Angel

Noticing that his warm smile had disappeared, replaced by a stern look, he tried hiding his overtly obvious anger behind a fake grin. Still fixing his gaze on Angel, she slowly sat down on her bed.

What could be so urgent that the cutest boy in my class had to find his way to my house or was it just an excuse. Crazy thoughts ran through her head as she repositioned herself several times still waiting for him to break the awkward silence that has built up in the room.

"It's  about your plans Angel" he tried normalizing the tensed atmosphere with a smile that seemed like it came from his heart. Angel's widened eye narrowed down as she became a bit clam. She knew she had done something wrong, it wasn't too hard to figure it out. Chris had some kind of mentality that she owned him an explanation for every step she wanted to make. For every action made by Angel it was sure damn certain that Chris knew about it.

Both have been very close friends since their first year in school. They went to class together, he visited her in her hostel, they were there for each other just as normal best friends would. Tho there had always been awkward moments, glances stolen in class, awkward stares from course mates, that didn't stop them from being good friends. But for sometime now they had grown apart.

   It was normal, Angel had expected that, after all he was the cutest guy in class. Talking to him was enough to be satisfied with. He eventually got a girlfriend and she didn't like the idea of Angel being around. So that was the beginning of their separation. But now, he was in her house. That was some game changer Angel had hoped.

"Am sorry Chris. I wanted to tell you but I haven't  had the time. I have been so busy trying to get everything in place before I make it public" her eyes soften, she held on to Chris's eyes. A warm feeling ran through her spine, her cheeks flushed as she turned her eyes away, looking for something else to look at.

Chris noticed, he smiled and ran his hand through his hair. He was a bit calmer now. Being a calm, cool and collected guy, he was hardly ever seen angry, he always walked away from awkward situations. One of the reasons Angel admired him, actually every girl did too.

"It's fine. I was just pissed hearing it from another person. Sam told me" he rolled his eyes at the mention of her name, you could tell that he didn't like her at all. Sam must have  added a little of her annoying samly touch to the information that made Chris that angry.

"Sam!" Angel found her feet on the ground. She didn't need anyone knowing about her plans, definitely not "Sam". The most annoying girl in class that thinks the world revolved around her simply because her father was the minister of finance. No one cared actually only a few of her goons that drooled over her, even the smell of her fart.

"How did she find out. I don't want anyone knowing and certainly not Sam. By now the whole class knows about it. And am sure she won't make it sound sweet either" Angel paced around the little space remaining in her room. It wasn't quiet spacious but she had really done a good job with the small space.

The room was painted purple, probably her favorite color. At a corner you could see her small wardrobe that magically fit in her clothes and at the opposite space was probably her kitchen cause  her  pots, plate rank and gas cooker were nicely arranged. OK back to her story.

"Hey, calm down girl. It won't be that bad. You just have to tell the whole class before she continues and it turns out to be a rumour, you know how much our class hates rumours" unconcerned about the pacing lady, he turned and throws in a slice of plantain off Angel's plate. She seemed to have forgotten her meal the second Chris arrived but who wouldn't.

"Am not ready Chris, am not even sure about this." she stole a glance at the handsome stud that just sat there nonchalantly chewing on her plantain

Such guts

Chris gave out a loud laugh and stopped almost immediately as Angel glared at him. "You are ready" he managed to say just to cover up his laugh that was so out of place.

"And how am I supposed to get the class together. Tomorrow is Friday for God's sake. We have like one class?" she guessed, counting her fingers as she muttered something to herself, probably counting the classes they were meant to have.

Chris stood and looked into her eyes." well, that I can handle" he smirked and tapped her by shoulders so to say, "you got this".

*****************************

THIRD YEAR Class was written boldly on the door that led to a  medium sized class room in Pavard University. Right at the side of the door, you could see a sign board that echoed "Do not disturb"as it was written with red ink. Inside the class, flashy students were seated, some standing and chattering in groups, you could hear certain laughter as it came at intervals from different corners of the room.

"Bia!! Who disconnected my charger" a girl thundered from a corner in the room. Probably where they usually called the charging point, mainly because that was the place the only functioning wall socket was located. And  there were more students around that area than any side of the room, each taking interval stares at their phones, to make sure it was safe.

Chris walked up to the front of the class. A few stares followed him, the stares belonging to some girls. Angel just rolled her eyes in disgust
"how shameless can some people be" well that was the least of her problem, Chris commanded attention, and that was what she needed at that moment. Absent minded, Chris made a statement and in a matter of seconds everyone was still and look up to him. It was her queue.

"well thank you Chris" she looked at him and smiled.

"Assi" a guy roared from the back, and everyone laughed. That was what some people chose to call her, she did fight against the nickname but after her fights seemed fruitless she gave in. The hall was silent again.

"well, I just wanted to make a quick announcement. I know some of you have heard already so I have come to make it official and also to seek for your supports. I, Angel Daniel will be coming out for the post of the SUG vice president..."before she could finish speaking there was an uproar in the hall. Everyone cheered, some even went to start congratulating her. The atmosphere was warm, she inhaled the joy and support she got from her course mates and smiled trying to shake the hands that made it through the crowd around her.

Her eyes searched the room, as Chris was out of sight, her eyes met Sam, she was furious, you could tell from her facial expression. Angel almost laughed but she had hands to shake.

Still searching, her eyes met Chris's and she just smiled, a smile full of emotions of gratitude. She knew with him by her side, she was unstoppable. Chris smiled right back.
