nope. I said I was afraid of falling for the wrong person". He started to say something but someone knocked.
"Who's that?". The person didn't reply, the door opened slowly, and in came David. She adjusted herself on the couch, her heart was beating fast. She was suddenly too aware of her appearance. She didn't hear them greet, didn't hear them shake hands, or anything they said until Daniel said, "See my girlfriend, you know her right?"
"Yeah". He was looking at her now. "Sandra, right?". She replied yes. There was no sound, but her lips moved.
"Let me get it". Daniel said and went into the room. She and David were alone. The silence made her feel awkward. She suddenly wished she had turned on the TV. She hoped he couldn't hear her heartbeat. He turned to her.
"You school in Unical too, right?"
"Yes". She nodded
"What department?"
"Nursing science".
"Okay". There was another awkward silence.
"And, you?". She gathered courage to ask.
"Also in Unical, faculty of engineering". He replied.
"oh, cool". Daniel came out. He gave him something wrapped in a nylon bag. They whispered some stuffs to each other.
"No problem". Daniel said to him. "I'll call him".
"Alright, Sandra...". David was looking at her, she was looking at him. "Take care".
"You too". She replied.
"You like him?". Daniel asked her as David left.
"Hmmm". She was smiling.
"I can hook you guys up, he's single".
"Nah... I don't want that".
"Why?". He was grinning.
"He's not my type".
