Semiloore rested her back on her chair, "She's really going easy on him"

"Huh?"

"Tamiloore"

"She's really good" Maria replied.

"You never mentioned she was this good in debating"

Semiloore shrugged "You even haven't seen her debate yet"

"Huh? What's she doing right now?" Maria asked.

"What does it seem like she's doing?"

"Debating of course"

"Why are you nah saying we haven't even seen her debate?"

"You won't understand now" Semiloore said.

"Jeez,there's a tie"

"Whoa! Another debate"

"Another debate?"

"Yes. Whenever there's a tie in debates in Oxford another debate is scheduled"

"That's classic" Semiloore said.

Tamiloore wore a smile as Akin and his friends approached her.

"Whoa! That was hot" one of them said and Tamiloore smiled in reply.

"You never said you were this good" Akin said.

"When I told you I was good enough you won't believe me" Tamiloore replied.

Akin laughed softly "Happy birthday"

"Thank you"

"Happy birthday"

"Happy birthday"

"I see you went easy on him" Semiloore said.

Tamiloore pushed Semiloore playfully "He's a special person to me after all I can't just crush him"

"What about the next debate?" Semiloore asked.

"You'll let him win? A lot of people put their hopes in you" she added.

"I'll find a way okay?"

"Okay"

"Nathaniel, did you talk to him?" Tamiloore asked.

"He isn't even acknowledging my existence" Semiloore replied.

"I heard from Peter that he spoke a lot during the class birthday wishes for you"

"He did talk that I'm so guilt tripped right now. I don't even know if I should approach him"

"Why not?"

"He's scaring me"

Tamiloore raised her eyebrow, "I've got History class see you"

"A birthday party?" Semiloore asked.

"Please,my girls are clocking sixteen they should have a birthday party"

"Mom, da....... "

"What if he's not? You are happy as it is? Tell your friends you have a birthday party on Saturday. Don't worry,I'll plan everything. Just get clothes and shoes okay?"

"Yes ma"

Semiloore hurriedly brought out Nathaniel's gift. She had separated it from others to avoid her looking for it.

She quickly tore the wrapper off as a small box came into view. She opened it and her brows furrowed.

Nothing was inside except a flash drive. She opened her laptop and inserted the flash drive. The flash drive was saved with her name. She clicked on it open and there were two folders.

She clicked on the first one as her jaw dropped. Every single picture that Nathaniel had taken of her was there. Avoid 300 pictures. And also videos.

Most of the pictures she didn't even know he was snapping her. She kept clicking and clicking and she closed the folder and opened the second one.

This time around her hands flew to her mouth. While on the trip a number of films had come out so she told Nath she was going to download them when she got home. Nath had downloaded every single film she had told him with their complete episodes.

Even one of the films he downloaded had 80 episodes. Guilt engulfed her as she climbed her bed and coiled.

What had she done? She still even didn't know why she had yelled at him. He was just teasing her and yet her temper had to show itself and she had yelled at him. Remembering a few of his words,she remembered him saying he didn't like being yelled at.

Her hands flew to her fave as tears streamed down her cheeks. She suddenly started grasping for breadth as her hand quickly reached for her bedside wardrobe trying as much as she could,she fell down.

"Where's Nathan?" Mrs Oladele asked.

Adam eyes went upstairs "In his room"

"His room again?"

"Yes"

"What's wrong with this boy again eh?"

"He has being like that since Saturday"

Mrs Oladele walked upstairs and knocked gently on the door. Nathaniel opened soon after.

"Mom"

"Can I come in?" She asked.

Nathaniel opened the door widely as she stepped into the ever neat room. She sat on the bed while Nath sat on the chair.

"Are you okay?" She asked.

"Yeah"

"Nathaniel,no you are not"

Nathaniel turned back to his books while his mom stared at him.

"What happened?"

Nathaniel didn't reply as he continued flipping his note book pages.

"Nath?"

"I ran out of words and I couldn't even continue the conversation so I tried teasing her if it would work but I ended up annoying her"

"Semiloore?" His mom asked.

Nathaniel turned to him mom in surprise "How did you know?"

"You are my son and besides you snapped a lot of pictures of her on your camera" his mom said.

"You went through my camera?"Nathaniel asked.

"Sorry about that,just wanted to check through your pictures"

"Its fine"

"Its okay"

Nathaniel smiled a little "I've never done this before, I am not like Adam who can talk to girls for hours without repeating the same sentence"

"Its okay" his mom said pulling him into a hug.

"Today is her and her twin sister birthday actually"

"Is that so?"

"Yes"

"Take a break okay?"

Nathaniel scrolled across his whatsapp status again. Everyone was posting Semiloore and Tamiloore. Even people he didn't know knew her.

Half of his friends if not all knew the both of them. How?? It has been barely two months since they moved to Akure.

She just couldn't know them all because they all posted like she was familiar with them. Facebook and Instagram was not spared either. If there were people who didn't know the both of them;might be wondering if they were celebrities.

As he scrolled through twitter,a number of people had also wished them and slowly it was trending. Nathaniel's eyes widened when he saw Cowbellpedia wishing them happy birthday.

He sighed as he dropped his phone,  "I'm afraid I don't even know who you are anymore?"

Semiloore and Tamiloore had invited everyone in SSS2 to their birthday party. Semiloore invited the football team too.

"Saturday right?"

"Hmmmm"

"Are you guys fighting?" Joshua asked.

Nathaniel didn't even acknowledge him as he kept on writing in his jotter. Joshua snatched his pen from him and Nathaniel turned to him.

"Finally I have your attention" Joshua said.

"Then what's next?"

"Nath? What's going on?"Joshua asked.

"I'm going to count to five,if you don't give me that pen I am going to punch you"

Joshua saw the seriousness on his face and handed him his pen back. The latter collected it without a word.

"It was just two days and you guys already fought" John said.

Semiloore smiled at Jerry "Thanks for the sneakers"

"You are welcome...."

Semiloore found her seat after and as she turned to Maria, Tara walked into the class clapping her hands together.

"What are you doing here?" Rolake asked her.

"I didn't come for you today so don't annoy me" Tara said.

"For me?" Rolake asked.

"Yes. I'll deal with you some other time"

"Huff" Rolake said crossing her hands.

"You know you shouldn't be here" Maria started.

"Why not?" Tara asked.

"The last time I checked you got embarrassed I guess you came for another load of shit"

Tara clenched her fingers "I'm in a good mood today not gonna work"

"That's pretty much obvious"

"Hey,Semiloore no words to say to me today?" Tara asked.

"I'm not that bored to start having a conversation with you"

Everyone burst into laughter. "You!" Tara screeched as she stomped her foot on the ground.

"I know why you are here. Why you had to leave Hicol Lag" she said with a smile on her face.

"So?"

"Huh?"

"What about it?" Semiloore asked.

"Everyone should know right?" Tara asked smugly.

"Your choice" Semiloore replied shrugging.

Tara's face showed disbelief "You won't beg me not to tell them"

"Why should I do that? Why would I descend so low to beg you on such a stupid matter?" Semiloore asked.

"Yesterday, some people heard, some people watched your classmates say stuffs about you in summary they all hold you in high esteem. Upon getting home yesterday, on every social network it was you guys I mean what the hell?"

"So this is all about you being jealous? Seriously Tara? I thought you had dignity more than this" Daniel said.

"I'm not jealous! So I found out why you left Hicol Lag from someone. I was shocked as well" Tara replied.

"Why she left Hicol Lag?"

"Of course" Tara said.

"We are all ears"

"She was expelled" Tara said a smug look on her face.

"Huh?"
